I just eyeball the road car

Yep Vosa don't have the knackers to enforce it as you would have to prove they were likely to fail imminently It may change to a fail in the future

Buses now get advised to change tyres at 10 years old on their MOT because of that.

That ^^^^^

The tow cars unladen weight must exceed the gross weight of the trailer and the maximum allowable mass of the tow car and trailer must not exceed 3500kg eg. Audi A6 unladen 1450kg Audi A6 max laden weight 2080kg gives you a max trailer gvw of 1420kg ( get a 1500kg trailer and get the...

I must have viewed 30 cars over the years in Bradford and Huddersfield, Walked away from every one. Might get lucky though Bro and find that Magic 1%

Is it a dealer ?

From my experiences 99% of vehicles in Huddersfield are f@*ked, stolen, on finance, or on the police drug list

grill pushes inwards towards the radiator and has two plastic clips attaching it to the slam panel and the slam panel is held on with 4 x 13mm headed bolts on the top and 2 further bolts down in front of the rad bolting it to the back of the front bumper cross member

remove the grill and slam panel for a better look, if your using a 12point socket try a 6 point if that doesn't work tap a smaller size socket on to the nut

wtf do you know you sold the best Volvo ever made twice ?

Prices have gone silly in the past 5 - 10 years, I used to pay £500 for excellent condition 940 turbos before they were ''scene'', but basically Anything with a turbo and in good condition for the old 700 or 900 series Anything not rotten in the old 200 series Anything with 5 or more cylinders...

If it’s a clarion radio there are 2 types of code, some you can get off the internet for a couple of quid and some you need to go to the dealer with your logbook

What are the odds that the black piece of plastic in that picture is missing (feeds oil to the 5th gear )

"Reconditioned" is a loose term they normally just replace the part that failed.

Just take the end cover plate off the box, you can replace the 5th gear synchro ( and the gear ) with the box still in the car

It’s on scumtree and about ten minutes from me, considered viewing but £500 more than what I’d want to pay

Screwed on several counts with the current setup, Engine light on = fail No cat = fail Won’t meet emissions = fail Probably too loud = fail Get yourself on eBay or put a wanted ad up on here for a full system

Considering a cheap tt for winter and chucking some snow tyres on it, amazing car when you think you can pick up a rough one for a bag of sand.

I have the issue where they fitted those ohlins, IIRC it was all done at Wheels in Motion and cost a fortune

Has craigs hand recovered from the last time you wanted it turning up ?

Looks a pass to me, where do you want the cert sending?

Horses for courses really, I use 2 stoke in my old smokers but not in the new 330d (warranty so not bothered) Lucas pumps will last longer with 2 stoke added as their internals are made from chocolate, Bosch VE and inline pumps don't give a s**t and will happily pump mucky sludge all day long...

Not much chance of getting pulled by the local fuzz though and Vosa are non existent in your area so it's all good ?

The headlight just needs adjusting, get the tester to do it for the sake of 5 minutes of his time. Tbh the fact that both are pointing that far left would suggest to me the tester didn't align the beam setter correctly in the first place. anyway just take it back and ask him to adjust it for you.

only benefit in running larger wheels is the ability to fit larger brakes but since most hillclimbs are sub 1 km the brakes don't get time to get hot anyway 15's are the best all-round on the mk2 clio.

Do you have a picture of the lower wishbone fitted the car ? I think the bushes could have been pressed in the wrong side of the wishbone and giving you zero or negative castor.

£19 for 4 Valves that cost 20p the robbing c***s!

They changed the centre bore size of rota’s most are 73.1mm But there was something like a 70mm as well so better off measuring. Clio hubs are 60.1mm

I reckon it's the bearing that the stick runs through in the turret that isn't a tight fit, I would try stripping down the lever and centre popping the instead of the turret where the bearing sits and the same area on the stick to take up any minimal play.
