    Thorpe Park - Uncared for Blue V6 - V6 WAW

    For me signs for of car that's not looked after are bald tyres (or tyres that are way too low on pressure) and kerbed wheels.

    Thorpe Park - Uncared for Blue V6 - V6 WAW

    Why? my BMW looks a shed at times but is always looked after mechanically, like quite a few cars on here I'd imagine.

    Cost of ownership - new v used

    I've done a similar thing for our two cars. Ones a 9 year old 155,000 mile BMW 3 series and the other is a brand new abarth 500. My BM has cost me approx £170/month (servicing/depreciation/repairs/mot's/road tax etc). The abarth has cost roughly £265/month (servicing/deposit/finance/road tax)...

    Vodafone increasing line rental

    I got the same text and there was something in it saying that the rise wasn't above the rate of inflation... Just a side note, when viewing this thread does everyone else get the vodafone adverts showing in the banners....are they that clever that it's picking up that teh thread is about vodafone.

    shall i?, shant i?

    Unless there's something else to it, is it simply you like the colour of their car and they like the low milage of your car. Who's got the RB, do you know of the car (by this I mean is it a friend or is it a local car you see often).

    Clio Dimma Cosworth 4X4

    Don't think that extra DTM style spoiler was on the charlton when it left the magazine. Anyway back on topic, the dimma kits were always far superior design and quality compared to anything else about in the 90's. Then again from memory wasn't the cilo kit about £5k?

    Is it just me?

    In my car (03 plate 320d family wagon with 155,000 miles on) I park it anywhere and have piece of mind cos it's the family barge with a few knocks and scratches already so a few more won't bother me. In her car (one year old Abarth 500) I always look for an end bay and park as far away from the...

People who randomly key a car for no reason whatsoever shouldn't be allowed out with the general public. Think about what went through his mind as his was...

    Do windows ring to tell you your computer is infected.

    He did tell me to go and turn my computer on. I was alway going to hang up, just wanted to listen to a bit of his speech. Im always suspicious when someone rings claiming to be from a company that I use. I'd never give out any info to someone that's rang me, I always ring them back.
