Bit childish mate. We all know what I'm on about...

The garage have that car back in today and they've said it's the drum stick between the steering rack and the trackrod end and that he's been quoted £26.80 for parts. Sound correct?

Might sound silly, from where?

He said he has proof of belts being changed 6K miles ago, that wasn't a problem. It's just these other factors.

I've just text the guy saying it's an expensive fix, is he going to knock some money off and his reply is; "it's not the ball joint because I bought one for about £8 and had to take it back because it was play in the end of the steering arm or something. I got quoted £80 for parts to have it...

So, found a nice 197 - I've asked the seller to be straight out honest with any problems. Small dent (fine!) He's also said condensation in headlight due to a bulb being changed and the rubber not being put back on correctly and it's now correct and should dry out. Two other faults, last MOT...

Just noticed the 2.0 badges on it, creased. So if a Peugeot 107 spots you at the lights and leaves you behind.. Christ.

How do you drive, honestly? Are you always planting your foot? Loads of city driving etc?

Nice one Steve, appreciated. Yeah my budget at the minute is around 5-6k, 1k for insurance and then a few hundred for the nik naks. Do you have any in at the minute?

What did you end up buying instead? And whats the problem with the manifolds? Lowest milage I've seen second hand! Especially for that age! Shame I don't like red!

The car in question ended up selling but I appreciate all the replies - learnt something new. (Crash it to test the airbags :rasp:)

Ah fair! I'm looking at the 07/08 kind of mark. I've read about the gearbox problem/recall etc so trying to avoid that.

Nice one guys! Yea Dan, I've heard they love a drink! Is it in excess of literally seeing the needle move before your eyes!?

Hi guys, Look at a couple of 197's this week and debating buying one. If you own one, could you tell me your own personal pros and cons to the vehicle? Is there anything in particular to look for when viewing the cars? Common defects etc? Cheers

Cheers guys! Going to have a look through this evening!

Hi guys - whenever my car is parked overnight and it's been raining heavily, I'll wake up in the morning and leave for work. Stupid amounts of water comes pouring through the interior light, mainly when I break slightly harder, turn quite sharp or accelerate quick. Any ideas what this may be...

Definitely mate! Noticed that. Why is it so much cheaper though? Just because insurance won't pay the full value? I wouldn't have thought that would affect it too much!

What do you mean by the last part? Haha

Cheers Daniel, appreciate your answer.

Hi guys. Found a 197 on eBay, States it had bodywork done in 2011 and is registered a Cat D on vcar. Might be a silly question but what does this affect? I understand what a Cat D is but because of this history, will it up my insurance etc? Cheers

Hi all, Was just wondering about an issue regarding mailing lists/newsletters. Basically, we want to send newsletters to 250,000 customers, twice a day. We currently use Emarsys to do this but they don't allow you to use data you have bought. What is the best way to go about this? ie; Does...

I checked all the font sites, wouldn't detect it. Ben, I'm just using GIMP to do a couple of banners. Worked it all out now. Cheers though mate, appreciated.

Kerned? As in custom spacing between?

You can see HTML font face tags, but this is an image not plaintext. I couldn't see any similar mate, had a look. Also searched FontSpace.

Can anyone match this exact font? I was going with "Advantage" and even "Helvetica Neue" but neither of those are as spaced as closely as this, nor are they as naturally bold. Thanks

Hey guys, thanks for all the info. Giraffe, I'm not in London at the minute, living in Windsor for a short while.

Hi guys - pretty much a complete novice with photography but would like to "start" learning it. Would need to buy a SLR camera and have been recommended the budget Nikon L810. Any one have experience with one of these? Pros/Cons? Cheers.

Cheers mate - will try that.

Hi all - anyone know which fuse is for the rear number plate light? Replaced bulb but no luck. Mk2 Ph1 Alize. Thanks.
