    Digital SLR Cameras?

    Hi mate, I'm in the same boat now. I'm trying to decide between the Nikon D60, Olympus E420 and Sony A200, although the samsung camera mentioned peviously looks good and a bargain for the money. I have found decent reviews here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhqGAZ5g60s

    Camera advice needed DLSR, Bridge or Compact

    I know it sounds as stupid question, because immediately everyone will say DSLR. I am after a new camera, maintly for when the mrs and I go to Florida on our honeymoon in September. We have tickets for Sea World, the Disney parks and Universal Studios and want to make sure we come back with...

    knackered Headlight adjuster

    Hi, I have a problem with the headlight aim. It is too low. The auto adjuster is as high as it will go, I then used the manual adjuster under the bonnet, but only one of them will freely adjust the other will adjust up a tad and then click and fall back down. The headlights have been swapped...

    My New Car

    Already bought a new tyre, the garage I got the car from has a great website, but the actual premises are a portacabin and a fence! There is no way I am ever going back there and just hope the Hyundai garage will do the water bottle under the 5 year warranty. If not they can sod off with the 50k...

    My New Car

    Picked it up yesterday, lovely drive back from Luton apart from the fact that one of the tires had a chunk in the tire wall and needed replacing, had to pump up at a petrol station from 9 psi to 35 and luckily it stayed up until we got back so I could buy a new one. As we were driving back I...

    HELP!!!

    right bought a replacement, that was the same size 15mm pipe, but the bit it connects to is very short. I could push this over, but every time I tightened the clip, the filter pops off. I tried to glue on with super glue with an activator spray and today it fell off whilst driving and I've lost...

    My New Car

    Nah, I wanted an auto again and as renault's quickest auto Clio is the 1.6 16v which in all honesty is only a mild improvement on what I had, I had to look elsewhere. I do like the 172/182's and I hope one day my fiancee will like driving my CLio so much she decides to get one. I initially...

    My New Car

    Yeah it is meant to sound very nice!! It will stay standard bar the indicator bulbs! It literally has electric everything and is defo an upgrade on the Clio, totally agree regarding the power from the engine, but due to it being a fuel guzzler I won't be driving around like Lewis...

    My New Car

    According to guys on here with 172's/182's not very well!!! Its obviously a massive upgrade on mine. 0-60 is 8 something and 135 top speed

    My New Car

    After it was inspected by my fiancee's cousin and found to be in mint condition, with the exception of the front pads and discs, (which the dealer is replacing before I pick it up) I put down a deposit on it today. Its a Hyundai Coupe V6. Millions of extras, full leather...

    HELP!!!

    ha ha,, no you are not, It is the only photo that even vaguely showed it. It is right in the top left, It's a silver topped purple/red(ish) filter that appears to go into the air flow meter, although I could be totally wrong about that. If you see the pic at the top where the wires split before...

    HELP!!!

    Does anyone know what the small filter is that you can see just at the top left of the pic below?? What does it do and does it do harm not having one. I had my suspension changed today. When the garage took the car for a test drive he said he heard something fall off and then he drove...

    from 40mm to 60mm, should i do it?

    Just standard sized humps for the South West. Splitter was the standard Rubber Clio splitter, has been replaced with the Meggy one now and that keeps on getting scuffed, should stay on until I can get the standard suspension put back on, hopefully next week. As Frosty said it may be due to the...

    from 40mm to 60mm, should i do it?

    Sorry, have to disagree. 60mm is too low on the majority of roads, ramps in multistorey car parks, speed bumps etc. My sills are a testament to that. If it was not to low then why would I lose the standard splitter and have multiple dents in the sills where the car lands down on speed humps...

    from 40mm to 60mm, should i do it?

    Don't do it. I have 60mm, but wish I had got 40mm instead. It's too low and every speed hump is a major obsticle that wants to rip off your splitter. Just stay with 40mm. Trust me!!

    snow crash updates

    Driving this morning was a nightmare, I left the house at 7.40 to drop my girlfriend off in Bournemouth and then I came back to Poole for my work, I got to work at 10. That must have been a total of 10 miles. I skidded about 4 times, was lucky not to hit the kurb, on several occasions, almost...

    Just had a letter from Renault.................

    I had one of these too, which I had to pick up form post office, they did send me one a few years ago, but I ignored it. Never had a problem and I am capable of putting some WD40 on it when I fill the water bottle. I'm giving the Clio to my other half shortly so will get it done to make her feel...

    will the dynamique (sport) springs/shocks fit a mk2 ph1 1.4 16v?

    Hi, My parents have a 1.2 16v (02 plate) Dynamique, theirs is the sport version with the uprated suspension. Does anyonw know if the shocks/springs from this will fit a 01 (X) mk2 ph1 clio? I am giving my car to my girlfriend and the 60mm lowering kit I have has to go, it is far too hard and...

    new colt ralliart

    Preferred the older one, they just needed to do a fast version of that. I used to have the imported version before the Clio, was a reliable car.

    Putting suspension back to standard

    Does anyone know how much this would be likely to cost? Does anybody know how much the standard shocks and springs are for a 2001 1.4 16v Clio Alize? It looks likely I'll pass the Clio off to my mrs and I'll get a Hyundai Coupe, she likes the car, but hates the fact it is so stiff and low:o...
