Was driving on the M4 yesterday to work in the middle lane when the car in front swerved into the outside lane, I didn't know what he was doing but he was dodging what looked like a pot of some sort in the middle lane about 2ft high x 3ft wide, I saw it way to late to avoid it and hit it dead on...

Took out a 197 on Sat, I think I expected to much as I wasn’t that impressed. I found the car 2 light on the wheels/steering and I couldn't feel the road the same as the 172/182. The raw feel of the drive/hardness seems to have been taken away for my liking...Still shifts tho and I found it was...

Ok, took my car to a garage (Turner Brothers/Pontadawe) have the timing belt changed this morning, they just phoned me now to say they've gone as far as they can and they cant do it as it needs 'speacial tools' which I did mention before hand. They did quote me £305+VAT. So I've just called...

I know it's not a Clio but my mates gear box went in his Vauxhall 1.8 SRI 02plate last night, he said he managed to drive it home in 4th gear for a mile with the clutch burning like a b**ch, which wasn't the best of ideas. Would anyone know roughly how much that would be to sort? £££ I bet!

Long RANT! On the w/e went up to Cheltenham to visit a mate, so drove from good old Wales on a glorious day. On the way there my girlfriend was in a funny sort of mood and decided to pretend to spit her chewing gum at my head!? ok, by accident I hope it just popped out of her mouth flew...

Lovely had an iPOD for Christmas, popped to Halfords yesterday to have it fitted but they wanted £99 to connect it up! Is this right? I didn't have it done, is there another way or does anyone know how to do it? I'm running an Alpine unit, my mate has the same one with his connected up but he...
