Hello all. I noticed on Ktecs Web site they have a New Exhaust System for the 182. Looks very nice. Has anyone got one fitted on their 182?

Changing the subject slightly but does anyone else find it annoying when your lights come on when going under the smallest bridge. The car in front must think, "what a knob!!" When they come on I tend to drive with both hands on top of the wheel just incase the car in front sees that when they...

Puma Racings are Superb. My brother in law has got one that hes had since new. It feels miles quicker than what it says on paper. They look the puppies as well. And the best bit, you never see them on the road and they hardly ever come up for sale. I would buy the Puma for weekends and keep...

It was yesterday, about 19:40, along Harwood road in Horsham

Id contact Watchdog. If this has happened to more than your car it is very worrying. They may want to investigate it further.

Just for your info, Tesco insurance is actually Direct Line. Who ive been insured with for the last 7 years. Pretty cheap now as ive got maximum no claims discount. Oh and im 30!!:(

Ive been brought up to clean my car myself!! My old man takes about 5 hours to clean his Car every sunday (as long as it aint doing the cats and dogs thing). So Ive taken a leaf out of his book and try to do the same (weather and hangover permitting).Ive even been known to take the wheels off...
