I have looked at many and there was a really tidy 200 for £500. Kicking myself now as I snubbed it because I wanted the updated appearance of the 300! I'll explain this to the wife... NOT!

Lol. I'd rather be out there investigating the issues known to Disco's. Mustn't grumble like, the vectra has been going for 2 years now and it has cost less than £500, including it's purchase. Just annoys me... Devon has ground to a halt becasue of a fluttering of snow, devonian car has done the...

Following advice, I've spent ages waiting for the right Disco for me. Been to see a few and come away wondering if my expectations are too high... Anyhow, today we took little one to school in the wifes Vectra, negotiating the unheard of snow in Paignton when all hell broke loose. Now I have a...

That valuable prize being a more economical and practical towing vehicle?

Mind, I can talk. The average age down here is 72, so brown nylon trousers and yellow shirts are 'normal attire' Your dayglo pink shell suit, doesn't have some aqua marine blue sections on it does it? God, I remember them lol.

Last time I was in wantage, shell suits were still the rage. Just a thought! I had a similar problem with my Vectra and it was the earth point for the alternator. Never occured that it was on an ally bracket lol.

Isn't this a symptom of oil getting into the wiring loom from the top end and affecting the ECU?

Have to say, it has got a bit foggy here tonight. Needless to say, I saw bugger all front or rear foglights but loads of sidelights!

There was a 98(S) 3 door in torquay last week, £1500. Very nice shiny red one, just like pats van! I was tempted but hanging on for a 5 door. Had a 3 door some years ago and it was ok. Kids make it a pain with a 3 door as it appears the doors are not any longer.

Phone companies are blatant arseholes. Which ever way you go, unless you are 100% sure and documented that they are in the wrong, they'll **** on you from a great height unless you pay off the outstanding contract. I have 3 contracts with O2 and not had a days bother, it's purely luck of the...

240v 150w microbore rigid pressure washer on board for post off road cleansing? I'm sure there has to be a completely logical reason behind the install...?

The thing going through my mind is... Do these lights temporarily blind other road users then, hence they can only come on when cornering because if not then why don't they have them illuminated with the headlights and give this extra vision full time. On the other hand though, if they are a...

:wtf: Plain ridiculous!

As far as I remember, they are the volume up, volume down, front fog lights and interior light switches, not that it really makes any difference if you are going to use them for your auxiliary lights?

It's all going to end in tears you know! About 10 years ago the whole BMW thing came to a head when so many had been through the company car market the values crashed and muppets got their hands on them. Hence Hella made a fortune selling "Angel eye" headlamps and front fog lamp kits. Time...

Goons with spanners ;) As per most of the other posts on here, aside all the usual stuff the mot covers (brakes, suspension and steering) rust is the killer!

The other novice reply from me is... You did grease the new CV up nicely? Sorrry for implications of daftness!!

Probably quite unlikely but I've experienced something similar in the past and found it to be a siezed caliper binding the inside brake pad on the disc. Just a thought!

Shortly before they combust?

Front fog lights, loud exhausts, big bassy systems and Lexus style lights are a must here. It's so bloody annoying lol. Especially when all this is fitted to a 1.0 litre Citroen Saxo! I'm currently designing an Irish snorkel that fits under the bumper and sucks up then devours all the afore...
