I'd love to have a 2CV and one of those vans. They're collectors items now though.

Post: RE: Mazzini tyres
I've bought tyres from mytyres.co.uk recently. Not fitted obviously but I've found them competitively priced and resonably quick delivery. Best deal Avon Z5 at £38 a corner. Mind you I only had them o...

Nail the accelerator to the floor. They're so slow that the occasional touch on the brake will keep you at a constant speed

As it's not economic to repair my Bingo we're looking for a replacement. I've seen a few Xsara Picassos two are automatic. How good are the auto boxes and how long do they last? £700 to repair my eng...

By my reckoning you have about another 160Kg of weight to play with assuming 600Kg payload maximum.

Thanks Ron. The tyre inflation label on the door pillar quotes tyres up to 185 or thereabouts for her engine so it should be ok. I'm waiting on the garage to tell me how much before I decide what to d...

Post: Tyre Question
Assuming I'm going to have to scrap my Berlingo, the tyres are virtually new. The back ones have only done about 300 miles. So.... my wife's Skoda has 165/70R14 tyres, mine has 175/70R14. Do you think...

I'm not necessarily blaming the garage as I said earlier. They did change the belt about 11 months ago and definitely over tightened one of the belts. Which one I can't say. It made a whirring noise b...

Post: RE: sloppy gearbox
What's block changing? Are you sure all the linkages are OK? I've had the banjo style links fail. They can go a bit sloppy. Cheap to buy and easy to replace.

I did turn the engine over and it just spun with no resistance. No compression. Doesn't look good. Any idea why they sheer? Could it be the garage's fault? Not that I particularly want to blame anyone...
