    Auto Climate Control, Problem Blowing Cold Air

    Is this your first car? Your heater won't blow warm air until the water in the cooling system has warmed up a bit, oh and oil burners usually take a little longer to warm up than petrol versions.

    Anybody knowmuch about Mk3 Golf GTi's?

    We had a MKIII 16v from new in 97 to selling it last year for £1250, it was still in fantastic condition considering it was 10 years old. We had a couple of problems in the 10 years and 90k miles that it covered, like the crank position sensor at £90 which stopped the car dead, the...

    Have you owned an Open Top Car?

    Modern convertibles are much better than of old, no more wind noise than a tintop and just as warm in winter too. It is suprising how often you can get the roof down too (sold ours last year though).

    Would You Buy In The Current Housing Market ?

    We bought our first house just after the start of the last slump (in 1990). It started off at 78,000 was reduced to 72,000 and we offered 66,000 (which was grudgingly accepted). We were in negative equity for a few years and if we had waited we could have saved an extra 10% but we still...

    replacement for a Puma

    Sorry for the delay in replying been busy at work so not had a chance to get around all of the forums I usually frequent. I think we may have crossed paths on another forum (have you changed the rear tyres yet?) ;) I think you should drive a couple of Boxsters (for comparison purposes) and...

    replacement for a Puma

    You should get out and drive your choice of cars, we had a Boxster S for 2 years buying it new in 2005, from a driving point of view I don't think it gets much better (Cayman probably is slightly). In Porsche terms I think they are a bargain but you have to remember that they are £40k+ motors...

    I think I've been cheated!

    Whilst leagally they look to be in the clear their behaviour is unethical and I suspect not the business model that any decent company would want to be involved with.

    They look like a bargain to me, shame one of the pictures is of a Boxster S with real Brembos fitted :)

    Got stopped by the police - Funny!

    I saw 2 guys drinking that on their morning teabreak and on first viewing it looked like alcohol. There was a woman who got done a year or so ago for eating an apple while driving, re drinking, makes you wonder why the fit cup-holders in cars.

    I think I've been cheated!

    I think you are too shy/reserved to sort this out, looks like you are going to have to stand the loss.

    I think I've been cheated!

    My wife was stiffed for 2k when she changed jobs a couple of years ago, £70 for some legal advice and a letter in the post to said employer saw a cheque hitting the doormat post haste :)
