    Have sat navs killed drivers navigation skills

    Mine is usually on but that's because it's hardwired in and left in the glovebox, it comes straight on with the ignition and I can hear the camera warning beeps from the drivers seat. On long haul trips or going to somewhere I'm not sure of I use it. The Mrs uses it whenever she goes anywhere...

    Fixed my squeaky steering

    Had the car out a few times today, no rain just hot sunshine, and no creaking or seeking. Got to check the brake pads tomorrow as I'm getting a 'warbling' sound from them so will have a look while the wheel is off and post any findings.

    Were cars more fun 20 years ago

    exactly, if the engine fan wasnt working, pop the wires off and join them together so its on all the time.

    dog smell

    apparently sprinkling bicarb of soda ovet the carpets and leaving it overnight then hoovering it up next day sorts it out. I cant guarantee it as i havent tried it but i asked someone as my car is also a dog vehicle, above is what they suggested and others backed it up

    Being noticed in your car

    i tend to stay in the background with my 'standard family estate', right up until i get a silly little boy racer revving his 1.0 with a bigbore exhaust at traffic lights next to me. My exhaust system is standard at the moment so still quiet, i only get noise if i floor it from the performance...

    Modding Newbie here - Where do I start?

    agree with tcjboldie, air intake and exhaust system to start, then have it rolling roaded. Wouldnt bother with an induction kit on a small engine, instead go for a performance high flow panel filter, if u want the induction noise dobthe old trick of drilling a few holes underneath the airbox. I...

    Fixed my squeaky steering

    got told last night on another forum that this may be the exact problem with mine, tends to be noisy from the left wheel/strut/spring when going slow or parked then applying full lock to the left, mine is a creaky/squeeky noise

    How to scare your passengers

    overtaking on what looks like a blind road to a passenger and mumbling 'ah sh1t'. Gets my mrs everytime lol.

    How do you feel about letting other people drive your car?

    the mrs drives mine for work, but only until she gets another smaller car. Shes not quite used to the size of mine yet but never floors it and rarely goes above 2000-2500 rpm in any gear.

    Court upholds private parking ticket

    ask to see the evidence photographs, if there is no warning board in the photos or theyre not time and date stamped then the fine is non enforcable

    Are you usually late or do you get there in good time

    better to be two hours early than two minutes late....

    Suggest a car for a security company

    i work in that industry and 99% of the time we use range rover vogues but it does depend on the job and if youre in a quiet or hostile environment. In hostile environments we use other armoured 4x4s, also depends if you are are armed, size of the convoy, principles comfort and preference etc...
