  4. I hate the chicanes too.. i have had right abuse from idiots on them, you arrive at the chicane first, no one there, as soon as you move out around the chicane some idiot speeds round the corner and giving you the hand signals because you are in his right of way.. stupid idea. Should be first at the chicane has right of way
  5. Cost of food in service stations is crazy… Although burger kig and maccy D’s seems quite reasonable compared to the sit in restuarant meals on offer! Do any of you guys just buy the Maccy D’s stuff?
  6. Something has to be done about traffic humps? Has anyone had any problems with their tyres or suspension? Some of these are really dangerous or annoying for homeowners living near one. I used to live near a speed hump and got fed up with hearing cars going over these and cars undersides being scraped. The whole neighbourhood is plagued with the !Removed! things!
  7. my missus is like dont give a hoot about cars, but gets upset when i dont let her know what i am choosing. If i said I am gonna buy a fiesta she says No... anything posh she says yes But her claim is that a car is to get from A to B... but she doesnt stress how she wants to get from A to B
  8. Would you let your partner choose your next car for you? Does your partner have an influence on your next buy? Apparently according to figures, 60 percent of partners have an influence on next car purchases in the family
  9. Just imagine this, you have just won the lottery, 10 million. What car are you going to buy? What car for your wife? And the rest of the family? I would be buying a big enough garage to fit all my dream cars in LOL, then maybe buy the wife a dress LOL
  10. What is the most common problem with your car? Are there certain common problems with your car model that you have experienced?

  15. never put anything in apart from good quality oil on a regular basis.. period. I did once have a honda prelude that i never serviced for years.. one winter the oil froze and a big clump of it broke off and clogged the engine and the engine knocked... my uncle added an additive that broke all the sludge down which fixed the issue. always fresh quality oil from that point

  20. welcome to the BMW Owners Club mate
  21. for those who never took a theory test.. could you pass it?
  22. Annual MoT tests could be a thing of the past, despite fears of an increased number of deaths and injuries, if a Government plan comes into force. Under the new plan, new cars would need an MoT after four years; cars under ten years would only need an MoT every two years, with only vehicles over 10-years-old needing an annual check. However, a study commissioned by the government appears to undermine this plan, saying that the move would be 'likely to have adverse road safety consequences.' Vehicle defects account for three per cent of road accidents according to The Transport Research Laboratory, with motoring groups fearing that biannual checks will cause an extra 55 deaths on British roads every year. With over 23 million MoT tests taking place each year, garages have also condemned this proposal, claiming jobs will be lost as repair work to get vehicles through the test will fall off. Despite all the arguments against, apparently the Department for Transport is still keen to push ahead with these changes. source: http://uk.autoblog.com/2011/08/23/government-to-relax-mot-rules-despite-concerns/
  23. If you had to take your driving test again do you think you would pass it? What bad habits have you picked up since you passed your test?
  24. Has anyone ever driven a very dangerous road? Mountain range, rickety bridge etc? What is the most scariest place you have driven?
