Mine's called Clarence Clio. I named my instructor's car Bertie Clio... :)

I brought my car, and the place said they'd get the MOT done ready for me.. They do the MOT, fine. I take it to a garage to get something completely unrelated sorted out, and the guy points out one MOT failure on it straight away. And the car was still as I brought it from the garage. But its...

what does "UCH" mean? :S

Occasionally I can just be driving along, but notice that my rear windscreen wiper is on.. After sitting, confused, looking at my stalk controls, I'm still none the wiser as, as far as the stalk controls go there is no reason as to why it should be on. Does anyone have any ideas as to why my...

Not that I'm a total r****d, but how would I go about checking that...

I'm not looking at it whilst driving, I did it when I was stopped. Cuz I was sat there seeing if I could get it in to 5th gear. :) 61 thousand and something...

When I put my car into 3rd gear, it looks like it is in 5th gear, and it really doesn't like going into 5th gear. I'm guessing that this isn't normal, as it wasn't doing it up until a few weeks ago. Is this likely to be a problem with my gearbox or... :S And it is likely to be expensive to...

Clarence Clio. :)

saw this morning about half 8 ish... by the viaduct, about to go round the island think the number plate started with a B... just wondered if it was anyone off here, cuz i thought i saw a sticker in its back window... *shrugs*

I've jsut got one on the passenger side, but when you actually look at it, it really looks like someone just bodged it on... I tried using my key in it, but it didn't do anything, the key wouldn't even turn.. (Not sure if thats normal, wouldn't think it was..)

thats alotta stuff.. beats my sponge, bucket, someone elses shampoo...

He did the tracking, and something to the steering, but as whenever my mother gets the phone first, you only get about a tenth of the actual information, so I don't know what exactly it was that needed doing to the steering. The wrongly facing tire, that was on the back passenger side, has now...

Maybe I should add that I know absolutely nothing about cars... Took me about 2 days to find the stupid oil dipstick thingie... Lol.

The only problem is persuading my mother of doing that. (Since I've passed my test and been drving its like I've gone back to being 8 and she feels the need to interfere and tell my what to do with my car.)

Even though its not really its fault.. Took it to the garage today, and after a guy spending an hour in it, he came to the conclusion that... Its tracking was out slightly. There was something that needed doing to the steering. A tire had been put on backwards by the last person to put a tire on...

doing what?

Its fine going forwards, just backwards it doesn't like, so unless I drive down a whole road backwards... Lol. And I never claimed my tracking was out, I was merely asking if there was anything that could be causing it to go to the left. Cuz out of three cars that park on my drive every day...

Oh yay... Why are cars never simple?! :(

Would I just go to any garage for this? And any idea how much it's likely to cost...?

I've only been actually driving my car since last tuesday, but on the rare occasion I reverse up my drive, I end up in the hedge, even though my steering wheel is straight, so technically I should be going straight... I let someone else try reversing it up, incase it was just me being stupid and...

My mother complains if i go anywhere near over 40. Even if the limit is 60.

can't blame someone for trying... :)

not wanting to be majorly cheeky... but is there any chance i could possibly, maybe have a newzbin invite as well...

not to interrupt the whole everyone's own opinion debate, etc... but that car is 'not my cup of tea'... so to speak...

whoever had my car before me needed some of those...

the scratches that are completely my fault... :( the stone chips... that the previous owner made my front seatbelts not the silvery-white color their meant to be but brown :( that the wheels look like someone just drove it straight along the curb for god knows how long... that its black and...

it could be a problem with the keypad... mine decided to mess up the other night, and it kept pressing the middle button by itself (resulting in a lot of blank texts being sent) and it made it virtually impossible for me to lock or turn it off. i, like you tried updating the software, with no...

Hey.. I'm new (incase that wasn't obvious..) I've just got a black '04 dynamique 1.6 16v :) (although I haven't quite passed my test yet so its just sat on the drive.. :( ) Dont have any good pics of it, just the one from when i brought it...
