    Farewell Zed - The End of an Era

    Over the weekend I said goodbye the "Poppy", my faithful E85. It's been an awesome three years, but it's time for a change. The new owner, a friend called Matt, took her away on Saturday. I did recommend the forum, so he might be along to say hi. Thanks for all the banter and lols along...

    Quite Urgent Wiper Problem

    Was heading down the M4 earlier when my wipers stopped working. It wasn't the "stopping at the end of the wipe a little above where they're meant to" problem that I've seen on here before. I had just used the washer and they wiped but didn't stop for ages, wouldn't change speed and then...

    Near-Side Mirror Glass Fell Out!

    I was driving last night and heard a crash as I was coming out of a roadabout, the mirror glass had fallen out of my near-side wing mirror! As it was dark and wet on a main road, I didn't bother looking for the debris, as I heard it smash on the road. The wing mirror now looks like this...

    An Epiphany - Why I Love My Zed

    As some of you may have seen, I tried to sell my Zed this summer, preceding a temporary jaunt abroad with work. I didn't manage to sell the car, and do you know what? I'm glad! I've decided to keep her and will be back in the UK in a couple of weeks for a fortnight and am thoroughly looking...

    Comedy Subaru eBay Advert

    Not connected to me, but it did make me chuckle. I've seen better versions of the "This car is rubbish, don't buy it" advert style, but I thought I'd share it nevertheless: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251257642501?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619 :rofl:

    Help Diagnosing Yellow Engine Light - Berkshire Area

    Hi all, My yellow engine warning light came on this morning. Car seems to be running fine though, no rough idling or spluttering which leads me to believe (after a short internet search) it's a Lambda Sensor that's failed/failing. Does anyone have a fault code reader in the Berkshire area...

    Goodwood Breakfast Club - October 7th - Soft Top Sunday

    A spin off the Berkshire meet thread, Flimper suggested the Goodwood Breakfast Club as a good idea for a meet, so I thought it best to create a thread to consolidate the names of those attending the above event, rather than clutter the Berkshire meet thread Details as follows...

    Service Overdue?

    So my car has beeped at me telling me its due a distance-based service, and its booked in with BMW on Tuesday. However, I want to use it this weekend. This is probably a REALLY nooby question, but how many miles can I get away with? Does it matter if I don't get it serviced right away and do...
