    Private registration plates

    sally came with K15AWA which i'm guessing is some cheapskates version of AXA or 4x4. Dean has DS51 FOX on retention, he's had that since it first came out, before he married me, so had more money than sense. we had H17CPC and H16CPC as a pair on our mondeo ghia and scorpio as advertising things...

    Freelander Bio??

    Hi i actually know a fair bit about bio diesel as my husband works for haulage firms and used to make it. the first thing to consider is whether the car is under any warranty. if so you need to check with whoever provides that cover. if as above it says don't do it, then don't. if it's not, and...

    Child Seats

    you should have enough space. graco car seats come with booklets that tell you which cars and which seats you can use them in... if they are tiny ones in rear facing carseats ones with bases are ideal and can be used with either lap or diagonal and lap belt config. britax do a forward facing...

    proof for insurance

    can not believe you'd lie to insurance. discount is a bonus not a given. if you can't afford to insure it, don't buy it.......:frusty:
