I am trying to find out who owns my old car, well the number plate in particular. It is a gun metal grey, LWB, manual, TT, and the number plate is B8 XXL. If anyone owns this or knows who does can you please let me know, it is quite important. Thanks

As above :bow: :bow: :bow:

Yam the clam! :D hope you have a great day! :D xx

what do you chaps use to remove bugs off the front , now the car has got freash paint i'm looking for something thats safe to use

How does this work exactly? e.g. if you get your car de-locked and door handles removed and you have a flat batt would i have to climb through the boot to let myself in?

After selling her Silver NA Manual a few months back so she can have a more praticle car the wife has been missing it and nagging me for another ! .....so I came home with this for her on saturday.

Yesterday I discovered that run-flats are rubbish. I only drove it a mile to the nearest garage with an airline and the back end was swinging around like a pendulum :eek: I'd rather have the space-saver on. Does anyone know if these tyres are repairable, as with normal tyres, or are they one-shot jobs? Cheers Dave

As recommend by our very own Royal and Richard Hammond we're planning a Lands End to St Ives Road Run as it's one of the best routes in the UK. This will prob take place on a week day evening next month to minimise the ammount of traffic on the roads for us to go play... Everyone's welcome in whatever car and the more the merrier, if everyone could let me know what day suits them best then i'll work out details and meeting from there...

I have a cassette/radio stereo (came with the car: National RM-7400) and a separate Sony 10 disc CD changer system. The volume for the CD system is controlled through the radio/stereo. I think it is an original Japanese radio as you cannot get many stations (never been a problem as i always listen to CDs). Radio has stopped working & CD volume is stuck loud!
