It may work out more cost effective for the taxpayer for Mobility to be limited to a single car manufacturer, preferably UK built. For example the Nissan Qashqai.

During ground clearance of a back garden, I have discovered a bees nest in an old compost heap. Look like bumble rather than honey bees. How best to remove? Don't want to kill them off. Cheers Doug

How long have they been in local government?

What are the regulations regarding the use of tubes in tyres? Does seem ridiculous to dispose a new tyre with only a minor puncture on its edge.

Hi All My new Xtrail has been delivered and as expected it has no spare wheel, only the tyre sealant :evil: The boot has space for a spare wheel as the hole is used by the sound system woofer which can be removed easily enough. But how do I calculate size of space saver? The Xtrail comes in...

My problem is that a new reg plate takes a few days to get updated on government/insurance systems. In that situation, insurers ask for vehicle info but AVIVA do not recognise the vehicle. Once the car gets delivered, I need to have it insured. Have raised an online complaint to AVIVA so will...

Just spent the last hour on the phone to AVIVA to transfer my insurance to a new vehicle. Current vehicle is a Nissan Xtrail 1.3 petrol New car being delivered next week is a Nissan Xtrail 1.5 MHEV 163 Tekna Xtronic so no reg plate yet. Sorry they say..........we can only see the new Xtrail 1.5...

Unfortunately the cistern li is not easily accessible as it is concealed under a bathroom worktop. Cheers Doug

Knowing she was being shown on TV, she deliberately let the tears run down her face. Most would wipe the tears before they fell. Does she have a hidden agenda?. Seeking a sympathy vote before hitting us with more taxes? Hmmmm :unsure::unsure:

I have a junior engineer's task book, whose first entry dated 1974 by my Divisional Officer states........."Buck Up". :LOL:

Proud to have served :cool:

There will be a rush of early retirements by those in positions of responsibility now a formal inquiry has been called. Unfortunately it will take several years before they are found out. :evil:

Thanks pcaouolte, that sounds very reassuring :)

In a situation where traffic is managed by police/highway patrols, how does a driverless car respond to hand signals directing traffic to follow what is normally 'the wrong way' ie temporary routes using the oncoming lanes on motorways etc. How does a driverless car react to a HGV driver...

Hi All I have been avoiding diesel cars as I do not drive a lot of miles which would be problematic for the diesel engine's DPF particle filter which requires regular burning off. I have now been advised that my new lease petrol vehicle a 2025, 1.5 MHEV 163 Tekna 5dr [7 Seat] Xtronic has a PPF...
