...don't know if you know already, but you are supposed to open the bonnet before lifting the wipers up....basically the wipers lift up under the bonnet lid whilst it is on the support....

...there is a ren specialist in Stroud....I made contact with them but their response was very vague so didn't follow them up....if you don't mind a 90 mile drive to Exmouth, Carlton Garage are very good. Exeter is only a short train ride away so we use if for an excuse to have a day out.....I...

..I haven't taken my car to a dealer since I caught a spotty 14 year old YTS kid reversing my Clio Trophy up the car park (SJ Cook in Bristol) at 50mph reving the engine on half clutch as I walked out of the show room shortly after dropping it off.....I pretty much dragged the t*** out of my car...

....my Meg has a tendancy to kangaroo on cold also....I have noticed that sometimes under hard acceleration the revs hold off a little....I was paranoid that the clutch was slippipng but i have realised now that it is probably the traction control just adjusting the throttle to keep...

...a standard car was behind me on the auto route in France last week....even the standard car looks good in the flesh....I have been a little dissapointed with the pics, but I reckon they will look good in the flesh and the vid indicates that it is going to be a relatively stricking car to see...

....this looks like a Meg250.....but the colour was not an option, the wheels are wrong and the interior is not an RS interior....its an Irish seller so I suppose the spec could be slightly different, but something is not right with it.....could be a GT with some 250 body parts perhaps...

...love it....you can have this one for a quid... http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/peugeot/205/peugeot-205-1-6-gti-1991-j/969741

In respect of leisure type walkie-talkies, do all makes share the same channels...in other words, could you use a Binatone set to talk to a Cobra set....I think there is a standard set of 8 channels available generally, but not sure....any advise most appreciated!

...break fluid was changed at the last service in September...but I have noticed that the pads are down to 5 ish mm and there is more break travel these days.....will probably change them after next pay day!

Can anyone advise if there is a pad depth sensor on the front breaks that will trigger a warning light on the dash board. I have a meg 250, but I would assume the system is very similar on a FF Clio 197/200.....I have checked the manual and there is nothing obvious! Cheers
