    Best extended warranty option

    I would purchase it for piece of mind. I mean if you divide £377 by 12 months it breaks it down to £31.41 per month so like alot of people said on here it can give u piece of mind. Touch wood you won't need it but you never know with cars. In regards to the gearbox oil I changed mine and it...

    Much needed advice please!!

    Yeah you do get some cowboy garages who are just picking at things to try and boost their profits rather than good honest advice on what actually NEEDS doing and what DOESN'T need repairing. At the end of the day businesses can't afford to get a bad name for themselves in this economy as they...

    Corsa VXR to Clio 197/200

    Reverse lights not working???

    I've pulled off the switch and cause it's a 3pin switch I couldn't bridge it with a paperclip to test it so I used a volt meter but tht acted up but my mate and I taking into consideration how little milleage I do and how well it's maintained it's most likely the switch so i'll purchase a new...
