    The car turns over mate, it's an ESP, ABS and service light problem. Suspect it to be frozen calipers as I've seen quite a few with the same problem occuring of the last 2 days

    Well the snow has done me no favours last night, another 5cm and -8 all night, snow is up and over both the calipers now- I think fixing the Clio can wait!

    ABS/ESP/Service lights on

    I don't think we are alone either! Saw a few Facebook posts earlier regarding the same problem. Update: with some careful driving I did manage to get mine to the top of the street. I have a feeling it's real caliper related? The hand brake is very loose when pulling it up and under braking the...

    Snow!!!

    About 4 or 5 inches has fallen here on the Notts/ Derby boarder today(on top of the snow we had yesterday). There's couple across the street from me that keep attempting to go out in the car- 4th time might be the charm for 'em.

    That would make sense I guess, seen alot of people having the same problem as me in today's snow. Guess the long wait for anything to defrost begins :(

Dug the car out this morning to go out but warning lights all over the dash have put that on...

    Finally the post I've been waiting for!! For £90 it does look pretty good, definitely better than a hole in the seat

    Recaro Retrim

    Been looking at seats and emailing companies all day for prices etc etc, it does get pretty boring, especially to say it's all to fix maybe an inch long tear, I don't personally rate the CS seats so I've drifted off and found myself looking at Recaro Pole positions, roughly the same price as a...

    Recaro Retrim

    Mine was the 14th ofDecember and I did get a reply and then I heard nothing after so I'm going to see if they call, wanting the seats done for March too. I know exactly what you mean, I'm after exactly the same but alcantara centres. I agree, the focus gets mental coloured seats too. I did...

    Recaro Retrim

    Mate I'm a big fan of the yellow they look mental!! The Wirral is a bit far for me but I'll be sure too look into them, it's worth travelling for the quality I suppose. Cheers for letting us know, I'll have a look.
