Thanks for all the top info - she is stuck at work (on call) so hasn't made it to Halfords so thats my job for tomorrow.
The engine was off when we checked - we'd driven it to the station which is...
I thought about the warning lights too - but nothing appeared on the dash at all.
The dip stick showed no oil, and the 1 litre from the garage barely appeared.
Wife has reported that she got...
Ah - hadn’t thought about the potential damage done so far - will get it booked in to Toyota (we have a service plan, likely doesn’t cover this but worth getting it checked out).
Thanks for the...
I see Shogun has just been released - looking forward to giving that a watch asap

We haven’t seen anything odd from the exhaust but haven’t been checking - I’ll train my rear dashcam on it!
Oil was checked way way back in November and it was nice and full back then.

Hi all - looking for any advice or guidance from the car-knowledgeable on here. Had a wonderfully fun start to the day with some tapping sounds from our Toyota Verso engine. The car, it turns out,...
I'm also looking for a tracker - can't really add much to the discussion - was looking at Amazon at things like the GPSBob or some other SIM enabled device. That web site shows there's more to it -...
My wife wanted a small car and the Aygo was the one she favoured. Plus they're more expensive than the Fiestas so a comparable year was out of my budget sadly - SIL has one and its a fun little car....
:) at the poloman comment - good shout.
Sadly budget wouldn’t stretch to a nice modern one.
Always wanted a nice Golf, just short on funds! My plan, if the fiesta works out, is to drive that...
So the Focus is in the past - I'm not looking back!
I couldn't find a Toyota locally that would be suitable (I'm not a fan of the Aygo) so looked for recent Fiestas and think I've found a great...
Thanks all - yep - think the questions soundly answered. Curses - now the wife is talking about Toyota Aygos with glee.
May hold out hope for an older Fiesta with the 1.25 engine though - from...
Hi all - just looking for some advice regarding a 2015 Focus 1.5 Ecoboost I'm thinking of buying (I'm after a second car around 8-9k that is fun to drive and lets us get the children to their random...
Reviving this thread from the depths - the link is rather useful!
We've just moved house and it has pre-payment meters. We had no info on previous energy supplier so went through a load of online...
Another vote for London and Country - have used them a few times and always been impressed with the service.
I went for these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0B23XX1YN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Super lightweight, easily adjustable to my wrist so it's not too tight, and the way...
I've just got my 6X and its awesome - super light - with a velcro strap on, it's lighter than the steel apple watch thats languishing in a drawer somewhere.
zelig - I recognise that watch face -...
I'm also using an old iPad for Zwift with an ancient iphone on the bike for the Companion app, then some cheap heart rate monitor - hasnt missed a beat! :) then have a slightly newer iPad linked to...
A big vote for the rugged cases from me! We've bought them for our children, along with screen protectors and the iPad has survived (so far).
Once you've got the iPad, next thing is to look into...
Do you need to pay any stamp duty or other fees, or recalculate mortgage affordability, or is it simply working with your mortgage provider to update the deeds and mortgage "owner"? (asking for a...
Disaster has struck and my darling wife has smugly informed me that she's finally (after much threatening) thrown my Sorel slippers away. She had a point - after 4 years of being worn in all...
Thanks for all the info everyone - yep, it's a watch forum, but it's good to get lots of ideas and possibilities from everyone.
Some good thoughts - and yes - *lots* of potential pitfalls. The ex...
Hi all - after a bit of advice, or a firm no from those in the know.
Tiny bit of background on a long and sorry story - my recently divorced sister in law is living in a nice rented house near us...
I followed the recent ETAPrime guide on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg1Qpi3cWDU&list=WL&index=9&ab_channel=ETAPRIME
Had my new Fire 8 up and running in less than 15 minutes - super...
Watched Project Power on Netflix last night - an enjoyable brain out, popcorn style film - perfect for a Sunday night (a bit too gory for the wife though - so I had all the popcorn for myself!).
