Re: Towing

Thanks all
The car looks extremely tidy but it’s done only a couple of hundred miles in 12 months.

NMP plates

Hi I see there is a NMP thread already but didn't want to hijack it. I went to see a car today, a convertible but I could only see the number on the small strip on the N/S bulk head and the obvious one on the O/S but I could not see the NMP plate anywhere, I am lead to believe they are on the NS sta...

Appraisal

Hi
Not sure if this is something people would do but is there anyone with good sound knowledge in the North Lincs/East Yorkshire area that would do me an appraisal on a car I'm interested in.
Please message me if you are interested.

Many thanks

car viewing question

Hi all I have just been to have a look around a car- a 4 door saloon on a 63 plate. The only query I had was the engine had no reference any where with regards to the unleaded head fitted, there were lots of paperwork and bills including an engine change/overhaul around 10 years ago. Is there anyway...
