Was having a look through the channels on (sky freesat) and seen the
audi channel is available on channel 884 .

FYI: sky freesat is much the same as a freeview box as its a one off
payment with no monthly subscription .

Would audi nutters pay the £150 just to get the audi channel ? .

Bit up on miles, but totally clean .

We have an X registered (2000) BMW 525i. It spent its early life in Cyprus.
The registration Document states it was first registered in Jan 2001 and
first registered in UK in April 2005.
The DVLA are taking the 2005 date for road tax purposes so we are going to
get hammered . Do we have a good argument to insist the 2001 registration
date is the one they should take. Have had brief conversation with them and
they agree it is 2000 manufactured car and will look into it.
Anyone got any experience with this anomaly?

Thanks

I have a 4x4 - I never ever use it in 4wd, and I use it about once
every three months for days out - the rest of the time I walk
everywhere as I live in a town centre. I have to have 7 seats for the
size of my family, and I got it for a reasonable price when other
people-carriers were £5000+. I will still have to pay the extra road
tax to keep it (I have no off-road facility) even though I am a very
low polluter.
As much as you might hate 'chelsea tractors' driven by women on the
school run (partly because that's all they ever use them for), they
are still very often low polluters because they only use them for that
and a shopping run, unlike someone who commutes to work and sits in
miles of traffic every day.
Not only will I get stung for the extra tax, even though I hardly use
the vehicle...

I hired a transit van last Saturday to collect a fireplace I'd bought.
Having given my credit card details we examined the van for dents etc
and these were marked on a sheet with a diagram of the van. There was
quite a few small marks or dents, nothing major. I felt a bit wary so
was quite careful to double-check everything was marked before I
signed the sheet.
I took the van and returned it 6 hours later in exactly the same
state.
A lady came to examine it and found a tiny indentation on one of the
side panels which wasn't marked on the sheet. She called her boss who
said 'it was nothing' and to 'forget about it'. I assumed all was ok
and left. I didn't get anything signed by them to say all was ok.

Now I've got a letter saying the van was damaged and they're keeping
back £200 from my credit card.

Going to see them tomorrow morning.
Any advice?

Hi all,
took my '93 BMW 530i lump for a service yesterday, to find out too
many bits are dropping off & it's now beyond economical repair (quoted
around £1200 to put it all right on a car that would be worth c £600
when right - I inspected the issues, and agree that they're BIG issues).
So..... this being the rainy day I've clearly been saving for I
now have a budget of £8k for a replacement. Still sad though, the
lump's a great drive, great refinement.
However there are prerequisites for the new wheels:

Have to be able to transport 4 people + 2 dogs (one large, one
small) + luggage the length of the country in comfort (hence "family"
5-seater with good sized boot).
Have to be able to cope with towing a 1200kg (when occupied) horse
box (but just on local trips), so probably minimum 1.8l engine?
Must average (much) more than the 23.5 mpg I've been getting out of
the lump over the last 3 years I've owned it!
