Need to change the coil on a Ford Ka but there appears to be two parts available, one for early 1998 and one for Sept 98 onwards. Any tips for working out which one this is, when it was registered just after the time of the change? The engine number seems to be hidden out of view.

After a quick browse on the nest I found that similar conditions and parameters when applied to Germany, France, Switzerland and the Netherlands produce quotes that are at least half to a maximum of 70% less.
Also, continental insurers are not asking too many questions. I was never asked about, where I park the car, if it has a tracking device, if there's CCTV in the area or what brand the alarm system was.
Does anyone know why these UK premiums end up so much more expensive? (The one reason I can imagine, is that insurance gets much less exposure in advertising in those European copuntries compared to UK).
Any answers appreciated.

My bf and I spent alot of money to get our car fixed that we bought a month ago, a cheap car, but we put in new gaskets, heads, and some other stuff. It still however needs a new set of spark plugs and something with the power steering. But my question is, he was outside tonight working on the doors of the car, the wiring is all messed up, he was trying to rewire them since they were crossed wired, and fix the radio. He was out there for about three hours and started the car about 3 times maybe within that time. And when we tried to leave to go to the store, the car made this horrible clicking kind of noise and the lights in the cabin dimmed and flickered. Also the battery thing reads -8 he said. So is it just the battery that is run down right now then?

Will a jump start fix the problem and let the battery recharge while driving it after the jumpstart? Sorry I don't know much about cars, but we did spend almost more fixing it then we did paying for it.

On the A1 at Alconbury, there is a 4 lane stretch of motorway. My question is - why do women and the occasional male (my experience), insist on sitting in the 2nd lane, so that everybody else have to go around them. Even though the first lane is empty.

and i mean takes corners, accelerates (not necessarily 0-60 time), and over all performs great. Show a viper (corvette, XLR) a corner and it has no idea what to do. Muscle power aside the car must perform as a daily driver and a weekend "racer". Jeez you gotta get specific with these question....

I think it looks pretty good for its price (~$5,000), but since it only has 140hp, I am not sure if it has enough power. Anyone have opinions? How is its ride? What is its 0-60 time for an Auto. Trans.?

93Tempo-seems like either brakes or emergency brake just sticks on and them I smell burning something and smoke will come out from one of my wheels! What can I do for a fast cheap fix or how do I determine if it's brakes or the emergency brake? Will cutting the emer. brake solve the problem?
