I need to buy a sensible car for around £8,000 - 7,000. I was a thinking of a Renault clio of ford fiesta - but A-class is only slightly more expensive. Why is that? Are they poor?

Would you? I've been in cars where parents have allowed there kids to ride unrestrained because they are only going to the shops or somewhere that's a short distance away, ie under 5 miles. I'm curious as I see lot's of people at shops who just bundle their kids in, or if there are two mothers and not enough seatbelts, hold a child unrestrained on her lap? i always buckle my kids up, no matter how far I'm going, but I'm curious to hear the thoughts of others, especially those who choose not to restrain their children

As a rider who is long in the tooth, it seems to me that over the past decade, the motor company has sold its logo, brand image to everyone who has the money to do so. Teddy bears, piggy {hog} banks, Barbie on a Harley, and the list goes on.

The local mechanic does not know how to reset the oil light which I believe goes on based on mileage not the actual condition of your car/oil...anyone know how?

Occasionally when I start my Audi A4 1.9tdi I can hear four loud beeps that sound like they're coming from the boot area. I have no idea what's causing them or where they're coming from but it's annoying me and I want to know what it means. I don't have reversing sensors fitted so it's not that.

It does this noise even if it is hot weather. Dealer Service Dept said is normal, and due to carbon accumulation in pistons. Chevrolet WILL NOT repair it, says it doesn't affect the performance or life of the motor.... I find it to be a very annoying noise. and embarrasing.
They reccommended go to thicker motor oils...
My truck has 34892 miles and I am the first owner.
Please help, What can I do to minimize and fix this?

Is it possible to have any car proffessionly converted to a soft top, do you remember the old original capri it had a boot rather than a hatchback i have the chance to get hold of one but it needs restoring, not something i can do myself being a girl and all that lol i fancy buying it and getting it restored but think it would look really sexy as a soft top.
