I've struck a deal with 2 dealerships for a new SUV (great price). Now comes my trade-in appraisal today. It's an '04 Accord DX that was in a minor accident (body shop had to replace the driver's door....that's it). Looks GREAT and is easily in excellent condition with low miles (31K). Using Edmunds, NADA and KBB...the trade-in value for this car in "good" condition ranges from $9900 (KBB) to $11800 (NADA). I owe $10,600 on the car. My goal is pay-off and the deal we've made for the new one.

Is that a reasonable goal? Could I do better? Should the simple body-shop work done (by some of the best in town) really hurt the value. It's a GREAT car in GREAT shape.

If you're at a bike festival and some solicitors turn up with a stand, what would make you talk to them? In particular, what advertising (particularly posters or banners).

Please keep in mind that you wouldn't want to see these solicitors wearing next to nothing trying to look glamourous draped over a bike! And they wouldn't want to tarnish their image by having someone else do so either, especially if it meant paying them!

I was right at the front of the ques to turn right at the junction of Camden Rd and Holloway Rd. There were cars next to me and behind me. An ambulance approaced in my lane a few cars back. I edged forward onto the padestrian crossing (still going through the first light, but not crossing the road). There was a people ambulance next to me in the other lane and the driver indicated that I should drive on as the ambulance still couldn't get past (as was still stuck behind the cars behind me. I did and crossed the road. Now I'm worried I'm going to get a ticket! Anyone know about these things?!

I bot the Hyundai jeep directly from the manufacturers, the airconditioner collapsed within a year of purchase, the automatic transmission system collapsed, they are now asking me to bear the cost of repairs which is almost the cost of a brand new one

Mine came with factory tinted windows. My previous one didn't and was done at a shop and they said not to use Windex but some cleaner they had. Were they trying to sell their product or is there some truth to it because of the ammonia?

I have an '86 silverado. I put a new 350 in it. New carb and new almost everything. When I shut the key off, it diesels. I have had so many people look at this problem. I even have the idol turned way down to the point where I am stalling at lights. the timing is right on the dot! No one can tell me whats going on! the way I have been shutting it off is just flooding it after I turn the key. I've shut it off in drive, and it still diesels down. Sometimes when its warm out, it will shut off perfect, other times it won't. I have even had the vacuum advanced replaced and the distributor cap replaced. The choke is also set to where it is supposed to be. I need answers!!! PLEASE HELP!! -Thank you
