    Seat belt length of rear seats for child car seats?

    Baby car seats have grown considerably over the past 7 years. My lads seat now 7 used to be a dodle. My little girls seat 11 months old is way bigger and a pain to get in. Yes I can get it to fit but it's down to the last inch of belt.

    Wing mirrors holding water?

    Drives me effin insane when cleaning the car. The water is well ard round these parts so its a pig to clean. Thanks for the info, will get in there and give them a good cleaning in the hope they drain quicker. Amazing how much water they can hold and release annoyingly slowly over time.

    Coolant leak while idling

    I had the same recently but it seems to have healed up! Not before me taking the bumper off for the second time. Rekon its time to replace all the hoses soon as they are getting on.

    Cheapest place for new rear badges?

    You won't find huge savings between the main guys. Occasionally you can get a bargain on ebay just make sure they are genuine. Reputable seller with genuine packaging with matching part numbers. I have been lucky with the H but went to Hendy for the typeR a week or two ago.

    The "what have you done to your DC5 this weekend" thread

    Sympathies. It's the time it takes up doing all the chasing and messing about. Not to mention the inconvenience or losing something you have put a lot of time into. Usually works out financially beneficial. But what an anus. Hope your luck takes a turn.

    Lost key

    I would say its the body shops problem. I would want the keys and barrels changing, plus the alarm replacing or reprogramming by a reputable company. This is why we have insurance and more so business insurance. If you simply get another key cut and another fob programmed and your car gets...
