Re: Break/Tail light bulbs

Further confusion. Owners manual just says P21/5 - the 380 bit is what all the configurators tell you. It's not a P21/5 at all it's a P21/4 566 type. FFS ford!

Break/Tail light bulbs

Whodathunk replacing a brake light bulb on a Mk4 Mondeo would be such a pain in the arse?! It's a combined break/tail light. P21/5 380 according to the manual. But wait, these fuckers come with various end cap designs thusly: https://www.classicbulbs.co.uk/faq/data-books-free-bayonet-caps-what-do-th...

Re: First Cars - Insurance

On a similar subject, my lad will be 16 in December this year and I'm intending to buy him a scooter/ped to knock about on. I've no clue what the insurance scene is like for that end of the market - anyone done similar?

probs ought to leave this one be fella, from a basic decency pov. You're quite correct. How long should this be stuck to the top of the main page? If it offends you that much, and lord knows why it would, just browse the forum using this link and it isn't sticky: https://forums.ov9.co.uk/search.php...

Re: Citroen Relay review

If there's an Enterprise Car Club in your area, join that (often the council will provide a cheaper membership - mine did), they do vans and they are crazy cheap.

I took the biggest Transit they had to move 1 single mattress just for the lols.

Yes that is a weird combo. I quite liked eco pro mode for town work, it's a very relaxing way to shuffle along.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Some gormless cunt in a MINI decided my side of the road was more betterer on Monday night and took out the drivers side door mirror on my Mondeo. Glass broken, outer cover somewhere in a field, inner structure broken but I think salvageable. I bought a replacement primed cover off eBay for £11 and ...

Mundaneo 2.5 TittyX Photocopier Salesman Edition I've been getting some chirping from the "fan belt" recently, and during the floods I noticed that when the underside got properly wet it was worse, and the lights would pulse slightly and occisonally the power steering go stiff. Classic si...
