Tarpaulin for Motorbike. Where from? I bought a lightweight cover for my SV650 here and it's find for what it is but I want a heavy weight tarp for over Winter. There are more heavy weight covers here but they're not that heavy and I don't want to spend $300 + on one. Do Repco etc have them?... |

Older diesel vehicle discussion Hi, interested in thoughts from you guys in the know? We have a 1996 Nissan Regulus 3.2 diesel, been our tow wagon for years and its a damned good vehicle in really tidy shape. Blows a puff of black when starting, but then its pretty clean. I've certainly... |

New format is tedious & problematic It may be only a "motoring" category problem, but the new format is data hungry: Takes too long to load, and after panning down to read the "description" the page jumps back to the start several times THEN after winning the auction the useless format refu... |

RAV4 burning oil My teen son has a 1998 215km rav4 that burns/used a lot of oil. There is a slight oil mark on the drive where it sits. It is his first car, but at the moment hasn’t got a lot of $$ to fix it. So any suggestion of additives that can be added to the |

What would you use to repower a CF Bedford van? All Bedford jokes aside, I think the 202 red motor is a bit old hat by now. A V8 must be pretty noisy inside the cab and maybe unnecessary. Who thinks a V8 is the way to go, must be somebody here who’s had one. 3.8 Holden Buick motor? 1JZ? Anybody |

Toyota corolla axio hybrid. They are mechanically almost the same as a Toyota Aqua and are the same as a Feilder. You really don't know you are driving a Hybrid. IMO they are very very good cars. |
