Had a job done to my other halfs car today after some twit hit her car in the car park.
Called out Michael Dartnell of ChipsAway and he did a grand job for modest money. Michael can be contacted on 07879 683112 and whilst he only has the franchise for Surrey, Berks Hampshire border area others ply their trade under the same name.
Look at www.chipsaway.co.uk and leave your details and they will phone back giving you the local repairer and will contact him to call on you too.
Great service and an Excellent repair. (He also did a small job on mine and it looks like new again)

I love helping folks Tucson CRTD CDX Limited, Warm Silver used to tow an Avondale 510/5L.

The problem with problems is that they remain problems until they are solved !

Came across this site today.

Worth a look at:
PePiPoo - Helping the motorist get justice

http://www.pepipoo.com/

To reveal to the ordinary UK motorist, clearly and concisely, how the government, police and judicial system deal with allegations of motoring offences in real life, and to provide the information motorists need to defend themselves.

This guy is great, apparently he's won an emmy for his online car repair videos, lots of tips and info with video evidence.

Typically american, not sure about his attitude to health and safety, just watch him grinding off a wheel bearing without safety glasses!!

Have a look at the Bosch website http://aa.bosch.de/aa-batterien/en/pkw/index.htm as that gives battery sizes (electrical and physical) and terminal layout.

Personally one of my favourites; what was the favourite car you owned?  Find out how many are left.  Just remember that others may be unregistered in garages and barns.

Enjoy

Www.Fuelly.com - real world mpg figures entered by owners. Lots of Hyundai on there. If I'd discovered the website before buying my i20....!
