I'm based in Southampton; can anyone recommend anyone in the area for de-chroming? I don't mind travelling a bit for someone who'll do a good job. Thanks!

I've still got a year left on my warranty, but will be looking to replace my factory-fit oil cooler with an aftermarket alternative when the warranty does run out. What options are out there so far and has anyone tried them? How much are they paying and what's the quality like? I've heard...

Shortly after collecting my car 2 years ago, I noticed a fairly quiet metallic clink sound about a second after changing from P to S, D or R. It sounds like two bits of metal knocking together. I had it in with the dealer; after which it seemed to go away for a while. However, since then, I've...

Is there any way to temporarily switch off the DRL's ?

It seems clear that there are repeated issues with air con failures, oil coolers, puddle lights etc. I assume car manufacturers have systems in place to detect repeated issues. What happens in the long run when it becomes noticed that a particular component is repeatedly failing in a short...

I've got a double garage, but with two single doors; the width of which is 10cm wider than the Mustang leaving just 5cm on each side. Has anyone got any tips on parking it in such a tight space? I think the hardest part of it has to be judging the distance with the wide sills and the rear of the...

Has anyone else had an issue where their car stops connecting to their phone? I've resolved this by deleting and re-adding it, but it's happened a couple of times so far. Could be my phone at fault, but I haven't had another one to test with yet... I'm using a Sony Xperia Z3 BTW.

I was looking to get a set of removable Magnetic door protectors to protect my car from people opening their doors on it. I was thinking of something a bit like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Door-Defender-NI-627843040002-Protection-x/dp/B00F2ECLV0 However, I can't imagine it would it would sit...

I usually go to the USA every couple of years for a road trip. Until now, the choice of car has always been easy. However, now I have the Mustang, I think it would be a bit silly to hire one stateside. So, what should I try the next time I'm out there? Is the Camaro worth a shot or something else?

So, I was wondering, what are the chances the S550 will be a future classic? There certainly aren't many other cars like it and the appeal is obvious. The next thing I was then wondering is how will modern cars survive as classics? Cars from the 90's and older are fairly simple with basic...

I understand the Mustangs supplied in the US aren't undersealed. In the UK, it's standard practise to underseal cars from the factory to protect them from stone chips and road salt rusting out the underside. Long story short, prior to being delivered in the UK, they get undersealed in...

I've noticed that the clowns in Zeebrugge have sprayed underseal on parts of my alloys. Can anyone recommend a good way to remove this without damaging the paintwork on the wheels?

Has anyone else notices a metallic resonating sound when driving? Its hard to pinpoint where it's coming from, but is more noticeable at lower speed. It might be coming from the rear diff... The best I can liken the sound to is the sound of a tuning fork after its been struck.

I am fast becoming a bit of a vehicle hoarder. Including the Mustang, I'm now running 3 cars and a bike. What else has everyone else got? CB600/Hornet: Polo with a G40 conversion (1.3 supercharged) The daily driver is an old 51-plate Polo; I don't have any decent pictures of that!

A picture says a thousand words, so here we go: I absolutely love it!

After seeing some of the threads about underseal, I thought it would be interesting to have a poll about what people are doing or intend to do. As far as I see it, there are three options: Leave it as it is. This is as Ford intended it. The US and Canada cars aren't undersealed and they have...

I'm waiting for my Mustang and hopefully it won't be long until I get it. This will be the first new engine I've run in since having an engine on an old 80's VW rebuilt 10 years ago. I'm wondering if there's any difference in running in a newer engine than the one on my old VW. I was told the...
