This thread is pretty pointless as its clear she picks cars based on looks/exterior design which makes it entirely subjective. The 'best' small-ish car for around £10k will be a Golf DSG and its VAG various incarnations, not crap like the Juke or Captur.

...for listening to music. Any suggestions? Interested in a rich, warm sound. Don't care about bass. Thanks

They may have a Fiesta XR2i owners car segment on it soon. Could be your old car! :p

Don't know but he should give it a go!!

Anyone seen this? Pretty entertaining and funnier that Top Gear. http://www.bbc.com/news/business-30897077 https://www.youtube.com/user/CarThrottle/featured

Thanks for the all the replies :-)

It's funny how people are bleating on about how their tyres perform in the wet, when they don't even seem to realise that they're using summer tyres and that winter tyres blow them out of the water in terms of wet braking.... http://youtu.be/elP_34ltdWI?t=3m20s

I couldn't care less :D I'm not going to lose any sleep if you run your car for 50,000 miles on a single oil change.... :p

The only trolling going on are people who are trying to deliberately troll the thread off track.

Nothing to do with troll fishing etc. It's only the a significant minority of *** remove my edit again and you will be suspended *** - Will Gill on this sub-forum who don't know better and always insist that up is down, down is up etc. If a car manufacturer said tomorrow that they've extended...

Yeah, but you never stress your engine because of the way you drive, 30% throttle etc. The stretch to 18k service intervals was for fleet cost reasons with data derived from optimum driving conditions, in the same way that manufacturer MPG figures are derived from optimum driving conditions...

Ford is even less in the US! In general, Ford Motor Company recommends the following oil change schedule: 2008 and newer model-year vehicles: every 7,500 miles or every six months, whichever comes first 2007 and older model-year vehicles: every 5,000 miles or every six months, whichever comes...

LOL. That's funny given that BMW have now revised their oil change intervals down to 10,000 miles :p http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=998439

LOL. 18,000 service intervals weren't introduced because someone eliminated oil getting dirty and contaminated with use, they were driven largely by manufacturers wanting to bring down the 'on paper' cost of servicing to fleets over contract periods. I work for Coca-Cola but I wouldn't say I'm...

LOL. You sound like you're the sort of person who questions whether its cold in the North Pole :p

But it will wake up all of your neighbours when it starts in the morning :p

Paying £10,000 to drive 10,000 miles? In a 2.0 4cyl diesel? £1/mile excluding fuel?? Are you mad? You might as well just set fire to that £10k and make a bonfire out of it.

Sure. What I'm saying though is that for the sake of a £18 tub of Dexos 2, you'd be mad, not to change your oil (and filter) at 9000/12000 miles and instead run it to 18,000 miles. It's daft, particularly if you have a hard worked or turbo'd engine. Never understood why people would rather...
