You're as drunked as meee then!

Aren't VW's on variable service interval? 'Normal' driving apparently results in approx 15,000 mile service interval?? Ford ones are on fixed 10,000 miles - I believe there is a setting on VAG.COM to control the interval. I increased the servie interval on mine to 15,000 miles after 80,000 miles. Didn't notice any fall-off in performance or fuel efficiency.

Gertie Galaxy has gone! Yesterday I traded her in and she's apparently off to British Car Auctions in Preston... She doesn't look too bad really (see pic at bottom!), but she needs

Hello you lot! I haven't been around for a while as I've been really busy, but... The time has come for the old Gal to move on to pastures new, after being 'mine' for nearly 4 years and 112,000 miles! So, off we went this morning to her place of birth, that place of worship known as Motorpoint, to reduce the long-list down to a short-list and hopefully make a decision and order a new car whilst we were there. A new Galaxy wasn't high on the list, although I did have a good look at a brand new 2.0TDCi Zetec in 'Tonic' (or was it 'Stardust') for

BUT, did they actually change anything on the car or did they JUST change the interval?????

Yes!

That new single alloy is a bit pricey! When I got one to replace my steel spare on Ebay I paid

Yes, Meguires is, but your Mondeo..... :o

Please God, why??????????????????????????

When are you cleaning the wheels then????

Maybe the chain is for the optional toilet which replaces one seat in row 3....
