After loaning out my ZX TD it dumped my friend in Burgess Hill! I have now trailered the car home and taken it to a garage who have diagnosed a broken injector pipe. What I need is a a no. 2 injector pipe for a 1996 Citroen ZX Turbo Diesel with a Lucas pump. Anybody have one?

It's not useable at the moment. It's for the Volvo 850/V70, and is supposed to have an end cap at each end with two plastic locating prongs on each end cap. Looking at it from the rear of the car, the right hand end cap is missing. Has anyone got a bolloxed load cover with a good right hand end cap with both locating prongs in place? Thanks in advance people.

After my offspring turning her nose up at a perfectly good Hyundai I'm on the lookout for some teenage girl friendly learner shite, max budget £300, ideally within 75 miles of Kendal as I can't be arsed to travel much further, astra, focus, fiesta, micra sort of thing, manuel and no bigger than a 1.6, don't mind getting my hands dirty fixing things but it must run, stop, steer and heat up inside and have some mot... Over to you lot

My wife really wants a Toyota starlet . I recently got a rather scruffy high miles example as a loan car and its great fun to drive . Now the wife wants a good one for herself. Budgets around a bag give or take but she is looking for low ish miles and low owners and some history etc. Anyone know of owt?

I know this seems really cheapskate, so please don't all come on wailing about how cheap front discs are. I'm trying to do a few jobs all at once on my V70, and my budget doesn't stretch to all new OEM parts. Now that's out of the way, has anyone got a pair of unworn front discs for my V70? I'm pretty sure 850 discs are the same. 15 inch wheels, so I think these are 280mm discs. I think the higher perfomance models, such as the T5 and R have larger discs so no good. Also, if anyone has said items for sale, can you post? Ta in advance.

Grumpy bearded , balding fatty seeks sunflower sipping vehicular transport for shunting arse to station.Maybe even back again. Must have: Gsoh (good sense of hearse- to estate the obvious) Fish (turbot) Ticket (either Motorhead or 6 months mot) MmM (minimal mechanical maladies) Will travel for hawtties. Assuming i can keep my mitts off that maestro... Anyone got/know of anything that fits the bill?

I know MGB GTs are a difficult subject on this forum but I still like mind but I have not been able to use the sunroof all summer because the handle is broken. Does anybody have a Webasto/Britax sunroof handle they can sell me?

I will be using the Xantia to collect the Renault next year. Therefore it needs a tow bar. I know a brand new one can be delivered to my door for me to fit for the princely sum of £85, which isn't bad. But I'm a tight bastard who is often skint, so I'm wondering if there's a shiter with a good second hand one for less. Looking to fit the tow bar by February 2015, don't particularly fancy towing tiny cars on trailers through Welsh Walesland in the depths of winter.

Anyone able to do an HPi check for me at all please? Cheers in advance.

auto mx5 wanted northern ireland preferrably or north wales or north of brum for ease of getting sadly its not for me - theres 600 quid to spend anyone want an 02 ish mgf

Ive bought a really nice 306 hdi which it looks like the wife is having . The problem with it is that it smokes ( grey diesel smoke) at idle and in traffic . The guy I bought it off was told by their garage that it needs injectors but im not convinced . It starts perfectly with no diesel knock . Injector smooth running values on diagnostics are spot on . Egr already blanked . Maf reads 500 at idle ( in spec for egr blanked ) and makes no difference disconnected. No smoke under load or flat out even at night with cars following . So its looking like it could be the injectors . Im looking for a set of 4 that someone knows are good -ie out of a car they have run or know of . The numbers on mine are Bosch 9637536080 and seem to fit loads of PSA 2.0 hdis I know if I send my ones for testing that the local diesel place will say they are fucked cos they never ever say that they are ok ! Any one know of any ?

I'm after something along the following lines: £100 budget 6 months test 45mpg minimum Preferably in the south west. I realise this is like asking for the AS holy grail, but I'm just after something that will cart me around as cheaply as possible for a few months. I have a bit of mileage to cover and I need to make it as cheap as possible. The car will be auctioned here after I have finished with it. So, what's out there?

ive posted this before somewhere on here but thought i would again. mk1 astra or opel kadett wanted,i used to have an 83 kadett sr,i fancy something like that again (midlife crisis) any mk1 astra or same shape opel any model,even a 4 door,i miss the squeek/creek that all 80s vauxhalls had when you press the clutch,anyone know of one?dont mind a rotbox. the car in the pic is (no longer) identical to my opel i had as an 18 year old,same colour,but mine was a 2 door,recaro seats ect,makes me a bit sick,as i should of kept it,and its the only car ive ever been in love with,sad but i also loved my maestro van,new thread being started on your most loved car

A wheel clamp I am watching on eBay is collection only. Would anyone local be able to collect for me if I win it? I can then arrange a courier, or preferably have a passing mate collect. Beer tokens provided.

Anyone got a cheap but useable (i.e MOT''d, running and British registered) Lambretta for sale? Italian or Indian, I'm not fussed. I have a Vespa T5 Classic and up to maybe £1,000 (top whack) to add.

In what was probably a rash move, I sold my funky little Corsa Combo van tonight as the MOT had gone. In a perfectly rational way of thinking, I now want another van and another Combo 1.7 diesel would be most welcome, but with a bit of MOT on it. Other things considered, I have a huge* budget of about £400, so I'm clearly going to get a one owner, unabused minter for that sort of money. Or perhaps not. *Obvs no Escorts or Ivecos.

friend just bought e28 but even in povo spec (its a 518) it has no radio and the ones on ebay are millions of reichmarks or missing parts anyone got anything that would be in period and for realistic price?? fank ewe

Mother Sporty will not drive Father Sporty's Golf. However, Father Sporty is going in for a knee replacement next week, so Mother ideally needs to be able to drive. She wants a small car, and can only drive an auto. She would definitely have a Saxo, as Father had a manual briefly, and she liked it. Otherwise, she would need to sit in and have a go of whatever she was having. As ever, they've left this until the last minute, so I thought I'd ask on here. There's a decent looking Saxo Auto on Ebay, but it's in Newcastle. That's not the end of the world, but ideally we'd like something closer to us in Bolton. Double ideally would be someone willing to take on Father's Golf 1.8 CL Auto. Long test, P Reg, 5 door in Dragon Green. A couple of giffer scuffs, but nothing too major. Ideal budget £500 ish. Could stretch further if necessary, but ideally not. It's a long shot, but someone might have something.

Evenin' all.. Looking for something £300 tops that is small to medium sized with a reasonable amount of MOT...anyone here got anything that fits the bill? Cheaper than £300 would be a bonus too...

The HG has gone on my mates faithful 130 Ghia X tow car, so he is looking for another mk3 with the same motor, to take over duties for a while, and eventually donate its heart to Hercules. Cosmetic condition and spec are not important. Nor is body style, but a healthy motor with service history and mileage around 80K, and a tow bar, are. There's plenty of cars to be carted 'round, in the near future. He is based in Somerset, but that's not a deal breaker. Knocking DMF's welcome! APPLY WITHIN

Picture the scene - a sleepy cul-de-sac nestling in the heart of bustling Birmingham, beside a babbling brook and littered with greenhouses and neighbourhood watch stickers - a scene of sheer domestic bliss. That is until you witness the never ending feuds between my elderly Asian uncle and his Renault-Vel-Satis-owning Carribean neighbour. I couldn't care less about what's going on - nor do I particularly approve, but the jist is that he wants a very cheap car to exercise his right over a particularly part of land that will no doubt piss the neighbour off and gain a lot of Vel Satis contact. It's going to be insured and should preferably have a good long MOT. It won't be driven but does need to run. What it looks like doesn't matter, it'll look a whole lot worse after a few months. It will be taxed so preferably the old under 1.5 PLG bracket. It must be very close to Handsworth in Birmingham. It must have the capability to really piss of neighbours and make a white haired Indian man in his 70s EVEN MORE arrogant. Come at me.

Hey everyone.. So I just created an account today and this is my first posting.... I'm looking to buy a Renault 25 and ideally the V6 model or the 'Turbo Baccara' They seem to becoming rarer these days and very hard to find!! I live in Canada but I'm often over in the UK so collection is not an issue, I have trawled all classified adds in Northern America and to my surprise it reveled two Renault 25's for sale both in Florida. I would have jumped all over them had been been the right model i wanted, unfortunately they were not and my search continues. If anyone out there has one or knows of one that may be or is for sale please message me, Any help would be greatly appreciated... Many thanks Gareth.

I'm after a 2 stroke engine, needs to be in working condition, make and model doesn't matter, something I can fix to a timber plinth for static use. Motorbike, moped, even an old power tool motor (leaf blower etc). Needs to be cheap and close to west London / bucks area. Anyone?

Would any of you happen to have a pair of roof bars to fit a rover r8 416 tourer? Not the easiest car to get hold of bits for now. Also would buy a towbar bracket if I could find one. These r8 rovers were once very popular and there must be loads of these parts hiding in garages I hope.

does anybody work with hot pressure washers? im after a part for mine,its a kew 1640ha,same as nilfisk1640ha,i just need a temperature control knob and the gubbins that connect it to the circuit board,as some little scrote knicked mine,if you have a knackered one at work or know where i can find parts drop me a line,as its a great bit of kit but most parts obsolete and i dont mind spending on it. cheers in advance
