So in the world where you are encouraged to be green,where cars now run on electricity,houses are fitted with solar panels and the beautiful countryside is tarnished with wind farms........do I still have a place in this modern world?with my classic cars,my passion for the internal combustion engine and my belief that the car as a mode of transport is only bettered by a Spitfire or a Lancaster bomber.

Am I alone?

Nope Ian your not, when it comes to cars the bigger the engine, the more cylinders, the more power far out ways the green thing.....what these anti car pollutant people need is to come and listen to a proper v8 revving.....that will convert anyone.....

      Can a VIN decoder really help me check a car’s history?

      Hi David Welcome to the Forum A Vin decoder is a useful tool as it lets you know what was on the original cars build sheet but that only tells you what toys it should have. As its a 2021 car it will have had one MOT which hopefully is clear of any advisories, you can check recall and MOT at www.gov.uk/check-mot-history Next check all tyres are correct and in good condition odd or mismatched tyres can cause havoc with Transfer cases Transmissions and diffs. The rest is History History History plus making sure everything works as it should Good Luck Dave

      Can a VIN decoder really help me check a car’s history?

      Hey everyone, I’m thinking about buying a 2021 BMW X3 and want to make sure I’m covering all my bases before making a decision. I’ve heard about VIN decoders and how they can give you details about a car, but I’m not sure what kind of info they actually provide. Do they show anything useful, like accident history or open recalls? Or are they just for basic specs? If you’ve used one that worked well, I’d love to hear about it and any tips for getting the most out of it. Thanks so much!

      Z3 airbag wiring,

      Hi, Yes The air bag light is on. I have not heard of an emulator? It must be a device to turn the light off? The person that owned this before me was an older lady but maybe she had a mechanic do something to this? Thanks for your help, JayMe
