I absolutely love my roof rack, but it doesn't half make an awful sound at speed. Any ideas?!

Yup definitely will increase fuel consumption, cause it increases the exposed area, hence increasing the drag... wonder by how much though. Probably only a significant effect at higher speeds 80 km/h and above.

my top speed is restricted to 90 km/h due to excessive wheel wobble :P Obviously a wheel balancing problem

ha ha if I could I would - he got me discount when setting it up but then didnt answer his phone when broke down! I called AA & they got the nearest bloke out to me! I only need roadside and take me to the nearest garage thing, didnt want to pay extra for home recovery as can push the car 1/4 mile away for roadside :P

Just get the bog standard road side assist cover for about £60 a year or whatever it is. Then if it really is knackered or you break down at home and require a different service you just pay the extra then and upgrade. No point paying the whole lot and not using it.

I have RAC cover - called them out last week. Guy on the phone said they would be 45 mins and he showed up in 10 and fixed the problem on my wife's TT in a matter of minutes. Prior to L2B I called them out to the mini and the guys was again on site quick and got her running in no time (Coil problem). I never used to have any cover before this year so quite impressed so far.

Re-booking your car in to the garage again whilst still there isn't a great thing when the issue was 'resolved this afternoon'. And then your toilet seat falling off in your hand. My night is going to be great. On the plus side, my steering wheel has turned up whayhey!

Vinay-RS
Oooh fancy :) Congrats on the purchase, it is a very stylish wheel!

Looks like an Astrali Successor 2 but missing the little plastic corners on the spokes. Other than that it looks like it's in pretty decent nick. I've got one with the BL "Bath plug" badge on it, it's a nice retro wheel.

Shame about the Toilet seat :(
