Hi Pete, I am glad that the replacement part has worked out well for you. As indicated previously, I am happy for you to accept the part as a token of goodwill. Regards Styria

Hey Patrick, that's me to a tee !

I could have supplied you with a key.....Hope everything works out okay for you. I have since found the original one I had brought home, but hadn't been able to remember where I out it. Thank you for compliment. Regards Styria

What impressed me with the car, apart from the quite beautiful cream coloured interior, were some of the standard features that came on the car way back then .....e.g. Heated front leather seats, electrically adjusted. Sunroof - slide and rearward opening...

I could have bought the car there and then, but on a test drive familiar to my area, it did not take long to discover a front suspension/bushes rumble that Ultra Tune had overlooked the previous day when they prepared a Blue Slip. The owner had no idea and as I really had no firm intentions to...

However, what was more appealing was the interior. Unfortunately, it seems as though only the older models attract the light coloured upholstery, and anything much newer seems to sport grey.dark grey and black - how disappointing. Anyway, I mustn't digress. You be the judge....

As most of you know, we have had absolutely perfect service from a Honda Jazz (Daisy) that Julie bought in March, 2016. So naturally, I have become more interested in some of the bigger Sedans/Hatchbacks such as the Accord (not Euro version - styling bland to say the least) or even the now...

Missed you my friend. Good to see you on TK. It probably has been a number of years. Regards Styria

Hi Peter, door handle posted yesterday afternoon by Express Post. I hope that it will do the job for you. Regards Styria

Hi Peter, I apologize for not having responded to you properly. Whilst I have been busy, I did forget to post the one I had retrieved originally - and to be perfectly honest, I have mislaid it. However, not all is lost - I have collected a replacement unit which I will post to you tomorrow -...

An expensive exercise, probably the norm from German, and possibly, other manufacturers. I am a subscriber to an overseas news and opinion cast, on all manner of subjects, by the name of Quora. Don't ask me how I became a subscriber, but all of a sudden it would appear in my Mailbox on a regular...

Well BenzBoy, after all this time, I hope it will turn out to be a good car for you. I paid $7500.00 for my 2007 Captiva back in September, 2015 with a mileage of a tick over 112K. kms. Presently it stands at 217,137 as at today's date. It has let me down once with a Fuel Pump issue (partially...

Generally speaking, you hope against hope that the washers themselves are in good and efficient working condition. If not, there is the second hand option, but nowadays spare parts from wreckers are inclined to dry out. It wouldn't be easy to adopt an after market alternative as space under...

I will bring members up to date with progress on new work on GB. As well, I am endeavouring to create an opening for the sale of a number of refurbished timber items. Regards Styria

Keeping thread afloat. Very interesting.

Hi Pete, I am sorry but I completely forgot. Yes, I have a good one - no worry in that regard. If I charged you $35.00 all up, would you be happy with that ? If you are, all I'll need will be your postal address. Regards Styria N.B. BTW, how are things in Port Augusta ? What is...

No, it was a mish mash of a particular colour that Jerry had on hand, and we just added a bit of black as we went along. I wanted to make sure that the two tone scheme wasn't too crass, but my thought centred around the area where the two colours were to be separated. Any different colour BELOW...

They called the Charcoal "Blue" - that's not a worry. I also believe that the Nippon Paint is of a cheaper variety than Dulux. BTW, Dulux has taken over, or have been taken over, as a result of Intercompany machinations. The guy did explain it all to me, but it sort of went over my head...

Okay, the paint is now reaching about 10-12 years of age, and I have been concerned with not having surplus paint on hand. The Petrol MB 877 I had saved had gone hard, but I managed to save it by mixing it with Thinners. The other colour, shall we call it Charcoal of sorts, mixed up by...

My 6.9 that I have owned since the mid '90s, was very capably resprayed by Jerry about ten years ago. The paint still looks good, the texture and feel are very smooth to the feel, all obviously helped by the fact that nowadays , and since then, the car has lived indoors. Many times I have...
