maybe the time is right for the machines to take on world domination, man verses machine.
on the other hand its a vauxhall, not renowned for their electrical reliabillity.

Yeah ...... Terminator wouldn`t quite have the same impact I think if they didn`t go to Skynet but went to Ellesmere Port instead , To halt production of Vectras someday . The Vectras got fed up of mankind slagging them off and developed a sentient mind , they then formed a new supercar that enticed a certain Jeremy Clarkson into it ..... it was last seen doing 187mph into a wall with Clarkson screaming with his hair on fire , just how he wanted to go

Question Re: Strange goings on in the car

Mice? It sounds silly but the little b******s get in strange places, I know someone who has been having car alarm problems and they were the cause.

In fact, all the vauxhalls we've had have been fine. They aint no FORD or FIAT uknow

tbh, I think yours is just screwed and get rid of it. I use many Vauxhall forums in the last 8 years, and no-ones ever come near with that list of issues on a fairly modern car..
Swap? mine has fsh as well part from last year when only an oil change as it had only done 2k miles since its service about the same time in 07, i do plan to get rid of it when i get insurance renewal and get a car with a warranty, hope insurance will b cheap on a 1.8 focus as i will only b 18

Most recently Thursday night at 02:32 precisly I was treated to the BBC World Service, I think, I must confess to not staying around long enough to be sure. That was the only event!

Friday night was perfect peace!

Whilst it seems like a good idea to just turn the volume down that would probably mean waking up in the morning to a flat battery.
Today was a full day at work, so no chance ti investigate, and tomorrow there is no chance so it seems at least a week more hauntings.

I've just nipped out with a lump of chalk and drawn a pentangle round it so as to protect the rest of the world from the ghoolies and ghosties!

Tomorrow i might just have time to buy a mouse trap and leave that armed on the drivers seat overnight, just in case it is mice. Monday morning I may just be singing in a very high voice.
