    Parts mark Up?

    Can firms justify the price they charge for spares? I needed an ABS sensor, and did a check online, but as it was an emergency I thought I'd buy it from the main agent accepting it might be twice the price. Well, how wrong can one be.

    Pot Holes, Tyres & Pressures?

    Thinking of signing over property.

    Just trying to see the best way forward to protect the family in the future. Read somewhere that if a third party is put onto the deeds it can help. been advised that if you sign it over and keep a right of residency, it doesn't help with the inheritance tax. Any advice welcomed.
