A new car on Autotrader for £24,000. Either the price is way out or they think the registration plate is valuable.

I've always found Amazon expensive for car detailing stuff.

The market looks flat. The same cars have been up for ages. Some have been taken off Autotrader, but are still available at the garage. A new private sale has gone up. Budget tyres, a wheel faced back so far the R has gone, and the front brakes look a mess. They've priced it higher than...

The RCZ has the N18 engine not the N14.

The cost of the brakes doesn't need further exaggeration. Mini did not stop using the engine in 2009. He's getting mixed up with an older engine that was significantly worse.

Read the reviews of that garage.

Coils packs are about £20-25 each and it's best to change them all at the same time. Do they charge labour? Was £93 for one?

The R is the one with potential for longer-term investment. You'll need to find a good one and not overpay for it just now. Some of the repairs required could eat all of the appreciation in value.

They are fine on the first set of pads, but they will be corroding and the chrome coating breaking up. Push the pistons back in for the next set of pads and you'll have issues. They need rebuilt with stainless pistons.

I was going to say it might be the chrome coating peeling off, but there is also a big dent or burn on the trim around the gearstick. The engine bay looks really clean. All the nuts and bolts look corrosion free.

I've driven a few Audi RS models and none of them have been exciting. They are fast, but they aren't fun to drive.

That's why I recognised the registration plate. :D I assume they are trying to get help selling it.

A tyre garage removed mine when they couldn't get them off. They hammered a socket on and it didn't take them long. They didn't charge. The locking wheel nuts were months old after the supplying dealer broke the previous set. The Peugeot supplied ones are the worst I've ever seen. I've...

I'd just look to upgrade the discs and pads you have on the car. The R brakes are very good, but they are very expensive.

Are you on 18" or 19" wheels? Smaller diameter wheels with larger profile tyres will help. Some brand of tyres also have softer sidewalls if you want to stick with the wheels you've got.

The black one at £16,499 has popped back up at the same dealer. I think they must be pulling them down and then back up to make them look like they've just been listed. Autotrader has the dates on the advert. Also when an advert is relisted it still shows further down the most recent list...

The same cars are popping up time and time again. The red one at £16,750. I recognise that registration, but can't remember why. The car hasn't been taxed since November last year and the MOT had expired for a few months. Is that the car that was badly repaired when it was for sale last time...

The dealer is responsible to fix the car. He has sold you a car with faults. You are entitled to reject the car.

I hope you are all ok and the car is found undamaged. I hope the thieves are caught. Horrible thing to happen.
