It used to cut out with regularity; after I took the unit out the dash and removed 3 terribly fitted aftermarket iPod/MP3 players the cutting out went. All of a sudden this weekend the cutting out came back. I...

Re: DozeyDustman's Fleet update.

More modern progress.. The Saxo/106 was a better handling car because it had proper trailing arms instead of the dead axle the C2 has.
