Jaguar Racing will be transformed next year into a Ford-branded F1 team, according to the latest word from the F1 paddock. There is a strong body of opinion at Ford that the company should benefit from the programme if it is spending all the money. Jaguar Cars, a Ford subsidiary, is currently the beneficiary of the investment but Jaguar sales have been faltering in recent months and production is currently being streamlined to meet demand. Using the Ford brand will open up many more possibilities for marketing but we hear that Ford wants to reduce its costs a little more and is looking for a partner to take over 30% of the team and help with the funding. The management of the team should not be affected by any of the changes. >>www.grandprix.com

Hi, I am currently looking into buying a second hand A33 cefiro. I recently noticed a switch labeled as mentioned in the topic. Its situated to the south-west of the gear lever. Anyone knows what it does? Thx

wah... today very suai.... our last and final 'original' power window failed and dropped down when we were abt to go home after work! coz already 6pm, so no choice, drove to servotronics to try our luck, almost all the workers left already, but philip was still around, so he manage to jam it back up for us first.... says will call us when the part arrives... 1st power window failed = right passenger side (JTA no stock, so jam up for us) 2nd power window failed = left passendger side (JTA no longer around, went to CA get both replaced...) 3rd power window failed = driver side (replaced at CA) 4th power window failed = front passenger side (waiting for replacement at servo) .... anyway, this not the purpose of my post... as i was at servo, i asked philip if the hazard light switch stock has arrived and got him to replace it for me. cost of replacement = $69, no labour saw him do it, quite simple. 1. use flat tip screw drive to slowly and gently ply the 4 sides of black frame surrounding the hazard light switch. 2. take it out first (just like one flat piece of rectangular plastic with a triangle cut out in the middle. 3. plug out the whole component (refer to diagram). remove the triangular hazard light plastic 4. fix the triangular harzard light plastic on the new switch. 5. plug whole thing back in. 6. cover back with the black frame. everything took abt 1 minute beano and skodaman, if u want, i think can go servo to change lor. philip was about to throw the faulty part away, but i took it back to scan... hahaha the text on the part already very blurred out, some letters missing, think due to time... i try to type what i can see out, hopefully, u can get xin chong to indent it for u. black text above white sticker: "SAE OC 89 PNT 60. DOT" text on white sticker: (skoda logo) PNT Germany ??? 953 235 B WBS + DI FA6 6 GF30? i might be wrong in guessing the actual text.... hehehe

Thinking of changing my tyres/rims from 175/70/13" to 195/50/15".....on my proton wira,is it advisable??Would there be a lot of difference in stability/significant power loss etc.....any chance of body hitting the tyres with heavy load??.....basically is it worth spending $600 to $700 or should i wait till my tyres wear out,look like they can last another year?? By the way should i go for Kumho tyres??($70 each).....or pirelli P6000($80 each)
