    Scrunch!

    My Gransport has developed a noise from the font suspension, it's more than a squeak, not a knock, more of a creak. I have had a look and can't see anything amiss, other than the rubber cover over the top of the shock absorber is all caught up. Seems to becoming from nearside. It drives just...

    Stick or twist

    I have a very nice Gransport LE which I thought was a keeper, makes me smile every time I drive. But that's the trouble is I do not drive it enough. I will not take it out in the salt and prefer it to be dry, but will bend on that. All my other cars are garage queen's except the daily Volvo...
