So what's happened to zed-cars.org then?

For a few days, there was a message that the site had been suspended and now Internet Explorer can't display the webpage.

Re: How to help stop rear screen splitting?

Unless the pipe insulation is fabric based, I would be very wary of using it as small movements caused as you drive along could cause it to act as sandpaper. Most people use either the BMW window blanket or a rolled up towel placed in the crease.

If you are aware of a problem with the tyre that could cause a failed MOT, would it not have been wiser (and cheaper if you need a retest) to get it sorted before the MOT? You could at least have asked the opinion of a trusted tyre fitter to advise and therefore put your mind at rest.
