How many people can u take in the car before funny noises kick in. I have a few wierd ones, like a creaking when I set off and stuff. Am supposed to be going out later and taking 3 other people in the car and want to know if it is ok to do, don't wanna be wrecking stuff.

Can get four people in mine, 5 at a push, one of my rear springs is well knackered though so I don't push my luck at the moment

lol, if you set your handbrake when it is wet, then the weather drys up u take the handbrake off and then set off the shoe will stick to the drum cos of its wetness until u set off then it pops back into place
