Searching tip

I always had problems with searching. I would enter a search term and be directed to topics containing the search criteria, some of which could be many pages long with the searched for text somewhere in the middle. Then I realised that if I clicked "Print this entire topic" the system created a single page of the entire topic and finding the item was easy by searching within the page (IE using control F). Of course I did not have to print it but could save it for future reference if needed.

Is there an even easier way? Volvo XC60 - does all that the D4 should have done
Discovery HSE MY16 (good apart from the heating), now sold
Audi TT Roadster (wow)
MGB Roadster (owned since 1992)
Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE MY08
Saab 9-5 Aero 2002 (gone but not forgotten)

another tip i would say is when you get your list of probably threads open them "in a new window" rather than straight click.

for some reason if i click to a thread then hit back i loose all the suggested threads and have to start again.

only seems to do it for first page of suggested threads

or is it just me
