Re: What did you do today?

Subjected myself to the mouth breathers on FB marketplace with two scrap value vehicle adverts, Punto and transit tipper. Seems like every foreigner in Scotland (and some from abroad) have messaged me this morning. One was definitely coming down from Aberdeen leading me to tell others it was sold p...

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2003 E320 & 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI

Handy trick on the lights, not seen that one, cheers for that. The old mans Z had proper cataracts last time I saw it and that should do the job nicely.

Re: Electric vehicles, pros and cons. Have your say.

Recently I looked at one of these as a potential replacement for our Citigo, when we need to replace it, whose normal longest journey is about 60 miles to Norwich and back. That'll do about 360 or so miles on a full tank, so Oxford and back if we go and see our youngest. Given that the Up! starts f...

Re: Electric vehicles, pros and cons. Have your say.

I just saw the vid on the new * Dacia they are releasing here for the first time. A step in the right direction, they've managed to get it to weigh about a tonne. The low power version is 45bhp!

That's half what my shitty 30 year old Pug has and virtually the same weight. Talk about progress :lol:
