Re: Squire's voitures
Regarding the Midget I used my MGB as a daily driver for a few years in the late 70s/early 80s, commuting 15 miles each way to work through Leeds every workday. It was OK in the snow and never got stuck, partially I think because it has relatively narrow tyres, 165/80, for its weight. Obviously not ...

Re: The Parallel Universe of R16 Ownership
On the carb side of things I think I've got a Solex Pict 31, can't remember which version, in my T2 parts stash.
Would this be of any use? If it might be I'll dig it out and take some pics.

Re: What did you do today?
So would I. Even if the indicator doesn't work as it's a BMW.
My son's Pluriel has a mahoosive dent in the back but we've been driving it around for a couple of years or so now as it's perfectly safe, just looks battered if you see it from the back.

Re: What did you do today?
So that's at inflated insurance rates, presumably with a new wing etc.etc..

Re: What did you do today?
I think that it depends on the company.
This happened to my eldest's Pluriel and Tesco, believe it or not, dealt with the whole thing pretty slickly.

Re: What did you do today?
So are you just unlucky with this as I've always had the impression that Honda engines are virtually 'bomb-proof', although I guess if it hasn't been maintained properly previously any engine could go?

Re: Weird new car warranty exclusions
I thought twice about posting it on here but decided to do so as I assume some will run newish cars and it also seems weird to me.
(My own cars are now 1968 and 1974 as I didn't replace the Galaxy which was basically used as a university shuttle bus for my sons)

Weird new car warranty exclusions
Something just reminded me of my 2007 Galaxy that got written off. Basically water was getting in through the roof , probably on both sides, resulting in a in-car paddling pool for the middle row passengers and a potential bill of at least £4,500 for new airbags, partial loom etc..plus labour.
