OV9

Doesn't help for renewals but taking a more expensive learner policy that doesn't auto cacel (rather than having a £350 one and having to cancel and reinsure elsewhere) results in a drop of £1000 for the first year on a Skoda Citigo. So originally it would have been £350 for the learner policy that...

Not wholly to blame, yes and issue, but a lack of testing on the part of the end user orgs that just accept channel updates and push them without testing. Proper would have stopped this. Cost cutting to blame again IMO.

Pour one out for another victim of this, looks like Tenacious D are no more. Jack Black has cancelled Tenacious D's tour after his bandmate said "don't miss Trump next time" in the wake of the former president's attempted assassination. The School of Rock star said he was "blindsided...

One of my favourite actors. Kelly's heroes, space cowboys, the eagle has landed, backdraft all superb performances. Thanks and RIP.

Good to revisit and check I chose option 3 when this thread started. I have just seen this about the Cannonball Run car, as the film turns 45: https://www.lamborghini.com/en-en/news/the-cannonball-run-countach-lp-400-s-turns-45 So the extra wing on the front was for the movie rather than a factory ...

So those aren't NFT's as such (although the line is blurred), it looks like a futuristic 'Second Life' type game. Your buying in game assets. Brave/stupid of people to start buying stuff for a game that isn't out yet and looks to be very early in dev. But then people are paying $84,000 for virtual ...

Aside from Miks obvious lack of drving prowess ;) , A Morgan I think is like the TVR, if you get them you are happy, if you don't you think of them as a torture implement. Thinking about the plus 4, they used to do them with a Rover 2.0 16v (I think it was the M16) and these were fairly spritely in ...

Carefully.

It'll take two years of meetings with a per diem of all members of the board of £300 each for food and accomodation.....etc etc

Take off, nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

https://i.imgur.com/vFwueB3.jpeg Hoping I can get it off just by lowering the gearbox end rather than having to drop the whole thing… And I'm not looking forward to removing the rear calipers on the Chim as the handbrake cable access can be a pain (needs releasing above the diff apparently), that's...

Outrageous!

I know right

Old Ford parts are cheap, although the suppliers for the front pads (Escort and Granada Cosworth upgraded calipers on mine) are dwindling now so they are getting more expensive.

Time to update the thread. MOT passed last month with advise of corroded rear discs so a set of Delphi discs and pads were procured for £59 from GSF (got to love a light car with old ford parts on it). Fited and then it developed a squeak from the rear passenger side (like a buckle in the disc). Pu...

Nope not me, I've been away on holiday with very poor signal. I did get a few posts up but mostly been offline for a week, selling the tow car?

Will.be watching and hopefully get my daughter to watch too as she's a bit date concerned. Reminds me I'll post my mix link in the bucket thread as until then I've just been talking bs.

Mermaid spiced. Just bought a small taster bottle, drinkable straight and nice with coke. Will get a larger bottle for some variety before I go home. Not cheap at £39 a bottle.

A friend was taken last weekend (only 62 by the big C) and its made me think of things ive ticked off the list in the past few years. TVR v8 ownership was one, taking the kids on a Florida tour was 2, but the big one was number 3. Some of you know that I've been a part time dj for some years now, ki...

Vote Lib Dem. If it’s enough to stop either of the others getting a majority it’ll be a good thing. We all know what we’ll get from Labour. Years of everything still being shit but “it’s not our fault the conservatives did it”. Then the money hose gets turned on and everything is brilliant…. until ...

I’m probably not going to bother voting. I’m not going to pretend I’m happy with the way things have been going, but I’m not sure labour would have done much better or will do in the future. Vote Lib Dem. If it’s enough to stop either of the others getting a majority it’ll be a good thing. We all k...

The rules are probably quite appropriate for the risk, from business insider: According to data from the Federal Aviation Administration, just 163 people were seriously injured by turbulence between 2009 and 2022 — an average of less than 12 people a year. The majority, 129, were crew members. In 20...
