Say your cambelt fails and your engine blows up - can you claim on your insurance for the cost of the repairs ?

JD Vance has rolled back somewhat on the $5000 promise...

Worrying that he it the voice of reason...ish

Christ Gav you're cursed... any chance the folks downstairs have invited them to stay as a final "F U"

We have a halting side near here and at least 4 or 5 days a week, they burn large amounts of house clearance crap, including Tyres sending thick flumes of black smoke over the town - AND the M1 ...

As I age I'm getting so fucking fed up with idiots like this on the road. Loud exhausts, pop and bang maps, drifting, donuts. Keep it for the track.


Agreed - there's a absolute tool who lives about 5 or 6 doors down who has an Audi S3 and he each morning, he leaves his house and hammers ...

i think it takes a special kind of weird brain to enjoy the idea of squeezing into these spaces for fun - i do not have that brain.


I don't think it's as black and white as that. Go to the Dan yr Ogof show caves in Wales or the Blue John Cavern in Castleton for example; they're tourist ...

[NorotiousRev]I'd never do a Speed Course - I'd always take the points and the fine. I'm not going to be bloody lectured to for 3 hours just to avoid 3 points...[/NotoriousRev]

That fucking sucks Tim.

Never had a car or bike taken but I can sympathise with the ‘fear’ after a break-in

Scant comfort but it does pass in time
