Re: The ebay thread

Very cheap Cayenne Turbo…. if you think a banana-shaped turd is suitable as a grab handle :?

Re: Your fleet running reports

Hmm. I guess you’d still need to do the same thing, removing the sticky gunk, if you wanted paint to stick / not be all lumpy.

Re: Your fleet running reports

My headlining is exactly the same, not got around to doing anything about it. Seriously tempted to just strip the foam and paint it black.

I think Dave! meant that in some circumstances, by pure luck, the crap in the lines is complementary and improves the taste in a way that’s unique to that establishment.

Re: Test drive report

I had this one time with an MOT - got home and realised they’d put in the wrong mileage. Phoned them straight away and they were able to correct it. It was far easier than I expected, I was braced for a series of “computer says no” conversations.

Re: Dangerous beers...

It’s Friday, I don’t have much to do this afternoon, and the weather is nice at last. I might pop out to Aldi and see what they’ve got 8-)

Then come back on here about 6pm and do a drunken brocco-style rant :lol:

Re: Test drive report

The mileage discrepancy seems to just be one MOT with no mileage recorded. All the others are consistent.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Temperature & pressure will go hand in hand to an extent. Assuming the coolant is water-based (?) it’ll stay liquid to quite high temperature as long as the pressure is kept high too. I was initially assuming the temperature would be similar to an engine but that’s not necessarily true. We’re no...

But are those seals substantially different to those on the shaft of a water pump on an IC engine ?

Re: Why are road trips so alluring?

Calculated that driving to my dad's instead of flying saves about £3-500 and a tonne of CO2 compared to flying. How far is that, and is that based on several people? I did some rough calcs and it seemed that flying would be more CO2 efficient for travelling alone for Italy. IIRC Copenhagen, and it’...

Re: OJ Simpson

If it’s particularly about dangerous beers, I have to recommend that 10% trucker lager that Lidl had recently.
