"Note - he hasn't matured, he's a bit of a buffoon." and the first two pics :lol: The pic where Buster has the tennis ball 8-) From being left crated unsupervised to being out in that country 8-) He's certainly a character :lol: Buster is the boss, hence he always ends up with the ball.

I don't post a lot on here but I need little excuse to post pictures of my dogs! Buster (Springer) is just over four years old. Diesel (lab) is 2.5. Buster has always been 'my' dog whereas Diesel was always my partner's dog. Diesel didn't have the best start to life, his first owner had him crated a...

Lovely wee pup, how goes the healing of your now 2nd youngest pup? Doing great - follow-up xrays today funnily enough showing good healing, and everything is now tight like it should be (in ligament terms. Still only lead walks at the moment but that's OK. Try to walk her at the pace she is willing...

snapped cranks. Hmm, this is the sort of thing which puts me off JLR products. I imagined the occasional electrical quirk, not fundamental issues like cranks snapping :lol: Maybe an iPace would be safer. I do like the iPace. It was good fun to hoon around Knockhill on the Jaguar experience day (a f...

A lovely car and great two car garage

Are the V6 diesel crank issues a common thing, or over-hyped by the internetz? I hear conflicting stories of whether the LR approved used warranty covers snapped cranks.

There was one case of people letting themselves into farmer's fields to park, resulting in the farmer going in with a muck spreader and covering the cars in shit :lol: https://www.fwi.co.uk/news/poll-was-farmer-right-to-spray-slurry-on-parked-car Now I feel stupid - I swear I recall it happening oo...

Well I'm sure that could've been resolved in a more amicable manner :) There's been a lot of issues over bad/inconsiderate parking in the Lakes during the last few weeks. Some of it resulting in emergency vehicles not being able to get through. There was one case of people letting themselves into fa...

Lord knows what is happening to Bottas. A really poor weekend for him. It's becoming an increasingly regular occurrence, you could very easily see LH winning the DC and RB winning the CC on account of having the stronger aggregate driver lineup. Merc may regret not bringing in GR for this season. A...

From what I heard he switched it off but knocked it on again at some point. A mistake nonetheless. Max didn't really deserve to lose his championship lead today, so although it's an unforgiving sport, today it was a just result. I'm happy for Perez, and strangely I felt happy to see Seb up there. W...

Was that the incident near Hartside Cafe?

I'm really sorry to hear that Dave He's a handsome boy.

100 Pole Positions, surely!?!

Oh yeah

Those hand car wash places will sort that out. The tfr they use is basically diluted acid :lol: I was thinking that - originally I thought it was their spray that fucked the 3m vinyl however it was just the bonnet so we deduced it was the extra heat from my chipped turbo. The bonnet scoop stickers ...

If we didn't live at opposite ends of the country yes!, plenty of green lanes round here though. I drove Boggle Hole in my A6 Allroad a few years ago. Took that down quite a lot of green lanes without considering it green-laning at the time. Anyway, cheap 4wds are great fun. Get something Japanese ...

Volvo's are a good shout. Although for some reason I have it in my mind that the XC70 has a huge running cost. Skoda is also a good idea. The estate doesn't need to be huge MK5 Golf or slightly larger. I think the XC70s have the weak Geartronic gearbox. How about a Jag XF Sportbrake? 3.0 V6 diesel ...

Just be careful not to spill the whisky.

Felt a slight vibration, then before I could fully read the error message advising me to slow down to 50 mph due to a puncture it turned into a rather big vibration. Weirdly it didn’t fail where it blistered but half the tyre wall came apart - still managed to nurse it 40 miles back home. Guess I c...

Another new car (not mine either :cry: ) My OH and I fancied buying a car to tinker with and potentially use on track-days. Amy loves EK9 Civics/DC2 Integras but these aren't exactly cheap! We went through various options but the only one we both agreed on was an R53 Cooper S. Spec/model-wise, it wa...

Sorry, it took a while to type out
