Another had a 220GTI a few years later; fairly well used but seemed pretty solid and reliable. They had a lovely airy feel with the low window line and dash, and the Roverisation of the Honda architecture with the wood and leather worked very well. Definitely the car that really kept Rover up there. Basically a Honda of course.
I worked for a Citroen/Seat dealer in the mid 90s and got to drive a lot of these that had been taken in part exchange. Back then Seats were shit in every respect so they must have been trader in to Citroens. I guess that was when the turbo diesels were becoming a thing here and the French had that market sorted.

I posted one of these James Hoffman mashups a couple of weeks ago. The creator's original channel has been reinstated by Youtube so here's another. They amuse me.

At least he now knows what his blood-curdling "I'm falling to my death" howl/scream sounds like....

Looks more like a cam snapping or releasing from the crack to me. There’s a hell if a lot of fake climbing gear available cheaply on the internet that looks the part until something like this happens

These things also have a lifespan and a load limit, like if you fall on one of these cams some say you should dispose of them and not reuse anymore

My climber mate spends an inordinate amount of money on climbing headwear, rotating stuff out very regularly.

I have an excellent collection of barely used carabiners in the shed :lol:

I like the way you have to enter via a tunnel to get into the tunnel proper. Most impressive.
