Soak her with lube.

I moved the wall box from the left of the garage door

To the right

And it works - not bad for someone who struggles to change light bulbs.

How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Your fleet running reports
I pondered a night drive then remembered I haven't replaced a(nother) headlight bulb
I don't know if it's really the done thing atm anyway

Re: Your fleet running reports
I went for a short drive at the weekend. If you’re just in your own car and not interacting with anyone else I don’t see it’s a problem at the moment ?
Re: Your fleet running reports
The roads being quiet and lovely weather made me think going for a drive would be a great idea. Alone, of course. There seems to be a backlash against people leaving the house, but surely you can't catch Coronavirus if you don't get out of your car?

Best make the most of it, I reckon the way idiots are abusing it by all gathering together outside we will go on a full lockdown.
Can you imagine if this happened in the summer? Every idiot would be packed together on the beach.

North Wales beaches were packed this weekend like it was a summer bank holiday.Mito Man wrote: Mon Mar 23, 2020 10:08 am Best make the most of it, I reckon the way idiots are abusing it by all gathering together outside we will go on a full lockdown.

Also went to the beach yesterday for some essential dog walking with my dad, luckily only 5 cars in total - I was surprised that the little cafe was open though as it’s only open during peak season usually, probably hoping that we would have a Wales type turnout

Is that a modified Skoda Roomster in the background? 

Left over crest; tightens.
Re: Your fleet running reports
I don’t think so, wheels seem standard to me looking at pics online.
Has made me realise I haven’t seen one in a very long time.

Re: Your fleet running reports
It's a Scout, which is to a Roomster as a Dune is to a Polo.
Nice location

Re: Your fleet running reports
MOT expired 22nd Feb on the Peugeot
First time I've ever missed an MOT date, oh well will be sorted once all this blows over.
Doesn't need anything and will happily pass an MOT, might be an issue getting one right now though

Re: Your fleet running reports
Merc update - it will do over 40mpg without any great trouble on the motorway at 80. It'll do better than that at 75 and better still at 70; at one point I was predicted 750 miles for the full tank without hyper-miling. Maybe I should keep a spreadsheet .
Picked up a set of 18" alloys (from a CLS, which seems to have very specific offsets which are only shared with some SL wheels) and Pirelli Sottozero tyres on for £500 which seems excellent value; other sets I was watching on eBay were well over a grand.

Did have one accident in it, though - the roads may be quiet but a lot of the people using them are stupid it seems. After avoiding many swerves and bits of randomness, a bloke in a Zafira tried to turn right from the middle (straight-on) lane of a roundabout as I was taking the straight on exit. The mark on my car starts towards the rear of the passenger side front door, so fuck knows why he kept turning into me. Fortunately Merc paint is tough and Zafira bumpers aren't so it'll buff out
