  1. Just don't post the links....even if some of the other girls on here are begging for it :o
  2. Don't think she's fussy.... :wacko:
  3. Nope it doesn't check your pics !
  4. Now you are deliberatley trying to worry me....it won't work. Barclays have enough on the BOE and their major banking buddies to blackmail their way out of anything. Its the dodgy ex-building societies that now think they are banks that are going to get the wake-up call.
  5. "anymore"......wouldn't this indicate that a previous love existed. :wacko: Would still rather have the handy 2nd glove box.....she's got enough padding anyway. :o
  6. Black ones are the best.....if you can get them.. :wacko:
  7. Technically this would be classed as "driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence". Would never stand up in court, they could not prove who was driving it and would be very unlikely to pursue it. I doubt they would even bother checking. " As it stands if you name the driver and they deny it then you get done for "failing to provide the information as to who was driving". The responsibility is on the keeper of the vehicle to name the driver and provide proof if required....yep I thought this was for the police and courts, as it is in every other crime under English Law. A true example, The police show you a photograph of your car exceeding a speed limit. ( it is assumed you had not previously reported the car as stolen ). The driver is clearly visible and is obviously not you, ( different race, sex etc ). Can you name the driver....no....then you get prosecuted for "failing to provide the information as to who was driving". Its that simple.
  8. Actually I might buy my mum a provisional licence.....and the wife and the dog. Excellent idea from the frogs
  9. Came accross this hidden away. ;) Labour B*st*rds Never heard about this change to the law before :19:
  10. Still think its a dash out job to get to top heater flap. I would wait to see what vagcom says...should indicate flap fault...probably. Still toying with the idea of retro fitting the second glove box in mine and getting rid of the airbag.
  11. It had to happen sometime.. ;)
  12. Sounds good....go for it ! p.s. Had enough of the Shogun then ?
  13. Probably clocked ! Check for obvious wear and tear when you visit.........bet you its dodgy !
  14. All the Shalaxy variants need reinforced tyres. :23: This may not be mentioned in the MK1 handbook but is marked on the vehicles ( look at either nearside or offside door pillar or inside the fuel flap, or possibly in the glove comnpartment ). Also don't confuse "Reinforced" with the load rating it is not the same... ;) the minimum load rating recommended is at least 95. Reinforced tyres typically are inflated to a greater pressure than non-reinforced tyres. Use of non-reinforced tyres will lead to the deformation and/or collapse of the tyre sidewall when cornering in turn leading to loss of steering and control.....obviously this is not good ! Remember it doesn't matter how good your brakes, steering and suspension are, or how good a mechanical condition the rest of the vehicle is in, everything relies on the tyres ( normally they are the only part of the vehicle in contact with the ground ). The fact I am running on slicks at the moment is irrelevant.. :19:
  15. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=200154800443 or http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=290162661909
  16. I have also heard that the control gear for HID lamps can interfere with airbags !
  17. I think item 2 is the heating control flap
  18. I would advise that if you can find anyway to join your mum in New Zealand do it now ! Wish I had emigrated to Australia or New Zealand years ago when I had the chance. This country has gone down the pan, full of layabouts and scroungers and now were importing them ! Sorry just my rant....... There is a policy to try and build on "brownland" wherever possible ( obviously you can give a bung to the local councillors to get around this ), however it should be noted that "brownland" includes all garden areas not just where a building was previously. Therefore the last figures show that almost a 1/5th of new property is built on what was effectively a garden area before. These mini-green belts are being covered up with flats and "affordable housing"...... This affordable housing is snapped up for Buy To Let...... Definition of typical buy to let arrangement.. Uncle Jack has a couple of bob spare, buys a house here and lets it out. Uncle Jack's "relation" comes into the country...signs on the dole and rents Uncle Jacks house. The money given to layabouts on the dole affords a much better standard of living than in their home country. The tax payer pays for the rent ( and uncle Jack's mortgage ! ) Uncle Jack buys another house........ The builders are also making a killing from this demand for housing....again from the taxpayer. Used the name "Jack" so as not to offend....we all know what the real names would be.
  19. Just a thought on HID lights in general. Can you flash them to warn other drivers of your presence ( yeh ok...in reality to say hello or warn of speed trap ). I thought they took some time to "warm up". Surely this is a legal requirement of the MOT ?
  20. I'm ok my money is with Barclays and as these are the biggest bunch of crooks out there it is probably the safest place to be. p.s. want to buy some Alliance & Leicester shares.....likely to rocket soon ! p.p.s ........."part withdrawal"......you don't want to keep it all then ?
  21. Change your pollen filter ? Like most smelly things is worse when wet.
  22. We'd noticed.......hardly a REVELATION.
  23. Its a TESTAMENT to the great knowledge contained in this forum that this thread has gone on so long
  24. Apparently from the latest study undertaken .......... The most favoured sexual arrangement amongst married couples is the doggie position.. This is where the husband sits up and begs........ And the wife rolls over and plays dead !
