I have edited this topic to take out certain references.There was no need for it and we live and let live.Personal comments of a derogatory nature will not be tolerated on this forum. I very much doubt anyone would want this to happen to their car so hoping it has to someone else isnt on. We may not agree with all that happened A LONG TIME AGO but everyone has moved on since then. Personal grudges are NOT to be brought into this forum/site. A message for the others that i know will read this, Thank you for removeing bigals comments.I know it wasnt for our benefit, but i thank you anyway. Thread closed.

ahhhh..thank you :wub:

sorry, my mistake. kinda didnt sink in the 2.3 bit!.. doh...gonna crawl back under my rock

You have a PD engine.oil used must be for a PD engine.

why is it, whenever we post a post for someone in particular, every bugger reads it :unsure:

very true, thry didnt get like it overnight, and i know you werent having a go, i bloody deserve it though. As for reaching the 2 yr mark, feels good.Im no longer a probationer!.I was counting down the days a week before hand and being very careful driving.lol. going down this morn to get the traking done, they were shutting up shop when i went and picked her up yesterday, 65 quid for two new tyres, havent looked to see what they have put on her, but she only has 14" tyres on her anyway.

actually, i have now held a full licence for 2 years and exactly 5 days. I passed on the 10th march 2006. In milaege terms? she was on 98 thousand when i bought her and passed her MOT the day i picked her up, she is now on 109 thousand and not due an MOT till the beginning of June i believe. i estimate, she will be on, between 111k and 112k when she is next due an MOT. I drive 220 miles a week doing school runs.Hence why i am looking for a diesel.

Mary, i am very sure that those amongst us who have a toe fetish will be very happy with your pic,, ( not me i hasten to add :unsure: ) you look like you got DINKY feet :lol: :lol: GREGERS! you edit this post again im gonna spend all night editing yours! :lol:

Teresa!! you promised never to tell!!... does this mean i get to tell ALL that happened when we shared a shower?? :lol:

Holy crap, never knew so many peeps wanted to take a pop at me! :lol: :unsure: but please, not the cane this time..it kinda leaves marks. :lol: as for me plane, im still learning on a buddy lead. bit like dual controls when learning to drive :lol: shes a trainer plane, one you learn on, there are many different kinds and sizes out there.

I was being polite :lol: but yup, along them lines hun ... plus a few more choice words. :lol: Its an elation buddy i fly, there is a pic of her in the photography section.Didnt do any flying today.Did some last sunday in the wind and it was bloomin ace :P i promise, wont do it again. you mortals would be just fine without me. :P

Not the point though?? if that *bleep bleep bleepity bleep bleep* hadnt of been such a *bleeeeeeeeeeeeep* then i would still have her.but since that *bleep* was such a *bleeeping bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep* i dont.

believe me gregers, i know.its lucky i did check when i did.I would never of been able to forgive myself if it had of gone bang .. To be honest, i feel bloody awful over it all.I know its all sorted now and no harm done, but the what ifs..... and i cant believe ive been so bloody stupid.

very true.,* sigh* do you know, she would of been paid off now? gutting.it really is.

Not as shocked as i was.The tyres have been changed, a friend called up the local garage and told me to have the car there, picked the car up just after 5.One tyre worn to the core, guy said it wouldnt of lasted much longer the way it was and then when it would of gone, it would of just disintergrated.I feel angry with myself that i put my kids in danger, just by not doing a simple check!. Why i havent treated this car like i did the Gal, i dont know.Im just thankful the tyre didnt go whilst i was driving the kids around.

So there i was, thinking id just give the car a check over whilst parked on the field today ( where i fly) , thought id check the tyres seeing as i havent checked them in about 11k miles, which is how much ive travelled since i bought the blooming thing. yup, rears look pretty damn good, loads of tread on them, no uneven wear and impressed with them. Then i check the fronts, first glance they look good, tread on them by the looks of it, but then i get down and run my hands round the front right, least i tried to, very uneven wear, bald as coot on the inside to the point the metal is sticking out all around the inside on the bit between the tread ( what tread?) and the top of the side wall.Bollo**s!, practically shredded my hands when i checked. so i go round to check front left, again, tread on the outside, smooth as a babys bum on the inside.In fact, both front tyres are highly illegal, the tread is below legal limit and the front right is dangerous. when i had the gal, i checked the tyres each week, with the veccy, i havent checked them once since i bought the car. So, today i have learnt a hard expensive lesson. Tomorrow, two front tyres required ASAP., tracking i think checked also when you check your tyres, run your hands around them, dont just take a quick look as gospel.

welcome, yup, bling is bling, and one of the members has just put some yummy wheels on his and lowered his gal a weeeeeeeee bit, have a gander in the customising your car section.deaconesse i think it was,

Oh my gawd......

not that desparate ... really :lol: :lol: :16: Nice one nick bagpuss is banned germalene.
