Evening all evening Andy, I've been on train sim duty driving a HST from York to Kings Cross, 2 hours 10 minutes in actual time.....and forgot to press the record button probably due to a tipple or two for medicinal purposes as my backs complaining from installing the greenhouse glass.

We dismantled a 28' x 10' greenhouse last year, and still have to put it up! I feel your pain.

Renault Espace, lovely car, turbo oil seal blew resulting in an engine runaway destroying it (guy driving it didn't have the nouse to stall it)
Peugeot 407, anti pollution system went west and the car kept dropping into "get you home mode", would have cost more than the car was worth to put right
Peugeot E7 (taxi version of an Expert van), absolutely horrible thing to drive!

Morning all, misty morning here but the sun is just about making an appearance and looks like another nice day on the cards.

Funny how experiences affect our view on vehicles I had a Peugeot 405 sti bought it cheaply with no mot as it had been standing unused because of owners illness. It went straight through the test never let me down and apart from servicing cost me about £30 in parts in 4 years of ownership.
Most unreliable/troublesome car ever owned was without doubt a Rover SDi V8 it was just horrible in every way. BL at it's worst.
Cheers

Cool

Morning everyone.

Blue sky and sunshine here today with a frost last night.

Got to get the glove box refitted in Banana, Matt left it off in case I had a problem on the way home yesterday.

Sorting out the “New” multi car insurance policy that Lancaster are offering. Only go with them as they gave me a good price on the V8.
