Love a good Hubnut video myself.

I think it's his fault I'm running about in an £800 mini...

Hub Nut - a man with a discerning eye and a great taste in cars. Take a look at the 5:33 point in this video

Like watching Hubnut, he gets cars a lot of people think are rubbish. Suppose if he had modern cars his channel would also be rubbish.

Quite ironic in a way isn't it.

I'm confused that he's got a 'triangle of doom' on his windscreen in his 75 - a pet hate of his (and mine).

I don't have that in mine. I remember doing some digging on these fine forums back when I needed new wiper blades and found that the actual factory fit blades called for a slightly longer drivers blade than the passenger, and that most 'chuck your reg in and order' blades were technically not the correct size.

Can anyone confirm as I need to order new blades now actually.

This will be interesting, he's pretty straight up when it comes to reviewing a car. Tells it like it is, no flannel, that's why I like his stuff. Looks like he's got some sorting out to do, that ignition would soon feel like a pain in the a.r.s.e.
