'Pablo' will be getting a replacement cam belt very shortly. A worthwhile bit of insurance at 111,000 miles

But Sir! Who can neglect the claim of the first Fiat Multipla?

I can't complain, but I do feed it E5, mostly Tesco Momentum. A hangover from the 911 days

Well, I am afraid the daily driver / recycling run transport died ignominiously last week. It was a 2000 is VW Caddy in white and rust, then one morning it snapped its timing belt on the driveway and munched up the sturdy 1.9 litre diesel powerhouse. Now this promoted the V8R to daily driver...

Having spent the weekend in Liverpool I can confirm that the ladies in Hooters are at a high level of attractiveness :love:

My Caddy has died. I need a sub-£1,500 van (Car-derived, not a whopping great Transit) quickly. Anyone have one or know of one? Attractiveness declines as the distance from Cambridge increases.

I like your mum. She seems a sensible woman.

My V8R cost me about £5,000 some four or five years back. Since then I have spent at least the same again on arresting the swift descent into the scrapyard that it was on when I found it, to the point where it is now very close to perfect. (Well 'good enough' - I am not a concours obsessive). I...

Hi everybody. It's a long time since I have been here, evidenced by how out of date my profile image is - the daily driver Skoda has been replaced by a daily driver Caddy. I decided I needed a dashcam on the V8R mostly for continental driving. I always feared a collision with some random Frog...

Time was when this would have been unremarkable. After all #296 lived here for three or four years. But out walking today I spotted possibly the first FRP I have seen for a good few years. We have a Millennium currently rotting away at the local filling station though. And the FRP still looked...

Apologies if it has been posted previously, I only drop in from time to time now. https://www.facebook.com/dodgydriversuk/videos/335973623627748/ XIIVVX

Thanks, it's good having a quick scan through what's going on. Pumas are becoming a rare sight on the UK roads these days. I always smile when I see one, and they still look better than 95% of current cars.

I have a lot of sympathy for that, but at the time needs must. We had ailing rellies 200 miles distant and we needed a motorway cruiser. Bought a 2.0D X-Type Jaguar at 113,000 and ran it to 260,000 at which point it was killed by a deer. Then a 2.7V6D S-Type Jaguar that I bought at about...

Ex-owner here. The one who sold it to the twat that parted it out and never really forgave myself. How is it looking now?

Hard to imagine the rear looking worse than it did. I'll take a look.
