General Discussion Area / New Years' first good deed?
« on: 01 January 2008, 03:55:45 »
We had a few friends over tonight. Went outside at 2am to throw away the rubbish. New-looking Honda stops next to me, inside are a well dressed middle-aged woman with a 10 years old boy. She opens the window and says she needed my help, she is stuck without petrol and wanted £4 to get her home. I have been approached before by beggars with made-up stories about bus-fairs etc, but she was well-dressed, well-spoken, and had a new car... plus I had pity on the kid. So I went inside, got £5 from my wallet and went back out and gave it to her.

I see bus drivers do this all the time - leave the bus with the engine running and the passengers on-board.

To the owner of the Jeep Cherokee:

General Discussion Area / Total Vauxhall Magazine
« on: 13 December 2007, 22:15:44 »
When Total Vauxhall magazine was first published a few years a go, I bought a couple of copies.

Did not find it very interesting at the time, it was mainly about blue LED backlit boost pressure gauges and oilpipeline-size rear boxes.

However I did buy the December issue, and was pleasantly surprised. There is still a lot of the former, but also some articles which I found of interest:

In the main feature they pitched five Lotus Carltons (all black, for some reason... were they made in other colours as well?) against the new VRX8. I am not telling which was faster....

Then they have a ongoing project where they are transplanting a 3.0L engine from an R-Reg Omega into an old cavalier 4x4.....

And for hotel21, there is a piece about Vectras in the service of Scottish Traffic Police....

General Discussion Area / Overturned lorry....
« on: 11 December 2007, 23:17:00 »
...on an internal slip road leading to the lorry car park at the services on the M1 near J2. How can you overturn a lorry in a car park? The 'heavy' load was not to blame, it was only hay...  :o

Please suggest more options, but we are talking mods here not repairs, i.e. 'I changed the crank sensor and now I can get the engine started' does not count....
