That's most profitable one in Kingston, wife used to live down road by the phone box art work things.

Its clearly designed as an income source, rather than traffic management.

Fitted a new turbo boost pipe to the Mondeo.  It should have been a 5 minute job but....

Only two jubilee clips... what could possibly go wrong

Just couldn't get the pipe to slip on at the inlet end, grease, heat and limited access didn't help much either.

Ground the lip off the rear discs, as measuring them showed they were still within spec. New rear pads, hens teeth retaining pins and anti rattle springs, all genuine GM. 
Will check front pads tomorrow and probably change them too.

[Stige]

New spark plugs, new bumper, new front fender and timing kit today, then get it MOTd and put it up for sale.
Oh and one tie rod end.

New set of GM pads on the front. Back to work for a few nights now,so no more work for a while.

All done and dusted. Put on the winter tires aswell on top of it.

[VXL V6]

Repaired the alternator and refitted to one of them.

Caved the windscreen in, dented the bonnet, deformed the bumper and smashed the number plate......all in a nights work.

Oops, hope all ok.

Sounds like quite a thump. Airbag deployment?
I don’t have to tell you that aches and pains will probably appear over the next few days. Maybe a bit of a cough if the airbag went off. Try and take it a bit easy, no building extensions or stripping locos until at least the weekend.

I would estimate the two wheeled object which was impacted to weigh around 80kg all told, no air bag deployment........and one less bicycle on the road.

Including rider?

And, of course, as we always say, a picture paints a thousand words.
Except if you use photobucket, then it just says ‘Pay up’.
