Can anyone tell me what the pump under the nearside front bumper is for and if one can be found as it makes a hell of a noise when I first start up the car..
As people were talking about buildings being flattened I thought I'd look on google maps.. was I shocked when I went to the 2008 view of edge lane and what used to be there compared with now.
The frame that supports the glass on mine is quite rusty so i'm waiting for the day it leaps out of the roof on the motorway and lands on someones bonnet .
You can get the parts for less than a £100. and provided the nuts that join the downpipe to centre section release (unlikely) it shouldn't be much of a problem as someone somewhere should be able to do it for a reasonable price.
There are numerous individuals around here that think they are above the law riding around without tax mot or insurance and licences in some cases and they are never quite sober either. but when you tell the police or the dvla you get the same response every time which is we don't care and goodbye effectively. of course at various times you can see the camera vans about trying to catch someone doing 31 in a 30 or 41 in a 40 trying the best they can to make money and if you complain about it your a bad evil driver..
I was lucky with my one in so much as the batteries had leaked all over the board and destroyed any chances that a dead short could occur and ignite the car.
Its all well and good to say legalise this that and everything but most people don't have to put up with the drugged up tossers who think they are the hardest things since time began. and when a half a dozen or two of there mates/customers/general arseholes turn up it tends to limit what you would like to do to them. and don't get me started on councils police etc they just don't give a dam unless of course its the users themselves that are god forbid being picked on...
Maybe because when I went up there to get some stuff from him he said he would buy my car from me if ever I wanted to sell it. and so what with the constant vandalism from the druggies I thought lets give him a call and see what he says and unsurprisingly he promised me several times he was coming for the car and fetching a trailer etc but after waiting in for him he never appeared and there wasn't even a phone call to say he cant make it or it wasn't worth the effort. so that's why my cage was rattled.
