Omega General Help / Re: Grumpy Diesel getting silly now... :-(

« on: 10 December 2014, 19:39:00 »

  Instead of putting it into P, why not do N and use the handbrake? you may be able to very slightly pick the revs up when dropping back into D

Severalyears ago was travelling home along the A14 towards Bury St edmunds. A long line of trucks all heading for the sugar beet factory and the one on the end pulled out to pass. Oh no, a long wait for this to happen as the line of trucks was around twenty vehicles long. 60 mph we were doing behind this one and he passed the lot and pulled back in. It was a JCB fasttrac with a 40ft tipping trailer full of beet!!!

General Discussion Area / New road tax rules

« on: 01 December 2014, 19:47:40 »

  Here is a good one..... one of our ABS members, James W was invited to display his Police Omega on the ABS stand at the NEC. He visits his local Post Office to tax the car on the 10th. Could not do it online as it threw up error saying reg was invalid. Taxed the car, did the NEC with us, on the 20th, surrenders tax and sorns the car. Gets letter through post from ANPR with intent to prosicute as he went through check point on way home on 16th and they got no tax message. Checked his sorn and the DVLA site had started SORN from 1st November, 9 days before he taxed the car and refunding him the total amount paid
says he will go to court to contest it as it is DVLA,s cock up

General Discussion Area / Re: Ebay new overseas shipping service

« on: 13 November 2014, 06:58:14 »

  I am enrolled into it and have had three sales so far. Ok, two of them have not paid up so far, but you only list the postage as a normal UK shipped item and send to the hub in Derbyshire I think it is. The overseas buyer has to pay the additional cost and any taxes on top which ebay list to them on the final purchase invoice. Makes things easier as you dont have to sort it out yourself
