Although I have to say, old people are much more of a nuisance. Caravaners most of them ;D

With, what I believe are called, "Degs". What ever they are. We don't have that problem in NotReading. Obviously. ::)

Ya means 'Kerravans' ... and err ... 'Dags' ... surely? ::)

UK. Gower peninsular and the worms head. Northern Coast of Cornwall. Specifically Padstow lifeboat, Trevose Head.

Now you're talking, and less than an hour's towing time from here :y :y :y
Deservedly Britain's first area of natural beauty, we visit (at least) several times each year! ;)

Isle of Wight, Blue Anchor Bay near Minehead and the Malvern Hills area 8)

Given those rear donuts where rock hard on the shelf in my garage over the winter, and are now quite squidgy  to press a thumb into, I'm guessing yes. Poly does get softer with heat.

...as the back end if my car is all over the place. (Relatively speaking) and explains the more compliant ride in warm weather.

Gave the TD a good blast along the M4 to/from work today ... first time in months, and felt that the arse end was maybe a bit ... err ... loose.

Still, sod it ... sheer relaxed comfort, cruising effortlessly into the sunset listening to that silky-smooth BMW 'straight-six' in full cry. Enjoyed every second of the experience! :y

Sod the 'soft' polys ... ;D

Traipsing over to Chesham and paying WIM £100 every time goes against the grain.

Seek and thou shall find: http://www.blackboots.co.uk/tyre-fitting-centres.php

Nearest to you are: http://www.fcmwheelalignment.co.uk/# in Bristol, or: http://www.carsontyre.co.uk/ in Melksham.
Both WIM-approved, who'll use WIM specs.

General Car Chat / Re: OOF myth busters. Flipping master cylinder seals?
« on: 30 June 2014, 00:09:36 »
Only had the seals invert on our old Astra 1.7TD van.

For a day or two after, there'd seemingly be more pedal travel than usual.
Gradually, the pedal travel improved to 'normal' I put the condition down to weak seals ::)

Never experienced this problem on any of the three Omegas that we've owned! ;)

What's helicoiling and how much would a cheap sucker cost?     3---  :-* lol

Got mine for 50-odd quid from Amazon. Paid for itself now.
Remember that the TD's sump capacity is 6.5 litres ;)
