General Car Chat / CLK 430
« on: 21 February 2017, 12:21:53 »
Convince me to buy this or not 
Its looks too good to be true and the ad dont explain much 
I know Tilbo has a similar car .. cant remember if he has the soft top one though
430
A lot of car for the money or run away from this particular one

General Discussion Area / Who's binning Sky
« on: 26 January 2017, 19:33:49 »
Quote
In response, a Sky spokesperson said: "Despite our best efforts to reach a sensible agreement, we, like many other platforms and broadcasters across Europe, have found the price expectations for the Discovery portfolio to be completely unrealistic.
"Sky has a strong track record of understanding the value of the content we acquire on behalf of our customers, and as a result we've taken the decision not to renew this contract on the terms offered[/highlight].
We will be binning the sky box as we watch the discovery channels mostly
Bet BT are rubbing their hands

General Car Chat / Vectra estate ?
« on: 25 January 2017, 21:42:34 »
Been thinking about a 2004 VAUXHALL VECTRA 3.2i V6 Elite Auto . I presume the v6 in this one is totally different from the omega Looks good value for money and in near mint condition .
So any pitfalls to know about ?
Its not the omega replacement , just a second car .

General Car Chat / Another Year
« on: 23 January 2017, 16:28:28 »
The Omega passed its MOT with a few minor advisories .
Slight corrosion on rear brake pipe , easily sorted .
Sill covers fitted
Engine cover fitted
Engine light on , nothing new just the cat sensors
I think the mot man is covering his ass
Happy the old bus has another year under its belt Oh and thanks to Serek

Any product recommendation for root killing please ? Its for a previously well established privet hedge that has been removed from my neighbour adjoining . He has had most of the roots removed but just want to make sure that on my side the hedge does not re-grow
