General Discussion Area / Re: Licence renewal...
« on: 02 March 2025, 09:15:19 »
Weird thing is that I can drive a bus that's over thirty years old on my car licence, and yet they took my PCV licence away at seventy. 
I keep looking at my drive way, and wonder whether that Routemaster on my bucket list will fit

Nothing implied there James, it's just that the grey matter is unable to download the relevant info, could possibly be down to having too many cars

I'm afraid the details of the build are lost in the mists of time now...probably 10-12 years ago. It's the white ex Met car out of the scrap yard, and you may well remember the full on strip down that you did, after which it still wouldn't run, so we gave it the DNR order. And that was when DAZ was flat out breaking cars, and he had a low mile 3.0 engine which he spent a fair bit of time going through it on the basis of whatever it needs, do it. And when dealing with Daz, itemised bills weren't really an issue, as he just knew his stuff and cash was King then. 
So the car has been trouble free for all these years, and I guess crap happens on occasions.

Know how you feel, I'm heading that way also, possibly this is the last year that I'll be mucking around with my three Omegas. The coming April VED hikes are the only thing that's holding me back at the moment....but have already cancelled the tax on one car and the second one is imminent, as common sense is starting to kick in much to the relief of SWMBO.

Omega General Help / Oil cooler cleaning etc.
« on: 03 January 2025, 14:33:18 »
Just a quickie... I've just acquired a couple of very good oil coolers, one stainless and the other the older type, and looking at them they are in really good condition. Both having come from well cared for low mileage cars, and although they look pretty clean, I was thinking could they be cleaned a little more before being put in the spares shed....any tips would be greatly appreciated. TIA
