General Discussion Area / Boris in trouble again

« on: 08 August 2018, 04:47:36 »

I see Boris has ruffled the feathers of a few of his party again .   A Tory peer has said he should be booted out of the party for his comments on the burka . . . . is Boris not entitled to his opinion then ?

I wonder what faith the moaning peer follows ?  . . . .   not too difficult to guess that one

General Car Chat / How Roomy is a Superb

« on: 13 July 2018, 10:29:20 »

May be rising up the ranks at work  . . .job will come with a car 

Skoda Superb has been mentioned  . . .as I am 6' 5"  and not a lightweight  just wondering how roomy they are in the front .

Best to do a trial "sitting" I know  . . .but just wondering if any Oofers  have one & their verdict.

Or any other suggested  suitable make /model along the superb budget figure ?

Omega General Help / Leather seat refurb ?

« on: 21 June 2018, 10:06:18 »

Hi all    . .  The black leather seats in the CDX although fairly good condition, now have a "shine" to them , where as originally they were a matt finish I believe, as I can see from unworn areas .  The drivers seat is by far the worst for this "shine"  As car is on 195K  they had a bit of use 

So just wondering if  any Oofers have been able to remedy this  & is there is a product/cleaner/ treatment they have used  that will return the seats to there original matt finish & remove the glaze?

TIA for any advice  forwarded . . .rather than me  buying & trialing lots of different products

General Car Chat / engine under tray on MOT ?

« on: 19 June 2018, 21:38:25 »

Talking with my neighbour tonight  . . .he seems to think that all vehicles fitted with an engine under tray  . . .as is the Omega . . .will fail the new MOT rules if not in place when tested .

As mine on my CDX is not there , I have had a "google"  but nothing found 

Anyone know about this  . . or is Mr. Neighbour talking  "Dangle Berries"

General Discussion Area / Eurovision "Live" proved a sham

« on: 13 May 2018, 08:55:43 »

Ha ha  . . just watching the news regarding the stage invasion of the UK performance at last nights Euro song contest.
A guy from the audience wearing  back pack  gets on stage , runs up to the UK performer , grabs her microphone that she is blissfully "singing live" into ,  he runs off with the mic . . . . & guess what . . .  the artists "live" vocals continue as normal .
Not surprising nowadays really  . . .almost all of these  " incredibly talented" performers are unable to perform "live".   Seems like it is the norm nowadays sadly

Thankfully , no one hurt , as the guy was wearing a back pack  . .. this could have been far far worse

General Discussion Area / Bookmakers . .scum of the earth

« on: 15 April 2018, 11:17:09 »

Cannot believe this ... yesterday was Grand national day  . . .probably the biggest betting day on the UK calender. Where everyone & his dog have a little flutter on the big race .
The race was off at 5.15 pm , so likely that a lot of the winners who had money to collect , would go in to the shops this morning.
I have just been to collect a small wager for my grandaughter who picked the winner, only to be told , "Sorry we cannot pay out today , the little float of money we are allowed to keep in the shop overnight has gone already" 

It seems they banked the vast majority of money taken yesterday & cannot replenish until Monday .

Only one to describle this shower of Shi*e . . .W*nkers !

General Car Chat / Alloy wheels & insurance ?

« on: 08 April 2018, 15:40:45 »

My CDX is now fitted with late Elite/MV6 VX  6 spoke 17" alloys instead of the 16" CDX alloys it came with.

Insurance quote is asking are the wheels "Non Standard"  or "Optional Extra" ?

I am guessing to be totally honest these wheels are in fact "Non Standard" to this car , but this increases the quote by over £200 to nearly £600 

Quote as "optional extra" & quote stays the same as a standard car   

Any thoughts ?
