you just get lucky, had to go do a feature on a guy who bought one of these a few weeks ago & i thought i would be a bit cheeky & ask if i could have a go, couldn't believe it when he said it needs petrol so he would drive it to fill up & he let me drive it back to its home
F*****g hell was it quick
he owns a prestige car hire company & if you need to ask you can't afford it

Omega General Help / Re: Help heater pipe
« on: 30 April 2013, 18:42:00 »
matrix pipe has a lip on it & the plastic connector has a groove, so press the hose onto the aly pipe until the groove goes over the lip then slide the lock ring into position, make sure none of the tags on the end of the connector are damaged, if they are it will never stay in position & will keep popping off under pressure. Only other options are to replace the hose or cut the plastic connector off the hose & secure the hose over the pipe with a jubilee clip

« on: 30 January 2013, 08:15:33 »
London has its moments
people moaning about Romanians comming here on mass next year, i thought they were already here as they are at every road junction offering to clean your windscreen,
Muslims bleating on about booze but most corner shops in the east of the crapital are run by them & religion seems to go out the window when cash is involved
drunken east europeans just seem to pass out anywhere, have nearly run 2 over so far this year as they sleep in the middle of the roads
high streets which used to attract shoppers from all over are now pound shops & charity shops
had a couple of paramedics live down our street, they had of enough of London & went to work in Dorset, back within 8 months as they couldn't handle picking up fallen pensioners all day long
you also look after your tools more because if you come in for a cuppa they not be where you left them
most people who moan about London either don't live there or are about to move on
and we have the worlds biggest car park surrounding us so not all bad

Jessops stuff was always well over priced, nearly bought a high end SLR from them years ago but it was £800 cheaper online & they would not price match
