Title: Revenge
Post by: tunnie on 02 April 2010, 22:30:53
I am going to enjoy this, amount of stick i get on here (all in good faith) useless student, driving 4 pot car, or commonly refereed to as 1/3 of an engine and missing 2 cylinders and 100 bhp, i would just like to share this:

The useless student in the far superior 2.2 Omega with a successful gas conversion i might add  ::) - Dragging the second V6 TB has knackered in as many months back home ;D

(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/803897/Omega/Misc/DSC00704.JPG)

It was started to move it on the the drive back home, sounded very unhealthy, thats no air leak, sounds like valves to me! Smelt rather bad too  :o

Tunnie, watch your post count ;D

Jaime - in all seriousness, really sorry to hear this mate.

I have also had a shit car day (though nowhere near as yours) - unfortunately, sometimes it goes this way, and is nobody's fault.

If you need a hand with Goldie, you know where I am. Our usual currency of beer and curry will suffice ;)

As humilliating as the time my (then brand new) MINI Cooper was seen on the back of a recovery truck after being driven into a kerb on Abington Road in town.....!!

I did actually think you were joking first tunnie, but clearly not  ;D
TB - What's worse, a broken car, or being towed by a smug 144 bhp driver?  :D
Tunnie, did you charge the going rate for call out recovery services?  ::)

Since they only have one car, assuming at some point it will be tunnies taxi service to Nottingham  ::)

I'm probably going to need to tax Y189 HKE, so you're more than welcome to borrow that for however long if you need a car to run about in. Good for me too as that'll free up space so I can bring OY02 VTL back from where it's stored  :y
Title: Re: Revenge
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 02 April 2010, 23:03:01
If VTL is the car I think it is, She and me have some unfinished business?  :y

 ;D it is indeed the blue 3.2. I still owe you for your work on it already. About the 6th, being cryptic...their estimate is £400 lower than what price I put on it. Depends on if you're going to keep your 406 though I guess?

TB - What's worse, a broken car, or being towed by a smug 144 bhp driver?  :D
Tunnie, did you charge the going rate for call out recovery services?  ::)

Got a free meal and a drink out of it, lucky for me he broke down at the pub  :D


everyone needs a shoulder to cry on at times like these. and a good mate is always there when it happens  :y :ya

A proper good mate does it all on the quiet rather than take oictures to post and then take the wee wee.

Notice tunnie 'arranged' that picture, just to show the 'good' side on his car - ie, the side he hasn't scrapped down a fence :P


Oh, sorry, a mate wouldn't have mentioned that ;D ;D ;D
