Woner what I should do then.  Drove 16 miles on Friday and 8 miles 2 weeks ago, total of 24 miles in 6 weeks.

Dont think I have managed a 1000 miles since my MOT last year.

Does that mean I get a reward.   ::)

....ever heard of agoraphobia.......Mr skruntie.... ::) ::) ;) ;) ;)


Yes Optimal, I have allways hated spiders.  :y

I suffer from both agoraphobia and claustrophobia. Unfortunately, I spend most of my life in doorways. ;) ;D ;D

Just seen the gov. new climate change ad. apparently if we all drive just 5 miles less per week,it will help enormously.Us motorists are the worst culprits.
I feel so ashamed Im tempted to enquire about that W12 VW that Optimist was talking about earlier. ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D


The next logical step of course is to legislate for reduced energy use by taxation or surcharge -  after all, it's the way in modern day Britain - splendid :y :y

Mr Tunnie.......told me that it is £3000........just for a set of new dampers.........
I may need to reconsider Albitz..... :) :) :) ;) ;)
Just stick a couple of Passat dampers on each corner,plenty good enough I,m sure. :y ;D

....does look like an oversized Passat......I doubt that anyone would give a Phaeton a second look.
......for a £70,000 car ......is that good or bad?. :y :y :y
I think its a good thing....understated. :y I had one of them in front of me going up a slip road onto the A12 when I had the Senator,it took off up the road like excrement off a highly polished digging implement,made the Sennie look positively slow. :)
I wonder how much it would be to LPG it ? ::)

That could be a good idea Albitz.........A couple of grand .....perhaps.... :y :y

No my lad, you're for the firing squad. Shorter journeys mean higher emmissions! ;) ;D ;D

5 miles less per week eh??

Hmm, 5 miles less per week puts me on a 3 day week.....my earnings then drop to below minimum wage....then the state has to top my wages up.......potentially a good deal if you can get the figures right  ;)
