So what have you done to your car today?

[chrisgixer]

Aaaaeye.  Tools supplied, no oil in MY eye. Oh no. Not even twice

break off :@

I hope you wet yourself when you laughed so hard...

Notice I didn't mention it wasn't just in your eye. It was bloody everywhere. lesser spotted TB appeared from under the car in a right state.


....( as he's clearly not recovered from the lurgy, I did feal sorry for him, but only briefly )

I reckon TBE was 15k, SB 20k, although the latter has a special replenishing system

How long! 'He's not the messiah, he's a very naughty The Boy'

Now Mr TB, we are supposed to be setting an example.


(By "we", of course I mean the royal "you")

Mrs TB has put her foot down about jacks in the kitchen.  I'm not allowed a jack until I have a garage

Sucked my pants up my chuff when I put the bastard thing sideways at dual carriageway speeds.

Oooohhh, I'd expect a bit better, assuming you're running it in a bit.

That (130bhp) one I used for France in 2012, I think I managed about mid 40s from. Much of the bulk of the miles was tedious motorway, but fun was had on more than one occassion, and I was running very late to get to the tunnel on the way out . Bearing in mind the other member of the party was in an V6 ash tree Morgan, occasionally some effort was needed to teach him a lesson

[05omegav6]

Have been keeping it below 2k so far

Only done 468 miles and mostly urban/in traffic... about 15mpg up on the Omega without really trying...

The one I borrowed was usually reading 750-800 miles trip+range

As you saw, scissor jack works. Will fit in't boot.
