Yep, takes the strain on the hand brake, rather than the the park mechanism. And TB hasn't done his little speech on not forgetting to use said hand brake.  :y      ;D

He'll be busy trying on hats for tomorrows festivities. ;D ;D

I can just imagine him with his hat & waving his Union flag!  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Those who know me well will know I'm far from a Royalist ::), but we have a street party tomorrow, so the buntin is up around the house ;D.  Stella in fridge.  A day of talking utter bollax ;D

I found out today, amongst the Close's residents, I'm known as the Omega Man   :-?

Amongst other things so i believe  ;D ;D

.... else the tinker stops working, and Mr MOTer will have a field day :y

We should get Myth buster to prove or dispel this 'rule'.  ::) ::)
I know I can only talk for 3 cars (2 Senators & this Omega) but in 200 000 miles my handbrake has been used once a year by Mr MOT Man and maybe a few tyre fitters, and I've never had any problems with my handbrake. I've never even seen a set of handbrake shoes.  :y :y :y
