Kopparberg Strawberry and Lime

As I was pulling away from the accident I got into a very friendly conversation at the lights with a sound bloke in a fairly new merc s class and made sure he had the 5L which he did !

Ugh, cracked my coolant bleed screw (just the cross head), thankfully it is on as tight as it needs to be. It's only a month and a bit old, very strange. Have ordered 4 replacements from ebay just in case I need to adjust it again.

They used to change out a whole engine in the 2cv race in mondello in less time than that:P

The whole endurance race doesn't do it for me as the main players are rarely racing each other on track.

Horses for courses. It's still better than watching football.

If the 2cv did over 300km/h I'd be more impressed :pac:

You guys are my heros :D:D

Now that I think of it, I don't see much football on the tv, just a load of ponces attempting to dance infront of a crowd of people, then take out handbags when they get tipped by a wasp.... You'd want to be utterly thick/tasteless to watch that sort of sh*te :pac:

If being in a ruck/scrum and grabbing other guys by the arse/balls is manly... then, sure...

And if falling on the ground "in agony" at even the thought of the ball hitting their SHIN PADS is manly... then, sure.....

CHP, did I see you coming onto the roundabout at the M50 there about a half hour ago? Wine carina with yellow rear plates.

Nope, carina is currently off the road!
Good to see someone else has (no) taste too!

Just back from a trip to the UK, and had the pleasure of being driven about in a brand new Volvo V40 hire car for the weekend. It had just over 100 miles on the clock when we got in. Was a dark blue with very light cream leather interior. Had almost every extra going, auto climate control, sat nav, radar cruise, lane drift avoidance, speed limit sign reading, heated seats the works. Damn comfy and was surprisingly nippy only being the D3 to. Would have seriously considered on for herselfs next car, bar one thing. It's fricking tiny inside. For a car that should be competing with a Focus and Golf, it was unacceptably cramped. Had the passenger seat all the way to the floor and as far back as I could go without squashing the person behind me, and was still hitting me head off the roof. And I'm not even 6 ft tall. Was a clamber to get in and out of the back as an adult as well.

That's bad news, I was sort of casting my eye on these as a possible next car:(
