    I've lost my front badge due to vandals

    Any well maintained alfa will not go up in flames unlike the one focus I knew which did.

    Alfas are the work of a genious, fords are.........................................

    Watched video of russian drunk driver climbing out of car on fire... while on fire. Like a zombie crawling out of the flames. Kind of wish I hadn't.

    At least I know one thing.

    I'll never drive a Ssangyong Rexton.


    Apparently he survived and went to prison for six years.

    You haven't seen anything until you've seen "3 guys 1 hammer". The most disturbing thing I have ever seen in my life.

    Took the horrendous number plate surrounds off the car and stuck the plates to the car with the strongest sticky back Velcro I could find. Twice in the weeks since, some ****er has ripped the plate off the front of the car and left it either stuck to the window of my partners car, or at the front door. What the **** goes through peoples minds that something like that seems like a good idea.

    Must have been a neighbour who either saw you doing it or noticed the difference, a jealous neighbour at that. Thank god im a culchee :pac:

    Guessing other people were injured and his fault?

    Here is a less terrifying Russian crash video, guy gets up and "jogs" out of on-coming traffic after being thrown from his seat.. no seatbelt.

    find something about to expire and eat it all.

    its what we do in dominos , if something is about to go off, we just throw it all in to the oven and munch away,

    last time it was cookies and pancakes.................. we're such fat feckers so we are :D


    in other fantastic news, from when mr pisshat hit my side door... aviva agreed to fix me car for me :)

    it gets fixed in car craft tomorrow for 2 days, enterprise will also pick me up and bring me to the star shipenterprise center for either a VW Golf, Ford Focus or Opel Astra :)

    also while car craft we're doing my estimate, the guy said he's going to re-arrange my whole front bumber, grill and headlight units because Dennings didn't do a good job with it at all even after going back to him.

    I like car craft more than dennings already :) plus the guys seem to be bang on and dead sound where the reception lady in dennings was an oul wagon and john denning himself was more ignorant than anything else (which actually seems to be the way he is seeing in the trade from what i hear from other people too) and they gave me a ****e yaris when they gave me a replacement car (had to destroy that thing).

    but anyway good all round so far :):D

    He was drunk. And driving.

    And you can hear one of them screaming for a bit in the back before they.... stop. The other four in the car died.

    3 Guys one Hammer....

    Welp, glad I'm in work atm because I'm not looking at that.

    Is it just me or does it seem like the recording car tries to finish him off before he gets off the road? :pac:

    Passenger told him to accelerate, as there was probably a car behind unable to stop. It looks like he got rear ended very slightly from the back.

    Can someone say quickly if it's ok to turn on the car and rev it with nothing over the intake (butterfly valve). There's an intermittent noise after starting since I cleaned the valve last month and want to piece the whole amf and air filter system back piece by piece to try and spot it.

    I've done it on my laguna and its still going fine :)
