    The feckin f350 is not ready yet. I've been messed about for almost a month now - waiting for the truck to pass the DOE.

    Suggestions? I think setting a deadline of the end of the week and then either the deal is completed or cancelled is the way to go.

    In summary ->
    :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    If I were you I'd have told him to pack it in long ago

    2007 Mazda 6.

    Is it hard to fit a leather steering wheel and center arm rest?

    How about an mps instead?
    I'd say you'd knock a nice bit of the asking holding a big envelope of cash under his nose.
    It's been up a good while as well.

    Yeah but it is driving me fecking mad waiting for it - plus he is making me look like an eegit to my friends etc, must seem like I am just BSing (like the guy here that claimed to own an evo and got found out :P)

    The alfa thing is a matter of waiting for the right one I think. Im also interested in a VAG SDI. I need a field!

    Got the cert to put in the window of my van from the doe last week. Talking about all or nothing with them. Old test they never recorded mileage full stop. New test it's written on the pass sheet you get on the day. On the form I got in the post today. And actually on the disc you put in the window. It has reg then under the exact km on the van when it done the test. Do nct put it on there discs ? I didn't think so but I'm not sure.

    Nope. Just the reg, date test and expiry date.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,193 ✭✭✭Cleveland Hot Pocket


    Since when does the doe have a window cert? :confused:

    Since 2 weeks ago. It's very different now lad.a lot more strict easily as strict as the nct you have to display disc in window almost everything failed when I got my van tested last week where as it used to be the other way round. It's run by rsa now google cvrt and you'll see everything that's what it's called now not doe.

    It's 114 euro now vs 87 euro. It's only literally in in the last 2 weeks or so. Also it's back dated now too so if your commerical is 6 months out of test and it passes it will only get 6 months of test. Where as it used to be a year regardless. Cvrt.ie has a good bit of info anyway.

    way too fast to have a baby in :rolleyes: for the love of God, probably about 115bhp, hardly the starship enterprise or anything.

    i'd say she wears pyjamas to the shops too.

    Lols :D

    Another odd one I just went into the kitchen and heard this weird noise. Asked my dad what it was and he had no idea (it had just started). Eventually I worked out that it was the horn in the CLK. Somehow by its self the horn just started going :confused: by the time I got the key to go out and disconnect it it had stopped and no longer works :confused::confused: I thought it was pretty funny anyway :o
