    I think it was something like 121 when I bought it. So that would be 3500 per year. Which is fairly sick considering the tax cost per mile! :eek:

    Unfortunately I think you must be seizure free for 3 years before you will be given the all clear.

    Car bought on 16th of March 2013 @ 133k miles

    As of now.. 179,800 miles

    180-133 = 47,000

    413 days of ownership

    47000/413 = 113 miles/day :eek:

    At our most extreme we had the Trans Am; my daily was the E38 735 and she was in a 2.5 Legacy. It was extravagant to say the least but it meant other bills were getting on top of us.

    We have two mortgages totalling €2k per month plus a babby en route so we're down to a 3L Jeep and a 2.2 Bimmer for now the peasants we are. :o

    All part of growing up. ;)

    I pretty much can never sell the thing until it dies. It'll always be worth more to me! And sure it's getting pretty perfect now. Have a couple of jobs to do in the near future. Fuel filter, brake fluid change and small bits and bobs and I'll be happy.

    Would love to win at the idiot tax but that's all it is an tax on your wishes! Don't be spending €30 on wishes spend €60 the chances are increased greatly!!! :-D

    I never spend more than €4

    I used to do the lotto but stopped after reading posts in after hours about the lotto. The most I won was between €150-200 roughly which was 4 numbers plus bonus, what annoyed me that day was I was one number away from wining the €25,000 as you need 5 numbers plus bonus for that.

    I remember looking and saying I have that number, and that, and that etc..

    And I was all excited and checked online to see how much I won and was annoyed it was only less than €200

    I put a tenner on Liverpool for the title about 2 months ago :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,505 ✭✭✭Interslice


    Put a tenner on a horse once. He ran away with it.

    It's not as long as that, once they the medication dialled in (which can take a while, everybody reacts differently to different ones), it then depends on the severity of the initial symptoms


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,080 ✭✭✭✭Big Nasty


    OSI - sorry to hear man.

    Try not to worry about it too much dude. Hopefully it's something simple and you'll get the all clear shortly.

    I'll say a novena for ya anyhow man. ;)

    Just seen a 07 van on donedeal with 400k km on it. The ad says "genuine mileage" :pac: as opposed to what it being clocked fond from 600k km. I don't think anyone was going to doubt the mileage. It's been ages since I was on donedeal I forgot how amusing done of the ads are.

    In the last few weeks I have been seeing a 00 Nissan Skyline saloon going around Coolock, its black and completely standard on a 120xxx plate. I've seen it about 3 times and every time there has been an elderly woman driving (probably in her 60s or something), its really bugging me not being able to get a photo, first two times it drove in the opposite direction to me and just this morning ti flew past as I was cycling...

    Its just weird.

    I have seen it a good bit, I first saw it coming out of the Garda station near cadburys factory, then a few times on the howth road.

    It passed me today in Clontarf as I was cycling, I thought for a second it might be you but then I realised it was that car again.

    Anyone have one of these. I'm tempted to get it for the golf. As I like being able to listen to music of my iPod. I have a cheaper version but it's on its last legs and the sound quality is home sh!t.
