    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    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.
