    They won't turn their lights on:

    - because morons

    - because bulbs are extremely expensive

    - because morons

    - because lights on cause extremely high fuel consumption

    - because morons.

    Same here. Every single day. West Limerick has its own breed of drivers. First thing I noticed when I moved here. Some people had mental breakdowns when they put the new roundabout in Newcastle West

    Road out to tipp is actually far worse. As bad as West limerick drivers are I rarely have to drop out of fifth behind one of their convoys. East Limerick South tipp crowd are on another level altogether!

    God help us - if people get breakdowns negotiating the roundabout there - id hate to think how they got on BEFORE the roundabout was put in.

    I assume that's the one by the Courtney lodge your talking about????

    Roundabout a massive improvement there imo

    Got some oil in halfords today while it was on sale mobil 1 ESP 5w30 which meets all the specs used quantum the last time but said Id try the mobil this time. Just need to get air, oil, fuel filters and then that's everything it needs for the service. Not due for another 3k Km anyway.

    I think it will be better than the quantum as that gets mixed enough reviews whereas as the mobil is generally highly regarded.

    I used that a few times when i had the passat and thought it was good oil.
    I think Mobil is right at the top though!

    Ah there is nothing wrong with quantum but the Mobil was more or less the same price as it was on sale and I recon it has the edge over the quantum.
