    2015 Suzuki Mehran comes with leaf springs. :P

    Sure leaf springs are fine we had them on an Ifor Williams twin axle trailer and they were grand :pac:

    Does it even have brake gallopers drums no doubt.

    Guess who forgot to pay his M50 toll again. This guy! Don't think I've ever managed to do it by the next day :pac:

    You know you can pay it in advance now?

    The 50c a month is worth the tag just to be able to pop into the express lane and back out and up to 160 120 again before the rest have even come to a stop at the change booth.

    Ah yes the express lane :) The work of god.

    Anyone know if the eFlow tag works if you keep the tag in the glovebox?

    They do not. I even tried keeping it in the sunglasses holder, no dice.

    Ah I was hoping I wouldn't need to squeeze it in beside the dashcam along with the NCT, tax, insrance discs and N-plates.

    If it does not then the cameras pick up your reg, contact eflow to check if you have an account and charge your account, I have been doing this for 3 years.

    It's tiny tbf. Mine is stuck behind the mirror and is small enough that I can't see it sitting there. Just make sure you don't block the auto-dimming light sensor and spend weeks cursing being blinded like I did first time.

    Auto-dimming light sensor? I don't even have ABS :rolleyes:

    Auto Dimming Mirrors, Auto Climate and Cruise Control, so damn good, makes long distance driving a doddle.

    Anyone know how do you go about using an 8 seater Transporter as a family car?

    Do you have to tax it privately and use commercial insurance?

    Anyone else get pulled in by a Custom officer in an Opel Insignia hatchback that looks like a Garda car?

    I was driving a UK reg car and They must have been following me for a while until I parked up at a Spar.

    Luckily I had all my documents in order including my shipping ticket from 2 weeks ago and my motor trader docs.

    I wonder how they decide to stop UK reg cars? It wouldn't really that welcoming for a UK holiday maker that brought their car over for the holiday.

    Also, anyone know what would happen if thi gs weren't in order?
