That is a very tidy looking old thing. Well bought…definitely well worth it!

I thought about giving you a shout but it was a bit of a flying visit on public transport as I couldn’t be bothered with a 17hr drive! Train to Aberdeen via Glasgow, bus to Turriff, ten minute job then reverse. Currently speeding through the countryside towards Glasgow again on Scotrails finest!

Currently on the upstairs of a bus (for the first time in 40 years) up in @Saabnut’s neck of the woods and spotted this glorious dealership!

Astra H 1.7 CDTi Estate. No longer for sale.
NorthernMonkey replied to Bmwdumptruck's topic in AutoShite
The rep called round once to try and sell me some but they wanted a minimum order of god knows how much of so many different treatments etc and to look at my business set up. It worked out about a quid a bottle cheaper than I can buy it as I need it from the accessory shop a mile down the road. They still email and ring me now… 😂 -

Regarding fuel treatment, the Forte stuff is among the best on the market. Originally supposed to be ‘trade’ only which was probably just marketing spin but plenty of factors sell it and it works. -

Certainly can 👍 -
Having lived around half a mile from Corley services for ten years before coming back up north, I can assure you that footbridge is one of the better things about the place

Got to be on to a plane next 🤞🤞 -
In that case, it looks ideal 👍😂

Don’t underestimate the cost of repair parts needed…if you’ve got a donor vehicle in the right colour, you’re laughing but if you need to source everything, it will mount up. I’ve just done an i40 for a friend of mine with seemingly minor damage but it’s needed a new bumper, wing, various brackets, a very expensive LED headlight etc etc and it’s soon hit 4 figures. He got paid out nearly 3k after retaining salvage so he’s well on the right side but that £500 2011 Kia can easily become a £2000 one to do it properly, even with your own labour where possible.

Please tell me Ceri isn’t fetching the bloody thing here?!? I have an unfortunate habit of agreeing to things whilst in the pub but I can’t remember getting that pissed for a while now 😳😳😳

It always has been, @LightBulbFun but what you must also understand is it’s become as successful as it is because of the way people have always been able to get along, take the piss, help each other out and generally form a community without getting upset that someone has said something they disagree with. You are more than welcome to partake but you must be prepared to fit in with the general ethos of the place. There are plenty of members who have gone out of their way to help you and offer advice but you need to stop getting so upset when the popular opinion doesn’t go your way 🙂

By the way, @ruffgeezer, not trying to teach egg sucking to granny but I’ve had two of these with roof ‘issues’ and both have been the microswitch activated by the luggage protector in the boot. Nice simple fix if it is…
