2MB got a reaction from Craig the Princess in 2 Hondas don’t make it right
It’s been a while but the familiar ache/burn got too much and I gave in again. For context I was bidding on a certain vehicle on eBay in early August, missed out on winning it by a fiver or something and called it a draw. As we all know this feeling of nonchalance manifests itself in a desire to do better next time. I put it down to be being the wrong time for such things, seeing as though child number 3 was due to be born in about 60 days’ time. With that in mind, and the feeling of freedom of the first day free from work and/or childcare since March I put my pushbike on the train, rode it a few stops and got out at Leeds urban bike park, where I was having a lovely time until I decided to have one more go at a set of jumps. The ground came out of nowhere and twatted me goodstyle in various places, mainly my left (dominant) arm which broke either side of the elbow.
None of this matters a great deal but today finds me able to drive again and having won a subsequent eBay auction for a similar vehicle. The first part of the journey is on foot, in to the depths of Ravensthorpe no less

2MB got a reaction from Yoss in Once seen, can't be unseen
What is going on is that they have designed a car so fucking ugly that literally everybody knows what it looks like. See also Tesla cybertruck accidental window breakage and subsequent share price increase.
No publicity is bad publicity but it’s certainly no E21 or E30

2MB got a reaction from Coprolalia in Volvo 940... do I or don't I?
Had a 240 with the same engine and it had enough power to do third gear drifts at 70 mph. It’s all about commitment, and even 2.3 turbos aren’t anything close to being fast by today’s standards. They are, however, reliable, comfortable and spacious as well as being enjoyable to drive sedately. Offering to put it through a test does seem to make sense.
Thoroughly enjoyed my old 940 but some of that may have been down to it being a turbo estate

This made me chuckle. Unsure of the purpose of it apart from reminding you that you have a Sony head unit

I’ve always harboured a strange desire to invest in a really short, expensive private reg and put it on a shit scooter. No idea why
