  1. I did a similar job, I paid the guy who was laying a patio next door £20 to run the saw down the walls which took him about 2 minutes!

    I then used a drill to stitch drill around all the half bricks to 'sawtooth' the wall. A cold chisel and wire brush to clean up the 'good end' of each half brick before mortaring them back in.

    The mortar wasn't a perfect match with the existing, but otherwise it looked pretty good and I had it done in a day.

    Id definitely rather spend the money getting a door to fit the hole rather than adjusting the hole!

    Fitting the door was a doddle, about 8 frame fixings to drill in, a few plastic shims and then a mastic seal.

    Have a go!

    There's now wrong with the new Navara but I always liked these X-Classes because the premise of them trying to roll out a re-badged Nissan as a premium pickup truck is so ridiculous.

     

     

    100% with you on this. And I love that it's been such a failure they've pulled the plug already. Delicious. But also lovely to know how many Mercedes A-class and Vito owners are driving around with the Renault engined Mercs. Oh the shame.

  3. Hello people on the 'beige forum'.

    I've been a browser of this forum for probably 10 years on and off. I'm currently in a beige V70 which I'm happy to post about if people are interested, but I've previously dabbled in loads of proper chod, mostly Skoda Favorits in the mid noughties. I'd actually love another one now but boy have they all disappeared!

    I'm a fan of Modern Heroes and Hubnut, can anyone recommend similarly 'choddy' channels?

    Hi everyone!
