I think with late registration Travelers they have been military vehicles from new and get miss assigned a reg number for the year they leave service.

I once saw a Minor on a prefix B plate at Waitrose in Berkhamsted. I’ve literally no idea how that happened.

A set of lovely new Rockblade tyres are now fitted to the Sierra.

I can't imagine that they are any better or worse than any other budget tyre.

In all seriousness though did they take a lot of balancing? The red dot should be aligned with the valve stem to minimise the amount of weight they need.

New one arrived. Great. Except the holes are drilled on the wrong place. FFS.

You ordered the wrong bit yeah? USELESS SHITPIECE

Don't be tempted to the clean your expansion tank with the pressure washer, especially with the nozzle used to pressure wash your driveway. 

RLUTZ = USELESS

Always remember - a picture paints a thousand words, so make sure your car ads are selling not just the vehicle but the lifestyle your audience aspires to.

Here’s an excellent example.

Bedford midi had an optional CGC, I’m not sure if it lasted right till the end of production or just on the earlier vans though 

“My” J plate Midi certainly didn’t have a column change. It did have an umbrella handle handbrake though.

does it? or does it just need some race numbers? 

It needs whatever the bloke who owns it decides it needs.

Radical and unpopular suggestion, leave it as it was when he actually drove it. Put a nice sheet laminated poster in the window with all the info for when its parked up,  job done.

 

I mean, why would you want it to look different to when he actually drove it? (or is that just me)

It’s going to do LeMons in the USA. It needs some sort of livery.

This has come up reasonably local to me. A touch over 3 grand.
