...Big flaps

...

I just Googled "spat flaps". The results were all to do with aftermarket mud flaps.

What tyres lasted 50 k ?

Haven't you ever watched Top Gear? All roads in Murica are straight, so far less tyre wear. You've probably not owned an Alfa either 🙄

Parquet flooring in a van. Amazing.

Spontaneous combustion.

Yes, it's our very own Barbara Cartland.  I think the woman's fairly well known too.

Right, parishioners of the Autoshite Church. I've tried lecturing you into buying some shit for us all to laugh at, but now I'm going to preach from the lectern of first hand experience.

This must, MUST  be bought.  I can see of no sensible reason as to why this wouldn't be purchased and brought into the family.  

From what I can see, it's a Taxi Spec Diesel Granada.  My understanding is that it's a bit of a holy grail, and my wish is to see it on here.

Please.  Someone do an Autoshite.  I beg.

I saw this on Facebook earlier and came here to post it; this seems cheap.  Is this cheap?  It's an old, rare, Ford.  I'm as far from being a Ford person as it's possible to be, but I'm tempted.

Some Range Rovers have DRLs that make them look (to me) as if they're wearing pince nez...

Apparently when you click the button on the remote on an L405 it says 'I can only show you the door'.

That’s the problem, it’s obviously not serious enough for them to take the time out of their day to sort the tyres out. Perhaps if the penalty was a months wages for each faulty tyre they’d lose their sense of humour. 

It's already £2,500 per tyre, how much do you earn a month??? 🤣

Maybe the police should start incentivising grassing on these people, like they did with drink drivers.

Don't go spoiling things with facts. 

You can tell it's Prince's street because he's left one of his tiny microphones behind.

I've got a sticker on my T2 that says, 'I don't care if your dad used to have one', I am obviously a complete twat.

So is their dad, so that sort of cancels it out.

I see this Mongdeo around occasionally. It's lovely*

 

That just keeps on giving.

Are those additional indicators cable tied into the grill, or marker lights? Where did he find those anachronistic marker lights under the front bumper? Why are there blue lights on the rear bumper? Why are those England stickers always applied symmetrically? 'Paul' 🤣

This one ticks a few boxes… 

 

I miss the Rover ads that were plastered with “Honda/BMW engine M8”  regardless of what was actually powering it! 

'Was going to use it as a retro ride but ain't got time to use as too busy being an adult lol' 

Seller hasn't done a single days adulting in his life, too busy being a wanker.

In the 80s I knew a guy who was a fishmonger , he said the smell was in his pores , couldn't get rid of it , when he went out to pubs & nightclubs he said he could see people sniffing the air 

That's Lynx for you. 

I once viewed a Saab 9-3 being sold by a home trader. His wife called during the test drive 'I don't think he's really interested, seems like a timewaster'. 

Just before taking the call he'd been telling me how there's no point servicing a car that old (probably about 15 years old then), just run it into the ground, and I think I must have pulled a face.

Suffice to say, etc etc

Better than smelling like a tramp or fishmonger.

It really isn't. 

Cars with names. 

It's a thing, not a person, and it already has a name. Referring to your car as Archibald doesn't suddenly imbue it with a personality; it was dull as fuck before you named it, and it still is. If it is interesting, people who will realise it's interesting will recognise that from the model designation, 'Gertie' means nothing to them. 

I realise I'm not the first person to complain about this, but people are still doing this. Car namers, please stop being such fucking dicks.

News just in Phil Mitchell tops Keven Webster by buying a Fiat 500C in a Tracksuit

That salesman has just had a really good idea. 

When doing his customary end-swoosh DW says 'I'm always going to finish on the rear wipers from now on'. 

I didn't realise he liked windscreen wipers that much, and that's an image I really would like to forget.

Treat a cat like a WBOD...but as soon as they are very ill, it's off to the vets for a one-way journey, then get another one.  

We Buy Any Cat or Cat Take Back weren't interested then?

Project Binky's clutch pedal linkage. Amazing. 

I have intentionally not posted a picture, so as to not spoil it for those that haven't seen it. Suffice to say, it's worth watching the entire 45 minute video just to see the few seconds of fabricated multi-levery goodness.
