  1. Take a look at what's going on in China atm. It seems 5 of their biggest banks were "fooled" into a using a company who promised great returns on using their customers money. Director of the company has now disappeared,along with $6 Billion. https://youtu.be/N57doBGQTNY
  2. Picked my latest delivery from Portugal. £12 all in. Not bad for a un-named magazine model
  3. It seems 320 bhp and 550 lbs/ft make for a very spirited drive if you want it. However the owners I have spoken with with say the sheer amount of torks and a "sensible" autobox can regularly give 25mpg or more. Anything on petrol will be converted to lpg if it isn't already as even though the price has nearly doubled,it still costs around 70 ppl. Most 3.0 Legacies have bi-fuel from the factory as a lot are imported from Switzerland or Italy. And the Hyundai Tucson looks like another contender now.....
  4. Out car shopping today with the Mrs with quite the selection to hunt down and try for size. She suffers from fibromyalgia and so wants a car with a seat she can just slide into. The ML has proven to be to high,and the torsion bar suspension makes for a wallowy ride. Short list was a Nissan Murano.Seat was to hard and the boot floor was way to high Chevy Captiva.Build quality on par with a biscuit tin. Bmw X3 was in with a shout but then we stumbled upon a VW Touareg with the 5.0 V10 engine. She's now retired to the bedroom to research the feck out of it but it's sounding promising. The only car we want to try but haven’t found local is a Subaru Legacy Outback in 3.0 flavour as she does love her scoobies. So,we shall see what comes along .
  5. Legacy bumped over 336k this week and is starting to show its 25 years. There's a fair bit of rust starting to appear in the usual rear wheel arches and the base of the front wings.It is due it's Pregled (mot) this week and needs at least a couple of tyres to start with. I need to get underneath for a proper look but I'm thinking it's time to send off to live on the farm. With the cost of fuel going daft over here in Bg we've decided we only really need the 1 car so with the Mrs deciding she now hates her ml270,she wants to px it in and spend her yearly bonus on something else. Edit. No idea why the pic is sideways now,
  6. I know of a guy who went out for a spin on his keyless Ducati. Only when he stopped for fuel he couldn't open the cap,or restart the bike as the key he thought was in his pocket was hanging up at home..
  7. Didn't the cars have boots full of moonshine at the time?
  8. Amazing what you find at the bottom of the garden..
  9. You just Know when he feks them up trying to put them in the wrong way around,it'll all be your fault for selling him the wrong ones....
  10. Has the injector pump drivechain stretched and upset the timing? You can loosen the pump and rotate it a small amount to get back a little but not much
  11. Erm..ok?!? I hope it's been done just to make moving it easier but....

  13. There's no escape,the algorithm has you now
  14. My 1st Carlton 3000 Gsi 24v was that colour Starmist Black,looked great. Car got stolen,had the cd player removed then torched
  15. These are on offer in Bg for £7 each
  16. Me and the lads were on a run over the moors and stopped off for a drink there. They had a Tls in black there as an ex-demo bike so i blagged a test ride whilst they looked over my 4 week old Sv650s. Fell in love with the Tls,and sorted a deal where i got pretty much what I'd paid for it in px.
