Isaac Hunt Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Pure fecklessness on my part I'm afraidI've had a headlamp bulb fail during the test, checked all lights the night before, side lamp, dipped, main, all good, took in for test and a dipped popped. It isn't worth trying to explain cos they think you can't be arsed to check em. Well done on the fixing. Those Rhonda Autoboxes have a reputation on being a bit sharp on the changes.

dollywobbler Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Good going I reckon. The Honda comes in at 35p per mile over 13,000 miles by my reckoning, so I'm averaging better mpg, but have had to get more stuff sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanky Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 What does it need tyre-wise? Danthecapriman gave me a pair of 185/70R14s a while back which I discovered on Tuesday don't fit the Yaris at all. PM me if any use. They are yours for free if needed.

Mr_Bo11ox Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Yo! This is nowt to do with my fleet, but is (I thought) an interesting Rover nugget. Some lad popped up on an FB group this week with a 45 V6 hatchback! Officially, Rover only ever offered the V6 in the saloon body. I don't know if it's a conversion but the DVLA records seem to be correct with the model down as a V6 24v club. I wonder how it came about? V6 hatchback is my ideal Rover 45!!

mk2_craig Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Seems legit! I get this impression there was a load of weird stuff escaping the production line in the last few years, so tune in next week for a late model 25 accidentally fitted with the powerplant from an Xpower SV.

RobT Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Collected this from Reg Varney-Bo11ox this evening. I expressed an interest a few weeks back via PM (when dealing with roffle payments for the Xantia) and here we are. Currently sitting at Toddington services because my bladder finally couldn't wait any longer, and thankfully no snow chaos so far apart from the odd flurry. Cheers Bo11, despite the slightly leggy miles it's a cracker! Working cruise is a welcome bonus whilst wafting down the motorway.
