dean36014 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I had an unexpected refund and now have £20 sat in my paypal account. So here's your challenge. Find me something I can have delivered to my door for that amount or less. Has to be car related, tools, or books. Can be useful or useless.

purplebargeken Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I got the Wuvvum pressure washer too! To be fair it is more of a pressure rinse the soap off your car thing than a pressure 'washer'. It is handy though. Steam Punk glasses eh? Hmm.

dean36014 Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 So do the borescope things just plug in the micro usb port and you use some sort of App? At the moment i'm leaning towards one of those and a completely pointless set of steampunk style sunglasses I'll look even more of an idiot in. Has anyone actually brought of of those borescopes and recommend one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
