I have never, ever, managed to finish a tin of WD40, they always vanish, almost as soon as I buy them.

 

Never had that problem, but I have similar issues with losing Stanley knives and tape measures. I always end up buying another one, only to find all the other ones I'd previously mislaid, precisely when I have no need of them. Ho hum.

A carpenter told me that the most expensive tool was his tape measure...

There is never enough propellant in WD40 tins...always seems to be a 1/3rd full when it runs out of puff.

You need to stop getting drunk on lubricant and hiding them under your bed

I never really thought about it but neither have I and don't believe anybody has. It's a conspiracy.

Same with de-icer.    I never actually run the cans out but WTF are they come November?

Tucked in the pocket behind the seat the same as last year when I didn't use it either.

Just spotted the J***OHG Jag here in Flixton that was for salenon here some time back. Who owns it now?

[Ghosty]

That's Junkman and Conrad's. Registered to the former but the latter is the custodian I believe.

[Lord Sterling]

Ah yes of course. I remember Conrad offering it up now.

[Ghosty]

Yep - it's a mid-term keeper now. I ferried a wing up north from Shitefest for it.

I started the Panda up today and it was really disturbingly clackity.  I really don't know why as all I did was push it outside.

 

 

Anyway I was trying to jump start it and left my jump leads sitting next to the car and this big fuck off sea gull came down and tried to fly off with my jump leads. Thieving seagull twat.

[Stanky]

Thieving seagull twat.

 

Comin' over 'ere, stealin' our jump leads!

[anonymous user]

Seagulls, always starting something

[cort16]

I chased it and it came back for another go too. I managed to scare it off with the well know seagull scaring chant of "hoy you fuck off".

[stuboy]

Whilst off bored.. got round to removing the damaged speaker grill... its only took 2 years..

[Lord Sterling]

Adding accessories to a car is a minefield as is well known to the eBay tat thread. I have put on one new old stock mudflap to the Mondy and I think I like it. Suits it's overall Gifferness. I think I'll just do the fronts though.

Yeah Egg nice one, but more importantly, do you gave proper Mondeo floor mats in it?

Once you've decided what derogatory horrible offer you'll take for that Panda I'll come and get it

[cort16]

I'm hoping a seagull will fly off with it.

 

There's is something quite endearing about them (Panda's not seagulls) but lets face it they're totally shite.

[The Moog]

I do reckon that you need to dress it as a jump lead and get the gulls to gang up and have it off.

 

Just for the insurance lols

[cort16]

Reading on the interwebs I recon it's a dodgy tappet. I might change the oil put some tappet be gone gunk in it.

[DodgyBastard]

I got the Alto back with 12 months mot and have been offered a swap for this.

 

Swap for Alto? Hmm... by srblythe, on Flickr

 

It's a 1.6 auto.

 

And here's the Alto!

Which one would you keep?

[eddyramrod]

Take the Cav and flog it on, to me!

[bub2006]

I've been admiring that cav on eBay. Large,auto and towbar. Perfect

[Six-cylinder]

Cav if it was me.

[Heidel_Kakao]

Cav for sure. Wagons are for winners!

[strangeangel]

After thinking about it for a whole 0.000000000000000000000000000001 seconds, the Alto.

[hairnet]

cav kakao needs to be on that

[dollywobbler]

Wow! I love Cavalier estates!

 

But still Alto.

[Timewaster]

Cavalier every time.
