The new news 24 thread

[Guest Hooli]

I heard a barrage that sounded like the Somme earlier.

[Fumbler]

These people might also be doing some long range firing then...

[Tadhg Tiogar]

Bigger booms are now happening. I think someone's actually shelling their neighbour.

...or are they just aiming into the Channel?

[Fumbler]

They might be saying "Happy New Year" to the French, however I'm in the sea so I can only imagine.

I had a message from someone offering up a swap on the Cortina with a 944. I said send through some pictures. This is the best one.

 

 

I also got offered a dutton leggera kit car with a suped up injected pinto in it. Looks quite good but I don't think I'd fit in it.

@Rob - it's very 'you' that, sir! First raffle of 2019?!

Yeah, get it tested then February roffle most likely. Purely bought it as a NY boredom breaker!

[dollywobbler]

Lovely colour! These pre-facelift Lagunas have got seriously rare all of a sudden. Would like to lick.

[LightBulbFun]

Future FIL asked could i drive the melos from its storage to his home, so he can wash and service it..

 

 

Hah cool invacar rear lights 

 

 

Grandmother Fumbler's 2005 Rav4 clocked over 100 000 miles today. That also means it's now worth pennies and groats. And it needs a new clutch. Seriously needs one. It slips in 4th at 40MPH so not good at all. Now looking for a new vehicle that is small, four wheel drive, and has adequate ride height so she can continue pulling herself into the car and staying active.

 

Lada Niva? 

[Fumbler]

I wish. It might require a grenade autobox which I believe Lada classics never had. She won't buy new. Oldest car she's ever bought was two years old (the Rav4). Not to mention it has to last her with minimal additional problems. A clutch, flywheel and brake shoes are fine but at her age and out bust status any metalwork is off the order. I might just pitch in with the idea though!

[Squire_Dawson]

Happy New Day!

[Fumbler]

Indeed. The shelling has resumed.

[iainrcz]

Indeed. The shelling has resumed.

Indeed, how tiresome.

House alarm count clock will be set to zero for all the loud booms.

[beko1987]

If Amy wasn't at work I'd have had the battery off and on the Zafira to make the time and most of the date correct!

[wuvvum]

Happy Tuesday everybody.

[M'coli]

Happy New

Princess seemed to have an almost imperceptible list to port when I washed it in the daytime, what could it be?  Place bets now!

 

1) It's just not settled after being jacked up on one side for welding work

B: A displacer is about to fail because I've determined to get my spare pair overhauled

iii - It really doesn't want to go to Lincolnshire next weekend

FOUR; It's just the lighting being weird

cinco> a pivot shaft has seized in just the wrong place

f ~ Paranoia

[Ghosty]

Imhotep is invisible.

Handbrake / trailing-arm rear suspension interaction? Quite noticeable if handbrake much more effective on one side than the other.

bloody phone holder is spring loaded and shot it off. luckly i kept the doors on.

[purplebargeken]

Vulg, it'll be a dodgy earth. It's always a dodgy earth.

[vulgalour]

It looks level now.  It was probably all of the above.
