I hope the police officer that hit them wasn't injured.

I saw a 2002 Saab 9-3 for sale here for $800...and was looking up mechanical fixes on them because starter turns, no start, no compression...an here's 2 actual questions owners asked:

1. "How far will my Saab go with a full tank?" _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

2.  "Engine stops...light comes on that has A PICTURE OF A SHOE. What does that mean?" _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

 

did cars like that wind up in the UK?....................please fill in good answers

1. To the moon and back, providing it's on a trailer.

2. Road ahead closed. Continue on foot.

Waiting at a red light this morning on the pushbike on the way in to work, and another cyclist on a fancy road bike went steaming past me straight through the light.  Normally this would have been a grump, but the cyclist in question was young, female and wearing an extremely tight pair of black leather leggings.  The light went green shortly thereafter, and I caught her up - normally I would have overtaken but for some reason this morning I decided that she was actually going quick enough and stayed behind for the rest of the way in.

was she eastern european , in the summer my car boot sale mornings have been improved dramatically by young eastern european women in lycra running clothes, though I have noticed once they've been here a while the McDonalds effect kicks in and they go from walnut cracker cheeks to slightly more padding.

I thought the last bit of that was quite informative to watch. Tells you a lot about the physics and trajectory of the human body being tossed into the air.

That marks 1000 miles with my Micra. So far, so good!

 Think the owner of the holiday property has a sense of humour.

I've got no problem with that. We were successfully doing something similar here recently:

 

 

 

until some bright spark decided that the officers using this tactic could be prosecuted, that is ?  So we're back to square one, and the bike thieving scum are free to do as they please again.

Are you serious , I really couldn't care less if scum like that even in this country end up in a wheelchair made out of pallets and old pram wheels 

Something needs to change in this country 

But Labour has raised concerns about the approach, which shadow home secretary Diane Abbott said was "potentially very dangerous".

potentialy very dangerous for theiving scumbags , who gives a shit , what about the innocent pedestrians when they take to the pavement trying to escape

Nicking someone's bike (especially in London) is effectively regarded as a victimless crime; all you'll get from the police is given a crime number and told to crack on with your insurance claim. If this human refuse thought there was a danger of getting turned into pizza by a 2 ton cop car, instead of the current "pursuit too dangerous because scum not wearing helmet" the bike theft statistics would tumble within weeks.

Liked for warehouse picker and packer giving precisely zero f*cks, like the use of a single piece of waxed paper.

This is the second one after Asda lost / destroyed the first..

Asda? Really? A bit like the smartwatch I received from Amazon this week in one of their sturdy, cardboard carriers with a well stuck down flap. Pity the ends were both wide open though, I don't know how it didn't just slide out.

Sounds about right - then again, I’d be more interested in Santa’s ‘Naughty’ list than his nice one

The bit of river where I walk my dogs was plagued with neds on stolen  bikes screaming about the place. They were responsible for at least one dogs death, Also one of them decided to sit in front of my immaculate A209 and wheelspin stones over the whole thing causing considerable damage to the paint. In fairness to our local plod, they did what they could. I remember having a conversation with a crowd of them one evening a couple  of summers ago, right after I witnessed one of the scrotes on bikes trying to run an  officer down. They were as frustrated as I was. They simply weren't allowed to follow said scrotes off road as, if they did AND one of the scrotes hurt himself, then the police would be culpable. This country is fecked up in so many ways these days.

I know its trite autoshite but been rewatching Ronin this week, what a great load of cars ?

[wuvvum]

I know no politics etc. etc. but Jonathan Pie's description of Boris Johnson in his latest video as "looking like a startled pig in a hay bale" had me guffawing like a twat.

Ha! I bought these 2nd hand on ebay about 10yrs ago. Plus the fact I'm wearing them makes them immeasurably unfashionable.

Anyway even if the rips were fashionable back in 'nam they have since multiplied into non fashion, just poor person rips on the knee
