Even "ballers" who overtake a row of (quite obviously) queuing traffic still have to awkwardly wait ten minutes for a load of cows to slowly cross the road 😅

I commented on a dash camera video on Youtube:

"James S cuts the junction and has the audacity to beep at someone else"

Half wit - "Because he was pulled out on"

"Yes, I saw. I watched the video"

Half wit - "So that's why he beeped isn't it 🙄"

"I'm not sure you got my point"

Half wit  - "don't think you did either Old Timer"

 

I'll leave it there I think.

Blue Peter's really come up a notch since the old days.

Never mind a toilet-roll desk tidy, SCIROCCO DTM KIT YO.

But do ask an adult to help you.

This fella could do with some help, I think...

He's applied insulating foam using a cardboard mold , the foam is applied over the sticky tape which he appears to have left on the car so I assume the durability of the 'bodykit' is reliant on the stickiness of the masking tape at 70mph

Watched another , he's using the foam as a mold to apply fibreglass over them removing it when he's made the bodykit

I am currently 13 hours into a 22 hour shift!  I started at 0800 this morning in the office, joined the boat this afternoon and will be working 1800 to 0600 for the next couple of weeks or so. Why is this a grin? I usually work on a 6 month contract (zero hours) and yesterday I reminded my agency my contract had run out at the end of August. They responded today with a new contract, expiring at the end of December 2024 and threw in a nice 15% pay rise without me asking! The icing on the cake is my first roffle win on here!

She's been at that thing for months, probably been seeing it popup for a year now. And it still doesn't look any different!

Seriously cannot begin to comprehend what goes through someone's brain to make them cut out a structural beam when there's adequate space of just panel SIX INCHES forward!!

You're witnessing a cack handed numpty destroying a perfectly good Scirocco.🤣

I love it when Range Rovers and other very expensive 4x4s fail here because their owners have no idea what they are doing.

Which makes me ask, how do people that stupid get the money for such cars?

I know they haven’t forked out £80k to buy one but it’s still a lot of money to find every month. Not every one  ( not even all the black ones) is funded from small scale pharmaceutical enterprises.

How do dickheads like this stand as far as insurance, I would hope they are not covered. Surely they should pay for the rebuild themselves 🤔

Considering it's in the manual how and how not to go through water... I would say it's on them for incompetence and misuse.
