Pull up out front, get out, go stand by the window and wait. Doesn't make for exciting footage. Plus, they're on vacation for the next few weeks.

Can't comment on the fuse as I cut some mega overkill flex offa shit extension lead so it has whatever it has! Have thought of putting a connector in the cable though, it's too much to stick on my cheap tripod. Would be neater to wrap it up somewhere else... Infact that's given me an idea... With all that kit are you going to start venturing into low budget porn, as well as the vacuum cleaner porn? cobblers and beko1987 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saabnut Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 10 hours ago, beko1987 said: Followed the link when it first came up and thought they looked like value, as the lights were cheaper than new bulbs for my existing lights outside my shed, both of which have blown. Thought I would order 2 for there, then added a third to replace the one on the house. Then thought these would work well IN the shed where I needed more light. So I ordered 10 (I am doing this right, yes?) Arrived Saturday and quality looks very good, will start fitting them soon....

Aston Martins are deathtraps in the rain. I got overtaken by a DPD Sprinter on the road between Stowe and Cheltenham on streaming wet roads last December. I was bricking it on every bend, if I’d been in my poxy little E Class diesel rather than the clients brand new DB11 V12, I’d have been going 20 mph faster even on my Chinese Ditchfinders. myglaren and Asimo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Nothings faster than a courier van though! Was walking back from school the other morning and heard what I thought was an xud or modern 7 year old BMW that's had 3 oil changes its whole life but it was a 70 plate DHL sprinter with a dented rear door.

greengartside Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 After what seemed like forever trying to find another car to replace the daily Fiesta, I finally hit the jackpot yesterday morning. I initially went to view another car but he said ‘I’ve got another one here exactly the same, you can try both if you want’. So I popped over and ended up buying this.... Yes, another Fiesta! It’s a 2006 1.25 Zetec Climate with 112k on the clock. A full year’s ticket with a full service including timing belt change (done about an hour before I drove it), a brand new coolant bottle and new headlamps as the old ones were incredibly cloudy. There was a book pack plus a stack of receipts for previous work done - and I’m 95% convinced it’s had a new clutch recently as the bite point is very low. Drove perfectly with no noises or rattles. Picking it up Saturday. face, Quintus, BeEP and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
