Not sure what's worse, the fella trying to reassure him or the very thought of someone walking into ECP asking for 4 sets of front brake pads, one set for each wheel. 🤣

It was the first time in nearly 16 years on Autoshite that I've used the "block" function.

I missed most of it as I had him on ignore after the first week he arrived

I'm sure he'll get it off his windscreen quite easily anyway.

Wouldn't it be a shame if it accumulated all around the fresh air intakes 😬

Pics or it never happened 

I'm at the mrs's for the weekend. But I can offer you cunt next door's reaction. As he's got about 20 dog eggs where he parks the truck he's hopefully thinking that's a good idea and going for a shovel.

Just completed 490 miles in my 2006 L200 from near Thame and around Derbyshire for the week and back….. why does that make me grin, the furthest it has been in the 3 years I’ve had it in one sitting is 15 miles and it’s never been on a motorway!
 

Averaged 31 MPG my man maths calculated…

According to Wikipedia that could be a trailer number plate.

It's a strange format for a Belgian number plate.

Even the ancient Belgian plates I've never seen in that format. Usually letters then numbers..... 

Plates are driver related - issued to the person with document proof for the car and are handed back (or transferred to new vehicle) when the vehicle is sold on or scrapped.... 

I've asked an ancient (I'm only oldish) Belgian friend - if he comes up with anything I'll let you know.

The mrs was flicking through old pics on her phone and came across this one of my youngest at the time fair young still redoing the brake lines on one of the old smilies. Back in the days before secondary school, mobile phones and her teen years kicking in she would get right stuck in.  Happy days.

Why do they do that

85 was crossed out and it was 51 

But the first email I got was a receipt with 85 on it

They were nearly getting rung up lol

Probably the company will put it down to a special offer and thus reduce tax by claiming the difference as a loss. Or some th8ng.

Despite previous owning loud vehicles in the past, I'm now of the opinion that noise, is just a result of poor engineering.

Dad had an emergency operation.  They've found the mother of all tumours in his vocal cords, gave him a traciotomy on Friday.  They took a biopsy.  And will decide next week what treatment he's getting

Yesterday he was sitting up.  They are feeding him through a tube.

Today they let him get a bit of fresh air.

Sounds shit?  Why have I put it in the grin thread? 

Well he didn't die in the operating theatre. 

Doctor says : You aren't ill. You do have cancer and that might make you ill. But right now you are okay.
