The Moog Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Idiot family. My sister flogging her clio. Started at 1500 quid despite everyone telling her it was too much. Finally months later reduced it to 750 and it sold. Although she has told the guy that she has sold it to that if he finds anything wrong he can have his money back! She told me there was some new law that said you couldn't sell a car with a fault it is on AA site. Cue me trying to find it. Did I Bugger. Just says if it is dangerous then saying sold as seen won't cover you.. fucking idiot.

I can't see me getting much change out of £500 so I might have to go though the insurance instead. Hey, if you can't claim in your insurance whats the point of having it? Is the NCD protected? TBH it makes sod all difference is that's the case in my experience (not that I crash that often).

I see your annoying body damage inflicted by a female and raise you Ouch! by Mr Lobster, on Flickr Which is STILL dragging on with no sign of anything actually happening as insurance companies argue amongst themselves until they decide that the stupid bitch that hit me is at fault.
HillmanImp Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Hey, I am pretty sure I am not even female and some of you might remember I did this the other week by crashing my car INTO MY OWN HOUSE!: trigger 1
Jim Bell Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Mrs Shitpeas reverse parked into a WRX at Mcdonalds. Scuffed his bumper and bent his 6" stainless exhaust tip. Bad parking, insurance avoidance tax quoted at £240. Commence the women driver not being able to park without crashing anecdotes.

Cavcraft Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I once hit a Vauxhall Nova in my Cavalier and wrote it off, so it's not just the birds who are shit at driving!
Station Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I kind've like Simon Mayo, even that muppets song he has at the start of his show on Friday (just as I'm setting off home!). I remember years ago, my dad being stranded at a family party and couldn't get back (we were all home by this point), so he drove home. This was in the days when it wasn't as frowned upon, but gives you an idea of why you shouldn't drink and drive. I looked out of the window as he reversed the car into the drive. I don't know what happened next as he didn't stop for a second and reversed straight through the closed garage door.I also remember at the same time, my uncle getting taken into the police station because he was over the limit. The police called his wife and asked her to take him home. That was it! This was in the very late 80's, probably 89, or 90.

Ghosty Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Just had to reinstall Windows after it shat itself. Nothing is more annoying than reinstalling everything.
trigger Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I *think* I have a £150 protected excess but i need to double check, I'll say I done it to protect her insurance, it's just frustrating as it's my nice car which I haven't had that long, mind you she did the same thing in the Alto a few months back too and that was tiny.
trigger Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Simon Mayo is alright but Ken Bruce is boss, I do like him. Mr Livered and Cavcraft 2

And rightly so. Every time. Apparently Steve Wright was the DJ that Morrissey wrote about for the Smiths song "Panic" - the one with the exhortation to "hang the blessed DJ"... Quote This song was written in reaction to an incident where the BBC DJ, Steve Wright, played the trite and spunky Wham! track, "I'm Your Man," following a news report about the Chernobyl disaster – a devastating nuclear accident that occurred on April 16, 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine. Guitarist, Johnny Marr, recalled to NME in 1987: "'Panic' came about at the time of Chernobyl. Morrissey and myself were listening to a radio report about it. The stories of this shocking disaster comes to an end and then immediately we're off into Wham's 'I'm Your Man.' I remember actually saying, 'What the f*ck has this got to do with people's lives?' And so, 'Hang the blessed DJ.' I think it was a great lyric, important and applicable to anyone who lives in England."(source) RedSparrow and jmsguzzi 2

RichardMoss Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Bastard Jeep electrical systems - and Jeep's inability to fix obvious/serious faults at the design stage or when they come to light in service. The ECU on XJ Cherokees is a known weak area - it doesn't take kindly to heat and so where do you think that Jeep put it? Yep - right next to the bloody radiator. They also encased the circuit board in rubber gel to make it waterproof (and make it even hotter!). All very well if you live in Detroit but (and this may come as some sort of startling revelation to the engineers at Jeep) many Jeeps get sold in the Middle East and the ECU is totally bloody useless when you live in the desert where water ingress is not a problem! It's even more annoying when you consider that the rest of the vehicle works quite well - lightweight (ish), powerful (ish), manual gearbox etc. What's really frustrating though, is that the vehicle was in production for nearly two decades and they never thought that it might be a good idea to relocate the damned thing to somewhere cooler (like the inside of the vehicle). Much better to keep producing the same shite design and let the customer fix the issues - perhaps the inspiration for the Rover K series head gasket? You may have guessed from the above rant that that I have just had ANOTHER offroading trip ruined today by this piece of shite.

I suppose it's one of those awful Renix units ? Are you sure it's the ECU rather than one of the myriad of sensors ?
Station Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I like that bloke from Fun Loving Criminals (Huey something or other?), he has a show late Friday night, he plays a really good selection of choonz.
Lord Sterling Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 What a fucking brilliant day I've had. Not as bad others but there have been some rather unnecessary things happen today. Woke up late and therefore got into work late. Later on in the day I was informed that my job was supposed to have ended at the end of last week, I will however get paid which is what I expect anyway. The agency didn't leave me a voice message last week as they thought they'd done. So I came home and decided to try and install Sis_Sterling's Printer/Scanner to my computer as Ma is always banging on about needing a bloody scanner/printer. Computer decides to say no, I get angry, kick it and the power-pack sparks and kills it dead. I guess it gives me a good excuse to buy a better computer now as I was trawling through ebay looking for one last night. I am now in bed as I have decided to give up on day.
