He's not even using the "memorabilia" get out hence he's getting the shit ripped out of him

Claims you can reshell this id onto any other 3dr shell,and legally weld the floor number over the top of the original

Says he's done plenty in the past

Trouble is a lot of his former customers are now asking lots of awkward questions about Rs's they've bought in the past...

This is the whole issue I have with the 'reshell' bollocks. It's making one car into another.

Bah. Didn't get the job in Birmingham.

 

I'm somewhat disappointed, but I've realised I rather like Scotland, so moving that far away would probably have been a bit of a pisser.

Aye, the Aberdeen weather has been really selling it lately!

Birmingham or Scotland? Let me think about that for oh about an Attosecond. I think you would miss Scotland massively.

I will defend Birmingham, there are beautiful places and shit holes, just like Scotland.

I'd just push it out of the way into the towbar of the car behind it.

Ideally hook its bumper over that towbar.

I couldn't imagine doing anything as stupid as moving to Brum, even for a dream job.

I was in Halesowen, just down the road, for 4mths on a site project......it was bloody depressing!

There are some great places to see, a load of industrial architecture etc.... and nights out were great apart from one thing - couldn't get past the girls/ladies accents. Looked lovely, ticked the boxes and approachable, then they used their poshest drawl..... I just couldn't help it. Not to offend anyone, I'm from Sunderland for gods sake, the cackle there has o be heard to be believed!

Isn't obstructing you from the highway an offence? Probably could phone the police I guess, especially with no MOT?

I hope you didn't call anyone from Halesowen a Brummy? that's enough to get you killed, Halesowen is Black Country.

I think beautiful and Birmingham is a stretch, there are better and worse bits but as whole it’s a dump. It sadly doesn’t seem to have seen the level of regeneration that other cities have benefitted from. The bits like Brindley place are just full of annoying new age yuppies. Scotland has its bad bits but it has some of the most amazing places in the world as well. Birmingham is 90% shit, whereas Scotland is at least 95% nice, so no brainer where I would go given a choice.

Donald Trump, a coke dealer and two prostitutes may disagree (allegedly).

With a history like that has he thought of running for Mayor of New York or working for Doncaster Council?

The city might be shit, just like most city's, but around it, there are places that you would not believe.

^^ Dudley I didn't want to believe. For me it's crap and I wouldn't recommend it to any one.

Bumper damage to your van aside, the obvious answer is to just shove the fucker forward, then reverse off and leave them to it. Someone kept doing it to me when I worked at a tyre fitters, so I just backed into their car and shoved it in the middle of a road. It never happened again.

Probably related to the person who parked next to me today. I picked a nice wider space because I had kids in the car. There was one space next to mine, quite narrow and a solid wall next to that. The rest of the floor of the multistorey was about 25% used. Of course, I came back to the car and found an SUV parked over the line into the space I was in.

 

Luckily I was in my focus, so not worried about parking dents. But the SUV had two child seats in the back.... Why not just park in a space that isn't the tightest in the car park? I just don't get people's thought patterns.

I’m parked in a permit bay at the side of quite a busy road and I’m wondering if he is fed up with me parking in “his” space - it’s been there for a fortnight now and only moved once :D
