The grumpy thread

What's that red estate car in the CavCraft preparation area, Billy?

 

Sorry man, but I don't get Audis. I don't know why you'd pay extra on top for some VW running gear that's already over priced. MOTHA_WATANABE did this, she somehow ended up paying £18K for a piss basic A1 which is basically a Polo with a different shell.

 

Really don't understand why people do it.

Modern brake calipers. RUBBISH! Looks like the BX Safari is also going to need a caliper now. Tiny bleed nipples which rusts up and seizes. One pot caliper so has sliders which rust up and seize. Why are they such cheap crap?! Meanwhile, the other BX is pissing out coolant and generally feeling awful, though the steering is a lot better. I should have stuck to 2CVs.

Hey, Tayne I certainly do have an Audi and also (handily enough) I'm a wanker so perfectly suited to it. If everyone who'd cut me up was in a Vauxhall I'd still post the same message but with a different car.

Audi's are the natural progression for the Skoda Fabia VRs driver. I had a wanker spec running lights A6 for two years and didn't think it was much cop at all.

I saw one of those new Citroen DS somethings yesterday with chevron-shaped daytime wanker lights.

I drive Skoda Superbs most days. They have DRLs in the front foglamps which use 'normal' bulbs instead of LEDs.

 

Does this mean they're "wanker lights" or do they get the same exemption as old Saabs and Volvos appear to?

Remeber folks, Stereotypes exist for a reason!

 

How is that Audi wagon coming along, Billy? There's an identical one for sale near me, but it's £750 and has been on sale for months.

Not guilty.

 

Cars that use normal bulbs that don't blind the fuck out of everything in sight are fine. Twat head LEDs and \ or badly adjusted Xenons aren't, whatever car they're attached to. That includes the supposedly brilliant self levelling system on Range Rover Sports, that doesn't. Fucking Range Rover Sports. That afternoon one went off the road and got stuck in a bog was one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my driving career.

 

Those LED wanker lights on the DS3 are hilarious, they make an already distended rectum of a 'small' car look even worse than it does in the daylight. Quite an achievement.

 

Although those cars that have fog lamps configured as 'driving lamps' are shit as well. Either:

 

1. Design your fucking headlights so that they throw enough light out in the first place,

 

or

 

2. Stop wiring the fog lights up to come on with your main beam, or at least have the option to run them separately so that everyone you meet on an unlit country road doesn't think you're a bell end.

 

As I say, running my Amazon with those monster Knicks is gonna be brilliant. What do you mean 'turn my foglights off? They're driving lights, get fucked!'

1/ Being put on the day shift, not only that but I start at 12 and finish around 8pm, I liked night shift despite it being harder with more work, now I've got to look forward to sending my days in the back of seriously hot/muggy trailers loading boxes, shit. S'pose I've still got a job when they could have just got rid of me, plus the company are seeking to give me a contract as I'm still agency staff and I've been there the longest.

 

2/ Done my front hedges, bastard of a job that took longer than expected and I cut through one of the wires. Got some cuts on my hands thanks to a fucking rose bush shedding its branches without warning. Gardens are nasty.

 

3/ Twice now, I have missed the chance to snap what looks like a very tidy Blue Hillman Avenger. Whilst going to work its always at the roundabout just turning off and I'm always at the same place, a couple of hundred meters back.

You need to set off earlier then!!!

Did I read the article right? He first went to hospital two months after the crash with breathing difficulties, even though he supposedly had problems since the crash?

 

Moral of the story? Don't wait two months to see a doctor if you have breathing difficulties after a car accident...

 

Remember that guy who inhaled phosgene from welding over brake cleaner and then waited nine days before going to hospital, despite suffering pain, chlorine taste and pissing black fluid?

It's not I'm afraid, Tim. It's currently in the naughty corner awaiting a replacement fuel pump, but as the days go by I become increasingly pissed off with it wasting valuable garage space and I plan on it going (out of my ownership) at some point. I can get a fuel pump pretty easily but I fall out of love with cars quite quickly.

I've not good a good record with VAG stuff and it's not like I wanted to loathe them either. The Pisshat and this Aldi are decent on fuel/veg oil friendly but that is/was their one and only saving grace.

I'm afraid Jon is right, they're just nothing special. Not suggesting they're worse than any of their competitors but they're definately not any better either and I don't get the rush to shell out more for them than other 'ordinary' stuff.

The first time I see anything black coming out when I go for a piss, fuck 999 - it's gonna be a 100mph drive to A+E.

I went away for a Month, back last week, looking forward to the imminent Enfield autojumble, now found out it was held a week early for the first time ever and I've cocking well just missed it. And just to drop a steaming dollop of poo onto my already piss sodden chips, Chase Farm hospital in bastard Enfield called me early on Saturday begging me to fix a machine that borked at an awkward moment, I casually made my way over there, made a simple repair and buggered off home totally unaware.

I was quite possibly maybe sort of thinking about perhaps I might just book a stand there as well. Bollocks.

However, cheered up by the last few pages concerning the tough looking character and black paint exploits.
