  1. My brother has the 3.2 with the auto box, he hates it with a vengeance. Fortunately he only has it for a few months and then gets another car.
  2. Every case is different but I'd agree with that. Plus it would save the tax payer a fortune
  3. I'd go with the replacement engine, if yours has done 140 k something else is going to fail. Just remember everything else on the vehicle has done 140k. The motor industry designs vehicles to last ten years or 100,000 miles, most vehicles will do more especially if they are looked after, but you have already done 40% over that. If you like every vehicle and it's in good condition it could be worth a punt.

    moto gp

    Highlights are repeated again tonight at 6 on ITV 4 . Great race, the Ducati's were fast, the Yamahas have always been a little under powered.
  6. Exactly, we spend a fair bit of time in Italy . Your average italian is considerably worse off than your average Englishman . There is a lot of corruption ( just like the EU ) nothing happens quickly. From what I understand there is a huge black economy just like Greece. As others have said we buy more from Europe than we export , they won't want to stop selling to us.
  7. Nice work, always liked Meccano
  8. Good luck with the op, I've two friends that had better luck than you.
  9. Proper workshop and a very nice job, well done
  10. Only people that can unlock it is Vodaphone via apple. Get your money back.
  11. Best wishes for you wife and you. A friend had a kidney removed for the same reason a few years back with very good results

    Frozen Shoulder

    I guess my wife was lucky, she had her shoulder manipulated under anaesthetic . She had a lot more movement once she came around and so far it appears to have worked. Good luck with your surgery.
  13. Imagine getting paid to do that.
  14. That's good, quality is as good as a basic GoPro and a third of the price

    Cold feet

    I'm diabetic and suffer with cold feet. One of my doctors told me to rub Vicks vapour rub onto my feet, surprising how well it works. Apparently it opens up blood vessels. I'd like to get some silk socks too but can't find them locally
  16. Wait until Mrs May has G4S protecting us, you'll certainly feel safe then. I've a couple of ex DPG mates earning very good money now, there a lot of work out there for the right people.
  17. I've still got I think July 98 of some Calendar with Jo Guest on it hanging in my garage. Apart from the picture of Ms Guest I keep it because my supervisor threw it in the bin, then HR made him retrieve it and hand it to me .
  18. Personally I can't stand the woman, but I bet she's paid more tax than most of us here put together. So I'd say the child is entitled to it. The one thing I do admire about her is she has kept the child and as anyone who has a disabled child knows it's a lot of work.
  19. Hard to know which was my favourite, the most frustrating have been older Triumphs. Currently running a Harley and a Buell Had one of these when I was 17 been looking for one for a long time now with no luck
  20. Probably the same as those who wasted their time messing about discovering penicillin and electricity. They did well considering the budget they had compared to NASA
  21. Well put , words are cheap action by the vast majority of Muslims is needed.
  22. Rules of Engagement 12 Benfleet Rd Hadleigh SS71QB opposite Magnet and Southerns on Vic House corner roundabout.
