Enjoyed every minute of this thread, thank you Why didnt you win a prize?....... because they all give prizes to their mates, seen it so many times, sad trophy hunters I show cars often, but I leave a note on them to say 'not to be judged' [been there done that] You did what you set out to do, you are a winner in the true sense well done We you started this project I cautioned you not to get too much money in the car, I thought you might get your fingers burnt, I have a series two that had just shy of £20k spent on it and I paid £11k for it, you can soon loose money if you dont keep an eye on it! but you didnt loose out, you made, result!

hi davyo you have a pm

If you have legal protection hand it over to them and watch the sparks fly

ALDI are better than Tesco et al by a distance I agree with all the positive remarks. Lidl are also great. Who needs 15 choices of baked beans!

Thanks FS, looks the business Keep going for it, you never know Got the galv. bumper from inside 4x4 or what ever they are called, it was marked, so unwrap yours and look, I complained and got £20 refunded!

Ordered it- thanks Interesting watching with the carpet, I only have rubber mats in mine and have been looking out for a rug thingy to go around the gear box area to keep the normal drone down, I guess thats the county advantage ... carpets Keep the faith, seven weeks will fly by now which show is it booked in for?

'what was it that first attracted you to the multi millionaire magician, Paul Daniels?' RIP Mrs Merton

The other poster that gave the reason to claim is correct you have paid inflated premiums, its you turn to get what you are owed I have also had to change my mind, goes against the grain but ......

currys have a Meile C3 for £135, its built in Germany , guarantee'd for two years and sucks like crazy, you turn it down on carpets else it too hard to push Cant belive any body would still be buying a Kirby http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/home-appliances/floorcare/vacuum-cleaners/miele-complete-c3-extreme-powerline-cylinder-vacuum-cleaner-black-10137121-pdt.html

Iphone 5s you know it makes sense

Errr ... in english please

Yep do the same, big, then small, then big...... When I have the big one, I yearn after the economy of a small one, when I have the small one , I yearn after the space and speed Perhaps I should go medium

Excellent topic and I concur with the posts, slightly , but I totally concur with the post above I'm not sure what my issue is, but I 'think' I think in 3D and tend to come to a conclusion quickly, I then become impatient with everybody been slow to catch up, or I just don't get it , there no middle ground! I rework problems multiple times for a good /best outcome and get disappointed if other don't do the same On my book shelf I only have factual books , absolutely no fiction, I hate things that are not true, I have no time for things that are fantasy. My sister is exactly opposite , loves books and spells like a wizard Interestingly my oldest son is exactly same, interesting to watch as a parent. At 50 I came to accept my 'skill/problem(.?) :-)

Thank you 😀

hi you have a PM

I assume you have Winter tyres fitted too ?? or at least tyres that are rated with the sidewall stamp M + S and a snowflake emblem stamp marking ? Good idea but no mandatory in France This year I used a four wheel drive with regular tyres, previously I have used winter tyres and M&S tyres, didn't notice much difference, but then I guess I wouldn't until I did a hard stop

NopeNo chains, no go, if it's 'chains obligition' (chains mandatory ) They don't want the road blocking by a numty pushing ahead and getting stuck without chains Skiing =snow =alps

OK now I can help you If you want you can use socks in France, instead of chains Google autosock and put your tyre size in, get a size number , then go to eBay and look see, if you need size 698 I have a pair you can have! Or google roof box web site and put your tyres in there, for chains there are other web sites Only when you get to the fancy end of cars do you need to be careful with wheel clearance you will probably get all the way there and only need chains form the last couple of miles I have been six times and used socks/ chains 3 times so its 50/50 for me Socks worked fine all the way up to Avoriaz, but take a torch, gloves and a kneeing pad!!!! overtime I fitted them in the dark and snowing [pack them at the top!!] I had to use chains just to park once, in your favour the shogun is 4x4 so you are at an advantage, but when the weather turns the police insist that chain /socks go on , or you don't proceed practice putting them on before you go enjoy the snow

It tends not to be that simple You need the profile of the tyre Try eBay they aren't that expensive for plain chains My Lexus needs zero clearance round the back, this is a messy option and requires an expensive half chain Look at polar chains Also Thule and spike spiders But you will find different chains for 18" dependant on profile Hope it helps

Been paying £60 each, nice offer £80!for 4........... bargain!
