Now everybody will know the reg of your car.

Everyone I drive past knows mine!

Yep - but they don't know where you live.

Every time I go along a residential street I see cars in driveways no
one covers their number plates. I don't understand how connecting a car
registration to an address is helping criminal activity.

Mike

judith once said that he would report my reg number to Humberside plod in
connection with hanging around school entrances, drug deals and ram
raiding.

Hopefully if someone made up that sort of ****, the police would do them
for wasting their time.

It would be interesting to see what they did on that.

Unlikely he would actually be silly enough to try it tho, its just another
silly troll.

For what you paid you could have had a Grandeur, and
still saved heaps and had no repairs at all in the 12 years
except the car crash which presumably the insurance paid for.

No - I paid it to keep my 40 yrs no claims bonus.

Off the top of my head.

Two power steering pumps and racks £2500
Subframe £2200.
Alternator, water pump and belts £1000
Three camchains £ £2400
Suspension parts, springs, dampers, arms etc £2000
Clutch £1000
Body work after our lass pranged it £1500
Plugs, MAF sensor, crankshaft sensor, radio fitting and light bulbs
£600 So around - £13200, which is what I paid for it and new it was
£25000, so I have saved £1400 on the new price.

Bloody hell, my car is that old and has had no repairs done.
The only thing it has needed are servicing and some wiper blades.
Your car is what's known as a lemon.

was just $100.

I did have one insurance claim on me from the guy whose car mine rolled backwards into when I jumped off the bridge, but as I had protected NCB, my premiums weren't affected.

I got the claim form in the HDU.

I had mine repaired at the same time as when our lass pranged it in a car park at my own £1500 expense.

My 156 WAS a money pit as it burned oil like a 2 stroke, it was a new cat every year and my last bill to get through MOT was £2500.

159 is far superior except for the lack of ALFA growl.

I have decided that after I get a new job, I will take out a £30000 loan at 3% and buy this for cash.

The loan will cost me £900 pm and as my disposable income will be £2200 pm it's very doable. The other £46000 will buy me a £32000 motorhome after I pay off my £14000 on 0% cards before 2020.

It's an Alfa.

Could be worse.

FIAT.

Friday morning was the 4th time in the last twelve months
I have had the AA out to sort out my works van. And on
Friday afternoon they towed back the replacement FIAT van.

I have booked an appointment at Mangoletsi with a view to buy one of these
new.

I am going to use the 159 for my new job to pay in cash for the £33000 Giulia which Our Lass will swan around in all day long making the local golf widows green with envy.

They all have poxy Audis, Jags, Range Rovers and X5s - common as muck.

I have decided that after I get a new job, I will take
out a £30000 loan at 3% and buy this for cash.

Just another rat hole to pour your money down, you watch.

The loan will cost me £900 pm and as my disposable
income will be £2200 pm it's very doable.

Doable, but completely ****ing stupid.

The other £46000 will buy me a £32000 motorhome
after I pay off my £14000 on 0% cards before 2020.

And if the **** does hit the fan economically,
you'll be up **** creek without a paddle, again.

Just to get a posers car that is a rat hole for your money.

How much have you spent on that car in total now, not counting
petrol etc ?

Off the top of my head.

Two power steering pumps and racks £2500
Subframe £2200.
Alternator, water pump and belts £1000
Three camchains £ £2400
Suspension parts, springs, dampers, arms etc £2000
Clutch £1000
Body work after our lass pranged it £1500
Plugs, MAF sensor, crankshaft sensor, radio fitting and light bulbs
£600 So around - £13200, which is what I paid for it and new it was
£25000, so I have saved £1400 on the new price.

Bloody hell, my car is that old and has had no repairs done.
The only thing it has needed are servicing and some wiper blades.

Simon ................... ****ing Hell!

I thought northerners were sensible with money....

Even if that stereotype had some truth in it,
there will always be some exceptions, stupid.

The exceptions should be deported!

The european court of justice wont allow that and you
lot havent left yet. And you hairy legged cross dressers
will be staying in the EU anyway.

They can't stop us doing something now we're leaving.

Nowhere to deport them to, stupid.
