I don't know what I'm doing tomorrow let alone that far ahead.
Jo is back in hospital as of tomorrow and it may be a long termer so I've no idea what's happening with work/ kids etc.
I'd like to think I'll be there though mate. We need a beer or 9!
I've got to be honest, one of our cars had them fitted and I couldn't tell the difference! Lol.
New Standard ones will be better in terms if money saved. And Trophy's were hardly known for being sloppy when they were new.
It will be the storage/transport cups I expect.
We get them at work but in all fairness they do die down over time. (On the demonstrators that I see every day)
Oddly though, some are much worse than others. I can see no logical explantIon for that.
Screen tech are superb. I've worked at 4 different garages, and have used nobody else.
They do ALL of our work. (I work for BMW) Tinting, security films, scratch repairs, chip repairs.
I cannot recommend them enough.
(Screen tech in fishponds, just to clarify!)
People spray too harsh a chemical on it, and it reacts. Badly.
I've had loads of them with 'sticky dash' syndrome. It's minging.
I found IPA (50/50 with water) was good at improving it but I've yet to find a way of completely curing it.
With regards to the headlights, my mates dad just bought some updated units for his 1970's scimitar.
Not expensive and are a 100 times better than the old dates ones.
Good to see it back though, it's a credit to you.
So the trip is lying to me! Mother fucker says I'm doing 55mpg! Lol.
I do 100 miles a week (I only use it for work, I hate it) so I suppose £10 a week to get to work is ok really.
Thank you all.
Yep. Cheap ones do crop up!
Mine was a 54 reg moonstone, done 99k with proper history and the bloke wanted £1000! I ended up giving him £800 for it. He'd not long spent £600 on dpf removal and remap! Lol.
Suspension, seats, wheels... Basically a gti with a Diesel engine.
With the DPF removed and mapped, they are really reliable too and go like stink!
My last one had 135bhp! Lol
Yeah that's my job tonight. I'll fill it up and see what's going on.
A bit disappointed with the total mileage though. 400 miles on a full tank is do-able in a 172 if you drive like a nun.
@GrahamS
Help me bro! I've just done the first tank of fuel in. 499 miles??
I was hoping for 500+.
The last 2 bars on the fuel gauge have disappeared and the computer reads zero, within the last 30 miles. Is this normal?? I used to drive my 182 for miles and miles on the fuel light let alone...
