I do think it's a real shame that we have to lose genuinely good, tuneful ICE engines alongside all the drek. Is anyone really going to miss boggo four pot engines though? Doubt it.

Well, the German car industry is lobbying hard along those lines for sure. But none of it matters, the existing next phase of EU emissions rules are so strict that manufacturers are halting development of ICE as they are becoming uneconomic and the writing is on the wall anyway. They would need...

I'd love to meet the person who's searching eBay for "Street Machine"

I chatted to the seller a bit, seems like a nice guy and all the answers were pretty much what I wanted to hear. Shame it hasn't got the original seatbelts as harnesses are not my thing on the road, for them to be any use at all they are so restrictive. Not hard to put back in though. Anyway I...

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204034580412 Very nice. It’s on FB too, seller wants £14k and change which seems a bit toppy but it’s got all the spec. Think it’s pretty well known as being a good build? Certainly has the right names attached to it, Rensport, EFI, engine dynamics. Surprised it...

I don’t know what you mean. Sturdy little things. The panel with the fuel filler in it would certainly never flex when you put the nozzle from the pump in the filler. Very reassuring 😂

I commuted from Winchester to Newbury in one for over a year. Many a sales rep was startled by a tiny little red car overtaking them verrrrrry sloooowly. The uphill bits of the A34 were a challenge though 🤪

How I wish that had the Trofeo turbo conversion on it. Also, needs a set of Turinis (obligatory comment)

He he he he. "Cummins", that's rude. That is all.

Ah, that is a battery tester, so it should give an indication of whether the battery needs to be replaced or not. It’s saying good/recharge so doesn’t look like it needs a battery. It’s either just been sitting for a while or isn’t charging - but I’d hope they’d be able to tell you if the...

They could easily just be due to low battery voltage. Just a code read is fairly useless for issues like that, they should reset them and see if they come back. Misfires or other more serious codes are different. Not sure how good the inspection was if they didn’t even stick a proper battery...

I did wonder about that…...

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363855386608 Oddly, the listing fails to mention : Offside Front Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively damaged significantly reducing structural strength (5.3.6 (a) (i)) Going back through the MoT history is...... well...... it's something :ROFLMAO:

Wait, people on here own Clios?

What's the car used for? Honestly, if it's a road car I really wouldn't bother going wider. If you're genuinely getting close to the limits of grip on a 182 on the road then I'd start with the basics, are all the bushes in good order, how old are the shocks, when's the last time the car had an...

Ah, OK, fair enough. What tool are you using to run the SQL? Is it MS Access/SQL Developer/Something else? At the moment all I can really suggest is doing a text search through the SQL and looking for anywhere that Column1 is being set, probably look something like "@Column1 = <something>"

Is it part of a stored procedure? It would be horrendous from a readability perspective, but if they're defining @Column1 somewhere then that could do it. When you say SQL, do you mean MSSQL or one of the other types?

Jesus, that sucks. I guess the only positive is at least it was "only" the car and wasn't the house. :(

It’s finally gone live. I don’t have a FB account so if anyone who does fancies giving it a share to any relevant groups that would be much appreciated.

They'll be so moist with excitement they'll be unable to sleep until they own the magnificence.
