Re: Nissan Vannette/LDV Cub. Opinions?

Jtd 1.9 engines aren't too bad. The later multijet wasn't as reliable from what I've seen in both 1.3 and 1.9. I'd still recommend a bingo or partner from early 2000s with a 2.0 HDI. Get the multi space version as seats barrel forward or do what I've done and removed the 60% side leaving a single re...

Re: Two wheels good.

Said forum member also had an argument with a belligerent MacDonalds manager and left hungry then was stopped by the bizzies a few miles from home.
At least their phone was charged though.

Re: Crash! Bang! Wallop! - Eddie Honda Shirking His Duties Edition

How the hell did they come out of that alive? To be honest it's fucking impressive. It's a testament to the build quality of new motors and shows why they are so bloated. I doubt he'd be alive if it was an E30 for example. I wonder if he didn't have his belt on and was thrown clear? At speeds of th...

Re: Nissan Vannette/LDV Cub. Opinions?

Dmf is Duel mass flywhee. I'd be looking older vehicles ideally for the mileage you do. Depends how much room you need but I swear by the early Berlingo/ partner for being as good as a car as it is a small van. I've done 13500 miles in mine since October and it's let me down 3 times.
