Re: MGB GT fettling

Nothing really to report lately as I've barely used the 405's as have access to the Terios for a bit and like a change every now and then. The only problem with that being that the old man has spilt milk in the boot the daft fucker :roll: Hopefully a load of bicarbonate of sods liberally sprinkled o...

Re: Electric vehicles, pros and cons. Have your say.

Isn't there an issue with some types of battery that they can be damaged if they're on on charge continually? (OK I'm a Luddite and that might be bollocks) As a rough rule lithium ion batteries should be kept between 15% and 80-85% to keep them in top condition. Leaving your laptop plugged in 24/7 ...

You have to remember Hooli has genetics on his side so the steering wheel being too far away simply isn't a problem.

Hidden* Features on Cars

I had a couple of Audi Coupes bought for less than a hundred quid, lack of a manual was least in your mind. In the boot of one were two peculiar brackets and bits of shitty very rough carpet stuck to the bottom of each. I didn't think much to them but was slightly perplexed why they were there and t...

Re: What did you do today?

I discovered that if you hold down the 'Lock' button on the fob, it closes all the windows as well as lock and alarm. Also, if you do the same with the unlock button, it opens the doors and all the windows. I've only had the sodding car (nearly) two years! I learnt that by complete accident about m...

Re: 1968 MG Midget

Please don't beat yourself up over it. You are a man in a shed doing stuff that used to be second nature in this country picking apart appalling work and making it better to the best of your abilities.
