Re: What did you do today?

If the world goes to shit in a spectacular way, think of London becoming a glow in the dark glass surfaced car park then simple technology might be all that is left working. Anything with an ECU would probably be fried by an EMP bomb. What is the least technical vehicle you would like to have tucke...

Re: What did you do today?

Subjected myself to the mouth breathers on FB marketplace with two scrap value vehicle adverts, Punto and transit tipper. Seems like every foreigner in Scotland (and some from abroad) have messaged me this morning. One was definitely coming down from Aberdeen leading me to tell others it was sold p...

Handy trick on the lights, not seen that one, cheers for that. The old mans Z had proper cataracts last time I saw it and that should do the job nicely.

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

Recently I looked at one of these as a potential replacement for our Citigo, when we need to replace it, whose normal longest journey is about 60 miles to Norwich and back.
