New front bulb holders turned up today.  They are getting a coat of paint before fitting.  Checked and adjusted the front brakes whilst it was up in the air to do the track rod ends.

Mr No-Beard isn't exaggerating, there are companies that buy all the driving test slots and then sell them for ludicrous prices.

My parents car insurance wouldn't add a learner as a named driver (2006 Discovery 3, 2003 Defender) so I couldn't practice outside the very expensive lessons.
I gave up learning in 2020 to wait until I was a more palatable age for insurance companies.

With AF.

So I went to the tip, blow me another Series 2 there! Didn't get time to go over to say hello.

Then my tin of crinkle paint turned up at home.

Premium ?? 

The only number I'd be interested in would be his !

I'm certainly not one to complain but his thrusting face and attitude is abusive and borderline assault deserving formal reprimand !

Quote from: nathanglasgow on Apr 02, 2024, 04:30 PMHandy wee website. Just renewed my insurance today, gone down a fiver from last year to £101 so be interesting to see how long it takes for info to be updated.

Which Insurance company did you renew with ?
Mine just gone up £30 with Hagerty. Not a large cash increase, but percent wise a big leap.

I may have mentioned before so edited highlight.
I was stopped by Police whilst driving my Wife's car. Officer said I wasn't insured, I assured him I was and gave insurance company name, and premium !
He quoted ANPR and said our system says you are not insured, moving right in front of my face he then asks 'IS THAT THE CASE' ?
His colleague then shouts over "It's ok that one". The one in my face just turns around and says 'ok you can go, as he walks away.
Pointless I know, but for my four-Peneth-worth I shout after him. OK Sorry About That !

Thanks, I'll check the valve out.



Sadly not that 
The valve stem has perished and the air comes out faster than I can pump it in 

I had that once Alan.
I checked the tyre pressures one day, topped them all up, came back the next day having not moved the car at all and one was flat.
It turned out to be the valve that was sticky / dirty and disturbing it the day before caused it not to seal again when I took the compressor off. A new valve and re-inflated and still good to this day.

Here's a Series 2A bottom radiator hose 530585 connecting a Series 3 radiator to a 2.5 petrol engine.
Best I can do for clarity.
