I just don't suffer fools gladly and I can't be bothered to pussyfoot around

Bye bye!

I'll try, glojo ... Why do we get so attached to cars that aren't worth all that much in intrinsic terms, and are replaceable under the terms of our insurance? Let the bl**dy thieves have them, the world is stuffed with 2nd hand cars worth only a fraction of their original purchase price...

Machines can't be stupid. Their designers, producers, or owners can. Doubt it. Heavy thundery rain forecast this weekend. Absurd and unsustainable generalisation. Some of them are very good. Perhaps the ones you 'tried' just don't like you and/or your attitude? Please join their ranks and leave...

Yet another hellishly clever idea Sp!ke (said in total sincerity & without irony). What with that and the retracting star I reckon you're a genuine inventor. Isn't there a niche market for you and your unique ideas? The niche being ... M-B owners worldwide wanting to protect and safeguard our...

I wish Sp!ke could be persuaded to develop his retracting star device commercially - it could be the next cat's eyes ... think of all the trophy hunters there must be in the developing world where M-B is increasingly finding its new market

Yup, same here. Discount Autoparts &c &c bulbs are generally cheaper but last less long, not being an auto-electrician I don't know why but someone told me they have weaker filaments and are prone to disintegrate especially under the vibration from a diesel ? could just be old wives' tales !

Respect ;) I'm going back there next Easter for the first time in 30 years, wonder if there'll be anything left of what I remember ... sadly just a shade too young for Flower Power ... Gay Lib had hit town with a vengeance by the time I was there, they were a bit militant with it too :(

Do you use Four Wheels in Fulbourn?

Come to think of where's this 'san fransico' place? It isn't that provincial little dorf stuck miles from anywhere way out west where the only way you can get around is on some old tram type thing is it? Not that place where buggery's rife and everyone's a drug addict? Not that one is it?

www.comptongarages.co.uk built a concrete-panel one for us 6 years ago for around £3.5K, done in a day, all very neat and tidy, new concrete floor, double wooden doors, steel side door, window, roof lights, power points &c &c. Prices probably gone up a bit now but it looked OK if a bit...

I thought 'mini Maybach' when I 1st saw it, then read the article and ... it does take several styling cues from the appalling Maybach. Oh dear ... Just as they still build the Hillman Hunter in Iran, do you suppose they'll go on turning out superceded M-B models in China, India &c. for anyone...

Gutted for you. No possibility of sorting out a garage in case you do get another M-B I suppose?

Downloaded, thanks for that :)

A: super-rich geeks who want to stay super-rich (and they probably lease the cars anyway...and claim against their super-tax for them)

He's in so much debt that 'Neverland' may have to be sold, which might curtail his frolics, however innocent or otherwise Whatever is going to become of the man? (?man?) His life & career are in ruins, he's down to about 6 st. in weight, looks a wreck; he's untouchable for any advertising or...

Jacko as well now allegedly...bit early for a comeback isn't it?

this probably should have been posted in Favorites ... sorry :o

What an idiot :crazy:
