Hi Plenty of other folks on here of a similar age my friend, you're definitely not on your own!

If he'd wanted something more set in stone he should've either asked for it, or looked elsewhere for somewhere to live. Bloody wimp, he's going to struggle in life with an attitude like that. I am, however, most disappointed in this new update. I was hoping for fisticuffs, police chases and headlines at 9!

Only a fool would buy them, unless you wanted the team for another race series instead. But then, if you did you'd just buy a team that was cheaper, as an ex-F1 team will carry a certain premium.

It's the North West, so although they do get snow some toerag quickly comes round and steals it

So had my 911. And it was sh*t.

Indeed, it's nice to see someone. Who. Doesn't. Speak like. This. Playing the part of Kirk!

Blimey, didn't see that one coming. Why the change?

Sorry, I didn't mean it like that! I just think if you don't have any details, I wouldn't waste precious time on trying to find a key when it'll be better long term just to get another one.

Apart from the wood, that's lovely.

Buy a new one.

As long as you're under about 85%LTV, you should be okay to borrow enough. If you're over that, then don't even bother looking any further, as interest rates will be crippling.

You may not need planning permission at all: You can build an extension without up to a certain limit. Check the .gov pages for a lot of info on this.

Make sure you confirm that you can build an extension there first, before you get too far down the road. /VOE

New one is due to start filming next year.

Meh, same thing happened to my tow eye cover on the rear when I pulled a sticker off I'd put on for LM. 2 year old car, covered under warranty. I suspect some cars had some seriously dodgy paint from factory.

Exactly. The man breathed fresh air into the best sci fi franchise, something I wasn't sure should be done, so imagine what he can do for the second best

Tbh if your wife relies on transport that much, then a RWD is the wrong vehicle to own. Either a cheapy 4x4 or even a FWD hatch will be infinitely better. Winter tyres help in snow, but they're not a catch all saver: You need the right car in the first place. Winter tyres are a softer compound by design, you'll always wear them quicker. Quicker wear = need to replace more often = extra cost. Not trying to knock anyone's choice here, I can appreciate that those in the north can definitely benefit from them, they're just not for me.

At £55k it was a bargain, at £85k it's really not.

Lack of feel, increased wear on a day like today, extra cost?

I suspect you're going to really, really struggle. Who have you tried so far? You might try A-Plan, they've mirrored a good amount of NCB for me in the past albeit not commercial. As for staying as a trader, I guess you just need to fulfil the conditions of the insurance for it to be valid. What does it specify?

Toyo don't say that any more, they're good up to -9c They're not sketchy in the winter at all, except on ice where no tyre is any good*. They're rated B-C for wet grip too, which is better than the T1-R and the same as the new T1 Sport. I'm being a tad facetious here, as of course they definitely have their limits, but as long as you drive to the conditions then they're fine. But yeah, this is about winter tyres not R888s. I can understand why some folks use them, especially in the north, but anywhere south of Birmingham I don't see them as a necessity. *Unless it has spikes in it, or chains around it.

Nope, never have done. R888s throughout the winter on the MR2, never had an issue.

Top right, 'Follow this topic'.

I've clamped round headrests, sun visors, slightly rolled down side windows, basically anything I can get the clamp round!

They're clamping down on those two, I wouldn't be surprised if they were outlawed this year by most TDOs.
