I'm still waiting for my engine aswell. Still running around in the truck currently spending £100 on diesel every three days. Wish I just bought the car now.

Don't know were you got those stats from. Most of my vehicles do over 150k before I out them. Petrol Vectra used as a van from day one. Just short of 150k before I outed it oil,plugs and one set of pads and disks. Still run fine. Ford Ranger used for towing 1ton cherry picker 250k oil,diff and...

I wish I could convince them to do the job as well. Then that would be the perfect solution

Just had a call from a customer and there desperate for me to do the job. They know my euro6 van is dead so they have offered to drive me there and back. I might not buy a new car now and just find more customers willing to drive me to work. 🤣🤣

You would think I would know as I've just taxed one of them. I think it's £260.

All those are on affinity so I'm not eligible. 😭 Also I'm after an exclusive as want the roof rails I've decided to put the van up for sale when I get it back. Then look for a car.

Another 8 days have passed and no news. Spotted 3 white MG5's today almost one after another. One in Ongar high St,one on the four wantz and the other on the 414 just before Writtle. I now want one more than ever. Just a little concerned I won't have enough room.🤔 I'm spending £100 on diesel...

My cousin on my dad's side is married to a Dean. Shouldn't I be entitled to the affinity +. 😂

If it makes you feel better your not alone. I've been waiting months for a new engine for one of my vans. I wouldn't mind but it was only just put back on the road after another minor collision took it off the road for three months. Before that a mirror was torn off before that a hole in the...

I may have made the wrong decision. The value of the van rocketed so I decided to repair. The garage I left it with told me they would have a replacement engine within a week + a couple days to plum it in. Last week I thought I would phone for an update. When I enquired about the van there...

Nothing wrong with mismatched tyres on every day runabouts. One of my vans also has mismatched tyres all at different tread depths. There's nothing wrong with a tyre that's been plugged properly neither. My N/S front has two plugs and my O/S rear has three. If I had a performance car then I...

I've never been keen on Bridgestone tyres they were all I could get for my 2wd Ranger as they were a weird size. I think they were called Bridgestone Teflon's 😄 I joined the A120 at Stansted backwards once, 😱. When I test drove the 5 I gave it the beans and thought they were fine though. But...

The best thing on the Tesla is the fart button. How have we managed without that in our pesant spec motors.😆

My current vans don't have rear windows so I don't think it will worry me. Don't get me started on people that moan about the centre headrest in the way. Do you ask passengers to put there heads in there laps 😄

My vehicles work for me not the other way around. I'm going to drive mine how I always drive. Electric is far cheaper than diesel. Screw cheap tariffs plug in whenever it's needed and carry on.

My 110v tools and leads have similar plugs and sockets and they often get submerged in deep muddy puddles. They haven't corroded and I've not been shocked yet. 😄

Is it a smiley banana engined tranny? Best van ever. Apart from rust and crispy wiring. Mine dissolved 20 years ago.😭

The cable needs to have a dedicated place. One of the college's I work for has an kangoo EV. When the van has been full to the roof with rubbish they have managed to skip the cable twice. If I do buy an MG the cable will go under the bonnet as every square inch will be put to use. I'm not a fan...

Years ago I had to price a dealership referb in Derby and the concrete slab in the car valeting bay had four potholes were the car tyres clearly sat. It was more than obvious it was caused by a pressure washer.

When my van was about a month old I remember taking my niece to work with me I was loading up when I heard a little voice repeating the word clean clean over and over. Didn't think much of it until there was a scratchy slapping noise on the side. When I looked down the N/S there she was proudly...
