managed to get it sorted down the road today - had to go local as could not drive the car very far. owning older cars can get expensive.... new brake discs, calipers and pads

can you mod older cars to take E10 petrol?

just tried to get my lexus into my local garage and they're saying they are two mechanics down and won't be able to book it in for about 3 weeks.....

understood Tony, good to know, should help with diagnosing the issue

cheers Tony - will try to get up to WIM next week or so

yeah it is Tony

maybe mine hit the same pot hole - there is a huge one on Chorleywood road

Thanks Tony - does it tend to seize up?

yeah will do Rich, will go down to WIM - will probably be after xmas/new years now though

Yeah I think there may have been a pot hole - I can drive through it - its ok at 70mph - tyre centre it is then for a check up

I have been having juddering issues on my lexus when im going between 50 and 60mph. Is it geo that is off? Getting annoying rather than stopping me from driving. Before I take it in (either garage or tyre centre) wanted to get some feedback on here to avoid wasting time and money cheers

think thats why most people have them these days

that answers a question I had as well!

are there any additives you can get from halfords?

do you need to start using 98 RON or Vpower once they bring it in if your car is not compatible?

Yeah I read in Car mag that Ferrari were coming down hard on replicas - not sure why as its pretty obvious they are not real when you see them in real life

Do you remember the Kodak building? Is it still there?

Bennetts End - Reckon late 50s? Maybe 1958?

The square at Adeyflield is still there:

Yeah it has changed a lot - wasn't it two or three villages joined together to make the new Hemel? Now its probably five or six as its grown out to Apsley, Leverstock etc Is this right in town?

yeah its hilarious - some of the songs and the gramophone sketch

Did my Lexus insurance the other day and ended up paying £70 more than last year - shopped around, used Confused and GoCompare and ended up with M&S with breakdown for £350 - the original quote was for £390. I tried getting a lower quote but in the end I accepted that insurance has gone up. Not sure why as most people are doing way less miles what with Covid and all....

that one looks the business. also looks like it has been well maintained so would expect to see a pile of receipts a few inches high for thousands to keep it in good nick nice red interior as well - looks completely spotless

https://youtu.be/xqpqc8iKn7I Remember watching this at school - a police constable would do the rounds at schools and show this film and then warn you that this is how you would end up if you did any crime. Loads of scenes from Notting Hill / Alperton / Ladbroke Grove 1975 and also the cat from red dwarf as a kid!

These cars are made to last to be honest
