I need to phone the insurers to chase up the replacement tow-bar. They had a £700 quote from some company and i`m not letting it slide. But i`ll have a word about the charge.

I would have thought that seeing as I was not at all at fault then the liability for everything is on the other party. Why am I having to pay anything at all to anyone? I`ll be phoning the insurance company tomorrow.

Nope. I claimed through my ins company and the liability was all the other drivers, I had the dashcam to prove it which I didn't even need.

Some of you will remember last September I was hit from behind by a young lad in a Cmax. I`ve now been awarded £2`500. All well and good....but the claims management company who were acting on behalf of me via my insurance company are taking 25% of that. No idea if this is correct but it seems to me that the other party`s insurance should cover their fee. Or am I wrong? Cheers

Got the front brakes freed off. Both calipers had one slide pin completely seized. Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk

I think your right on the money there. Will sort it on the morrow.[emoji106] Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk

Yes....i`ve beta tested several operating systems for MS and I have to say 10 is a pointless load of sh!te! More like windows 98, no wonder they gave it away.

Feels like it. But the same both sides?......drove it but can't shake it loose so I'll have to check it out tomorrow. Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk

Changed front disks and pads yesterday. Now they are binding like f**k! Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk

Down the cement works chimney perhaps!

Nice........let's hope some thriving tawt doesn't also have the removal tool. Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk

They are really really very handy guys, if you don`t have one go and get one installed! Yesterday I nipped in to TESCO to get some flowers for my mother, seeing as we`ve not been for a few weeks. I parked in a bay and opposite me was a blue Peugot. (So I was parked face to face with the Peugot and about 18 inches from it.) 10 minutes later I head back to the car where this plump bird says, "Is this your car?"......"Yes"......"You must have ran into mine when you parked up and there`s a lump missing from my bumper and i`ve got loads of witnesses who saw your car right up against mine so don`t deny it" I looked at the tiniest what looks to me like a stone chip out of her bumper, you had to really get close to see it. Now there`s absolutely no way I hit her car and the wife agreed I was miles off it. Also....now call me pedantic but.......what was once a blue Peugot has now miraculously turned into a white Vauxhall Vectra! "See that love?.......it`s called a dash-cam and it will show exactly what didn`t happen so, you fat fu@king chancer..... fu@k off before I call the police!"

I`ll let you know the parts and the cost mate no worries.

I'm replacing both disks and pads savage. I was just wondering if these take a special pad. Cheers Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk

Don`t you just miss it? I`m thinking of fitting a set of drilled & grooved front disks. Will normal pads fit?

And the ar$holes which do that think they can park where they want. Disabled bay at Manchester royal infirmary. They were parked there when I arrived at 1.45 and were still there at 3.25 when I left. I had to park quarter of a mile away.

They are also not supposed to act like a bunch of little Hitlers but they do!........Coppers.......I would`nt **** on one if it was on fire! That`s how low they now are, no longer the friendly bobby....more like a Robocop come thug.

The 1st ones were truely awful looking with that stupid pseudo Alfa grill but I saw one in Corfu the other week, a 2008 model and it looked superb.

Within a couple of days of airing each show will be available for download on most torrent sites! Completely ilegal so I don`t want to hear of any of you lot downloading it.............................before me!

And then a few days later I saw this: 2.6 litre beast....and what a good looking motor compared to the hideous B9! Talked with the lad, a local.....he was a Subaru nutter just like us.

I`m talking about the new 2 litre works S, whatever bad luck you`ve had in the past fair enough but i`ve had 2 from new a 53 and a 59 and they were excellent, even the Chrystler engined supercharged early ones, once the engine had been rebuilt and properly tuned (the yanks don`t have a clue!) by the team at BMW they were brilliant. The 59 was the later, quicker and better engine with turbo and 40 plus MPG.

Not a chance.....build quality is no where near as good....plus, they need to get rid of the embarrassing "ST" lady towel moniker. The new works S is a very fast little motor.

I quite fancy the new 2 litre Cooper S works.....150mph and an Imrezza chaser The wife is due a change soon!

Or....what is he in.....a biscuit tin on wheels with milk bottle tops for brakes! Not a very smart boy.
