What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Luckily my car appears to be made of rock and the gates come off worse [emoji51] Just wasn't paying attention swung out and clipped it [emoji35]

Drove into the gate at end of drive proceeded to smash the 2nd gear synchro in sympathy for 3rd on way to work. Not a happy bunny today. Still I reckon it's the clutch given up and not my poor driving. Glad it's Friday

Importing a car
Would love to be a fly on the wall in your house when you tell the misses. ' i'm just off to view a couple of cars' When you back? December ! Haha I'm gonna dig out all the paperwork for mine later, I know that the bloke who sold it to me imported it himself but he does run a garage business.

Importing a car
It's hard work, looked into it a while back as bargains can be had, i'd pay to get someone to do it, hence why new era and the rest of them charge you handsomely for the pleasure. You got to find it, Get it to the point of export, Get it De registered in the country of origin, and ready for importation into UK. Not sure how strict our laws are about seeds grass mud etc still being on or in the car Find someone willing to ship it, a RORO cargo vessel i far cheaper but then you risk the people loading/unloading nicking bits, container would be best. PAY for above shipping, insurance dock fees etc. Wait six to eight weeks and hope it's not been hijacked by pirates, Get it off the boat in UK, pay for storage, import tax, vat prepped for an sva if needed buy model report I'd needed prep for UK, fogs mph/kmh etc. Sva test and mot. Probably pay more tax along the line.

Red 2001 Forester S Turbo
Hand car wash I'll have you know ! I don't have anywhere to was mine at home at the mo, on the street with a bucket doesn't appeal to me [emoji26] And the folks don't have a hosepipe any more ?? (Bought stupid x hose blew up) I'm fooked if I'm buying them one so I can use it So 5 pounds every other week is acceptable. Been using my current hand car wash for years they know what they're doing ie not aiming the lance down the scoop [emoji35] etc. Plus I drove my van into the roof of the and killed a big !Removed! light, (was being watched in by a member of staff) so I feel I owe him at lease two washes [emoji51]

Happened to be sat in the carwash earlier so took this on mine, it's old maybe 7+ years but I can't see them changing the interface that much unless yours is a fancy touch screen one

Red 2001 Forester S Turbo
Which kenwood do you have ?
-
Red 2001 Forester S Turbo
Had one on a Ford orion a family member had once, To be honest it didn't really do much more than when you tilted the roof, maybe a little less wind noise when fully open, I suppose that cars and are has come along way in 20 years so may be more effective nowadays. With regards to your Bluetooth coming through the front speakers on a call, have a look at the 'call settings' On my kenwood you have to turn it into standby then go to the menu, it brings up a sub menu where you can see the phone status and if you want to auto answer the call, weather it beeps and finally which speakers you want the phone to come through
