13 grand!!! You could get a nice car for that... in fact you could get a road-going car, an off-road car AND a trailer to get it to the mud ;-)

Ok, well, it doesn't do it at the moment, but I will keep an eye on it. Maybe I should make it tell me its fault codes anyway.

Oh, I've got the three litre ZD, I understand from TTT2 that they do suffer from overboost sometimes, but you know because there is no more acceleration, so you take your foot off the pedal, it resets, and off you go again. I wasn't going to bother with a boost guage (but wondering now if I...

Hope it's like 'Enders! (was intended to be lighthearted) lol

who is single and who is in a relationship? Just curious (and bored, I'm off work with a bad back, I have a million (physical) things to do, but the osteopath has told me to rest). Come to that, are you all men? Or are there some women here too?

Eeek! Having said that, I have been made redundant a couple of times and it turned out that I got a better job, whereas if I hadn't been made redundant I would have stuck at the rubbish job. Good luck with the breaker business.

Bought new antifreeze today, it'll be going in at the weekend (changing water completely and all new antifreeze). Yes, it's got NATS - deadlocking, immobiliser and alarm. A 'crooklock'? That's not a bad idea. I am thinking of getting a tracker fitted - need to see how much they are, and for...

Yes, 452 miles from Glasgow to here, to be precise, and it behaved beautifully. It only took 7 and 3/4 hours, a smidge over a full tank, and three cans of Red Bull. I left here at 11.30am, took the bus, tram, train to Gatwick, plane to Glasgow, taxi to car, and drove back. Got back at 12.30am...

it's 2001 Jace, couldn't afford newer. I'll just have to see what happens.

I bought it on ebay, I flew up to Glasgow and drove back. I very different car to my beloved Y60, better in some ways and worse in others. The man who sold it kept saying 'such a simple car' - I was thinking 'simple? bloody hell, you should have seen the Y60! All you get is an engine and...

Ah, I just fell in love ....

Thanks for that, will try it when I get home. TTT2 - what's the top speed of your Y61 please?

I can't get on from the laptop at home, using mobile internet. Somebody very kindly posted a shell command for me to use, but I can't find the post. Would you mind telling me it again please? Thanks

Tesco online, Amazon, play.com, hmv, virgin records....

Welcome to caravanning! I hope you enjoy yourselves, I certainly love mine and the holidays I have in it. I don't have any stabilisers and no snaking problems but it's a twin axle and I find them much easier to two than singles. Just think about loading/noseweight and keep you tyres pumped up...

Fingers crossed for you!

Claude the hypnotist explained: "I'm here to put you into a trance; I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience." The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat. "I want each of you to keep your eyes on this antique watch...

I suppose the decision is: go for an old Troll which is uber reliable and almost impossible to kill, but which is cumbersome, juicy and dies on hills or go for the spanky sparkly 3L turbo charged intercooled machine, fly up hills, and take a chance on the reliability/longevity issue. If I do...

"anyway Karin my 2000 x reg y61 3.0tdi zd has just had rebuild, head gasket failure revealed one slight crack in a piston, then 2 more surfaces. so 4 new ones fitted. superb motor, on a good day, lets face it not going to get much else in a troll if dont want 6 cylinder 2.8" So are you saying...

Lol, my Troll was slightly more refined than that! I hope the bastards who nicked it get piles.
