    Other Hobbies - Shooting (Viewer Discretion Advised)

    Browning Xbolt Hunter Eclipse (laminate thumbhole stock) in .308 and a Winchester o/u 12ga here, mainly used for game shooting. Regular range practice as well. Apart from foxes and flying vermin, everything I shoot is for the pot. No problems with feathers here :) Differences between countries...

    Opinions Please

    After 15 years of driving Skoda, Seat and Volkswagen (>25k miles / year, company cars), never had any problem with brakes, discs or sliders. Even though plenty potential for corrosion here, with all the salt on the roads. Would they be using different parts for the UK market?

    Vote or self-destruct. In the latter case I'd rather fancy seeing a little video posted here ;)

    The New old Mini by David Brown !

    Even at double that price it would still sell - look at the prices Jaguar can ask for the "new old" E-types.

    What Tyres do I fit 225/45 R17 91W ?

    Currently our car (Seat Leon ST, 225/40 R18 92Y) is on Bridgestone Potenza. No complaints, but once they are worn out they'll be replaced with Pirelli P Zero or Continental Sportcontact. Current winter tyres are Toyo Snowprox S954; there again next time I'll order Continental Wintercontact. We...

    What's Everyone Upto?

    Bump stop

    Yes, Febest, about the cheapest I found. It will take about a week for them to arrive (it did in Belgium), coming from Estonia if I'm not mistaken. I was quoted 100€ (£127) apiece for the genuine Nissan article, from the dealership here...

    What do you think of your car??

    Love driving my T2, although she is starting to show her age (1997, about to reach 200K miles). Performance and brakes are rubbish, no comfort at all, but then I'm spoiled with the daily driver. That is a Seat Leon ST FR, with the 2.0 TDI. Sports suspension, nice wheels, fully equipped incl...

    New exhaust time

    Got mail back today, in answer to the pictures I sent: center section incl gasket and tail pipe will be replaced under warranty. I only pay the shipping (mind you, I'm not in the UK, so shipping to UK might be covered, I don't know). All in all, very happy with the outcome.

    Urgent request for info on fuel lines

    rr - just spent the afternoon under the car, and now I read this :o Can it wait until tomorrow? Otherwise I have to do the car ballet again, and probably lose my parking place in front of the house :)

    Bourneville's treat time.. not quite a Ferret!

    Great story, keep them coming! I recognise the "who's training who" scenario from our dogs. I sometimes think they, especially the male, do things wrong in order to be rewarded with attention (training) and maybe a treat once they do it right...

    New exhaust time

    Never had an issue with them before, even got the club discount refunded with my last order - when I had forgotten to mention it! I agreed on the phone to send them some pictures of the exhaust, we'll see what the outcome is. Local suppliers are at least double the price unfortunately.

    New exhaust time

    Just replaced the unijoints on the rear propshaft, and had a good look at my exhaust (see above in this thread, ordered June 2015 as full SWB kit from Milner's). Downpipe is OK, bit of surface rust. End pipe is rather rusty, but good for another year I think. Mid section is almost corroded away...

    Pregnancy starter kit

    What's in the box? A tube of Tummy Rub Butter and a jar of Pregnancy Boob Tube. And I'm not making this up!

    few muddy pics

    Yes - know the feeling, we have the same kind of mud here I think. I've known tractors to get stuck here. These days sugar beets are harvested by tracked vehicles...

    Clean-Air sticker - France

    Mind you, the same applies for large cities in Germany, and since last month for 2 cities in Belgium (Antwerp and Ghent).

    Disappointed in MPG in the Skoda

    The mileage you get is not abnormally low, especially since you don't do a lot of motorways. And, small engine, 3 cylinders if I'm not mistaken, not a lot of power so you have to use all of it more of the time. Check here, German website where consumers enter their mileage. Your mileage, 38...
