This has been an excellent thread. Very informative and, latterly, a good debate. :D Backs up a lot of what I've heard from a close friend who is a surveyor. The RICS article was very good. Konrad, you just hovered over this fiery debate and then emptied your watering can over it to end...

I think this is a tall tale. Car's have rev limiters and I cannot believe, unless she was deaf and a complete ****** that she drove 100 miles in first gear.

Some modern steroes have a setting that makes the volume get louder and softer based on the vehicle's speed. Whether it's this or not, it sounds like your stereo's had it. Luckily, Rover use normal DIN-sixed units so replacing it will be easy ! :D

Interesting theory, but actually, in the current climate of pensions crisis fever, there aren't enough young people being born to pay NI conts to pay for our future old age pensions. The problem is also that the wrong people are having the babies that are being born today :roll:

The order for 500 suspension uprights may be delayed... :lol:

Not having any friends or relatives with x-ray vision I was wondering if anyone had a technical or handy tip for this. I suppose I can ask my wife to look from the side while I look from the top.

Go for the Seat with the 130TDi engine. VW/Audi quality and parts, cheaper and that engine is amazing.

Agreed, they even tried to be trendy with the Cossack version :lol: But I remember it trouncing a Range Rover on some car prog years back. I'd be a bit worried about spares though. Do Lada have any UK dealers any more ?

Where did the Chevvy Matiz come ? :lol:

Hello, I will be using a long drill bit to go through a wall to the outside. The depth is about 6-8". Any tips on how to make sure I am making a level hole ? Thanks :)

Thanks ! I've had a chat with the hire shop and I'm going to use a long drill to make four holes all the way through for my square. Then use the angle grinder to get the middle section "templated". I'll them probably use the angle grinder some more and the hammer and floor board remover...

This is a great post as I am going to have to do this. If I can hire a hole saw drillbit I will, but what is the best "implement" to use to chisel/chip away the edges to make the hole neat so the box section can slide in and through nicely ? I appreceiate I used the word chisel, but that was...

I've done a search and all the cat flap-related queries are to do with UPVC doors with two panels. What about the older aluminium/metal doors. Is it possible to remove the lower section of glass and cut a hole in it or replace it with a different material ? Thanks :)

Economic Left/Right: -3.88 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.54 Somewhere in between Nelson Mandela and Ghandi. I think it shows most of us are caring and have good intentions at heart. It also shows that we place great value on having a structured leadership that is open to...

I am not a muslim. I used to be a regular Church of England goer. All this anti-islam stuff is terribly "today". Don't get caught on the bandwagon the extremists want you to jump onto. For those who so fervantly hate islam, did they feel they same way about catholicism (or all catholics)...

I've used this site twice with success... :) http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/info/multiregion/

OK, cheers for the info.

While not as bad as this, I have been told by my parents that, as a helpful 3 yr old, I disappeared for about 30 minutes. On returning to my mum in our house, I informed her I has cleaned her shoes. My mum was very interested, probably followed by something else when she saw I had used my...

I have used Path Clear before to clear larger areas of foliage. Make sure you buy a watering car especially for the job as you don;t want your normal one lined with poison for ever ! You'll use about 100 bottles of round up if you want to do the job properly. On another matter, your sig is...
