    **Unofficial Tyre Thread**

    thanks for the help, it was unclear from the two sets of numbers which was the correct code to use. also the tyres look filthy from being loose in a van which made me apprehensive about the date. i got them for 59 each and i use a decent tyre place that charge 12 each for fitting and balancing...

    Oktoberfest accommodation

    We hired a campervan and drove there. it took about 12 hour's but it was good fun with people able to play cards and drink in the back. it was definately cheaper than flying and hotels at the time. We then stayed at a campsite on the outskirts of munich, it was very good with toilets, showers...

    Spec me a CCTV System

    My partner went to her car yesterday on our driveway as the alarm went off and she saw a man running away. She was alone with our new baby and as such I now want to get a security camera. Is there such a thing as a camera that will work wirelessly (wired power is Ok) and also send me...

    Coral of the story? Don't eBay drunk!

    I really like the phaeton as they were anonymous as most people won't know what they were but were built very well. I am partial to an old barge but the bork level on them is too high for my liking (and I have a old S class!), good luck and I am looking forward to following this thread. There...

    Reasonable use

    Thank you for the replies. The model is U88-AMM-Be I bought it from tesco as the Dyson decided to die mid clean up when decorating when I moved into my new home. I had to go to Tesco as it was the only shop open at 10pm. The filter kit states it needs a type 96 which I can't find. I am not...

    Reasonable use

    Afternoon, Around 12 months ago i purchased a vax upright vacuum cleaner from tesco. It uses fitters on both the motor and the main tank. It no longer sucks due to the filter being full so i figured id order some new filters again to fix. Turns out that they no longer make this filter type...

Got it as bored uncomfortable mx5. In trouble though as I forgot to say to the Mrs I was going to get...
