Is that from a manual ? Bit too heavy for this old bloke, I'd throw that right out of the window if it is!!

Hot Bird!!

Agree JRA I remember when diesel was what we should all have and diesel was always cheap than petrol . Now we all have to love electric, where are all the old batteries going when they are knackered but by than we will have a new brunch of idiots cocking things up because they are all the same in it for themsevles if it was us running thinks like they do we'd be in clink. Years ago we had statemen running the country for the good of the country all we have now are career politicans, think I'm right in saying that Camron, Clegg and Miliband had never done anything (and there's more) else. The end deal is its our money the use they don't pay for anything.

Bazzer RN 1 I have no plans to enter any cities any time soon, I'll stay in 60's and 70's hahahahah

JRA your post sums up the way we are treated by our lords and masters, they seem to forget that they work for us (or should) instead it seems they can get away with any thing with no real recall and after 5, 10 or so years walk awalk without a care.

yep mine too, clean but a little on the edge and the girls come out on top !!

With all the doom and gloom that our lords and master are creating, what happen to Statemen (or women) that lead this country?? Hope you can have a laugh if this opens. Alan One for the girls!.mp4

It did seem odd to me, i could only think that those areas had a lower acceptances???? Likely misunderstood it, in short my old girl is dirty without a differant exhaust and engine. Alan

Interesting just checked my 18 year old CRV and seems I would have to pay £8 in Birmingham and Bristol but clear on all others, checked on the Goverment website. AS I live in Fenland and have no plans to venture into the drug and gang riddled cities I won't worry too much yet,,,,,,drugs and gangs ....we have plenty here as well. Alan

Hi LostLancastrin, I've been a member since July, think it's a great place for help and information for all things Honda and more. I'm a CRV 2005 owner best car I've had. Alan

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.” He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.” The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?” The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”

The Traffic lights, my parents bought them back from a hoilday in Spain or Italy I would have been around 20 ish had them fitted in a Hillman Minx Est, a friend who worked at a garage fitted wired them up.

Remember................ trips away and collecting those little flags that you stuck on the back windows to show where you had been ..... the waving hand (and nodding dog) that you had at the back window...... anyone have the traffic lights hanging in the back window - went red when you braked, amber when you had your foot off the brake but not moving and of course green when the accelerator......cost me £1.10/- to have wired in (£1.50p for you younger members!!) 6ft flexible aerials.....

Top Man, thanks Bazzer I'll have a look, I checked out Ebay and there was a good number to pick from that after putting my reg in came up, Will certainly print the fuse and relay list off.

At that price, as you say it's a worth ago. Here comes the dumb bit.....where do I find the A/C reley please.

Thanks Bazzer, did you get the relay checked at a garage or just went for it? Did you get your new Royal Black tyres fitted and if you did what do you think so far?

Rugs!!!!!! if only you could find a girl who wanted to share it😀😍 I just remember the horse drawn milk cart...... they knew every stop on the round Postmen on bikes in red suilts....... Red Barrel and Double Diamond........ Shops closed for a half day every week, closed every day at 6pm none open on a Sunday apart from paper shops, .... and not a supermarket in sight. And your were served at the pumps!!!!

Fina was another. Is Duckhams oil still about? Remember the Tiger tails you had hanging out the filler cap - Esso puts a tiger in your tank!! - before that something similar to smurfs promoting 'happy motoring' Shell with the half of a money note - 10/- or £1 that you had to match up Green shield stamps - 30 fold!! save them books...... and what about the go fast pinline that you stuck on your car..... Never drove your car without your coton backed driving gloves and sunglasses on...... and your name and your girlfriends acrossed the top of the windscreen,,,,,,

Thanks for the advice b4u2 I'll get it done the dogs will certainly be pleased I'm sure

See the fuel prices are on the up again, same every year at hoilday time the prices always go up. Many years ago I managered a service station (Chevron Oil Co) !!! and the prices were always increased at those times because people are normally going out and about more. Remember - Texaco, Regent, Total, anymore??????

Took my CRV for a re gas to be told it needed the conpresser replaced at a cost of around £270 fitted, to be honest it's the first car I've had with air con, it's always beed open the windows in the past. Do you think that a fair price, and is it really worth worrying about I don't do loads of miles now...any views on air con please

Always thought this sumed up things very well when it first appeared.... Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; Why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realise that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason. He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights I Want It Now Someone Else Is To Blame I'm A Victim Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

Thanks Bazzer RN 1, just the standard or the best diesel for the Merc?

What's the opinion on the fuel we use, Supermarket or a brand, standard or the super stuff?????

Thanks Bazzer, I got some off Amazon, and as you say lot cheaper than Honda, 4 for the price of 1!!
