Ye’, just saying while the majority are staying low (slowly getting more expensive as the U.S. is able to import more now) but that under five year old ones are getting more and more expensive. 

Lol. Just looked at new Camaros on Autotrader, more like £40,000 with one I think called a ZL1 for just short of £74,000.

If there is structural corrosion it’s usually down to ‘advisories’ being ignored at previous MOTs because as you say, it’s not worth it against the value of the car. 

They didn’t sell many over here mainly due to the high price Vauxhall wanted and add to that the tax and fuel costs, plus Vauxhall only sold them from certain dealerships, not all of them so they kept quite a bit of there price artificially. 

The price of certain Defenders, certainly ones in the last three years of manufacture. A guy I know bought a one year old Defender 90 for just over £25,000, sold it a few months later to a guy who kept on at him for it for £8,000 profit. If it’s a limited edition you can pretty much name your price. 

My phone randomly decides to change words for me. Grrrr.

The U.K. car market is quite a fast market with people wanting newer, cheaper to run and better features all the time. Older cars start costing more to maintain, often less economical and generally just not so much desirable. Some cars (vans and minibuses especially) go to Cyprus or Malta (the taxes for buying a…

It’s not so much condemned but not allowed to be driven on the public highway until it is fixed.

The Volvos these days confuse me, they look very similar.

It’s a V90 T5. It’s a 2.0 Diesel

For those that can’t fly, have an Elba fix.

NSFW video due to foul language.

David Mitchell said it perfectly on BBC’s Qi.

I remember the Volvo 850 well. Our county police had Volvo 850 T5s for motorway patrol, etc...

It’s more the clothing that I wouldn’t wear for work or use for work.

It’s usually clothing that I don’t need for work that I find hard to justify.

To tour the whole U.K. it was divided up a little.

The Weeping Window and Wave are part of the original Tower of London display from last year of the Blood Swept Land and Seas of Red that is touring the U.K. Each poppy represents a British and colonial life lost in conflict.

I'm okay with doing it for someone else. An ex-colleague last month took her husband and four young daughters to Euro Disney in France, they needed some travel essentials (ie breathalyser, breakdown triangle, hi-vis vests, etc...) and I'm always concerned about safety and bought a comprehensive first aid kit, and…
