Whoo more snow! ☺

......... yes, I expect they are built to a higher standard, a higher spec car built for enthusiasts, standard cars built for the masses.

I have only driven a Magane & Clio, basic cars I suppose, built to a price. The Magane was OK ish, but the off set pedals of the Clio made my back ache. I use to occasionally chauffeur my boss around in his Mercedes S500......which made the Dacia feel like a skateboard, and about as fast.

Mine does have a key along with a fob, but the key only opens a cubby hole to gain access to the emergency seat opening cable.....if the battery goes totally flat I cannot unlock the electric steering lock..

I vowed never to have another Renault.......but what is the Dacia?.........a Renault.

The Megane went straight to the scrappers when I had finished with it, what could go wrong with it did. Dacia been OK so far, but you don't have high expectations of a car that so cheap in the 1st place.

And will he be singing....The Green Green Grass of Home.

I had a Renault Magane ()a few years ago, that had the credit card thing that was pushed in the dash slot.......it worked quite well, until I sat down with it in my back pocket...........and snapped it almost in half. The rest of the car was a disaster.......if that car was a horse I would have shot it.

No key on my scoot, seat opens via a button, steering lock and petrol cap work off of a rotary nob which cannot be turned without the fob being close to the scoot. I just put the fob on the inside pocket of my jacket and zip it shut.

That will mean Puddles! which makes this bit of snow seem insignificant.

Can't go out today, we are snowed in!

Amazing what ideas they come up with..................to fleece the motorists.

Yum Yum!.

Only 2c here, just a grey sky...... Fingers crossed that we don't get any snow......Want granddaughters CBT to go ahead tomorrow.

Feel left out, we ain't got any.............................yet

Correct CST manufacture them.

No white stuff here yet, bet it arrives tomorrow so granddaughters CBT will be cancelled.

Na...Bridgestone.. CST...decent tyres.

The rear tyre on the Suzuki GT550 looked almost square fresh off the showroom floor.

I can remember the 1st time I fitted TT100,s to a bike, the grip they had even at standstill, made turning the bars seem much harder to do, I checked them several times as I thought the pressures were low causing the heavy steering. Nope just more grippier.

Jeez the memories of Bridgestones and Yokohama tyres.. It was like dancing on ice using them in the wet, not much better in the dry.

The southern sections may be reasonably OK, but up our end between Mansfield and Derby it is not fit for purpose, at peak times it is gridlocked (almost) and still bad in off peak times too......too many traffic controlled crossroads and junctions like the entrance and exit to the M1. Getting through Derby is a pain in the harris too.

We have the pleasure of living at the other end of the A38.....I avoid it when possible.

Repair the toilet.....or will you be going through the motions

I recently did my 3rd test.. ...doctor!.....been trying to get a appointment with my doctor for just over 3 weeks.
