Petrol strikes back

[steve_earwig]

Ok, if you're paying the postage

[johnny406]

Petrol does strike back, the engines are alot more flexible, no turbos, high pressure fuel pumps, or injectors to go wrong £2300 for the fuel pump replacement on my Primera DCi! that was before bloody fitting too!

Shouldn't of got a diesel Steve, should of got it converted like me.

26 Town mpg on LPG
30 mpg on a run LPG

Going to get the 3.0 V6 soon, a D8 I hate electronics. GRRR..
Primera (2005)
Automatic Wipers come on when it's stopped raining
Handbrake On warning, even though it's bloody not
Reversing camera is full of condensation
Sat nav tells you the wrong exit, different to the correct information on the screen
Rev counter Dies, Fuel Guage says it's empty when it's full and Speedo flickers.
Just utter crap.
Japanese Reliability Spoilt by bloody French, it's gone now anyway long live my 1997 406!
£31.00! to fill my 80 litre tank to 63 litres 80%, If I drive carefully I can get 500 miles, if I thrash her down the A68 I get 402 miles out of tank

Bloody brillant.

Nicer soundtrack too!

Which part of the A68? I use the Corbridge northwards stretch on a daily basis. Nice straight roman roads, you can get some good speed on them, and some good jumps in places too.

and some good jumps in places too.

I've got visions of Daisy Duke now!

[steve_earwig]

Oooh, she's 55 now. Grab-a-granny anyone?

IIRC wasn't no oil painting way back when, anyways.

Oh, argh...., err......excuse me everyone.....won't be long.........

[Doggy]

Well, more specifically the boat race

[swiss]

The network censors believed that Daisy's famous cut-off shorts alone would be too revealing. (The shorts were so short, that the only way the producers could get them on air was for Catherine Bach to wear flesh tone tights with them, to ensure that the shorts didn't reveal more of her than intended). In spite of that, the official Daisy Duke poster reportedly outsold those featuring the era's other sex symbols, Farrah Fawcett and Raquel Welch.

Could a mod please change the thread title to 'Daisy Duke appreciation'

[Welly]

I now know why my Dad was so keen for us all to watch Dukes of Hazard of a Saturday tea time

I kinda remember Daisy but it was probably 'pre-interested in girls' time for me so I must have put her semi-nakedness down to them 'crazy americans' and left it at that.

Are there any, err, 'better' pics of our Daisy?

*fast forward 25 years*

Oh gees............

[johnny406]

Actually on the A68 when I do go it's around Corbridge and then along the miltary roads, I know what you mean about the jumps, I got air off one about 75, no wonder my sills have the plastic peeling off them and are dented
