Yes, a real shame jasper can't make it.
Just a polite reminder, since Dai's away, he has entrusted me with the sacred duty of flogging the 406oc stickers at Gaydon - (in fact, I've already sold one to some geezer with a moonstone blue estate).
Anyway, raid yer piggy banks, they're on special offer tomorrow!

2 or 3 years back, my boss bought a 40ft american motorhome - size of a coach, and I was told it was the same chassis as the american fire trucksDiscoPol wrote:you are talking to man who used to own a 4 and a half litre v8, thats not even a half tank in that old beastymjb wrote:I'll bring along my £103.13 petrol receipt from the last fill if anybody's not seen one before...
anyway it had a 8.5 litre engine, and I had to drive it back from kent
We went in toddington services and put £50 in and the gauge never moved
I remember the LPG tank was 300 litres, but can't remember the capacity of the fuel tank but it was considerably bigger
I do remember if it was filled with gas, diesel, and water it added over a ton in weight

<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Girlies? Don't think there'll be any mate, so don't be getting your hopes up for any saucy pics. Chances are the only t*ts you'll be able to see in any pics will be ours!puggy wrote:Well chaps , i,ve left it to the last minute to post as i have not been too well

While the dogmobile returns respectable fuel consumption figures, the same unfortunately, does not always apply to the pilot.
