The Met have used a lot of Vauxhalls for years. I wonder who maintains their fleet?

[Ashberto]

[Berni]

Hope this helps. :thumbup:

[Classic Jorge]

[Berni]

Oh, you mean is she a copper? No. Good God, no!

You know how I feel about Babylon.

[Ashberto]

[Classic Jorge]

Which is remarkably lenient for purchasing a vauxhall, when you think about it

[Berni]

To be honest, though, it's her fault for not having any lights on her drive and for not having rear parking sensors. How is a chap supposed to park without sensors, ffs! What is this? 1895?

[Berni]

[Classic Jorge]

I'm in that difficult stage now where all my friends are getting divorced.

Fortunately, as we both feel marriage is pointless any uncoupling will be relatively spontaneous, if you will.

Mind you, she can cook a belting stew.

[Berni]

Tonight, for instance, I'm expected to go for drinks with her friends from work - some of whom I'll be meeting for the first time.

Meeting new people!! At my age!!! :-( What kind of f**ked up bull**** is that, ffs?

[Classic Jorge]

Mind you, it costs me a tenner to turn on the ignition but it's just on the right side of subtly classy, the drug dealer side.

[Berni]

Nipple clamps and such, is it?

grumpy, when in fact it's just that I do genuinely hate people. :shrug:

[Classic Jorge]

Completely by accident, you understand,

Black, 3L, 4wd, massive f**k off drug dealer wheels. I almost didnt take it back to the dealers I was so in love.

I couldnt see Home to Roost's John Thaw driving one tbh, even if death wasnt a pretty big barrier

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I'm off to buy two new cars tomorrow morning, one for the liddle lady and one a f**k off great big 4 x 4. As yet I have no decisions made regarding make or model, but by tomorrow evening both will have been ordered :cloud9:

I love buying cars.

[Berni]

God it must be great to be bored. I'd kill for a bit of boredom :cloud9:

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

She wants something sporty this time :rolleyes:

[Berni]

Get her one of those Nissan Micra convertibles. They're hilarious.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

MX5 perhaps. Or Alfa Giullietta.

[Classic Jorge]

My other half was so unimpressed that she went out and bought a retaliatory Mazda MX5, ditching her 'proper girls car' of a clio in the process.

Any early steer (geddit!) on the vdlmobile?

[Classic Jorge]

[Frimmers]

glwtpimo.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

MX5 is a possibility. Maybe the new Giullietta. We'll see how she feels when she drives them.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It should start for the first 3,000 miles. Then some other mug can deal with it.

[Frimmers]

It's like a Mondeo, but not as good.

wd Jaguar.

:-|

[Frimmers]

Don't think I ever been in an Alfa that didn't have at least one warning light on.

[Classic Jorge]

We had an Alfa on holiday this year, it failed to start atop a mountain so we had to roll it down in neutral and ended up with a Merc.

Mind you, if it was the old model it'd be no competition. :love:

I've been rather impressed.

[Classic Jorge]

Sorry, I'll get me coat

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I can't work out where the bloody place is, actually. Off a roundabout on the A23 just north of the town centre, I think.

[Frimmers]

It's just that that isn't saying a lot.

[Berni]

You could knacker your spine doing that.

[PSRB]

[PSRB]

into the wife's car.....£300 to fix both :-(

[Berni]

There be dragons. I should know. I was born there. :-(

Welling United were playing at home, so the traffic was fun.

I spent about half an hour in there and not a single salesman approached me. I sat in the Giulietta and read the brochures for a bit and then decided they must have made enough sales that quarter and didn't need me.

[PSRB]

whereas I leave it on full lock, so I just reversed and expected to miss her car as would have been the case if left on full lock :-(

She likes to remind me frequently of this incident
