Why have you been off then? thats how you spend so much time on here then:hm:

Torn ligament in my ankle mate. After months of wrong treatment then more months of just nothing I was finally referd to a proper specialist and then some proper physio so now I'm pretty much fixed

Gonna be hard to get back into doing some proper manual work again. Told work I need to be broken back in gently

No I know went home early no frikkin workCan't get the time off work because we're so busy:hm:and then they flood the place with agency drivers

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

Nice one Tom I would have swapped and made one good un out of the 2 you could have had:razz:

 

[B6lee]

Mmm, Evo 6 for 5k I'd be suspicious anyway.

Why you need to sell your car so quick if you are also thinking swap for another Evo then Tom ?

Surly your better off sticking to the car you got then swapping it for a rattly 6 :wtf:

Bet they got paid more than you too, I'd have been savage :hm:

 

[Evo4TomB]

Just went to see that 1 as it was interesting to see what sort of car it was gonna be

Looked fine just mechanically it was a dog

Need to sell really but if I can free up some cash elsewhere I might just keep this 1 as it's pretty mint for it's age

And with the baby coming in January bit more cash in the bank would make it easier

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

Yep they do on the weekendsI went home early 3 times last week but hey ho I do 7 hours and get paid 9 hours

Mmm, difficult time of year too. You had anyone out to view yours yet ?

Well you can't grumble to much then. Ere if you got sent home early that night then you should have hopped in your Evo and joined us

I would have but it's sorn now as I thought I was working I took it off the road:sad:

Mmm not worth getting caught cos dvla will sting you, mate of mine just learnt the hard way. Bought a VW van parked it on what he though was private property outside his unit. Dvla clamped it cos no tax and he didn't realise he had to re sorn it when he bought it. He was ordered to pay almost £700 in back tax and fine so told them they could come take it away instead cos he only paid £600 for it. Lesson learnt the hard way with that one

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

Yeah I know this sorn thing is a right ole pain but it will be bak on the road when it's a bit warmer. It's still insured and mot'd just needs the tax but it's 400+ a year

400 a year :disgusted: and what do you get for that which I don't get for my £210 a year :razz:

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

I get to drive around with a shiny engine bay:whistling:

 

[B6lee]

I get to drive around with a shiny engine bay:whistling:

My bay is lucky to look like it does cos somebody wax oiled the whole bay at some point. It's gone now but there are traces here and there.

So as my car is more powerfull than yours and probably dumps more pollution than yours I still have to pay less road tax, wrong ain't it !!

The £400 a year tax should be left to the proper big engine stuff not a 2.0 Jap car

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

Yeah I know mate just winding you up about the shiny bay. I can't for the life of me understand how I pay twice as much for the same fq equivelent, it's just wrong when I dump out the same emmisions

I thought it was any Evo post 2006 that was being caught for it. I've seen Evo vii which was put on an X reg but cos it was import registered after march 06 it had to pay the 400 then my mate bought his Evo 5 which was imported 2008 and it's on PLG same as me and my last Evo so 210 a year.

Reckon they made it up as they went along

Yeah 3 lads and a lady have been out but the lads were test pilots that's didn't drive but asked too on a few occasions with a blunt NO

The women was nice tho seemed to know alot about them askin all the right questions and stuff came fully insured on the day to so allowed her to drive and she really liked it said that she would be back I'm contact after Xmas isle she was interested
