Re: Why are interviewers so rude?
Firstly congrats on the good news and offer to your wife. Secondly, risks sometimes have to be taken though I do hope the offer isn't a conditional offer and has been received in writing at least? Either way, my current job (14 years, 2 promotions on) was born out of being utterly fed up, and taking...

Re: 1994 Cavalier LSi C20NE (was C18NZ) Work-horse
Measure thrice, drill once. I didnt get mine lined up perfectly and it caused a slight twist on the bonnet. It is great for servicing, but they can get in the way if you need to do anything timing / auxiliary belt wise.
But yeah, dooo it.

Re: Insurance
Last renewal (Oct2023) it was up by about £17 on the Yaris. It's somewhat frustrating. But not as bad as some of you guys!

Re: My VERY RUSTY VW T25 Camper Van Project
For me, it would be crimp and a drop of solder with liquid 'heatshrink' painted over anything that doesn't need to be left exposed. but otherwise it looks much better than the first picture.

Re: My VERY RUSTY VW T25 Camper Van Project
Do it now, whilst its fresh in your head and before you get other things fitted. That would be my thoughts. It's then ticked off, and removes any doubts about connections later if something goes finicky, or just don't work as expected later down the line. You owe it to yourself to make sure you're h...

Re: The Wife's Vectra-C - The other battle wagon
It's one of those things, but yeah at the time of inspection it was fine. Cars are meant to be used at the end of the day.
Glad you're relieved its back and hopefully the rental can go back ASAP if it hasn't already.

Re: The Wife's Vectra-C - The other battle wagon
All good, though in fairness you've been nursing that clutch for a good number of years now, so it's all swings and roundabouts there. Thing is, a cosmetically good example and a mechanically good example are probably not going to be the same vehicle. I did some ebay hunting the other night and yes ...

Aye, It's a weird one, only time I see Vectra B's now is at shows, and the odd one here and there, Vectra C's have gone much the same way. Nipping to the scrap yard is harder and harder these days I have 3 in short distance, but usually end up going to the likes of UPullIt (180 mile round trip, so h...

Re: The Wife's Vectra-C - The other battle wagon
Kool, hopefully if they are salvagable you can recoup some of the costs flogging them on Rob - or tarting up for spares (though I doubt you'll need to do them again in the Vectras life time?
Fingers crossed the MOT is sorted and costs don't ramp up too much with the car hire.

Re: 1994 Cavalier LSi C20NE (was C18NZ) Work-horse
Nice list there. Alot of that is more than doable with your capable hands in the run up to mot prep too. Regardless of which headlight setup you go with Rob, relaying the lights so they have a better power feed will pay dividends in turns out light output so thats a must :) Look forward to seeing so...
