Hi

My car was due at the dealers for a recall today. They even checked whether I was still going yesterday. Drove the 30+ miles this morning to be told the recall is now no longer applicable to my car, they'd only been notified this morning.

Half days holiday wasted.

Cheers

Paul

I was amazed at how far folk had travelled to be there, like from Indonesia!!

P.S. No animals/mammals/birds were hurt in the making of this gig

I note that ELO bow out next weekend also, another excellent son of Birmingham.

Serves 'em right. If I recall they gave you the wrong car anyway

Took my Qashqai into the dealer this morning to have the camera/radar system replaced as there is a random fault causing the Emergency Lane Assist warning to come on. I pay for a courtesy car but why, oh why, do they give you a car with the low fuel warning light already on? I was going to do a couple of errands today but, instead, I'll sit tight until they tell me my car is ready then I'll return theirs with even less fuel in it

Excellent, and quite amazing at the same time!

And I love the green DMU with reference to modernisation.

Thanks for posting!

I fail to see the porpoise of that question

Shunting horse in action:

(shunting horseboxes!).

Note that it's connected to the vehicles via a single chain and walks outside of the four-foot (i.e. not in-between the rails). This was if it stumbles it's less likely to get run over by the wagons being shunted.
