  1. Well no, as Mark said, by not signing one you could lose your benefits, by signing one you may or may not have work so you may or may not pay income tax/still require benefits on top to survive, it is complete horse shit whichever way you slice it.
  2. I was on benefits for quite a while while my old business wasn't making anything, ended up in one of those agencies that force people into work (despite not having time to do so, as I explained to them at excruciating length, not as bad as it sounds) and the kinds of jobs they were finding me were just so utterly retarded, not suitable in the slightest. My favourite was one where they wanted me to drive a team of 4 other people up and down the country to fit out shops, because I had a car, which I'd already explained only had 2 seats... Best of it is, when these people get people into work, no matter how unsuitable, or how few hours or how much worse off they are, they (the agency) get a substantial sum from the government for doing so. Having caught wind if how they operate I signed off and found my own part time job to fit around the business, they (my assigned twat of a job finder) then continued to chase me to ask if I'd got a job or not so they could claim their fee. I don't think I've ever given anyone such a round of f**ks in a letter before!
  3. WD40 has so little lubrication that I used to use it to fit grips on my bikes, seems like the most backwards thing to use but it does actually work a treat!
  4. Ok fast forward 6 months, Jardo has got himself a Leon on some kind of loan deal
  5. Apart from that Panda turd, which as I recall was the best car ever?
  6. Fast forward 6 months, Jardo buys a Seat Leon and raves about its looks and practicality thanks to having rear doors, making it the best car EVER!
  7. I hope you're going to do something about the roof before you bolt that to it?! Also massively illegal to be billing a card without consent, I'd be chasing that one up!
  8. How in the f*ck do you roll a car on a Go-kart track?!
  9. You've f**ked the passenger side aswell?! Jesus man! Just get a new roof!
  10. His bum fluff beard would back up his statement tbf.
  11. I think I just died inside a little looking at that picture, you massive spaz.
  12. Paisley freight are your guys for shit like that
  13. I didn't send my old photocard back because I wanted to keep it because I was 16 and pretty chavvy on it which always creates a bit of a giggle
  14. No, you fix rattles by ripping the heat shield off, like a boss! As for breaking down, you have a basic set of tools and usually that one slightly nutty mate who would drive across Europe to rescue you And in the worst case you pay through he arse for private recovery or the fee for joining and using the AA on the same day
  15. Blatantly in the wrong, Dann, you're never allowed to park in front of a dropped curb, especially somewhere like that I don't know why you'd think it was ok and then think you could ever contest it?!
  16. Stock brakes Nevertheless, if I was there I'd be all over that!
  17. So you say, but as brake fittings are essentially drilled out bolts, and these are undrilled... Not to split hairs or anything
  18. As for MC rubbing on belt, swap your front engine mount for 2 or 3 hockey pucks and a long bolt, won't be able to move that far then
  19. Only $875 to get back on the road... Could have been worse! A day or two sooner and we might have been here - Or here -
  20. You showed us that before, tut.
  21. In Australia/Hilux/camper news, bed is amongst the comfiest beds ever, just not a deal of headroom. And I'm stuck in a little place called Walpole in the south west while the car gets a new front crank oil seal and cambelt (may aswell while they're there) after it dropped all its oil on the car park of a very picturesque treetop walk place 20km away. f**king lucky given that we were about 250km from any proper town a couple of days ago! Braced for a meaty, meaty garage bill
  22. £1300 for any Peugeot* is not cheap *bar group B/replica stuff
  23. You have not. Anyway, introducing my new home - $2400 AUD (£1200ish), needs a linkage looking part for the steering and a new tyre, other than that it's on the road. For my next trick I shall make it a camper...
  24. You should go travelling man, expand your mind, get enlightened and realise you're making your car look shit. In actual car news, planning on looking at some today, kinda had my heart set on a Delica but they're so damn expensive!
