There's one parked around the corner from my old place which sometimes had number plates and other times not. Took me a little while to work out that the owner takes the plates off it when they're not planning on driving it for a few days!Originally posted by Rdyno View PostDon't know if it has been mentioned the beetle remake my old mate's (he's a fuckstain) brother got a award for selling the most of them in the country now I never see them.

Can rebuild the battery packs in them if you want. The WDS will eventually stop working if the battery dies completely.Jaguar XJR, Freelander 2 HSE, Jaguar XKR, MINI Cooper S

And their batteries are all fucked by now. I rebuilt the pack in one a few years back, replaced the D Cell style batteries with a pack and a half of the modern Prius prismatics (Circa 20% of the cells were bad - rebuilding the pack sounds easier than it was - between the cost of the cells and the labour, it would be a 2 or 3 grand job). Apparently it's still working really well. Diagnostics on them is fun - either a Japanese language specialist diagnostics tool, or russian language pc tool... lol.Originally posted by Mr Flibberty Gibbets View PostFirst gen Prius was a SEVS import. We didn't get the Prius in full volume until gen 2."Where can we get hold of a Vincent Black Shadow?" "Whats that?" "A fantastic bike," I said.

The never sold fuckall C6s to start with.Originally posted by HARD CUNT View PostI reckon there are less Citroen C6s around than Alfa 166's

Alfa 166s are all gone because the trans controller lives under the heater core - heater core splits, floods and kills tcu. New trans controller costs a fortune, no second handies exist because they all do it."Where can we get hold of a Vincent Black Shadow?" "Whats that?" "A fantastic bike," I said.

That's because there never were many in the first place. I'd rather like to have a C6 so I keep an eye out for them both on the road and in classifieds.Originally posted by HARD CUNT View PostI reckon there are less Citroen C6s around than Alfa 166's
