  2. changed the dash today, got everything undone bar the two bolts in the front scuttle. pulls the bonnet release ... and nothing happened could not open the bonnet, could hear a noise in the middle of the front wing but no way was the bonnet opening...had to rip of the grill and cut a plastic guard in front of the catch and remove the 2 bolts holding the catch to the bonnet and the stay that stops it moving forward to release it, not a fun job and not in the middle of an involved job either. turns out that my bonnet cable is in 2 pieces that join in a plastic shroud this had come open and the ca

  10. A couple decide to go for a meal on their anniversary and after some deliberation decide on their local Chinese restaurant. They peruse the menu and finally agree to share the chef's special chicken surprise. The waiter brings over the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot. Just as the wife is about to start in on the meal, the lid of the pot rises a tiny amount and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before the lid slams back down. Hey, did you see that?' she asks her husband. He hasn't so she asks him to look in the pot. He reaches for it and again the lid rises, and again
  11. There was this fellow who worked for the Post Office whose job it was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses. One day a letter came to his desk, addressed in a shaky handwriting to God. He thought, "Oh boy, better open this one and see what it's all about." So he opened it and read: Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had £50 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension check. Next Sunday is Easter, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food

    Subject: Alternative medicine A woman went to the doctor's office where she was seen by one of the young Nurse-practioners. After about 4 minutes in the examination room, she burst out screaming as she ran down the hall. A doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was and she told him her story. After listening, he had her sit down and relax in another room. The doctor marched down the hallway to the back where the nurse-practioner was writing on his clipboard. "What's the matter with you?" the doctor demanded. "Mrs. Terry is 63 years old, has four grown children and seven grandchi
  13. Air Traffic Control (maybe you would rather not know) ___________________________________________ Tower: "Delta 351, you have traffic at 10 o'clock, 6 miles." Delta 351: "Give us another hint! We have digital watches!" ========================================== TWA 2341, for noise abatement turn right 45 Degrees." "Center, we are at 35,000 feet. How much noise can we make up here?" "Sir, have you ever heard the noise a 747 makes when it hits a 727?" ========================================== From an unknown aircraft waiting in a very long takeoff queue: "I'm f...ing bored!"

  14. but do you have a dizzy ? . yes it will fit the golf, lots of guys are up for the swop. need door cards and console guys.
  15. yep i got obd1 as well, the orrible blue dash 1. just waitin for the weather then dash , carpets and trim gets binned.
  16. does anyone have the orrible blue dash (obd) and not have the dizzy, wondered whether the two were connected so it would be easy to tell what you are looking at. maybe the switch from blue to black corresponded to the coil pack intro. sorry if this is obvious or been covered, but may help the buyers guide compilation pete.

  18. A man is sitting in an airliner, which is about to takeoff when another man with a Labrador Retriever occupies the 2 empty seats eside him. The Lab is situated in the middle, and the first man is looking quizzically at the dog when the second man explains that they work for the airline. The airline rep said, "Don't mind Sniffer; he's a sniffing dog, the best there is; I'll show you once we get airborne when I put him to work." The plane takes off and levels out when the handler says to the first man, "Watch this." He tells the dog, "Sniffer, search." Sniffer jumps down, walks along the aisle,
  19. looks good but make sure you keep well away from kerbs , my 17s have a concrete magnet built in
  20. low mileage engine wear was due to a phenomenon called bore wash but to be honest new cars with fuel injection because they are more ac\curate dont do it like older cars with chokes, cars onchoke run rich and the exess fuel literally washed the oil from the bores low miles mean lots of short journeys so the car is on choke more often. see history lessons from a car site, if any of u had a mini bet u used a peg to keep the choke out till the car was warm.
  21. lovely wheels but not sure you will get away with the offset. lol.
