Have asked the Boss to upgrade the rest of the lights to LED :) the difference I found I they are at least 3 times brighter and really light the road and ditches up well compared to the ordinary 1s :)

My street this morning fs, just picked up an accident from literally down the street a few 100 yards and had to come back uphill as opposed to sliding downhill like the car on the back did. Ot was down a slight hill to get it and the truck just wanted to slide so I hada get the shovel out and half empty the grit bin in the street to get back up fslol fun days

That's a Black Edition AMG and a Ferrari "not an suv" Pursange :) V8 or V12 take your pick
I'd take the Ferrari, some smaller 20 inch wheels and lowered to fuck :)

Was the weapon of choice today, Bosses choice lmfao as my Truck was the other end of the country from 8 this morning, it was being used when I was lay up all last week.
Taller and longer body than mine by about 3 Metres. Comfy wagon but fucking manual gearbox :( and not enough room inside for my liking, having the crew cab I've loads more visibility pulling out of junctions etc, and a changing room/sleeping area :)

The custom Lego truck has arrived and I'm very impressed with how it turned out :) this 1 is for the Mate that trained me and there is another 1 for the office, I have another 1 coming for my dashboard in the truck with a slight difference

Picked the Cayenne turbo up from the bodyshop, not even 2k and someone had a whoopsie. Hybrid too and has full electric mode, I don't see the point in these ? They handle Luke a bag of dicks after an Ann summers party because of the weight lol, they can move in a straight line tho no question there.

The Taycan tho just gives me a hard on everytime I see 1, electric yeah I know but just look at it, If I was forced into having an electric car this very 1 would be it. It was on display and I never moved it, last load today was another Cayenne turbo, proper V6 with no electric wizardry lol, some note from it

Bit of a rare 1 these days now, proper 16V, these where rocketships back in the day and came with mpg etc displays, very advanced for the 80s.
Owner said its solid but been lying a while. All 4 wheels brakes seized solid but managed to free them a bit winching it up and down the bed and some Sledgehammer action to the rear wheels.
Shitshow getting it off as they where seized by time I got to owners home fslol
Halfway off and that's as far as it was going, handbrake on and bed in 3 foot, handbrake off and footbrake on and bed back out 3 foot essentially pushing it of the bed :)
Marked the driveway but customer signed the damage yer driveway mate form but that was only way it was coming off.

Love a good tight 1, once you get the tip in the rest follows, and it was plenty moist today :)
Big posh house in Hollywood, Toyota CH-R Hybrid wouldn't open or do anything else. Secret key blade in the remote wouldn't open it either and that's the 1st I've seen that not happen.
Slippy Jimed on and off to Toyota Dundonald and they couldn't open it, they decided to break into damage free but they didn't have the right tools so as they have been so good to Me over the years with Parts I got my "stuff' out and had it opened in under a minute :)
Bonnet up and the 12V battery had shit itself.

The only good Hybrid is a CT26
