Is that Che Guevara?

Went to court to contest a parking ticket I got in Dun Laoghaire and won. Had to take the morning off work, wasn't heard til after 2pm and got another ticket for my trouble. All over a €40 fine. Pyrrhus would be proud of my principles. I'll be contesting the second one too. Downside is I don't...

I can vouch for this. Got a wheel for the Caddy for €30.

Me too. Any open garage says I'll be at the back of a long queue due to only having skeleton crew, but they won't be able to get the parts.

Fuel injection gone on my work van. Can't find a garage to fix it. If I do, they won't be able to get parts. Looking at throwing €500 at a rental just to stay mobile while business is down 80%.

Presume you still get a bus lane permit with all of the above?

2pm - puncture. Professional repair. €20. 6.30pm - puncture in the same tyre? Time for the spare. Spare rusted on. Had to break the bracket to get the spare off. 8pm - back to work. Think I've found the Caddy's weak spot - aluminium bracket and steel bolt prone to rust.

I keep my rearview mirror in the glove box - zero glare.

sold a van once, to a member of the hutch crew. it wasn't actually for sale, just parked up, but he made me an offer i couldn't refuse. a very low offer. just make sure you send in the log book, not entrust it to them.

I hit 50000kms for the year last friday.

oh right, i thought you meant sale price for the yaris.

200,000 miles on the clock? €800.

what kind? my caddy does c14km/litre (850km per 60 litre tank) and can do 160kph without a rattle. allegedly.

i've been driving without tax since january. talked my way through a checkpoint yesterday.

when they have electric vans that can do 880km on a single charge and be ready to go the morning after, i'll consider it.

try sheridan's. they're brokers in wexford and got me insurance when others wouldn't even return my calls.

looks like there's a ghost of and old sticker in your first photo - maybe it was removed...

i did the opposite. couldn't reassign the tag for a few weeks after buying because the seller dragged his heels with the paperwork, then i forgot about it. now i have 3 €40 late penalties even though i had a tag on the old car. like i'm made of money...
