I'm not sure I understand why driving an old car is a problem if you're older?

How about a car the same age as you?

And road noise is easily eliminated with a days diy and some butyl material

Old guy in an old car is you don't want to look past your sell-by date
But a classic is a classic

Old guy in a new car is a worse look IMHO

All very well for you married and partnered up folks. I'm still out here in the trenches, drafting in the very late rounds.

I have found not having a car to be no impediment when it comes to my love life.

 

[magicbastarder]

no impediment can mean 'no effect'

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

no impediment can mean 'no effect'

Eh?

 

[magicbastarder]

was just a badly worded joke. as in, if it had no effect on your love life, you could claim it had no impediment.

Ah gotcha. It’s funny when you explain it, like all the best jokes!

I get where you're coming from totally

I'm neither of those things

Like either your gonna end up with someone who's gonna be like 'the j70 was the last good landcruiser' or your gonna end up with somone who's gonna be like 'it's yellow'.
If I was your car picking personal assistant i'd probably be looking at some audi from few years ago. Looks acceptable in any driveway, doesn't cost a fortune, is nice for long hauls kinda thing. But that's my mentality of trying to pick largely invisible cars. If you already have a van I'd probably be leaning more towards something sorta interesting.

I got it after i googled it

We've had a leak in the kitchen roof for 6+ years now. Landlady won't fix it because 'there's asbestos in the roof'. During heavy rain it's a constant drip, we just stick a pot under it.

I remember watching this aged 11 and being really confused.
multistory car parks were almost unknown in Ireland then so they looked really futuristic on TV.
the you tube comments say they got the car cheap after a dead body was found in the trunk and the smell wouldn't go away so they thought they'd trash the car on screen??!
from memory - I think Maddy went off and he didn't know where he stood or something? Also after he got out of the wrecked car. He met a guy and just started talking to him like nothing had happened,

We should have a poll:
Enya
Or
EnNo

Brian EnNo.

I am giving Enya a go now - better 35 years late than never.

Wasn't sure where to post this and I know I need to be careful as fuck with my words but

I am working with someone in Israel who I'm kind of depending on to do some shit so I can do my job. I was asking them questions this morning and basically just got rebuked because 'they are dealing with a war situation'.

Now what happened at the weekend was horrible. And what that state is doing to people of a different persuasion, is also horrible. Its all fucking horrible.

But I'm kind of taken aback by that message. Meanwhile I have a meeting with a lad in Kiev shortly to discuss stuff, as I do on a regular basis.
