Handbrakes have a whole new use

 

i was in my mate's big 4 wheel drive thing (no idea what it was) a couple of winters ago. we were egging him on to get the back end out. he did it and cracked the kerb. my neck killed for a week after. no damage to't car though!

Don't leave the car ticking over to de-ice it and go back into the house......

Lots of people lose their cars this way every year despite being warned :'(

Indeed they do, my Sister in Law had her 4x4 stolen off the drive last winter and the insurance company have refused to pay out, despite much fighting, on the wall of their factory unit are 2 doors, the only parts recovered from the theft.....Be warned, as it was something i did all the time.......

I keep all sorts of useful stuff in my cavernous boot, like shovel, blanket, water, coolant, food, maps, jump leads, cones, toolkit, tow rope, hi vis, spare bulbs, fuses, inspection light, first aid kit, compressor, tyre repair kit, fire extinguisher, soap, toothbrush, spare clothes, etc etc Just in case i get lost on my way back from the shops


Oh and salt, I forgot about that, oh and a triangle, and other stuff, oh yeah, a paper clip, a list of fault codes, and the elite seat winding tool, and a gold sovereign...no not really

Am I joking? I don't know what jocular means  No! I have every faith in Vauxhalls joint finest, despite the ridicule of our beloved cars from ignorant baffoons who don't love them. But prior planning and preperation prevents piss poor performance! Also, it could help get someone else shifted who is in my way, and I could go anywhere ate anytime so it pays to have all this and not have to waste time loading up.
