Grr Bloody Cars!!

My cars been off the road for the last couple of months as i couldn't afford to tax it. Spent all afternoon sorting out tax, insurance etc, borrowed a jump pack off my mate to start it up, got it started, pulled off the drive to take it for a spin and it died in the middle of the road the battery won't hold its charge.
So I pushed it back on to the drive, ran down to halfords to get a battery at 7pm in the p**sing rain only to find they wanted £70 for a little batttery for a saxo!!!! (after spending most of my wages on tax and insurance I couldn't afford that) Now I'm really fed up, I was so looking forward to going out or a drive tonight. When did everything get so expensive??? I remember when batteries were only about £25!!

grrrr what a nightmare, yea everything is getting out of control they saying bread and milk going triple in 2/3 years ~

I can't afford to drive! Waaay to expensive

i just dont need to drive, my dad, sister, my sister oh and my mates can drive just phone call away for getting a lift lmaoi

Grrrr! cars are my nightmare at the moment too

I was gonna say Dizzy but shhhh (don't mention cars to Lisa lol) x

I'm going to start driving lessons but maybe I shouldnt bother!

what is it these days you have to do like 100 lessons or so before paying for a test and then paying for a car, tax, insures and pertol the list goes on when all that money can be sitting in your bank.

I was gonna do a week long intensive course for £350. But then I still have buy a car and tax, MOT and insure it. Its gonna cost a bomb but it'll make my life so much easier.

where i live i'm pretty lucky we only like 5 mins away from the town centre & the gov just allow us to build tram to the town, if i need to get some big moving around i just get my dad or my uncle to move ti for me.

sorry Dizzy_staff for hijecking your topic i will shut up now

Thats ok Steve no worries
I just needed to let off some steam, and with the OH at work I got no one to shout at, lol.

Halfords is expensive. Your better finding a local car parts place. I got a new battery not long ago for £25 and I don't have the cheapest one. I have a 2.0 Litre Gti

nice one dizzy u be carefull

dont get a shock when you relise how much fuel gone up in the last few months ha ha

I find I get fuel cheaper if I use next doors number plates when I fuel up in the middle of the night. Always remember to put them back on their car before they wake up ooooh you can take the boy out of Liverpool....

Nice one Dizzy_staff have fun and drive safely

Blue really?? You have no shame

bluestaff you dont see many montego 20lt gti on the road now where you get yours from

I know its not much of a looker but its a great runner

psml

blue what a cawincidink thats me parked on the hill in the background
spooky or what

Your joking!!!!! Did you notice your number plates where missing in that pic?
I was running low on petrol sorry

its ok i borrowed yours to get my petrol anyway

also i think your tyres are a touch on the bald side

We won't get caught.....there are probably thousands of cars on the road that look like ours

You 2 should be a double act!

Im hoping to get another year out of these before I replace them

not in such good condition ares have been looked after

I think you will find the 2 on the drivers side of your car are allot bigger than the 2 on the passengers side

ha ha blue i pinched your tyres three weeks ago not notice the ride been a little ruff

blue make sure when you get new tyres dont mix cross ply with radials

So you stole 4 and just put the 2 on the drivers side?

when i went for new tyres they wanted 30 quid each couldnt aford them so went round the back and there were loads with at least 2mm of tread on them now i just change my tyres every 3 weeks result

Ok ok I forgive you just keep your hands off my bike

blue that just stupid why you got a bike in everton coluers

arr forgot the liverpool ones come with stabilizers

Got a blue one as I ride through allot of s@!t

have you seen a geordie bike they come with no wheels and handle bars but if your lucky they come with a peddle
