  1. I was expecting a stupid price from the dealers to be honest, Just got off the phone, £11.60 including the VAT. That's one less thing to have to worry about...on eBay there are a few starting at £5 or £5.99 PLUS postage...new ones start at least £20+ Thanks Tom, The dealers were going to be my last resort, but they have come up trumps again...
  2. Whilst having the Felly Mot'd, The tester discovered a hole in the expansion tank whilst testing the emissions (it got a tad warm and steam was escaping from the tank) I've just spent almost an hour on the phone to every breakers yard in North Wales trying to source one with no success... Is there any other tank that'll fit straight in with little or no modification? Or does anyone have one sat about that I can purchase?
  3. I've just checked the site via the link above...apparently, I've got one of only three 1289cc 1996 Felicia's left on the road... It would be interesting to find out if that were true... I know most felly's around here seem to be the 1600 variant...
  4. Well that was wierd. My TV just turned itself off and back on again. Nothing else flickered, so wasn't the mains supply. I can feel a new TV coming to a living room near me very soon... :( I like my old sony CRT tv though...

  5. Factoid (care of steve wright in the afternoon) 95% of people in the UK use teabags. Only 5% use a teapot and loose tea. Does that make me 100% addicted to tea then? I've got both...

  6. oooooooh.....job interview at 12 noon tomorrow. put the kettle on si, it's just up the road from you...lol

  7. Has anyone in the flintshire/north denbighshire area got an odd piece of scaffold pole lying around that they don't want/need?I need 4 x 2ft sections (or 2 x 4ft or 1 x 8ft...) can pick up tomorrow or monday...

  8. WTF? I thought it was the London olympics not the paris olympics? Why are all the annoucments in frence first? Have we really bent over and let the olympic committee stick it up our arses that much? I'm ******* disgusted with the lot of them...

      So it's all his fault then is it.

  9. The lighting problem sounds like you might have a dodgy earth point, It would be worth checking every one of them and cleaning up any that have any sign of rust etc.
  10. I'm running a 1996 1.3glxi hatchback, (favorit in a felicia bodyshell really with the 136b engine) i'm regularly getting between 40mpg (around town) and 48mpg (at a steady 55-60mph on a 'run') No experiance with diesel, and a news feature the other day said most manufacturers quote silly mpg figures that in real life can't be attained, no matter how carefully you drive (one was quoted as claiming 75mpg, in reality it just about managed 51mpg)
  11. That neg is removable if you contact ebay CS... ...and some of your terms are 'non-enforcable' to say the least "contact within 2hrs" "feedback of less than 25" etc. a year ago i would of swopped you mine felly and a wodge of cash, but needs have changed... :(

  13. Can anyone give me a reason why i bother with ebay?Sold 3 items last weekend, got a neutral feedback for one as the buyer didn't bother reading the listing...and had to open 2 unpaid item disputes this morning...WTF is going on with ebay buyers?
