Obviously I'm leaping to conclusions here, but see this ... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c29d2lenkp1o I wonder if speed limiters preventing racing would have saved these six lives?

Its not all bad though is it? "Having just finished 2023 with 10 days in Cape Verde, thoughts turn to 2024. Already have a couple on the go: Off to Zimbabwe/Zambia for 10 days on the 10th Jan. Visiting some investments - a possible new one in Zambia and a current one in Zimbabwe. 2nd trip is in the planning stages for after Easter - a 10 day road trip in the Eastern USA visiting potential universities with my daughter. Looking to hire a Dodge Charger or similar."

It should be possible to use multiple hose clips along that area rather than just one in different positions as a temporary fix. I stress temporary.

Hydraulic tappers would make that noise until oil pressure is achieved. If you’re not using it regularly-not just warming it up but using it-then I’d start by putting in fresh oil and new filter. Cheap. Easy. Worthwhile regardless of whether that is the issue. then fix the radiator and use it properly for a week and see if it’s fixed it.

So it's overheating? Or head gasket/s gone and pressurising the system?

Just by draining the fuel and using fresh? The old stuff looks contaminated, like 2-stroke fuel from my leaf blower. But for me that's just because of the colour from the 2-stroke oil.

With ALL issues, this is the checklist: 1-what was the last thing that happened before it stopped working? 2-read the codes 4-earths.

You mean about the retention of documents? No, I am not. The actions of each party in response to the documents being located were clearly different.

Down to £35k now.

Are you being serious? Trump appeared to have broken the law. He was tried and convicted after a Grand Jury decided there was a case to answer. If he had NOT been tried that would have been more troubling. As for the retention of documents, Biden and Trump acted about as differently as is possible to imagine-and this has no impact whatsoever on whether Trump falsified business records-unless you see it as proof of a pattern of behaviour.

Days 4-7: possibly the lowest ebb of my life. That is when I visited, so that's just bloody charming.

The Hastings wording pasted previously says "How will THE CAR be used" so even if Husband was driving to the station with Wife in Wife's car, the car was being used for commuting, although not all the way to a permanent place of work. Definitions, small print, contracts. Its all in the wording and as noted, the standard and commonly accepted meanings of words. Does "driving to work" include driving to the station? Does driving to work include driving to a car park 400 yards outside the ULEZ zone, then walking in to the Office across the boundary? Does driving to work include driving child to school, leaving car in school car park and using bus for 2 mile trip to the office? If the wording was clear originally, Hastings would not change it, would they.

Out of interest, I recently saw a FB post about a Lotus Eclat "barn find" with the reg SWS8S. Pretty run down, also a red one in the same barn. One engine between the two I think... I cant find the post now because FB is useless like that-but it would be fun to own both registrations.

is that what it looked like when you bought it? Nice.
