Re: Car auctions
Geez, I give up! It has nothing whatsoever to do with what "my brother" did, or how many auctions you may have been to! What is being conducted here with these "auctions", is a DISPOSAL sale. Forfeited, or confiscated property, is being sold by a government to try and recoup unp...

Re: Car auctions
They also put "reserve" prices on cars, so it is not a true auction. Pretty much every auction (cars, antiques etc.) I've ever attended - UK, US, France and even Aus on one occasion will have a multitude if not the majority of items having a "reserve" (or bottom price if you wis...

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread
After a bit of hunting around, I found a couple of pictures.As an aside Steve - could you even get in and out of the MG now? I know I can't!!
I reckon I could still get in one but getting out might be a different thing!

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread
Some time ago I had an MG Midget which was our (well my) fun car for the summer - all good, but a suspect fuel gauge. Both the LHG and I loved going out for a drive in the countryside, miles away from anywhere... I had one of those back in the eighties and it always used to break down way before th...

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread
The cost of everything electric is plummeting"? No, not really - running costs certainly not, materials certainly not, efficiency perhaps. In countries with abundant solar resources, the value of daytime electricity is heading down to practically nothing. I realise that on here, many people ob...

Re: News of the Weird - this just in!
^I just watched that rescue on a US news channel and it was pretty impressive. Basically they lowered a responder down from the end of a horizontally extended fire ladder. It was a gutsy thing to do because there was obviously significant hazard of the truck moving during the rescue.

Re: The bikers thread; trips, news, chat, all things motorcycle
I've got a twenty year old half helmet that we got with our first Honda Wave, ( from around 2003 ). I've always used it for going around Hin Lek Fai because it's so easy to plonk it on your head. A couple of years ago, a new dog we had chewed the chin strap off of it, so as punishment, I cut off a p...
