  1. I bet most people within the North Circ don't even know about the expanded zone.

    Once it comes into force and hits them in the wallet there'll be moans but everyone will just pay the charge..

     

    It's funny how people in the UK just accept being shafted by things like this. If this was France there'd be protests, blockades, riots.. We should take a leaf out of their book :)

     

    My parents live just within the expanded zone, and I live just outside it. So I'll have to pay £12.50, or whatever it is, every time I go to visit.

    Also, from what I've read, there's not going to be any discount for residents within the zone, so my folks will have to pay the daily charge.

     

    I don't think Khan is going to be re-elected as Mayor after all this. I understand his motives for this expanded ULEZ zone, but it's just going to affect the people on the lowest incomes more than the wealthier.

     

    I'm not sure, I think the people on the lowest incomes in London don't have a car, they have to take the bus.

    The rootin tootin new-middle class will be up in arms though... like us


  2. I imagine they'll have to start dealing with the concept of people who have to live within the zone too, like they do with the congestion charge. No idea how much that will cost..

     

    My plan is to SORN the corrado every day it's not being driven...


  3. It doesn't have to be specific wheel bearing grease. Most CV or high temp greases can be used. You usually get a little sachet of it in with new bearings, though I prefer to use a bit more tbh.

     

    I've got this one which looks the ticket, but it's really thin https://3-in-one.co.uk/products/white-lithium-grease/

     

    but I've just bought this, hopefully it has a bit more gloop to it.

  4. Possibly the other way round as mine was sitting in our stores at work a couple of weeks as I was offshore. Although when I phoned they said they were waiting on an exchange one coming back in so I might get my own back. Spot on, whatever!

     

    Not sure why I wrote last week... last YEAR!


  5. Makes me wonder why people have 2nd hand de-cats for sale?

     

    Is it the noise? or the MOT PITA?

     

    MOT PITA + mine came on the car, I'm much more an environmentalist than my 12v shows :)


  6. Yeah so, I haven't heard anything from the original poster in a week, so I'm still offering mine if you want it Odub?

     

    I'm going away today till Saturday so if you don't hear from me that's why :)
