Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
Those people who want to ban petrol & Diesel cars.
This will kill the UK caravan and trailer markets, as most electric cars cannot pull them, and i'm not talking about the small models.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
Having a new kitchen fitted by a well known kitchen supplier and there are 3 items which will be delivered 5 days later (the fitters will have to do an extra day on a Saturday) ! The washing machine is the wrong one (correct on the original order and on the delivery note) ! you would think that the personal that pick or load the vehicle would do a check.

There's a reason these companies usually ask for all the money upfront.

Good, might stop them clogging up traffic and might mean those that shun living in a house have a bit harder time of it to

Not quite true, it all depends if the manufacturer has had the car type approved. This site has a list of electric cars that are type approved and can have a towbar fitted and their towing weights. Of course you'll take a hit on range but that's true for any powertrain when towing. I don't own a caravan myself but wouldn't let your worries put me off buying one.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
I know a guy, who is a Disney fan, so was happy to have a daughter to buy the VHS (latest at the time) tapes.
Well he cheated on his wife and left and took all the said VHS tapes.
It turns out that some are worth a lot of money, some are worth over £20,000 so I've been told.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
Insurance companies @ renewal time.... still up to their silly old tricks.
Rang up for the renewal, £70 higher than last years premium, told them I'm going to look elsewhere & all of a sudden it's £20 cheaper than last years premium.......

Is it not easier and cheaper to get quotes online, also using TCB offers?
