  1. What you need to do is fill the car to the first click push the ODO. Then drive it until the light comes on. Fill it again to the first click and note how many litres (exactly) you put in and what the ODO reading is. This will give a fair range of driving for most. Divide kilometres x the number of litres and the highest figure wins. This is the only fair way the light is no acurate guage. ie 590k/49litres = 12.04 kpl
  2. I use EBC Reds - Sorry that's for my mountain bike. B..y expensive $45 and they are the size of a 10c piece
  3. I would advise them to lodge a claim with their insurance company (one of the ones where you only notify them but don't actually go through with the claim) just in case he does lodge a claim against them. That way they don't lose their no claim bonus but have a back up just in case.
  4. There were two golfers on golf course and one pulls out a cigarette and asks the other for a light. His friend pulls out a twelve inch Bic lighter. "Wow, where did you get such a large Bic?" "Oh my genie got it for me." "Your genie? You have a genie? Where is he?. "He's in my golf bag." The friend says "Can I see him?." His friend says "yes sure!" So the friend looks in the golf bag and out comes the genie; "I am your masters best friend. Will you grant me one wish." The genie says Yes, just one wish. So the man wishes for a million bucks. The genie goes back in the golf bag without saying a word. Pretty soon the sky starts turning dark. Then it gets even darker. The man looks up and sees a million ducks flying overhead. He gets really upset and says "what is the matter with your genie? Is he hard of hearing? I said a million bucks not a miilion ducks." His griend says to him "did you really think I asked for a twelve inch Bic?."
  5. All sorted now no excess assessor has approved work. Probably not too bad really cost to fix is $2500. They put the slide hammer on the lock and pulled it out a bit so it locks again. I have to wait for a month to get it in to the panel shop which is a hassle as the rear hatch lets in heaps of noise and a bit of exhaust.
  6. Just lodged the claim over the phone this morning and some good news. I get to keep my rating one for life, because I had all his details and a witness I don't have to pay the excess. Getting a quote this morning and seeeing assessor later today. And I get a rental car (up to $40 a day) for being a Gold Card holder
  7. The bit sticking out is the end of the chassis rail. Thanks for looking silvabullit had already done that - hope the door open bulb does not blow if its left on for a couple of weeks. Anyone know a good RACQ repairer on the Southside
  8. Coming home from work some d head used my Sportivo to stop his dunnydore. New licence, no money. no insurance. Problem is the damage is probably a lot worse than it looks the bumper is squashed in and a piece of sharp metal like a stick shape is pushing through. The carpet in the boot is buckled so looks like the body has been affected. Exhaust tip has paint on it but does not look like it has moved What I need help in is that the door light remains on although the boot hatch seems closed. So what that means is I can't lock the car by the remote. Where is the door close sensor for the hatch how can I trick it into thinking the hatch is closed properly. Oh the agony of it all. PS does anyone know if RACQ has the no blame policy
  9. Little Johnny's next door neighbour had a baby. Unfortunately, the little baby was born with no ears. When they arrived home from the hospital, the parents invited Little Johnny's family to come over and see their new baby. Little Johnny's parents were very afraid their son would have a wise crack to say about the baby. So, Little Johnny's dad had a long talk with Little Johnny before going to the neighbours. He said, "Now, son...that poor baby was born without any ears. I want you to be on your best behaviour and not say one word about his ears, or I'm really going to spank your butt when we get back home." "I promise not to mention his ears at all," said Little Johnny. At the neighbour's home, Little Johnny leaned over the crib and touched the baby's hand. He looked at it's mother and said, "Oh, what a beautiful little baby!" The mother, who had braced herself for Johnny's comment, was pleasantly surprised and said, "Thank you very much, Little Johnny." He then said, "This baby has perfect little hands and perfect little feet. Why, just look at his pretty little eyes! Did his doctor say he can see good?" The mother a bit bewildered, hesitantly replies "Why, yes...his doctor said he has 20/20 vision, why do you ask?" Little Johnny said, "Well, it's a good thing, cause he'd be f**ked if he needed to wear glasses"
  10. Mick went to confession and told the priest that he had had and affair with a loose woman. The priest demanded to know who the loose women was but Mick advised he could not tell him to protect the woman. Was it Mary asked the priest, No said Mick, Was it Susan, No said Mick, Was it Jane , No said Mick, Was Marie, No said Mick Then it must have been Bernadette said the priest. No said Mick I can not tell you. The priest then said for his sins and to repent he could not come back to church for 4 months. Later that day Mick's mate asked him how he went at confession. Great replied Mick I got 5 good prospects and 4 months off.
  11. Fred got home from his Sunday round of golf later than normal and very tired. "Bad day at the course?" his wife asked. "Everything was going fine," he said. "Then Harry had a heart attack and died on the 10th tee." "Oh, that's awful!" "You're not kidding. For the whole back nine it was hit the ball, drag Harry, hit the ball, drag Harry."
  12. When you have this car you just wish for red lights. Then bang lift in first touch it in 2nd then a cruise to the next red light. Those people behind must be thinking What the F has that Corolla got in it. I'm fully hooked so I can never go back to a family car again (that will now always be the wife's car) and maybe MP3 or something in the future when the school fees are gone. Oh no he crys that means the Rolla will be around for a few more years (lucky the affair is still good - don't tell the wife it would be a hard choice between the two).
  13. Thanks . It maybe 35k but 15K in lift HA HA HA :) ;)
  14. Have you been watching too much PIMP MY RIDE or MONSTER GARAGE These cars have heaps of room in them - just not for your legs. In the back you can't put your feet under the front seats and in the front you hit the firewall. Great if you have short legs. I have a couple of pics on my phone but too lazy to download them .
  15. Just spent most of today in a brand new Hummer H2 travelling from Brisbane up to Noosa and back again. This car (truck) is an absolute beast Chevy 6 litre V8 2000RPM at 110 kph. Cruises at 140 and rides really well for such a huge automobile. You certainly get looked at (especially as this one was bright yellow with black tint windows). I wouldn't mind owning one but I couldn't afford to run one let alone buy one. For such a big car leg room is at a premium and you can not really stretch out.
  16. An ugly woman walks into a shop with her two kids The shopkeeper asks: "Are they twins?" The woman says: "No, he's 9 years old and she's 7. Why? Do you think they look alike?" "No", he replies "I just can't believe you got shagged twice"
  17. My beloved Sportivo is to be 3 years old next month and I'm putting it in for it's 35k service and want to get a pre end of warranty check. What do you recommend I especially get them to look at as nothing in particular seems to be wrong (touch wood). But I suppose if something does go wrong quickly after the warranty - I'll at least be able to say you were supposed to check and they may help out - I have found my local dealer to be pretty good.
  18. Depends on what you get with it and the level of spec. You can get a cheap gas buggy $389 or a Nissan 350Z or Supra around $500 in Aussie hobby stores. But $1400 that's a bit expensive
  19. :D Were you trying to say that the rolla is like a shopping trolley and you were trying to push it into the trolley bay. :D
  20. Upon hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed away, Katie went straight to her grandparent's house to visit her 95-year old grandmother and comfort her. When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied, "He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning." Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people that were nearly 100 years old, having sex would surely be asking for trouble. "Oh, no, my dear," replied granny. "Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even. Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding,and out on the Dong." She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, "He'd still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn't come along."
  21. You better be able to beat a trumped up taxi or you will give the Stivo a bad name. A guy has an XR6 here at work and YUCK just a falcon really bad interior trim etc etc . I like my bro in laws SV6 Commodore much better.
  22. Pierre, a brave French fighter pilot, takes his girlfriend, Marie, out for a pleasant little picnic by the River Seine. It's a beautiful day and love is in the air. Marie leans over to Pierre and says, "Pierre, kiss me!" Pierre grabs a bottle of Merlot and splashes it on Marie lips. "What are you doing, Pierre?" says the startled Marie. "I am Pierre, the fighter pilot! When I have red meat, I have red wine!" She smiles and they start kissing. Things began to heat up a little and Marie says, "Pierre, kiss me lower." Our hero tears her blouse open, grabs a bottle of Chardonnay and pours it on her breasts. "Pierre!! What are you doing now?" asks the bewildered Marie. "I am Pierre, the fighter pilot! When I have white meat, I have white wine!" She giggles and they resume their passionate interlude, and things really steam up. Marie leans close to his ear and whispers, "Pierre, kiss me much lower!" Pierre rips off her underwear, grabs a bottle of Cognac and pours it in her lap. He then strikes a match and lights the cognac on fire. Marie shrieks and dives into the River Seine. Standing waist deep, Marie throws her arms into the air and screams furiously, "PIERRE, WHAT THE F**K DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" Our 'hero' stands and says defiantly, "I am Pierre, the fighter pilot! If I go down, I go down in flames!"
  23. Concentration test for men NOT WORK OR WIFE SAFE http://www.miss36dd.com/Concentration_test...ping_center.swf
