What costs more, sitting indoors on a desktop pc and oil fired central heating on or sitting outside in the car with engine running to keep warm and laptop plugged into accessory socket?

Indoors but not for much longer if you believe how expensive energy is going to get.
Why do people attempting to sell cars that are only special by virtue of having survived longer than their contemporaries as having coach work? Perhaps this is why they lasted longer than all the other ones which had a monocoque construction made of biscuit tin quality steel...
Perhaps if I keep the swift long enough it'll be coach built too..

If I buy someone a EuroMillions/Lottery ticket for Christmas, is it wrong to ask for a percentage of any potential winnings

just buy your self one with the same numbers, they you get some anyway, unless they win the raffle.
anyone know what size and more importantly thread the brake unions our fiats use?
i have loads, but i am using brake pipe for a solid fixed air line in my garage (as i keep cutting through the flexi pipe trailing across the floor). i need to know so i can find a regulator that has the same thread.
makes sense to use loads of what i have rather than buy new stuff...
Edit:
also through playing around with some spent 600g co2 welding cylinders that the unions i have loads of.. fit the tops of them..

Yeah they don't last me long. They cost £21.99 now
Found out that the thread is 1/8 BSP. Best thing is you can buy adaptors to convert 1/4 BSP to 1/8 BSP

Brake pipe is far too small for an airline, unless you only need a very small amount of airflow. Some copper water pipe is the best way to go
its only for air brushing, and to make my waste oil burner heater run. im in the process of making a silent compressor out of a really large fridge type compressor to run them both on.
sadly finding any pneumatic parts suppliers around derby is not easy!

When a car is SORN'd how do you get it to an MOT tester without insurance.
My insurer, Admiral, won't insure a car that's is currently SORN'd.
I can't remove the SORN and tax the vehicle because the car has no MOT.
I can't get it to an MOT station without insurance... :bang:

You insure it and drive it there. Admiral are being knobs, you can't tax a car (which removes it from SORN) without insurance.
Ask to speak to a manager and tell them to get their facts right. Or use another insurance co who are a bit more professional.
change insurer they have got it backwards

Screw that we need to setup a fiatforum lotto and anyone who's been an active member more than 5 years is a shareholder :-D
:yeahthat: Both my cars are currently SORN, but both are also insured so I can just MOT and tax them when I'm ready.
