  1. as per the above.........this is not going to be pretty. I remember when I lived in a pub we had to have loads of it stripped out...........bloody big tents, contaminated clothing being burnt and all sorts
  2. bah! Buggering around with 'winter wheels'!!!! Lifes too short mate.........get decent wheels kerb them every winter and get them refurbed - you'll never get bored of them........its the future!. Swapping wheels for winter invites one thing and one thing alone...........sods law. You'll swap the damn things off in Spring and kerb it within 2 weeks. Stick them on fleabay.........people will buy any old crap on there curbed or not.
  3. Nice comprimise if you ask me.......all of the fun with a little switch that takes away some of the pain.
  4. Just tell us what it is Bisqwits!!!!! You know you want too
  5. Nah you should be fine - chavs tend to avoid cruises......no sand to stub their fags out in. Plus at least you get different places to sample........if ones kack then just pull up the chain and scoot off to the next one.
  6. No direct knowledge mate but this does sound very much like a 'back in the day' word of mouth verging on urban legend. You know how it goes......new technology, a few back alley installers slat it in an already semi knackered car - thus every problem thereforth gets blamed on the LPG. Grandad tells your dad, who tells his mate in the pub, who tells his mate at work, who tells his kid, who tells you at break time. Personally I'd give it a crack if its been installed by a reputable company...........only real pain is the lack of filling stations but if its dual fuel (petrol and LPG?) you might not be so bad.
  7. Unfortunately Dave...........you are absoultley spot on. Another part of the world that has been ruined by letting the entire cast of the Jeremy Kyle show have access to too much money. The worrying thing here is everyone who we spoke to said 'oooo what a shame we were at the Sandals next door and it was lovely' Where the hell do these cretins come from!!!!!!
  8. I might just redo it completely with a really obviously sarcastic review but with no bits they can possibly reject.....and a worse rating for good measure.
  9. Freedom of speech my jacksie........... Dear TripAdvisor Member, Thank you for your review. We have opted not to publish your review as it does not meet our guidelines for traveller reviews.

Best regards, TripAdvisor Support Team [123] ------original review------- Subject: Blau Varadero Hotel Cuba Location: Varadero, Cuba, Caribbean, North America Title: Chavalicious ID#: 90570452 I honestly can't even work out how to try and to get an understanding over to you in writing about this hotel........but before we start - our profile - Both 28, typical Blairs Britain working class family who've eeked up to lower middle class, white collar, reasonable income, very moderate drinkers, appreciate decent food but would wolf a McDonalds if backed into a corner. Before the onslaught begins I thought I would make it clear - the staff work their backsides off, Mr Inglesias answers all his critics on here and I respect that, it is not the hotels fault that food in cuba is difficult to come by the 'finest' produce - its a commie state don't forget - government control everything. Generally they are only catering for what the masses demand. So if you happen to be someone who has previously enjoyed a trip to Butlins/Pointins/Benidorm (insert any other destination that chavs with a bit of dough in their pocket used to go to)....you'll love the gaff. - Get hammered all day, - Hammered all night, - Listen to vaccous entertainment in the giant echo chamber that is the hotel - Listen to a sax banging out Careless Whisper until your ears bleed and you actually pray for death or at least a severe accident where you will be hospitalised - Listen to endless x factor garbage all day long at the pool - Eat food that is grim beyond almost all comparable belief! I mean seriously anyone one here who can with any sembelence of a straight face say the food is nice literally needs to see a doctor or good psychologist urgently (the posh restaurant is VERY nice though so my argument about food supplies actually doesn't stand up.) - Go on endless generic excursions to various tourist traps to be harrassed to buy crap. - Balance on a 10ft wide spit of beach with 150 other people - End your holiday in an airport which is about as organised as a race riot in Oldham. I would literally rather eat a tapeworm than visit this hotel again.........3 stars might seem generous given my review but the bottom line is this holiday cost a fortune and was some where between staying in Butlins and a chav palace in Benidorm. Why in the hell would you fly 9 hours to go to a place that could LITERALLY be any other generic resort in the world that caters for the international vermin that is the great British public. If you want culture - go somewhere else as your basically trapped on a spit of land thats been specifically designed to cater for the invading European/Yank hordes(if you think swimming with a dolphin thats been gripped out of the Ocean and trapped in a 100 meter pool is culture my point is probably already lost on you). Shame really because its no ones fault in particular - the hotel caters for its clientele - chavvy, booze loving, tasteless, red raw sunburned, chain smoking, hot dog eating detritus of human society who save hard all year to drag their weary fat behinds away for a fortnight to let it all hang out........and believe me.........hang out it does. Recommended alternative destination - Stalag 17.
  10. I'm 28, already had the mid life crisis car, flogged it got something sensible then made the missus buy a 2nd midlife crisis car which I now steal I'm only pulling your leg......I mean its not like your buying an M3!! I'll still speak to you if you buy a Porker. TVR's must be the biggest tragedy in the modern world......how can something that stunning be such an untold bag of spanners is beyond me (obviously discounting the fact that it was made by a bloke with 1 eye called Sid in a clapped out warehouse in Blackpool).
  11. Well done Iain (utter swine!!) This forum has turned me into a raffle addict.......I have to visit village fetes in my spare time just to get a fix!!!!!!
  12. Depends if you fancy having one of these at 70mph or not
  13. Meh each to their own I guess but I honestly was blown away when I first saw the 370. Strange but it seems to be a marmite car. I've just been looking at those TVR's........now I know TVR's literally break down every day and they're not particularly practical but sweet baby Jesus and the orphans they look erotic. A low milage Tuscan can be picked up for around 14k now
  14. I honestly stunned that anyone could think the 370 is anything less than beautiful. Realistically Dave you probably need to get the mid-life crisis Porsche out of your system before you come back to reality. Provided you can live with small children pointing at you and saying 'look daddy that man has recently developed an erectile dysfunction' you'll be fine Audi...........give me strength - blandblandblandbbbbbbblllllllllaaaaaannnnndddzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. At least you'll look like a **** with money in a Porker (bet you don't have it for more than 12 months though). Get something titsmentalcrazy like a TVR Sagris.........you'll be broken down most of the time but small children will say 'look daddy that man has no problems getting it up'.......dads will look on in awe.
  15. Huge fight.........will it cost you anything to write endless annoying letters to them - nope. Fight the good fight!!
  16. +1 plus added advantage of a cool name and not having to say you own a Kumquat (which looks like a proper girls 4x4 BTW)
  17. R32.......remove badge........order GTI badge............done.
  18. but 10% is only 5 posts........... .........and 2 of them were asking why his 'for sale' had been disapproved. Daz has been around a while - I don't think he was being a naughty boy.
  19. you could visit 'Killhope, the North of England Lead Mining Museum'? Or the Derwntcote Steel Furnace
  20. Choose your vote carefully dawg or I'll show you a magic trick with this finger
  21. 1, ChrisS....Paid 2, Russ......Paid 3, hatterjon.....paid 4, martinmac 5, Ewan221 - Paid 6, Ricey - Paid +1 on more than 20.......and while your at it get sponsering him for the run too! viewtopic.php?f=13&t=43639

    insurance

    This has been discussed a few times but the road, driveway, garage thing actually makes a little bit of sense. Where is it easier to steal a car? - Out in the open in the road - Out in the open on someones drive - Hidden in a garage thats probably got a crappy lock on it, where you can take your time. Bearing in mind most sports cars are usually cased up by a criminal rather than being an opportunistic TWOC.
  23. +1.......cheaply.......to people from Chester............who's names start with the letter R
  24. Never driven one so its only on the basis of what I've read but I believe this has an important argument in the FWD case Honda Integra DC5.......fairly widely regarded as one of the best handling cars around. I've had plenty of FWD cars before now and I've personally on day to day driving felt more aware of its limits than a RWD (presume because of the feedback in the steering? )
