  1. It is so easy to fix the agricultural burning. Any field burning will be identified by satellite and no growing on that field will be permitted that year. The army will destroy any crops grown in contravention of that order.
  2. We had a hot summer and in a traffic jam I had fuel starvation, I never had overheating problems. Cylinder lock on the key switch steering column broke too. My stag had the usual head gasket problems. Easily fixed with a skim, new gasket and most important of all use the correct antifreeze to stop electrolytic action. I did break the diff on mine. Talking of V8 muscle cars, I migrated to Rolls Royces in my 30’s, really fast off the line and the Bentley Turbo’s after the line too.
  3. I think mine was 73 too, it was badged JensenSP and had the fluted bonnet. Now you mention it, someone told me it had a 4 barrel carb, but I can’t swear to it, I didn’t open the bonnet much and didn’t know anything about yank engines. I remember it was a bitch in hot traffic jams. I was in my early 20’s and dealing in cars at the time. I bought it with 36,000 miles on it, repainted it and trebled my money on it after driving it 9 months. I did have a few minor problems with it but my cousin was parts manager for Jensen at the time and shipped them FOC to me. I took it back in part-exchange a couple of years later and was really disappointed how it had deteriorated. The cherry red leather was shot and the silver bonnet had yellowed on the flutes. I really enjoyed owning that car.
  4. Sone of us migrate to faster, more comfortable, quieter cars And some drive Celerios.
  5. In the UK I had a Jensen Interceptor SP mk3 440 cub in with Holley 4 barrel and Chrysler Torqueflyte transmission if I remember right, seemed quick at the time, nothing compared to a BYD Seal which reaches 100kmHr is less than half the time.
  6. There are lots of members here have the BYD Seal, you could ask their opinion in the BYD Seal Helps & Tricks forum. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
  7. Here you are again with your ignorant posts on Chinese EV’s, something you evidently know nothing about. We have discussed Sterzel (serpentza) and his anti-China rhetoric before as you probably know. F- must do better
  8. You may get away with spraying PU Foam insulation under the existing roof, it stops leaks and holds the roof together as well as heat insulation. spray at least 3” of foam.
  9. Or the Top Cat Top Cat! The most effectual! Top Cat! Who's intellectual!* Close friends get to call him "T.C.," Providing it's with dignity! source: https://www.lyricsondemand.com/tvthemes/topcatlyrics.html
  10. Yes, I did acknowledge & apologize that error a few few days ago, you must’ve missed it.
  11. When I applied for the Elite Visa, they asked me about large withdrawals made in Australia with my Bangkok Bank Debit Card. I never disclosed that account, I think you can take it as read that they know all your banking transactions.
  12. I remember Elon Musk showcasing this with a demonstration of automated battery change on the model S, it never went anywhere
  13. I think, never buy off-plan, and never buy new. There are always motivated sellers in the resale market, and that is where you should be looking if you want to buy and not loose you shirt.
  14. They initially registered 66. I suspect they were pushed on the dealers as demonstrators. They are appalling VFM so I would only be mildly surprised if they didn’t sell any at all. I am also surprised about the Changan Saloon, I don’t like SUV’s but it appears I am in a minority.
  15. I was about to reply and say there is a tax implication, before I read that the Land office wanted to charge you 75,000 tax. Yes, there is a tax implication, because half the Chote is in effect being transferred to a new person, so tax on half the value is correct. Consider the situation where you add your name to the chanote, and a few months later she removes her name from the chanote, you now have the chanote in entirely your name without paying any tax, that is why there is tax to be paid. .
  16. We “pollard” our Eucalyptus trees every 2 years approx.
