  1. Your jab PP, PP number will be confirmed in your new PP, show the two.????
  2. The pain was constantly winding that bit of rope around the thingy for every pull to start it. Same wiv the British Anzani O/B.....???? When I upped to a 25hp Johnson, it was heaven, better still when I changed boats to one wiv a 60hp Mercury electric start.....????
  3. Yeeeeh, but in reality the BiB or the law don't care, 500/1000bht for being naughty....???? But, it's a big country, maybe different elsewhere...
  4. Your old PP number will be written in the new PP transferred visa/permission to stay stamp.
  5. Aaah, diesel pickups....???? At my watering hole, there is this loudmouth who thinks he looks cooool creating clouds of smoke that smells like the inside of a birds handbag, also a bloke who sells the gear. Now selling the vape thing in all fancy offerings, bit like the add-ons for phones.... ????
  6. I believe the fine for selling/supplying Vape paraphernalia is 500/1000bht...????
  7. I was street/strip racing in London up until I moved to LOS...Perhaps you should have been more adventurous during your lifetime, for some of us age is just a number, not a marked out age calendar..????
  8. A speed hobby has no age limit, except for big girls blouse types..... For instance, here is a real MG, with Stirling Moss at the helm, who carried on racing until he could no more....????
  9. If it wasn't for John Cooper, it probably would be one of these. An interesting read, The MG Mini...... https://www.mg-cars.org.uk/news/news106a.html#:~:text=For years there has been,racing is an eternal myth.
  10. Ah yes, it says dodgy on a public connection, first time it has told me that, but it seems melmagazine is flagged, mind you, I do have a zillian surfing safety things on my PC.. ???? "A Miatra is a girls car", hmmmm, well at least it's not a Chinese fake performance car, it does have Japanese tech and history....????
  11. That reminded me of a bird who lived a couple of doors away in London in the 60's, she had one of these.........???? For me, an iconic sports car, the Austin-Healey 3000, it had the same engine as the MGC, the BMC "C" 2912cc 6 pot.....Produced around 150hp. The body was made by Healey, but it was assembled alongside the MGC....????
  12. So, you have never owned a real MG yet you call them rubbish and unreliable, Don....Thank you....????
  13. You sound like nobody ever breaks down, but bruvs MG was rubbish because it did. My friends MG ZS power steering failed, taken away on a truck, is that a rubbish MG too.. PS. Power steering failure is pretty rare too.....
  14. Are you saying MGB/C/BV8, TR7, or even Austin Healey 3000 and even the E-Type Jag are not sports cars, well what are they then..? You reckon sports cars are your 6/7 litre and up are, that's daft. Most of the USA performance cars were 4 seaters, AND where did the AC Cobra and GT40's originate, the UK, designed and built to take the USA Ford V8's..
  15. I did the same with mini engine and box combo, but stood on the bonnet rests, and lifted it up, and on my own too......????
  16. Tell us more, did the gearbox fall off, did the axle give up, or did bruv not check the ignition points at the correct intervals......???? The problem with some of you slagging off MG's of yesteryear, is that many of us ol' Brits actually owned them and know the ins & outs of them. I will be honest and say that rust was a problem, BUT, I can't think of any ride of the era didn't have the same problem, even the mighty Aston Martin had a chassis that fell apart with rust, I have seen it with my own eyes......
  17. So you never had one or toyed with one....???? The MGB and Midget's were one of the easiest rides to look after or service, so I don't know where you are coming from.... Late 60's, two girls in our click had a Midget and Sprite, sorry, but your friends must have been pretty useless at car stuff....????
  18. Wow........just imagine what would happen if they tried to tackle NATO conventionally.....????
