Today I picked mine up from the garage for the second replacement fuel tank this month (leaky tank replaced with another leaky tank, so replaced again under warranty). Parked it next to a couple of Alfa 156s we have in the family and marvelled at how little rust I had, and how reliable the Rover was by comparison. Alfas are great cars to give your Rover an ego boost after a poor few weeks! :D
 
Money back but not happy. I have been checking my post box for the past week waiting on notification that some parts i had ordered from the UK had arrived and would need collecting from the post office. However received to my email this morning a credit note to say my money would be returned and on the credit note it states the reason is that the parts were returned to the supplier due to a "Brexit issue" Since when has Russia been part of the EU????
Shipping to Russia has not changed since Brexit. Just don't understand.
I've had things the other way (watches, posted from Russia to the UK) with no problems and they've arrived before the estimated delivery date (which I understand is akin to winning the lottery with Russian customs at times). Very odd, as Brexit should have no impact on post to Russia at all. Some cock along the way being awkward you'd imagine :mad:
 
Funny that I can still buy stuff from China and other non EU countries with no charges:rolleyes: It looks suspiciously like revenge for Brexit.:mad:

Yes. The French are being ridiculous at the moment and the dutch to a lesser extent. It suits politicians to "look strong" but all it does is hurt their populations, usually those most vulnerable.

Dangerous game. Rhetoric can escalate very quickly into violence, either citizens or state.

Isn't it funny that the fish in the Channel are the EU's responsibility but the immigrants are ours.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Macron is in a pretty desperate position. At the last election he said something akin to "If this government isn't success, the next president of France will be Le Pen".
There are lots of ways to measure success, but I'd say he's not all confident right now. Add to that the threat of Zemmour, who has a wider appeal than Le Pen (it's a lot harder to call someone a Nazi when their parents were Jewish, rather than Nazis).
But the way he's posturing towards Britain at the moment isn't going to help. It won't help him win the election, and it won't help Britain, France or the EU in the long run.

Nothing to disagree with there:(

Take the opportunity to drop a match and torch all three at same time. LOL

And if the 4th Reich decide to rise and invade France again they can whistle for our help again. Tossers.
