So my new tail light came for it 370 quid later but il feel better
I did. Made bit of difference but not enough - still stupid amount.
Everything gets blamed on Brexit, mostly it's not true.
That's not how facts work anymore. We now have alternative facts
Had that argument with my insurance, they said “oh it’s a Range Rover they get stolen” I said yeah but that’s the l405s, another insurer said “does it have keyless” I said no it’s 2006 so needs a key there reply “ok no probs as we’re not insuring any with keyless”
I'm afraid it mostly is true.
No problem getting stuff from China though.
Merry Christmas everyone
No but then there is no change there due to brexit, it is business as usual. It still takes a few days and costly shipping from China whereas I used to be able to spend 20s online to book a box to czech/poland/france/Germany/Netherlands etc etc etc and it was collected from us at 2pm and at the customer's door at 3pm the next day virtually guaranteed.
Some of these shipping delays are due to new EU restrictions not directly related to Brexit, getting stuff from the USA is now a PITA for example but BREXIT is a convenient hook on which to hang problems. It's going to get worse with the EU introduction of EES and ETIAS systems.
Yes, new eu restrictions because we are no longer part of the club.
Yes very true but the UK is also not propping the club up with billions of UK taxpayers money which is why the EU are being vindictive. It was all so much easier before the EU but you are probably not old enough to remember that.
I replaced the Headlight lenses on my facelift L322 a couple of days ago. You know the phrase "How hard can it be?"
Up to 2009 and they are held on with Butyl and you just bake them in the oven to soften it and pull the lenses off. 2010> cars have the lenses stuck in with Sikaflex Buh stard's!
Quite the difference.
Pleased I've done it and if you've seen my ride height issues in another post, you'll appreciate that I didn't even need to bend down to take this pic as it was almost level with my teeth!
