I saw one moving!

Post by tim leech »

Spotted a bx on the road being used! Silver TZD hatch or possibly Gti heading south on the M25 past enfield around about 1pm just going into the tunnel (dunno where its called). Looked clean and was being driven by a mature driver, didnt catch the no plate as I was heading north in my VeeDub at warp factor 5.

Love your new signature Tim!

Isn't the M25 a bit of a trek from Derbyshire????

Cheers

Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Sorry Mulley, they moved me to a diesel as my beetle was using so much juice :oops: with my uk wide BX/Sd1 parts collections.

Shame all my own cars are petrols as I always carry a fuel can with me :D

:D :D :D

I've been doing the staff bus this week, been taking a few peeps home in the car instead of using the bus so I think I'll relieve the company of a tank of fuel out of the bus tomorrow for my trouble... :shock: :wink:

It`s wrong that you know. Just like it would have been wrong for me to get fags instead of diesel in my last job. Especially at a remote garage in north/mid Wales where I always seemed to be low on juice when I went there :wink: :lol:





Tim, I`m only joking you know and mean no offence or harm. I`m just one of life`s pee-takers. Having owned the cars I`ve had over the years I`m not really in a position to laugh at VW owners, but I still will though :lol:
Also my spelling isn`t always perfect either mate.
