You were the one that kept pushing the subject not me. No matter what way you put the facts you offered something for sale and you were not a Gold Member. I hope I moderate fairly and squarely for everyone only you seem to think that no matter what anyone says to you especially when it comes to the facts that you are being treated unfairly and that couldn't be further from the truth. I would be more than happy if you could give some examples of how I should have treated this subject with you. I just told you what the facts were. I am more than happy to leave it there. Mike.

When I was thinking about importing a 430 from there I remember correctly change of registration was a requirement and I am sure it had to be done within 12 months. Mike.

Mine never get dirty because you have to take your shoes off before you get in. Seriously I haven't had to clean them yet as they are not dirty. I just take them out give them a good shake. Mike.

I repeat again I have not insinuated that you are a liar. I am always careful with my statements. The only information that I can see is on record is what I have already disclosed to you. Are you saying that you did not try more than once to sell this item while being a Gold Member? Did you only try the once to sell? With regards to selling so that a charity can profit, the rule is quite clear when it comes to selling and that is no selling unless you are a Gold Member. I personally am not a fan of that rule but it is a rule and to be a member of the LOC you, other members & I accept that rule is there and has to be adhered to. You could always put it on Ebay and pass the monies on to charities that way. As for the Charity part of this problem. I am not insinuating that you were going to do this but there are many that would abuse that sub rule if it was there and never pass the monies on to a charities. It is not possible to administer that everyone who said they were going to do this actually passed the monies on to a charity so that means no one is allowed to sell unless you are a Gold Member. There are no exceptions. Now please let that be an end to the matter. Mike.

How do you go on about the so called private plate which is an Irish plate and will have to be replaced within 12 months of it entering UK. Mike.

If its of any use to you I have found that they have a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Tyreleadercouk/591004377624920 I bought some Falkens for my LS from them and there was no problem with them, full spec, good date and they came pretty quickly. Mike.

I have not insinuated that you are a liar but people are stopped from trying to sell things on a daily basis and not one of those gets a warning point. I have had a look back to 17th Nov 08 when you were given the warning point for selling despite already having been told you cant. Mike.

Hi Hugh and welcome to the LOC, we are a friendly bunch and some of us even know how to pull them to bits and put them back together again, with of course the one bolt and washer left over. Regards Mike

I doubt very much that you get warning points by stating what you think of J Clarkson or come to that by trying to sell without being a non Gold Member, unless of course you do it on a daily basis. Mike.

If you have paid with your Credit card Not Debit card you will be more than well covered should the worse happen so dont worry too much. You don't have the same cover where your Debit card is concerned its a case of talking very nicely to your bank. Mike.

You might also let them know by way of a link that its is being discussed on the LOC. Mike.

Hi Terrance and welcome to the LOC, we are a friendly bunch and some of us even know how to pull them to bits and put them back together again, with of course the one bolt and washer left over. Regards Mike.

Its only build up of condensation in the exhaust pipe, all cars do it, good sign your engine is in fine fettle. Mike

Hi Trevor and welcome to the LOC, we are a friendly bunch and some of us even know how to pull them to bits and put them back together again, with of course the one bolt and washer left over. Regards Mike.

Good luck Phil, nice looking Volvo, got a mate who has just bought one exactly the same as yours. Mike.

Come on guys lets keep it friendly none of us are angels, most people are hitting on the difference between a down pour/heavy rain II think we all know what Tony means so lets all get friendly again. Mike.

The way this works is the high bidder who bids an enormous amount of money for the car to ensure he gets the car, sends the seller a note to says if the winner doesn't turn up I will buy the car off you, of course the winner doesn't turn up because we all know who the winner is. He keeps sending notes asking if the winner had been in contact but of course we all know he hasn't eventually the seller gives in and our well known chap turns up to pick the car up, going over the car he finds so many things wrong with the car that he offers you barely half what the auction price is for the car, he can use charm or menace but hes done it so many times hes well practiced at it and he comes away with the car for I would think about half what the final bid was. Then low and behold as if like a miracle our chap has it for sale , no mention of the dash lights not working anymore so perhaps he has repaired that problem or any other problems with the car. I bet that the list of problems with this car is a mile long. OK for spares. Mike.

All the above has been taken in good part by all and its raised a smile to our faces but it does just go to show how easy it is for someone to get upset and all done in innocence. Mike.

That is an absolutely brilliant idea. Don't even have to worry about not being able to reverse an articulated vehicle. Mike.

Who would have though what panic, stress, drama, misunderstanding, lost sleep, anxiety, tension, foreboding, suspense, worry, apprehension, consternation, unease, fear, and all because I forgot to put a "." I do humbly apologise. Mike.

you mean AJ ? :) I would probably agree if I knew what AJ meant. Sorry I am old. Mike.

Thanks god I don't have anything to do with those VAT B....... no I mustn't swear, I was never in a position where I couldn't pay the bill but on a couple of occasions I made a mistake and the way they descended on me you would have thought I was some sort of low life villain of the worst sort. I had a friend who committed the ultimate way out because of the pressure they put on him. Good luck with it. Mike.

Hi Luke and welcome to the LOC, we are a friendly bunch and some of us even know how to pull them to bits and put them back together again, with of course the one bolt and washer left over. Regards Mike.

Looks like a converted ambulance. Mike
