need to ask a few things :-

what should i check ova on my car?

will a 4spd 1.2 nova make the trip without blowing up?

will a full tank ( i just put ?30 in ) get me there and back or will i have to top up again?

what are the welsh like?!?!


i feel my car is mechanicaly in grat condition cept for the driver side CV boot which split yesterday so all the gack inside it is all over the place...

other than that i cant see anything wrong... but plz gimme tips cause i dont got breakdown cover lol!

[Dave]

tip: if you see a man in a sheep field with fishing waders on look the other way!
just check normal stuff oil, water levels etc.
depends on your right foot an the roads you are goin on motorway driving will give you better fuel econ

[Nova Modder]

i changed my oil + filter when i got the car, that was 4k miles ago... its starting to go black now... should i change it again... or wait till 10k?

lol @ sheep shaggers

I been to wales a few times and found the people to be alright - although when my sheffield accent is heard i got some strange looks in a pub i went in... very strange looks actually. :lol:

[Nova Modder]

:D

[wisewood]

then again you know i just thought... my accent gets me funny looks pretyt much everywhere i go...

especially from people in birmingham :lol: who if you ask me have no right to take the pi$$ about accents :lol::lol:

[Nova Modder]

LMAO!!!

i KNOW i dont have a hardcore brummy accent so im alright...

but for those that do... well... my condolences :p

[jkhilton]

Whereabouts in Wales are you going?? my ex has a chalet in Abersoch, we all used to go up there all the time until a tree fell on the roof and crushed the place. It is nearly rebuilt now though, so soon there will be more parties on the beach!! :)

[Nova Modder]

im goin to Llanbedr... done even bloody know how to say it lol

[Dave]

there is a place in wales we deliver to at work it's called llanelli
but it's pronounced clanethley according to a welsh bloke that was on the side of the road!

[Nova Modder]

omg...

Ll together in spanish sounds like a Y

and in wales it sounds like a C

WTF lol

[jkhilton]

Llanbedrog?? that's actually where the chalet is, it is about 1 mile out of abersoch centre. It's really cool up there when it's sunny, loads of people around and always loads of parties going on.

[wisewood]

welsh is a very strange sounding accent but i have always kinda liked it ;)

[Nova Modder]

you mean "the ranch" ?

thats where im going..

[jkhilton]

I was meaning my ex's Chalet is up there. it is in a little chalet park next to a campsite and behind a giant castle type hotel.

[Nova Modder]

ah ha

[RobIsGrt18]

sheep, sheep, sheep shaggers !! lol :P

[locky]

lambder! im certain ive done some breakdowns there! is it in the south?

[wisewood]

well i was in north wales again last night and had a pretty good day all in all... good laugh.

[Stuart]

the welsh can be very very odd at times. i eman even in swansea weve experienced the old "they stop talking in english and talk welsh" routine before lol

fuels a bit cheaper though as is beer :D but try to find a decent pint lol

oh and the welsh accent is possibly the biggest turn off ever

[wisewood]

i quiet like teh welsh accent actually - as long as its attached to teh right voice. :D
