My work mate just saw a bill for 7900 euro from BMW for two fuel pumps on his 2012 4.2 twin turbo V8 BMW M5 which thankfully was still under sales warranty as he bought it less than six months ago lol apparently it has three fuel pumps in total.

Annual tax over here for the 4.2 is 2,200 for 12 months 

Only race track is in Dublin 300km away

if it had three fuel pumps I would be getting rid off it

I've only red brake calipers on mine and one fuel pump 😂

The BMW even the seats are red that how fast it is,

I was only in it once and never again, he was two bus lengths ahead of a Kawasaki Ninja on the motorway 😲 I was thinking "I have kids i want to see growing up"

The M5 I think is at the highest tax band which is £555. I'd rather get an M3, get them from 32-35k for a 2015 one, £315 tax, less thirsty and will keep up with an M5 excluding the latest one. I'm sort of happy I do little mileage, hopefully that puts little wear on the car plus reduces running costs. This is kind of why I don't mind getting a petrol later on plus DPF diesels will clog up with the small driving.

Bad day at work but I came out kicking and hitting the nail on the head like a boss 

Coming at me with problems that are out of my control; to be repaired which isint my department.

Today they done an internal audit and couldn't find anything which I could change, so threw a few engineering issues at me instead, 

Gimme somthing I can change

Ah dont want to be ranting on now but;

also it's my dad's birthday and my mother wants me to phone to say happy birthday, 

But he never rememberd mine; growing up so it's sorta bugging me that she expects me to acknowledge his,

She also wants me to ask if he would assist in fitting a Swann NVW-485 wireless cctv system in my mother's next Sunday 

She doesn't want to ask him in case his girlfriend is there and she doesn't like to see him helping my mother

So she wants me to phone and say happy birthday and will you help me fit her camera system on Sunday.

I'm 34 years old leave me alone.

And it's her camera system which I bought for her yet she won't ask him to assist with fitting the stupid thing.

There like kids

Still bugs me though as I remember him not believing it was my birthday when I was eleven so I'd prefer nog to make the call today.

I'm in exactly same position, If I phone them there's anything more important than talking to me; "the postman dropped a letter in the box I have to go" 

Or 

"There's a stray cat wanting fed at the door, I have to go"

😂

It's mad isint it,

I had a stray dog when I was growing up and they sent me to my grandmother's one Saturday and took the dog for a long drive in the opposite direction.

Now she has around 14 stray cats which she buys whiskers dry food for just to look out at them playing in the garden.

sounds just like my mum 😞

I don't like ordering this kit from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00OTTRYXY/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

.....and getting this delivered today.

 

The filter is as ordered but the system cleaner and inhibitor is a cheap own brand instead of the filter makers stuff which is what I paid for. Regardless of whether it's better or worse than what I ordered is neither here nor there. The stuff I expected comes in a 500ml bottle, just the correct size to pour into the filter body. The stuff I've received is in a 1 litre bottle which means I'll have to dose it through a radiator or the header tank. 

 

I have written an email to the seller, I'll await with bated breath 🙄

Pain in the Hoopla, I'd expect to receive exactly as described in listing; amazon are fairly good with customer returns, 

Alternativly; Endotherm sell an 1/2" BSP adapter for pouring additives in through the vent of the radiator, They sell this adaptor seperatly i have one myself can meassure the cap size 🛥⛴🚢 if you want? 😁

https://smartgreenshop.co.uk/endotherm-central-heating-additive-500ml-720.html 

I also recommend fitting Aladdin automatic bleed valves for consistent maintenance free performance https://smartgreenshop.co.uk/catalogsearch/result/?q=Aladdin+Easyfix+water+valve 

For others reading; Ive used all above items and reviewed them in my thread here: https://www.fordownersclub.com/forums/topic/80864-living-room-project/

Its so sad reading on here how a lot of parents don't think a lot of there sons/daughters as mine are the complete opposite,they would do anything for me and my

older brother through bad and good times so i changed my life as single i dedicated a few years of my life to pay back to them that they helped me so i became

a living carer and i would not change it at all,i gave in a very good job to take on this and 14 years down the line still doing it and learnt so much about life/living.

that's good to hear well done ☺️

I don't think I could have wished for better parents, mine were well known locally for just being nice people who would help anyone. I was very moved at my Dad's funeral, when his comrades from the local Normandy Veterans Association,  all well past 80 by then, paraded as his coffin went past as a mark of respect.
