It's official, F*UCK IT!!!
I'm not getting any insurance as it costs too much.
I'm not going to walk anywhere as it's too much work for me.
I'm going to sit here on my batty all day and be on the zone!

Re: Birthday today, need an E30!
Windsor isn't far and some posh people live there :giggle: I got some family in windsor, but then everytime I want to drive, I'd have to walk like and hour to get to the damn thing and then back again. If that saved you three grand a year, for instance, wouldn't that take the sting out of the walk?...

If you use a water repellant then you could easily hose off the crap too aftwerwards.

You may be able to get away with getting the wife to unstich the bolster area and then restich another one in it's place.
