some very unhappy news from my end....

as some of u may or may not know...my car is off the road...and has been since november last year.....2 weeks after i got it to be exact...and as of last night i cant drive the other car i been using either. whilst driving my dad's v8 eb fairmont in beauy last night i drove past cops comin out of a street goin the opposite way to me...n force of habit n nerves got me as i turned my high beams off (which i normally dont do cos the high beams in that car are only as good as normal low beams)...the buggers turned n came after me.....n i parked as usual in front of my friends house only to see the beautiful blue n red flashers n that wonderful spotlight that blinded me to buggery. they started walking round my car...gave me an official warning to not drive the car at night cos one of my headlights was out...n if i was caught doing so again i would be fined n cos im on my P's i would loose points...which i dont have many of to start with so i was pissed. as his buddy was given me the rbt this guy continued walking laps of the car...n came back to give me more wonderful news. he said that i was now gettin another official warning....now im not allowed to drive the car at all....the back right tyre is bald....n if i was caught doing so again (except for driving home that night of course) i would be fined n loose even more points n probly loose my license....i was thrilled.......

oh but here's the best part...they sat in their car...n watched me walk into my friends place...so wish i wasnt wearing wat i was at the time...i felt violated....

but yer...that was my fabulous night.....so now we have 4 drivers surviving on 2 cars.......all going different ways at different times.....oh i got the best luck with cars...cant ya tell.

get it fixed and drink a cup of cement.

This doesnt deserve a sook thread.

ok seriously.....i was juz sharing some news....if u dont like it...then dont read it...

didnt u ever learn that if u dont have anything nice to say dont say anything at all?

u dont have to cut me down juz to make urself look better

Yep, Im putting you down because I want to look better on the internet.

Go buy a headlight globe for $10 and a 2nd hand tyre for $20 and drive the car. Its not rocket surgery.

what were you wearing ? pics ?

bad luck with the warnings, get some new tyres and a headlight globe.

wow do i detect a hint of sarcasm...you act like u dont actually believe that could happen...talkin on the net is no diferent to talking in real life....you still get some people putting other people down n doing all the same things....

...i wasnt asking for your help or anything ok i was juz sharing a story...so juz leave it alone...stop being so negative

if u dont like my post...then dont read it....move on

b*tch fight!!! the best part is where the cops watched at you like a piece of meat

JUST JUST JUST JUST JUST

MM that's shithouse. At least they let you drive home in QLD. In vic you can't drive the car if they police spot a bald tyre. Your car gets a thorough looking over and a pretty sticker for the windscreen, and in most cases $170 fine. On top of that you need to get the car roadworthy tested and then book it in to a dickroads inspection bay to get the car cleared to be on the road again.

Your car can be on the road in less than a day for less than the cost of a Victorian defect notice fine.

This is why people don't really care.

if we get a defect notice it gets sent to regency and they check for ANYTHING not stock, even rip the tint off your front windows, pricks but ends up costing way to much

HAHA great english..

Dont stress eb-baby. One globe, One tyre, 1hr max to fix both. It'll cost less than $50 if you get a second hand tyre from a wrecker or something. Then it'll be back on the road again.

yea give me a brake i shouldnt be awake yet, and i was trying to use another word but couldn't spell it :p damn my 12 grade education

What's wrong with your other car? Surely they can all be fixed pretty easily considering the price of parts for E-Series.

yer i know...but its juz a hassle...cant go to work today...n knowing my luck we'll probly find another problem with it....but yer my brother is changing the globe this arvo when he gets home from work....n we're taxing the spare from my car (since we found out yesterday its own spare is useless) so hopefull that all goes smooth.

fingers crossed

Why can't you go to work? You don't need your headlights for daytime driving. And surely the bald tyre could've been swapped for another last night when you got home?

Have you lost a day's pay because of this?

yer i know i dont need the headlights....but the cops said im not allowed to drive it with the bald tyre now i got the official warning...technically i could have...but if i got caught driving it i'd loose points n i cant afford to loose any of them...

nah got home at bout 11.....so everyone else was asleep...plus had no light outside

yep...sure did....its' only a casual job...so shifts are few n far between...joy

your missing the point, the point is that cops like boobs, legs and ass as much as the rest of us

my car has been off the road november.....after washing it one day lifted up the bonnet to have a peek...n a water pipe had bursted...n the mech reckons that the water got into the dizzy...so we got a new one n put it all back together....still doesnt start so he came back out n said its still the dizzy...so we'll try once more with a new dizzy hoping we juz got a broken one the first time....n if that doesnt work then....well...im hoping it does...cos i dont have the money to get an auto electrician out. also taken so long due to lack of time...which sucks...

interesting note...after washing my car that day i havnt been able to drive it since...n i washed my dad's car yesterday n told i cant drive it now...........im guessing i should stop washing my cars.....

I don't get it? You can't afford to risk driving to work in daylight with a headlight out, but you can afford to miss a shift?

And nobody could help you change your tyre this morning?

Stalker, I mentally noted the point

maybe she is blond? wait do you wash your car in a bikini? this would help to explain alot..

the headlight had nothing to do with work today...obviously...
if it wasnt for them notciing the blad tyre i would have been at work. but the only person who could help me with the tyre this monring was my brother....n i set my alarm to 5 to try n catch him before he left so he could give me a hand...but when i got up he was gone...so he must have started earlier for some reason..i dunno

maybe she is blond? wait do you wash your car in a bikini? this would help to explain alot..

lol yer i am blonde......technically yes i was but i had clothes on so no...so that dont count....how would that make the police target me more tho...i didnt see a car parked anywhere in my street watching me lol

Maybe you are blonde - You can't spell for shit

maybe im smarter than you....maybe i just choose to spell like that...

i honestly dont think u can judge a person by hair colour or their spelling for that matter...

i spell like that cos im lazy...

are you referring to me? my spelling really isn't that bad dude, and this is the internet spelling really doesn't need to be perfect

OK, well two quick questions:

1) what's your build? (with respect to strength for lifting a tyre up)
2) do you know how to change a tyre? <-- not an insult, a genuine question.

well put it this way...n im not tryna show myself off or anything stupid like that...im not like that...i'd honestly prefer it if no one on this site knew wat i looked like...juz easier that way...but im a lean 18 yr old chick so im not exactly the strongest person in the world... but im a complete girly girl...but yer...u get my drift...
n yer i know how...juz havn't done it for ages...n always have something with me just in case...

NOT a complete girly girl...NOT! my bad...typo there

Its more important on the internet. I dont spell out my conversations in real life.

If your dizzy got wet it should have dried out and been fine. I would guess that the new dizzy got put in wrong or there is another issue. Maybe some important wiring got damaged.

Get your hands dirty and learn to change a tire and headlight globe. Its not that hard and being a chick isnt a good excuse.

i wasnt using it as an excuse...he asked me a question....n i answered...

Oh ok, your call I spose (needing someone there "just in case").

I was referring to stalker. Not you eb-baby

eep...my bad...sorry then lol

Gozza wrote:I was referring to stalker. Not you eb-baby

dude seriously GET THE F*CK OVER YOUR SELF, my spelling is just fine, i get a little lazy at times, but who the hell cares! i say it as a joke about the blond hair etc but if your so petty you need to pick on spelling then fine, have fun with that, ok?

So many dumb shit replies everywhere

Dan for PM

I have fun with lots of things

ok well maybe if you let go of it for long enough and go out side, you will see how the real world works, and by that i don't mean working on your car...

I don't need to let go of it to go outside

Gozza wrote:I don't need to let go of it to go outside

yes you do, police will arrest you for that sort of thing...
