Re: Obsessed? Moi ???
The eventual price charged to my debit card was within a nat's crotchet of the exchange rate on the day ordered. No problems with it at all. The debit on my account showed it in $can, the exchange rate and the amount in £ (and of course the greedy capitalist lackey of a bank's charges for doing les...

How did you get on with the exchange conversions using ebay Canada?
I've brought stuff from Amazon.com before and their prices were all upfront converted before you committed to the purchase.
How does it work with ebay from an overseas site?

Re: Obsessed? Moi ???
I saw these recently on fleabay. There must be more than one company in Hong Kong turning them out as I see your image has a mileometer with a reading, whereas the one I saw was at 00000. It's annoying that they have limited advertising for them and that they are fairly prolific on eBay Canada, but ...

Re: Ott ?
Yes, saw that when it first got listed. 'Teardrop trailers' have been around since the 1930s, basically a 1930s trailer tent, but people still make them from scratch. if you do a search, you'll find them still being made in the USA and Canada. I thought they were something that had died off in the e...

Active Topics Link
Why is the Active Topics menu only showing 3 topics, the same 3 topics it's shown since Friday, even though there are several Topics which have been commented on over the weekend? So therefore they are 'Active'. Based on my use of other php based Forums, the Active Topics should be the list of most ...

Re: Anyone seen AUK 925 H, Maroon Traveller "Little Auk&quo
DVLA has it Untaxed since 2006 (probably SORNed?) No, if it was on a SORN, the DVLA website would state so. It's either parked up and rusting somewhere or very likely it's been broken up and the logbook/V5 not been sent in to DVLA. My car, recently purchased, has had a lot of work done, some of it ...

Re: Morris Motorcycle
Have you tried searching for the biography of "William Richard Morris, 1st Viscount Nuffield GBE CH". He only made motorcycles for 3-4 years maximum before switching to cars, so that's a pretty brief period of history for anything to survive, especially from the beginning of the last centu...

Re: Trafficators in use
markattard - if your Moggie currently has indicators utilising the Lucas DB10 system left installed from where they introduced the flashing brake light, then it's just a case of picking up a connection to each trafficator from terminals 4 and 8, which are the 2 feeds from the indicator switch. https...

Re: eBay XVS420
I don't think that necessarily means that it was taxed. How could it have been if it hasn't been MOT'd during recent years? It is post 1960 so requires an MOT in order to tax it. I think sometimes the information on that site is confusing. Good point, it didn't say 'Exempt' just 'No Details Held'. ...

Re: Wipers suddenly coming on
It's definitely a stray earth, which is effectively taking the place of you operating the switch. As it's causing more than one cycle of the wipers to occur, it doesn't sound like a momentary thing. As you say it's 'often when turning right' then I'd be concerned that something is moving when you do...

Re: Door 'courtesy' switches
My Section N is the Electrics.... gotta love the old books.
Reminds me of my technical training in the 1970s RAF; most of our manuals were from the 50's as a lot of the training equipment was old 50's stuff that had been consigned to the training role.
