What are you all up to today? - part 3

I dont have a problem with getting rid of the star system. Would be nice though to reach 5 reds before it happens (lol)

Malcolm you misunderstand me. I was only suggesting an option. 

It doesn't make any difference to me whether you post or not. I read what I want to read and respond to a fraction of it. 

I'm another vote to get rid of the star system too 

Then you may have been misunderstood by a number of people JS!  Deepest respect and all that.

Malcolm is never offensive, Never argumentative or contentious and actually strikes me as a nice bloke.

Leave him alone.

I'm frequently misunderstood Arty but I'm not bothered. Words on a screen and all that. 

Ready to get back on topic? 

I'm off now, have a good evening all.

All I can say is that Milliehull used to be friendly towards me and now she ignores me because of what Tinwheeler said. That's hardly fair, is it?

This comment is something I would expect my 6 year old grandchild to come out with, maybe I was wrong up thread maybe we should keep the stars, and instead of a naughty step we should have a dunces hat

... I've been on 4 reds for ever 

Sell, re van weights, ours is not much heavier than your so hopefully we'll attain similar fuel consumption as yourself.

Write your comments here...Guess it will be a little bit less as you have gone for the auto.

We will find out in due course. How much milage did you put in before towing for the first time with the D4?

Write your comments here...Was approx 800 miles, no reason for this it was just the first opportunity we got due to work, are you going for the volvo fitted towbar or are you sorting your self with a independant fitter ? i went for the Volvo detachable.

Same here. We are taking the benefit of the 10% discount offered for being a CC member., did you?

Nellie - we used our XC 90 for towing within a few hundred miles of buying it - a trip to Edinburgh in a gale!

I don't recall any restrictions and it doesn't appear to have done it any harm.

Thanks both you and SELL, as we would hope to use ours fairly soon after getting the car. We might even take the van through to Longridge and set off on our Autumn trip as soon as we collect it.
