    I've got neither so we'd be back on discussing the value of 0/0 again.

      Scottish parsimony?

      For me it's 0.125% for the first one, but I can't be arsed to work out what savings I've got, what with all my cash being in the mortgage account, funds, and all that baloney.

          The first one is 8% or 0.2% depending on which car I am driving.
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              I did wonder - assuming you've got a house of 300,000 your car would be worth £30.

              We had a cricket teammate last season who literally lived in his car, some old banger with two suitcases in the back seat. So I guess he'd come out at 100%. Harrow education, Durham University, and all he does is swan around the country playing cricket.

                  It's on its last legs though 211,400 odd... barely run in, but the engine has developed a habit of going out while taking low speed corners... and the complete lack of accellaration from standstill is getting a bit dicey...
                  I reckon you should try to get it to 250k!

                  Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.

                    I've got a rover on its last legs with 190K. The engine is still sweet as a nut, one of the old Honda jobs, but the bodywork is flaking off...

                    I'm not a very good contractor running one of those am I.
