While I dont know this for sure, an old workmate told me he had an issue with P plates which he put to the police to find out what the case was.

Legally its stated as P plates have to be clearly viewable on the outside of the vechile. So with tinted windows, you really arent supposed to have them on the inside of the car at all. Especially how some pople hide them in corners and so forth. So technically if you have tinted windows or read visors, etc you should display it outside the vechile.

PS: Go to Sydney, they are all outside the cars :D

Yeah, wtf is up with that?

Stick it on the fkn window you tool, how hard is it?

It's because sometimes the P plates are visible when placed inside the car. Either the windows are too tinted, or the angle of the rear window is too slanted. The poh-leese pulled me up in my 33 complaining about that, and told me glue one to my rear bar... It never happened lol.

Not from Melbourne, but my hated car lists are:

Excel (especially ones where people spend money to riced them up, might as well just throw all that $ done the toilet).

Civic (the old hatch model, look like a ugly bug, riced up ones just makes me hate them more).

BMW 318 (Got a bunch of family friends who buys a 2nd hand one & thinks they are in the rich group coz they drive a BMW; the cars that doctors drive... hello its a 318! the bottom of the 3's range! come back & show off when you have at least bought a 335, M3 or 760).

Jazz (just don't like it)

+1 riced up lancers

+1 camrys driven by 1.4m blind asian women thinking 60 means 6

+1 318s....now i really hate these....the worst thing is that those guys think theyre fast...pwoah i wana get my mums magna out and just rape one of those fux....:) angry :)

Anything made by SsangYong!!!!!

Dirtiest cars ever.

haha. Two girls from my high school bought these shit 80s 318is for that exact reason; they thought they made them look classy. The pieces of shit broke down so often and had to get towed holding up the whole rest of the car park from going home.

N/A S13s with chromies and the like give me the shits. Was at my friend's panel shop, and a guy with one came in asking for a 'body kit.' My friend said sure, it'll be blah blah to fit it if you supply one. And he goes can't you supply one? My friend asks the guy what kind of kit he wants (Vertex, GP Sport, etc) and the guy goes on to say "I just want a kit. The guy around the corner said he'd give me a body kit painted for $1000"

Screw you Patrick - I regularly have lights on during the day. Company policy :blink:

Makes people look at the cars more.

so..

2 light bulbs, say 55W each = 110W.

say you do 20000km per year, at an average speed of 45km/h..

say you drive during the day 70% of the time..

20000 / 45 = 444 driving hours/year

444 * 0.70 = 311 day time driving hours/year

311 * 110 = 34KWh day time lighting energy/year

1 litre of fuel ~ 16KWh of chemical energy

assume 25% efficiency for a combustion engine, and 70% for an alternator, which means

16 * 0.25 * 0.70 = 2.8KWh of energy from 1 litre of fuel

34 / 2.8 = 12 litres of fuel per year for lighting during the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's $18!!!!!!

And we haven't even considered the cost of changing light bulbs!!!

What about the effect on the environment!!!

shame on you! :)

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
