The Wilo

liverpool ladys

anyone know where i can get 2 CHEAP tyres for my 17' (standard lexus) just found out that 2 are on the limit and this month has been a bad one for cash outlay. Just been quoted £150 each from kick fit I Am gold so anyone ofering discount would be good to in the liverpool area

I would just like to say that i know all police are not like the ones i encounted with the crash i had, and i am sure that hertsALTEZZAcol is nothing like the ones in question, but i find it VERY hard to respect the police beacuse of bad experiences i have had the one above and the fact that i live in liverpool am quite young (24) and that i have short hair, (you are probably thinking whats he talin about) well the police around here see a youngish lad not in a suit with short hair and think hey must be drug dealer, gangster etc, when i get pulled over (which may i add is quite alot about 2 or 3 times a month) i get the usuall have you ever been in truble with the police i say no which i havent and i get most times "yer thats i likley story". so i say the police look at me in a sterotipical manor so i will look at them in the same manor

well at least it got sorted out in the end, i am gutted for the people that have had accidents with the police (non fault) and have had to just lay down and say ok it was my fault when it wasent, due to not haveing anywhere to go for advice help etc. when i was talking to the insurance company, solictors it was like i was talking about the mafia they where like What the Police no sorry cant help you on that one.

You bet they would have, i had to go to about 10 differnt solictors before someone would take the case as no one wanted to even look at it when i mentioned the police. even my own insurance company said to leave it cause i had no chance of winning. it just annoys me when they say inocent until proven guilty, yer only when you aint dealin with the plod

Got no time for traffic police myself after I had the following incident. (Sorry about the length) in January 2001 I had coming out of a tunnel in Liverpool and was travelling down a dual caragway (speed limit 30MPH) I had just passed a speed camera when I heard the sirens of a police car and did the first thing we all do when we hear that noise I looked at my Speedo which was 30 I still had not seen the police car, I was in the inside lane going straight on but there is a turn to the left. which this idiot police man decided he was going to take at what I would say was over 100mph which he failed because of his speed and my car (which was a savannah people carrier) he hit me on the drivers side (HARD) flipped my car over as I hit a lamppost I was on the roof of my car looking down at the police car ( a astral) which had lost control he flipped over about 5 time and went through a bus stop and 2 lampposts before the car (well what was left of it ) came to a stop about 500 yard away on its roof ( the car was totally knacked) the engine was no longer in the car and the boot of the car was on the other side of the road to the car. (if the crash had not have been at 11:30 at night there would have been someone killed I am sure as the police car hit the bus stop etc. and was all over both sides of the road. (This all was going at slow motion as I was upside down in the car.) I got out of the side window as the door would not open and ran to the police car thinking that who ever was in the car would be dead. As I got to the car the drive climbed out and proceeded to call me all the names under the sun for pulling out on him when I noticed the passenger was bleeding really badly. next thing there was police everywhere and they had to get the police man away as he was still going for me I was just ignored for about 5 min (by this time I could not stand up with the shock and was being sick (year I am that hard) when a police woman asked if I was ok (about 10 min after the accident) I was then escorted back to my car and told to sit on the pavement. 2 ambulances came non even came over to me and took the 2 police men away then after this I was not even asked what happened when I was asked to give a breath sample I did and it was fine (not even had a drink all week) then I was asked what happened and the police officer was like year ok you could have killed someone. eventually about 30 mins after the accident a paramedic came up to me and asked me to get in the ambulance which I did and said I was going to the hospital for shock etc which I refused as I was getting well annoyed by then as I knew the police thought it was me. so I had to sign something to say I wisent going the hospital. I sat there on the kerb for another 20 min before my dad turned up (I had phoned him earlier) and it took him 10 min to get to me as the police had blocked the roads off because of the extent of the accident. And would not let him through. I ended up staying there until 4 in the morning (they where taking al sorts of picks and interview me about the crash) when the police said I could arrange for my car to be towed away (something to do with the other guy getting checked over and not being life threatening). I eventually went to hospital the next morning I had 2 broken ribs and whiplash etc. I also had to produce that day. eventually after 3 months they admitted liability only after me coming up with video evidence form CCTV cameras on the road the crash happened on and only because I was working at the time selling these systems and had contacts. They tried to do me with Dangerous driving and wanted a ban. So this is why I have no respect for the police

Well i got the model and color i wanted (had to wait for about 3 weeks to find the right model color etc) but i got a strathcaron blue Sport on a W reg with 70,000 on the clock full history mint for £8600 private, i know u pay less for private then trade but i was not willing to pay nerlly £5000 more to get the 1 years cover from lexus for the same car. just make sure if your not to good on cars to get someone who knows about them to check it out and get a HPI cheack done.

under braking (does not have to be heavy) i am sometimes getting a high pitch squealing, i have checked the pads and all are ok as far as i can see without getting the wheels off etc. any ideas what it will be?? also any one know af a good paint shop and lexus specilist in the north west area?
