We’ve clapped the past three weeks and will continue every week as needed.
They’re all doing a truly fantastic job, as are all keyworkers.

Online accounts exist to cater for this. The one I recommend is Revolut.

You’re right, Joe.
This baby Volvo is powered by a Ford 2 litre diesel and associated automatic. But then my 2007 SC uses a Ford-based engine block, as does our 2003 S-Type Jaguar. They’re no ... |

Joe, I’ve decided to keep you company on the Volvo front.
I needed an economical commuter car for a 60 mile daily work round-trip, mostly along the M3 and M25.
I didn’t buy a V70, but I wa ... |

When I did mine, I’d read somewhere to leave the gearbox in N, EPB off and open the driver’s door; all of which allegedly prevents the EPB from automatically activating.
I followed the above w ... |

Having started with a 2002 4.4 and then changing to the SC (nearly 6 years ownership of the latter), I’d say the SC in every respect.
The only thing I still miss from the BMW-era L322’s are th ... |

Vague steering on a Defender is usually a worn steering box.
My 110 has very positive and direct steering, even on larger tyres. Tyre pressures can make a huge difference, too.
Mine also has st ... |

I run both. A 1994 300Tdi 110 and my 2007 SC.
And we have a 1973 Series III awaiting restoration.

I own a 1994 300TDi 110 that’s seen many changes in the years under my ownership.
