  1. More like “see if you have a discarded design laying around, the cheaper the better”.
  2. Search for sunglass holder in this forum. The issue has been beaten to death.
  3. It’s an Ecoboost engine, which has been in production for years with updates: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_EcoBoost_engine Probably not for Europe tho. We’re moving backwards, towards cole mines and steam engines.
  4. Probably direct from Ford. Here’s a random ebay link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Transit-Connect-Mk2-Van-10-2013-Manual-Wing-Door-Mirror-Drivers-Side-O-S/272721055497?fits=Car+Make%3AFord|Model%3ATransit+Connect&hash=item3f7f710f09:g:lqoAAOSw~e5ZQ~nn Mine’s electric tho.

    BSUPC is so alone in trying to get the thread back on topic.

    Oh, you’re in for a treat.
  9. Foxes are pretty much standard in residential areas over here. More than pigeons who don’t have a place to live with all the old attics being sealed off.
  10. Those too but they have pretty much everything there apart from novelty stuff: https://www.reifendirekt.com/
  11. Reifendirekt is doing the same thing in Europe, with free delivery. Very reasonable prices as well.
  12. 1.6 gasoline only. If OP has a 1.6 diesel then no.
  13. Oh yeah, check the brake pedal switch.
  14. The corroded part was replaced and sealed properly so no other issues so far.
  15. And Sienna, Tacoma and FJ Cruiser never came here ? BTW: HiAce rear axle is very popular among drag racers over here as it's extremely durable.
  16. Now that I know that LPG is not as cost effective as the ideal case they are selling it on, the only good side left is that it's cleaner and it's a 100% byproduct of gasoline production, not a separate effort and pollutant on its own. Today's diesel engines with paper thin cylinder walls (to fit in the absurd emission standards made up in offices by people never even seen an engine up close) will never last as long as these semi-frequent reports of some eighties Volvos hitting million miles on original engines.
  17. Latvia is only half bad. You would certainly be scammed dealing with Lithuanians. I have, several times over the years, lost huge piles of cash.

  19. We have free healthcare and it's awesome. There's a lot of criticism that the waiting line is long and doctors are having paid side practices which takes their focus off their "real job". Yes, I have used paid medicare more than once when I had needed it urgently. For most cases the free version is good enough. For specific cancer treatments that is not covered free you need to remortgage your house or worse, but there's a well functioning support foundation that organizes fundraisers (in newspapers and TV) for expensive cancer treatments and if you seem like a nice person people will pile up the money in a few days. It's a feelgood thing, to see an article published that someone is now 100% cancer free and will have a long and beautiful life ahead thanks to the donations. Especially in case of treated children.
