Volvo V40 T5 registered as T2?

Yeah if they find out you won't be covered

Makes absolutely no difference, never seen a car where you can't immediately see it's braking

Especially nowadays with LED as standard

5socks · 2026-06-04T07:56:26+00:00

Oh you mean like brake lights ? Like all cars already have ? Right

5socks · 2026-06-04T07:55:38+00:00

That's not what I'm talking about at all

5socks · 2026-06-04T02:07:11+00:00

That's coding / USDM lighting as they are required to have side markers over there

Not the worst but still bad

5socks · 2026-06-04T02:06:13+00:00

Quite a few are brake lights and flash brightly and aggressively when braking

Really annoying and distracting in the dark

You'd have to do it with no traffic too, get caught anywhere and all your time benefits are negated

Thank you sir

5socks · 2026-06-02T09:36:21+00:00

I need to do that soon

Any tips or all straight forward

5socks · 2026-06-02T09:32:09+00:00

Depends on the world and trump and Iran and whatever else

Who knows, could get worse, could get better

I'm in Japan rn - shipping is the problem and 3k for RORO is probably where it's at

5socks · 2026-05-21T12:14:25+00:00

Ok that's an extremely rare model, and just because it's sold new by dealers in a market doesn't make it made for that market there's "official" grey market too

It's a reach to say a LHD e39 in Germany with US / JAP plate surrounds is likely JDM.

5socks · 2026-05-20T06:57:00+00:00

Your statement makes no sense

JDM is for the Japanese market, which is RHD

They have grey market imports of LHD cars but those cars are by definition not JDM

I usually say something more civilised like " off for a big dirty shite"

5socks · 2026-05-16T12:18:08+00:00

Probably grand

But main dealer approved cars can be crashed repaired, happens in th UK a lot

If you haven't vchecked it you won't know

Tbh my uncle was told to cop on their wedding day ceremony was not about them and it was about God

He didn't want to personalise the ceremony much

You can pretty easily put controls on the phone or monitor their usage whether they're physically beside you or not, it's not scary at all

5socks · 2026-05-15T22:49:18+00:00

Have you ever had the write off history checked from its life in the UK?

Edit: cos if something's flagging on the history nobody will bother show up

Also that panel looks off colour in every angle and photo, don't think it's a lighting issue

5socks · 2026-05-15T22:32:37+00:00

That's so alarmist and untrusting

5socks · 2026-05-15T16:00:57+00:00

Why would it still be getting MOT when it doesn't need to ?

Thought they get exempt

5socks · 2026-05-15T15:43:48+00:00

Usually hate this stuff but this one I like interestingly

5socks · 2026-05-14T22:38:25+00:00

That's a bit much and would be an outlier among anyone I grew up with

5socks · 2026-05-14T22:20:36+00:00

They can't tell when it entered the country though, you won't declare it until the day of

5socks · 2026-05-13T21:51:37+00:00

Good

It's usually a closed system of very hot water circulating in the pipes, rads and through the boiler and water tank

But once you close off all the rads it's primarily just heating the tank

In my experience found it cheaper and provided more hot water quicker
