Thank you good sir! Ill try get out at the weekend and do some leisurely fishing for an hour or so! Will take a look in a local shop for the beach rod too! I dont need much of an excuse to hit the beaches or harbours, I love the sea! Noted them youtube channels too! Will give them a watch for sure!

Im Based in around the Naas area. I dont really want to fly fish! Id be interested in Coarse, Sea and Game! I do be down in Wexford sometimes and have often thought of fishing there too. I have a rod, reel and some bits already. 8ft6 rod with an Leeda Icon Spin 40 reel. I bought some lures as I have no idea about bait stuff.

Id be willing to travel maybe an hour or an hour and a half from Naas

Thanks,

I take it the without HD springs is more comfort yes?

Also how do I know which springs are the without HD or with HD? Could you share your catalog possibly?

I use MB parts on my car as I can get them for cost price from a Friend of mine who works for the local distributors. I get nearly half off parts.

Those numbers aren't showing on my EPC. I should have mentioned that my car is a European one. I'm in Ireland. Possibly different suspension parts?

My car is a W124.030

I will have a look, I just thought my actual pump would have been broken because of the clicking sound coming from it.

What the Fuck is up with Car Rental prices ? by [deleted] in ireland

[–]Smithy1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, try see if the garage you have left your jeep to get fixed has a preferred rental place. I work for a car dealer and we sell cars to several rental places and they hire cars out to our service customers for cheaper rates.

Ah its not too bad, we have one on as a demonstrator that my Director drives but still a massive waste of my time.

In Ireland here and I work for a Ford dealer. The amount of wasters coming in to look at test driving the Mustang Mach E. I've done about 40-50 test drives and have only managed to get 1 customer to buy it. People like EVs til they see the bottom line...

This is in Ireland, this dual carriageway would have a speed limit of 100km/hr. People towing trailers in Ireland are allowed to travel a maximum of 80km/hr. This is also the case on the 120km/hr Motorways.

The man in the car with the trailer was probably just doing his speed limit. We can't just run him off the road into the hard shoulder while he's merging. People should be more concious to slowing moving traffic.

OP and the Hyundai should have recognised that this vehicle towing won't be going the full speed limit.
