Yes MB the car is fuel injection, but I do it because of its age.

The car is 22 years old and still working hard, today from the garden centre, four bags of compost,
six bags of gravel and two 50 litre tubs.
.....not too bad......just avoid roads with speed bumps Smile .

“The Car” is a small family saloon, quite low, and I’m absolutely pi55ed off by bloody 4x4’s with super bright headlights which are level with the top of our windscreen and always on mainbeam, don’t german vehicles have a dip switch ?.

I have been looking at LED roof mounting (magnetic fixing) light bars, that’ll teach them Smile .

my car id a Vauxhall Agila only 1000cc 3 cylinders but it is very nippy , great for rural lanes and I have had 10 bags of compost in there, bags of chippings and it will carry 2 blue barrels at a time. I use it like a small van with the rear seats flat permanently.
