    Required on trailers over 1.3 meters wide. Now I'm not sure about triangular reflectors, some have a white surround and I cant remember why, I think it may be the length of trailer ????

    I have to agree, if I am honest, it is far enough away to be reassuring more than anything else, but the ones on the front, really cannot see the point of them. The box trailer has front ones quite high up and they got dead annoying. I suppose...

    Just cleared a small job on me tratter to do list. About a year ago I couldn't get the nut undone on the battery negative terminal clamp. It's a bolt with a conical spacer set vertically through the terminal, so tight it was at risk of damaging...

    I have to agree about stalks etc. My old box trailer has the vertical posts you use to lock it down with i.e. to stop it moving when parked and being loaded etc. They are right on both rear outer corners, so visible in mirrors, but not annoying...

    Lights on trailers is a simple reg requirement as to what and how many due to length/width, am sure some manufacturers will add more. I actually like the rear marker stalks on our big trailer, which has markers on the side and the front none of...

    I have just harvested yet more "haricots verts". We have so many, (and W doesn't eat them) that I think I am going to try and make them into soup. Maybe do the same with the beef toms which are suge! ;)

    If you have bills etc for the work done, then he has to get it done, and right, and not at your expense. Check out the Consumer Protecion Act on the Gov.uk website.

    Took a spin in the Mini, no further instances of "front-firing" (so far) since I changed the dashpot oil to 30W. :D Too soon to declare it "fixed", but I think we are getting there or thereabouts. :)

    I don't own a D3 so cannot help you directly. @gstuart is the guru on them hence I tagged him. Have you contacted the seller to ask/tell them about this as it looks like he/she sold you a pup? At least as far as this is concerned.
