lmao!!! what a man

ppl i knw used to fill door cards up with sand/cement/ballast basically whatever they had to hand

£100/ton = 10p per kilo. Cement costs more than that and even I wouldn't spend an afternoon filling up doors for the sake of £2.50. Plus, if anything gets spotted they'll just tell you to FO, which is fair enough since it's fraudulent.

That's rediculous, and makes you wonder how much platinum is in those old cats...

How did you manage to get that much for a rover cat, everytime i try to weigh a genuine rover cat in i get told they're aftermarket cats and get offered £2 each so i end up keeping them.
