Corrie Nick's 75 corrosion issues ?

Mogodon · 8th December 2020, 09:37

Just watching Coronation Street from Friday (I think).

Seems like Nick's 75 has corrosion problems as Kevin said he had to go from Manchester to Blackpool to get a subframe for a 75.

And they still sit on that 75 back seat outside.

He does have a point about going to Blackpool in December though!

Maybe he was off to dmgr, s place in Southport 😀

What a bizarrely random yet relevant statement for a soap opera.

Mat from DMGRS delivered my new subframe weekend before last and informed me they were absolute gold dust at the moment. So the Coronation Street quip was accurate!

Looks like Nick's other half has just totalled his 75 tonight.

At least we know the driver's airbags still work after more that 15 years..

It seems the air bags only deploy 10 mins after impact as Harvey nutted the windscreen then we came back to find them deployed. Also noticed a late mk 2 clocks and grille but they crashed a mark 1 .

I really need to get out more

Don't get me started. Love watching Vera but why oh why did they choose a Defender if they can't sort the continuity?

The wipers don't self park when you switch the ignition off so you see them getting out of the Landy with the wipers vertical, and then the next shot when they are interviewing a suspect they are parked.

And then there are the manual vents at the base of the windscreen - they have been known to magically open and close themselves in between shots.

Now I don't go looking for these things, but when you see them it puts a downer on the enjoyment.

Like you Pete, I should get out more, as Mrs Noc often suggests.
