More on the Chinese parts debate

Reminds me of when I had a keen interest in philately.

I always loved licking the Chinese ones.

 

just brought a new hotpoint microwave

guess where it is made

do I trust it lozzy

 

Be careful, it's going to attack you one evening.

 

Are you sure it's a Hotpoint

Just checking before we go down the 'Is mine a black edition' yellow brick road again

 

One can never be sure....

 

It'll only be for drying his mingy big undercrackers in I reckon, so won't really matter if it sets fire to them before giving them all radiation poisoning lol

 

Bloody Chinese.

I cannot believe that upon receiving another AGV K3 helmet today (for my Castrol theme) I read in the accompanying booklet: 'Made in China under AGV specifications'. Now I'm hoping my MV and Aprilia aren't actually made in China also.

Whilst I have been defensive - in the main - over Chinese product, it came as a real shock to discover that such a revered product as AGV is actually 'outsourced' to use the corporate deflection.

 

Still want to put your head in it?

 

now now lozzy
love you tooXXX

 

Hotpoint

 

Of course. But I've made adjustments.

Just dyed my hair black and purchased black-rimmed glasses.

 

I read somewhere that Chinese helmet linings were burning some people's scalps...you'll probably end up in the next hospital bed to @bazzashadow after he's cooked a few microwave meals for 1 in his Hotpoint Krakatoa lol

 

only just noticed it 2 years old already and I only brought it yesterday

that must of been a slow boat from china

 

Shame about your warranty!!

 

I've just looked at my Chinese levers and it says made in the uk,

 

Are you sure it doesn't just say: YUK

 

The black sticky back has turned up so I’ll get the numberplate sorted this weekend.....along with fitting the Doppellicht for the dual headlight conversion........along with the Fenda Extenda (it should be here tomorrow).

 

Will be interested to hear how long the headlight conversion takes

 

So I did the back of the number plate with the black sticky backed plastic @nigelrb recommended, and even shrink wrapped the yellow screw threads on the numberplate screw (I have issues) and tadah.....



I also removed and replaced that horrid clear sticky protection on the tail piece, it had all kinds of polish residue caught under its edges and looked pants. The new one from the same sticky back stuff is hardly noticeable (boy do I have issues), what you reckon?.....
