I remember him telling me about his Sinclair C5. He said standard they do 18mph and he changed the gearing and his did 24mph That's Harvey all over lol.

Truly shocking, but that's greed for you I suppose. I've been on the receiving end of that myself recently, from somebody I thought was an old friend. There you go!
Harvey dropped in with her a few years ago I think it was, they were down here on holiday and he just popped in to say Hello. Nice chap..

Sadly given how this current shower of ****es run this country she will probably get 120 hours community service and get to keep all the money

Harvey will be driving a 7.5-tormer that will carry much-needed medical supplies and equipment, clothing, footwear and a small amount of food. Each volunteer will be raising £500 towards the cost of the trip to cover fuel and ferry charges.

so shocked to come across this thread, I was with Harvey only 12 weeks before his death, he drove me to his lovely house where he kindly thermal wrapped a downpipe while I chatted with him in his kitchen, I was over from Bradford, my car was booked in at Darrens for a few mods. Lovely house got to say, massive gardens with Geese roaming around outside. I was sad to read Dawns message when she broke the news of Harvey's death, now I can see the dark side to her, HOW COULD SHE ? What a horrible person, this woman has caused so much misery it just beggars belief.
