Im looking at going to see the KOL when they are in the UK. Can anyone recommend me a safe reliable site to get the tickets from? Iv heard some horror stories about tickets not turning up,and scammers etc.

Im a similar height,and have struggled abit. When on a long journey my left foot goes on the foot rest,and my right leg is bent up with my knee resting on the door card. Seat is way back,and seat reclined abit. Iv fiddled with the knobs on the side of the seat,but find they dont really help.

Has a thread i put up last night about a run in with a Toyota Starlett been deleted? It seems to have disappeared without a trace. Didnt mean to get myself or anyone in trouble,but would like to know for future reference.

Well isnt this a great day! lol

I live in Brackley,and im working at 2pm,but could pop over and meet a few people if they are going to be there. Be great to meet some members. Will also bring my standard Z,but more interested in meet members than anything else. Let me know a location,and after a swift clean,il be there.

Finmere is just up the road from me,i live in Brackley. Is there any of these event booked for this year at all?

Think il be looking at a set of these,as my house is up the top of 2 pretty steep,long slopes,and last year it took me an hour to get the Astra from the main road to my house,less than 500 yards.

Yep. Just PM'd Sarah and asked if i can have a set. Was thinking about this the other day. Im guessing they are not hard to change.

I did the same thing,was only when i took a much closer look,i realised what it was.

Im sorry but i dont think they really work. However really like your wheels. Can you change the bulbs to clear ones,and still keep the orange indicator flash?

Oh you mean use the huge run off area that if he had used it and gained an advantage he would have been penalised. I am sorry he tried to use the track!! At the end of the day it was a racing accident, Webber made a mistake and Hamilton quite rightly seized the opportunity. Hamilton is a racer what do you expect him to do? Horner does my head in too on about Hamilton been too aggresive then says nothing about "crash kid" Vettel, this is not a sport for wimps Anyway we will have to agree to disagree Yes,that HUGE run off area. lol Hamilton has said that Webber was in his blind spot,and he didnt see him,hence the accident. I agree that it was a racing accident,and as the stewards took that view point,there is no argument there. Christian and Martin are both there to critise the other drivers,and try to distract them,all to gain an advantage. Why else would Moany Martin wait till now to reveal that he wanted to sign Vettel,and will try again at the end of next year?

The Renault Crash gate was the year before,2008. There are bound to be Hamilton supporters out there,and there are always people to disagree with what other people say.

What a load of rubbish, what do you expect him to do? Webber made a mistake and Hamilton seized the opportunity and had every right to challenge at that point! Hamilton had him beat Webber had all the time in the world to get out of it but decided not too but decided instead to do what Red Bull do best "If you cant beat them knock them off the track" Sorry you feel like that. However,he closed the door in Webbers face,and he had nowhere to go,atleast he managed to make the turn and not punt into the side of him.Unlike Hamilton,who had the huge run off area to escape to,and avoid the accident,but he chose to try to go around the outside,but use the racing line. If you look at last year,Alonso and Webber had a similar incident at the same corner,and they both went wide. Webber was then asked to give the position back,we thought unfairly.

Awesome looking car,and amazing pics,you must be very proud,looks like a show winner.

Well what a race yesterday! It was just settling down to be boring and someone crashes. Thought it was pretty good. Was great to see Hamilton come unstuck,as he was trying to squeeze Mark way to hard,he had the run off at the exit of the corner to use,but chose not to. Good to see Williams,Force India and Renault doing well,and the STR too. Was a very mixed up race,and i think was a good spectator race. Vettel came soooo close to overtaking Alonso,who as always didnt put a foot wrong,he is a great driver.

Was going to get one of these knocked up in the machine shop over the winter once the races stop,but if they are £100 then il have one from you.

How would I be able to tell if there is a problem with it though,i havnt a clue.

Thanks for the reply,I just cant see any explanation as why this will screw up the LSD. Im hoping itl be fine,though I have no idea what will happen if it does bugger up

The Zed had its MOT today,and it passed fine. However,i completely forgot to tell them about not putting it on the rolling road to test the rear brakes! I went back and asked them how they tested them,and sure enough,on the rolling road! What are the things I should be looking out for with the LSD,as iv heard that the RR can bugger it up. Can I do any tests etc? Also,why does this have an effect on the LSD,as its surely no different to being driven on the road. Id be interested to see the answers to these. I am abit worried now....

Have you thought about a Mk5 Astra 888? A good friend of mine has one,as its awesome. I know its abit old now,but still be the car id have if i needed a diesel hatch. See this. http://www.totalvauxhall.co.uk/page/tot ... _888_astra

Had a wave from a Kuro Black 350 heading from Buckingham down the Finmere bypass towards the M40. Nice to see it was as dirty as mine!

Its really bugging me that the passenger window is not on an auto/one touch operation. Is it possible to rectify this? I noticed the GTR switch looks very similar to the 350's.

Red Bull for the championships ,but then im biased! lol

What a drive by Mark Webber,some serious moves he pulled,and was good to see him not loosing his self control and getting flustered. Vettel also did a blinding job,the whole race bar 1 lap on the soft tyres to finish 4th. Its thats our worst track then bring on the rest.

They look fantastic,great job! Im curious though,dont the LED's need to be yellow to be road legal,or am i talking sh!t? When im better off money wise,i may well be sending you my pre facelift ones if your interested....
