  1. The volvo is a nice car to drive and be in. A little plastic like in some places but for a 2.4 d5 it can definitely shift. What one did you buy?
  2. Are you going to be bringing the air filter back up into the engine bay or use a hydro filter? I really hope this runs well! Well done for the effort on this one!
  3. Thanks guys! I must say I'm proud to stand a tie with such an awesome car as Bizz's! What a competition this month! Was definitely a tense one when I entered!
  4. I totally agree with everything that you have said here What I'm looking for is all the others that have made ridiculous statements without any facts to let us know where they get the info from to make these statements. What you have said above is 100% correct and factual.
  5. Something else that is driving the yes campaign is how much David Cameron is sh!tting himself at the moment over all of this. Some of the Scottish people are now thinking along the lines of, why do they want to keep us? Is there something that we have that they want? Is there more to this that nobody is admitting?
  6. Oh ... of course the decimation of the coal industry only happened down south! Of course everyone works in the Oil Industry up here... and of course the entire economy is linked to said Industry - No - Scotland has an awful lot more to offer and fall back on - medical research,chemical sciences, ICT and creative media/ gaming, Tourism - same as any Western / Developed (Industrial) country the (potential) GDP is made up of many parts not just oil. According to Salmond, diminishing oil reserves will account for a massive 15% of Scotland's economy and they will dwindle to nothing in 35 years. If you think that's unimportant, good luck to you. As for Neil, who thinks I'm talking the biggest load of "bullsh1t" he's ever heard, clearly he's not been listening to the 'yes' campaign's rosy predictions. The selfish side of me says, "go ahead, vote yes", because in the long term it will be less of a drain on the UK's economy, but I really don't like to think of our Scottish brothers and sisters shooting their children and grandchildren in the foot, for the promise of short term gains. We're better together. Buddy, I'm in the no camp and still think what you said was bullshit. I've watched every debate from the start of the campaigns until now. I have immediate relatives who are in the gas industry and were legal analysts for westminster for trading gas. I'm perfectly well informed and aware of the oil reserves that Scotland has. Who gave you the figure that it will run out in 35 years?? The biggest threat to the Scottish economy is not the oil running out, its the costs involved in plugging old wells to allow us to open up new ones. Docwra, Scotland has a thriving tourism industry, one of the most famous pharmaceutical research labs in the world, a huge construction industry, a very busy production industry, and a very good educational system. Besides a couple of car factories and canary wharf, what does England have when the oil reserves, that the country have, run out. Bear in mind if Scotland does go independent, this will have a massive impact on the financial sector in England and also the taxing system in England. If the oil runs out in Scotland under a westminster government the UK is still f*cked. The economy will crash again. Please remember that I am a unionist and agree we are better together. However, there are questions and statements here that people need to back up with some facts.
  7. I honestly think i've never head so much bullsh1t in my life. What else do the UK have to offer when their oil runs out at scarborough etc? The main reason that the UK is where it is at the moment is due to oil. The biggest risk for scotland is the decommissioning of the current oil wells and the costs involved. Its nothing to do with Salmond's vanity either??
  8. Any particular bits or is this just Salmond style response? Salmond actually done amazing in the debate the other night against Alistair Darling and did have some very good points. If anybody wishes to watch its below.
  9. Drift battle to determine the winner That would be awesome. ...even better if followed by a quarter mile & handling course. Best of three events wins. Trying to get neil to do a quarter mile is like trying to get blood from a stone! I think he's just scared Lol Stevie, straight lines are for people who can't drive, i've already told you that You demonstrated this excellently at knockhill :lol:
  10. No, shame he disapeared, nice guy. yep! was a great guy and photographer!
  11. Along with Grahams post, I think it's just a bad month to enter in too many great cars! Lol when I entered I was thinking that but thought, if you want to be the best you've got to go up against the best
  12. 10 mins from me mate! Need catch up for a beer!
  13. Which has what to do with a thread about the iPhone 5? I also have a lumia as a work phone and its absolute pants. Just to balance this out
  14. See the thing I think and this is only imo but Amys Zed is a girls car. It's owned by a girl and modded to her tastes. That's not to say it doesn't look great or isn't a good Zed, .....it's just that with the majority of members being men on here that when it comes to a choice of what car they like it's bound to be something more like bizz's with the sheer power of the LS engine or like Neilp's with it's balls in your face awesome styling. I also pack some grunt lol, albeit in the form of a bottle!
  15. Some more from Glasgow's George Square Glasgow City Chambers Glasgow Commonwealth Games Monument One of my mate Bryan, he wasn't expecting this, just a quick snap. I may add he is not a big issue seller, the weather got bad so he dug out his red cagoule
  16. Yep Bizz's car is sweet! I really like a few cars in this. Really surprised that Amy's car isn't getting more votes!
