Sorry to hear about the breakup dude but onwards and upwards! Look forward to the build

Sounds likes it's been well looked after :/ As above....how much?

Another vote for bjj , have also capoeira and a bit of karate in my time

Open a forex trading account and double that money

Skyrim is one of the best games ever.....on any platform! I'd recommend witcher 2 as well

Time for you to get a new phone chap, iphone 4 is 4 years old, can't expect Apple (or google for that matter) to stop advances in functionality due to hardware limitations

That's my only criticism of the diesel lump, needs a good run up for any sort of incline, although I have to say I'm impressed with the power delivery as I expected a lot worse from a nearly 20yr old auto box! You would be correct regarding the bushes, seems to be very common!

Also picked up a full service kit so we can give it a good flush through of fluids along with two new front tyres as they are both looking a tad tired with cracking etc

Yep been averaging around the 20 mark for round town but was happy with the return on the journey back from Southampton, sat at 70 easily and was happy hitting 90 How did you find the two compared as a driving experience? We went for the 2.0td in the end!

100% agree!

Ok so long story short this was an early wedding present for my best mate....best bit is he hasn't actually passed his test yet so I'm stuck chauffeuring him around Anyway. The idea behind the largo was so that when doing our various mountain bike, surf trip and wild camps we would have something a bit more practical than my skyline 350gt and honda civic (albeit both excellent cars) to choose from. The main requirements were space, reasonable economy and a good solid engine The largo ticked all the boxes and me and my best fiancée picked this little project up from Southampton a week or two ago First things first a good clean both inside and out Then onto a couple of other small jobs; Heatgun and repair where possible some of the vinyl wrap The alloys are in a pretty poor state so I'll tackle that at some point in the near future however I did wire brush the rear drums and paint the centre caps black I picked up a set of side skirts which we intend to spray gloss black so I rubbed then down, filled in the worst of the damage and primed them ready for spraying at some point in the near future A few little other niggles to sort out, stripped down the drivers door and sorted the dodgy speaker, now audio plays throughout the van keeping an eye on eBay and will probably fit a cheap amp/sub combo

It seems some people have good experiences and some people have bad experiences with dealerships, for me anywhere that deems the 370 as a specialist car sets alarm bells ringing! My own Nissan dealer (fish brothers) are beyond useless and have demonstrated nothing but complete incompetence when I've enquired about anything.... For me Id rather go to a well respected Indy who deals with performance cars and has a solid reputation, for me that's performance autoworks in fairford, the guys are experienced, race in the VTEC series and look after cars way more impressive than mine. I've used them on all the cars I own and would never dream off going elsewhere! Just my two cents

Welcome dude, just down the road in Swindon

Rays turned out great dude, i personally love the white ones

What about one of the older Jag XF sv8, comes within budget and ticks all the boxes?

Yep you can shave the infiniti g35 battery cover down to fit or go custom, I'll post a pic of mine

Looks good dude, you need a master cylinder cover too

Milo aka the baby lol
