  1. This is not the end This is not the beginning of the end But It is perhaps the end of the beginning Bill Churchill..........remember that in your own context and you'll not go far wrong Well either that or you'll storm Berlin

    My Supra

    I love it but that is a lot of dollar man!
  3. Tell you what clown....you make some proper dull vistas look awe inspiring!
  4. Hey totally.....I don't have any kids at the end of the day so I'm probably more blasé about it. I just think we worry far too much these days......I mean put it in context: - 4 year old in the car your scared to death and strapping them into all sorts of contraptions. - 7 year old in the car no ones bothered. - 17 year old in the car you make them drive you home when your pi**ed. I'm not convinced a car seat isn't doing much that a child seat is. How old is 4 years old these days anyway? Are they smoking by that age yet?
  5. Just think about the moment though.......you've just cleaned out 17 people and you don't know if anyone is dead, if there are kids.......I I couldn't get out of the car, I'd just go comatose I think!

    Exhaust based dilema

    Whole hog and then when the K1 is off have it smelted in a local steel works to ensure that it never defiles another car again
  7. You can turn it off but there are no isofix anchors. 4 year old? Just belt them in and let em live a little. Fook me I was sat on a cushion in my dads XR3i and that was 83% rust!
  8. Wackywill has just posted the same thing. What a fricking cretin
  9. I'm surprised the dick didn't get lynched
  10. For anyone wondering - you just need a 10 quid K&N filter charger to clean it............maybe a can of compressed air (like a keyboard duster) if you're feeling really saucy.

    VIP CARS (aristo)

    Very cool (despite our protestations in the for sale thread)

    Holy sex wee batman! Me likely. Give the extensive mod list dare we ask what the damage was?

    VIP BLING.

    See I'm using nylon and Velcro at the minute and whilst it works well from a restraint perspective it can chaff the user quite nastily. Might have to get these and try and different material.
  14. Unfortunately you don't meet see rules to post a for sale thread but in all honesty if you advertise it on PH or Autotrader then someone's going to find it if they're looking for a zed anyway.

    VIP BLING.

    http://www.junctionvip.com/jupr.html Quite simply the oddest selection of stuff I've ever seen available for a car! Fricking tie backs for car curtains?!? WTF!
  16. Its only money making if you take longer than 2 weeks to come back, and if your in that time frame they just check the fail parts not the whole test. Aye presuming that they've not subsequently tapped you up to do the work to get the car through the mot
  17. she's still taking the **** out of me now. I bumped into my uncle at the hospital and his words were 'you are a total wally aren't you?'..........he didn't even stop walking.....just said that as he was walking passed and carried on into the ward. Git
  18. No curveball there - just common sense. Nice looking, comfy as hell, good spec, nice interior, Mazda reliability. Good shout.
  19. If your gonna be dumb..........you gotta be tough :wink:
  20. you could try zmanalex.........he'll probably get them to you in about 12 minutes or some such lunacy. You could even get him to send them direct to the garage.
  21. 'Our' is a very Northern thing. Specifically we use 'Our Kid' round my neck of the woods although to be fair I think thats a scouseism that we've adopted.
  22. I did but most significantly I spent fricking weeks chewing Dblock and Biscuits ears off........summarily ignored their advice (including Dblocks very specific advice regarding the very same problem that killed the car) and went and bought a 60k car for 5k..........blind. Mercs of that era can be a little shoddy but if you do your homework you can avoid experiances like mine. Basically I'm a dick. Lol. It's all experience at the end of the day. I personally really like Mercs and BMWs for mile munching. But a complicated one with everything in it would have been £60k and over so when they break they are expensive. Had that car not had that specific issue I still believe I would be smiling away now with a V8 grumble behind me. Unfortunately as with most things 'Ricey' I insist on learning the hard way!
