  1. Tried it. Amazed the first time on a really tough car. Less impressed the second time. Seemed to really loose the adhesion.
  2. ^^^^ Or sell it to me for 3k and I'll bother me arse to do it!
  3. It'll be a classic......fact. It's a raw and muscular (just how Dave likes them) looking car.....they always end up classics. It'll be a VERY long time though because honestly (sorry boys) it's rapidly becoming the chav car of choice. If Max Power and 'Cruises' were still in vogue it would be all over it.
  4. I never clicked with the single one I test drove which was a real shame because I still say its pound for pound the most beautiful car on the road.
  5. 60k ten years ago , what do u do í ½í¸³ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He's as high class mail escort
  6. Yes is called a self build and he payments are released in stages (land purchase, footings, wall plate, roof, fixtures and fittings etc)
  7. The 500 isn't even all that quick so I think the 350 might actually be a decent compromise. The 500 is almost worth forgetting given the lack of power but huge running costs. Suspension is a grand per corner on it so make sure it works all ok and doesn't sit pi**ed up because that means mega bucks repairs.
  8. I've seen enough people repossessed by living on the 'never never'........just remember when your looking at all these big houses with nice cars outside....all that glitters is not always gold.
  9. 862 feedback and one of the spazziest adverts I've ever read to sell what's probably a 7 grand car.
  10. Same here. Counselling opened my eyes to what was making me feel that way and not what I assumed was making me feel that way. Talking to mates etc is always a big help too. The main thing to remember....always.....is that is passes. Eventually everything comes to pass.
  11. I was going to suggest that I could wet sand it out if it was moderate but I'm not sure on that one. The crap could be masking damage to the paint or it could a dead easy polish off with compound. Number plate surround is toast though.
  12. No concourse queen but she's an absolutely awesome load lugger. Goes like a train and turns back 50+ to the gallon. We've give her a very comprehensive service including cleaning all of the inevitable derv gunk from the throttle body, egr and inlet manifold. Clean as a pin now and even has a happy little turbo whistle! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251556513093?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
  13. Piccies? Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  14. I had a look into the rigs. ....I mean 30oddK for slinging the bins! Who wouldn't right? As my mate said to me 'ricey.....your gonna be spending 6 months a year in a box with blokes who would be in prison if they were anywhere else.....and lets face it.....your a bit of a fanny'. He had a point! Ridonkulously hard to get into unless you have an inside contact and around 3k of courses to do before you can even be considered Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  15. Yip......I jibbed a 40k job in an office last year to clean cars and ferret about with bloody oil changes and brake discs (well with a short trip to Oz and NZ in the interim) Difference is I go to work with a mean stalk on every day now ......money's tight, moneys appreciated, 'things' have a new meaning again......the times they are good.

  16. Our mechanic said he's seen that maybe twice in his life. Utterly shattered to bits and the conrod was peeking out too! I can also confirm that pushing the zed up an incline is bloody hard work! Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  17. It'll pass mate........nothings as sure as that Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  18. My throat used to get so tight I actually struggled to swallow! Heaviness on the chest was a classic symptom too......as was shitting through the eye of a needle! Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  19. Clark motor sport, CS etc Eurocarparts are about £55 and £60 (left and right banks are different parts) Inc vat at a trade price if memory serves. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  20. Did the northwest one last year. Might do it again this year but depends on monies. Amazingly good fun! Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
  21. Maybe one in good condition. This one looks like it's been to hell and back!
  22. Here's what's left of the piston! The conrod was peeking out of his cage as well. Well and truly shat itself!
