  1. Yeah... in Florida (at this time of the year) a convertible is a crazy idea due to the afternoon rain. Plus it is really TOO hot for the hood down in the mornings! They had a few coupe Mustangs... which I suppose it a decent compromise...
  2. Presume this is a repost?
  3. Anyone seen this? http://mapofmetal.com/ Quality for when you are somewhere online with no tunez to hand (like at your folks or something)
  4. Loads.... viewtopic.php?f=26&t=4263&hilit=rear+strut+paint
  5. At the time, I was only concerned with helping Sky... and I never saw the driver again... which is probably a good thing.
  6. Pet plan paid for (and STILL pays for) all the bills I had for Sky. Which got close to £5K... http://jameshardacre.com/skynews/skyaccidentp.html
  7. I totally agree http://jameshardacre.com/skynews/skyaccidentp.html
  8. Any info on the rear Plate LED's? Love the look of them... where do I get some from?
  9. Indeed it is Dan... with the Rip Ride Rocket thingy in the back-ground. There were 5 motors from the film.... not really any info with them at all... and I thought the Zed looked awful myself. But I am not a big fan of that look. (although the alloys were pretty nice)
  10. The Starwars ride is OK... wasn't massivley impressed... but then I am not a big Star Wars fan to be honest. Oh and you don't get FREE beer anymore. but I do highly recommend the "sunset" tours at Bush Gardens. They take you out for the tour on an open back truck to do things like feed the giraffes... and there IS beer on that truck Yeah, spotted them on Universal... but I didn't have my camera with me! Universal IS THE BEST! Plus Islands of Adventure. Have fun!!!! AND BUY THE FAST PASSES... WELL worth it Nope, it is in front of the Old Skool Dinner in Universal. Went down into Kissimee and was pretty un-impressed to be honest.
  11. My hand brake is right at the top of its "travel" and isn't really holding the car MOT is coming up, so I thought I better have a go at sorting it myself. Had a quick look at the adjuster on teh handbrake itself and it seems to be as far "up" as it can go. SO... BEFORE I try to adjust it at the rears, should I slack it off at the hand brake? So I have more to adjust in the future? And if I do/dont.... do I just follo this ...
  12. Agreed.... not a muscle car at all... at least the SXT isn't!
  13. HA HA ... no rush bud. Interested to know if you have any luck though
  14. GOTTA drive better than the Charger.... it was like driving a bowl of soup! And the TCS was crazy didn't seem to kick in at all...and when it "did" I swear it just flashed a light on the dash and did nothing else! Sitting at lights on an up-slope, in the pouring rain.... took me 10 seconds to pull off. but that could have just been the awful tyres.
  15. Didn't get to speak to the lady driving... but it was stock and I am pretty sure she wasn't that fussed about her offsets
  16. Interesting that. Seen a few Thrifty/Dollar locations and never seen anything like that. Avis/Hertz have a few Camaros on book. It's especially strange given the fact that you can't even book anything remotely like a Camaro online - if they offered it up, that could have been the bargain of the century! I had been awake for 26 hours by then.... Shouldn't have really driven the hour on the wrong side of the road in the awful motor in the rain to the villa really. but nevermind! Yeah, should have snapped her hand off... but I was all screwed up in the head at the time
  17. Cruizing about we spotted LOADS in Orlando. Mostly white. Spotted THREE white ones within an hour on the I4. Two coupes and one convertible. Didn't see one parked up (which is a shame as I DID take a few spotted cards with me!) but we saw this nice colour one and Tam managed to grab a few pics..
  18. There was DEFO a Camaro... As we left the car park there was a Dollar Stand (Orlando Int) with a lovely black one on, with BIG deep dish alloys on it. Colour coded. Bugger Will just have to go again next year
  19. No Challengers at Dollar. Choice was Charger or Camaro. but she didn't actually say "Camaro" ... she just said "Or a Chevy"

    My New Car

    Cleaned her up yet? Any piccys?
  21. You GOTTA tell us what the plate is.... as you have wiped it off the pics.. (LOVIN' the cube BTW... not sure about the seats, but I guess they work better in the flesh)
