  1. to be fair there was no less than at japshow at pod just parked cars and a bit of track i guess with maybe only 6-7 different models of car it got boring quicker, and im still adamant rockingham is a poor location for an event like this you cant see the track unless on a grand stand and from what i heard they were all locked up? the two areas are a good 10 minutes walk away from each other
  2. seems alot of people on facebook not very happy with the event, granted i didnt get chance to have a look about but it was all fun in the outer paddock
  3. think what a MK1 escort RS is worth now, highly possible that a mk1 focus Rs could do the same
  4. Another car that falls into the " I wish I had kept it category"! i wish i bought it instead of the Z kinda back in 2012 i could get one for around 6-8k now for a clean one as above your heading towards 20k
  5. Keep it mint and watch the money poor in in a few years http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Focus-RS-2-0T-MK1-270bhp-53-/252445983606?hash=item3ac6f40376:g:j24AAOSwZ1BXen-W
  6. £225 is an absolute steal for these.I'd just buy them at that price to sell them on closer to Winter. Bradders, hold onto that price, You've got the cheapest set for Sale at the moment. Update your thread title with the price, so google searches will show up. shut up grundy Bradders if yoru doing nisshow i will more than likely have these off you
  7. just an update for anyone who gets the problem and searches in the future, the jubilee clip on the intake had backed off and was allowing a small air leak between the silicone hose and hard pipe of the intake
  8. Just to note i was taking messages whilst Tarmac had no access to the forum any future messages please send to him
  9. Roadkill is now on Netflix too
  10. also i like '... on one of the most dangerous stretches of the M56.' as if had she been doing it 20 miles ago there would be nothing to worry about
  11. i bet if it was the a holy book for other faiths it would be allowed like having no hard hat as your have a turban
  12. could be a cool base for a drift car get it slap a LSX in jobs a good'un
  13. joys of that are its at the choice of the tester
  14. could be worse what state is the other side in is just front bumper and suspension?
  15. pretty sure this thread was for the 2015 show so i dont think anything has been done about the 2016 show
  16. "Where a car has been extensively modified or converted, certain Reasons for Rejection such as 'components missing where fitted as standard' should not be applied, for example: A car converted for rally use (i.e. rear seats removed and fitted with a roll cage and full harness seatbelts etc) may have been converted so as not to require a brake servo, power steering or airbags. VOSA says it is expected that modifications to cars converted for track or rally use will be permanent and readily identifiable, and wouldn't include those where an airbag has been disconnected for "occasional" off-road use, for instance. We're also told fixed drivers' seats are acceptable in any vehicle provided the adjusting mechanism has been removed and the seat is now clearly a fixed seat in one position. Simply removing the adjuster lever or locking it in one position won't be acceptable for an MOT. http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1130476
  17. Interesting i wonder how modern rally cars like the fiestas and ds3 that have to be road legal get by it although just thinking about it rally cars dont tend to last the first 3 years of life so would never need a MOT bit unfair
  18. odd as i cant find any newer info on it, it should have been a pass and advise as unless they removed the wheel to prove no airbag was present they cant just assume and there not allowed to remove anything to check it must be tested as its presented unless it was an OEM wheel with the airbag clearly gone and wires hanging out should be a pass and advise.
  19. Don't get an SE the seats are really crap!! i would be swapping them out for a nice set of pole position recaros anyway if it was me
  20. did you have an airbag warning light on?
  21. infact trade link has a coupe Z4 with the 265bhp engine maybe a deal could be done http://www.autotrade...gcode=p&adPos=4
