yes but it makes you feel better about yourself

got my fingers crossed for you mate

how's your motor going still going well

[edmondo]

hey its a formula thats worked for years for me

cheers - heres hoping

yeah touch wood mate.............want a job so I can do some work on her

[gaunty]

need to work on mine the exhaust is blowing and it needs a service

[edmondo]

blowing? - is that cos you scraped it?..............................where you taking it to for the service then?

[gaunty]

yeah i can hear it when it pops and it has a slight chuffing sound even though it popped so loud i nearly left via the sun roof

going to get my cousin to service it for me he does his so he can do mine

[edmondo]

dont you love it when that happens...................came past the Sun Inn one Sunday afternoon it banged so loud the whole underside shook..........It was like a cannon going off - dread to think how big that flame was

its always good to know someone who can service for you - saves £££££ to spend on other things

[gaunty]

oh i really love it when that happens that look of shock when it does it when you drive past people

yeah he has saved me loads of ££££ in the past

[edmondo]

I know..................started lifting off under that short tunnel by the Railway Station - not quite timed it right for it to go bang whilst I am in there

my young un works for Hi Q so he does my services , tyres , Brakes etc

[gaunty]

i got it to do it by mistake and got called a few names my other half just looked at me a tutted which made it even better

its great when you can get it done on the cheap makes it feel alot better

[edmondo]

she wouldnt last 5 mins behind me then

yep.............it would have cost me a small fortune........plus having Big D around as well really helps

[gaunty]

i know i was trying to tell her mines loud but yours is just nut's and pops and bangs from start till finish (i might have said that i may want one a few times)

Big d is fantastic i think he knows more about subaru's than subaru do

[edmondo]

I know...................she even did that with all the cats in but once they came out I couldnt beleive how loud she was and I am still gutted at missing the huge flame at DSA - and Jacqui has seen the flames from the front passenger seat

He is a bloomin star and such a nice guy to go with it as well..............

[gaunty]

how come you exhaust does that never heard another exhaust do that

i know he trys to help every one

[edmondo]

Its gotta be the Nur Spec Back Box - fit a family of Albanians in there - plus they would get central heating and cooking facilities as well

I know - at Action Day when he was meant to be relaxing he sorted 5 cars out

[gaunty]

i want my exhaust to do that even though the lad over the road came over today and said i woke him up to which i said so you love it and walked off

Bloody hell the mans a god

[edmondo]

I love it in the Summer when we have to set off early for shows............so I fire her up at 6.30am whilst everyone has their windows only ...........I used to let her warm up before pulling off but I think I was beginning to push my luck

Thats why we call him the Guru

[gaunty]

yeah i think if i let her warm up it will end up being nicked to shut it up

[edmondo]

yep gotta keep her under 2.5k revs so we almost always go to Tesco Express so I can leave her running

[gaunty]

i leave it when i get to work as i dont have to live there

[edmondo]

so its not even warmed up by the time you get to work then?...................I bet you go via the Railway Station dont you

[gaunty]

i go via every bridge i can yes i am a 14 year old stuck in a 28 year olds body

and no the water temp is up but the oil at a guess is not so i drive it with kid gloves

[edmondo]

thats a bad turn of phrase - but I know what you mean

my favourite is Rodbourne Road

[gaunty]

escot hill in 2nd gear pops and bangs all the way down

[edmondo]

you reckon? - I have asked the voices for their opinion and they keep telling me to get the matches

Marlborough Road from Old Town to Coate Water roundabout - just cruise down in 4th.........pop burble bang burble pop pop

[gaunty]
