  1. Point taken; to an extent. By that I mean the circumstances surrounding his death. He was emotionally unstable (like most Americans) and he was tanked up on Tequilla. He wasn't in a fit state to drive at 30mph. let alone 130mph. So to take this fatality and apply it to speeding across the board, I think is incorrect. Not that I condone speeding, I do not, though we all do it to some degree, but at the same time, the young man's case here is an exception. It wasn't so much "HOW" he was driving but "THAT" he was driving; I think there is a difference. Therefore, if one takes to driving under simialir circumstances as the young gentleman who suffered this fatality (which I seriously doubt), then it ought to serve as a wake up call. John
  2. Welcome mate! (actually, I have still to join) J
  3. Thanks mate! It's going in for service on Tuesay, so maybe they will tidy it up. J
  4. Been caught many times going the wrong way and never received any letters![A] And caught going the right way too, sadly, got letters on those occassions![]
  5. Yeah, so I see! And I have gone and wiped most of it off! J
  6. True: Jsut checked in my Road Angel manual. J
  7. So all this time I have been seeing your girlfriend in secret when all you cared about was your car!!!! []
  8. Hi there... very nice looking car - could it BE any more shiny?? John
  9. That's guys, now I feel like an a55 seeing that I wiped most of it off!!!! J
  10. Hi Folks Can any one help/advise me on the following issue? Had the 06 for about three weeks and after the first week I took a look at the engine compartment. To my surprise there was a thick greenish oily fluid splattered all over the top of my engine. I wiped most of this off without thinking as to what it might be. However, there is still plenty of it left (see pic). The insulation material that is attached to the inside of the bonnet is sodden with this fluid also. There is an unpleasant but very very slight odour from it and, at times when I use the air conditioning, it gives off a dreadful smell similar to this substance only much much stronger. Since I wiped it off, it hasn’t returned, so if there was some sort of leak, I’m sure it would have shown itself again. Any ideas? It’s due its 1k service on Tuesday and I intend to have it looked at, but would like a heads up seeing that I am clueless! Thanks John
  11. Yeah. I only had two left over but I have e-mailed a request for two more for the fronts so hopefully get that done soon. J
  12. Cheers Fraz Thanks for the offer, but I'm unlikey to be able to afford them at this very moment. If you want, you can PM me what you want for them and by the time you are ready to let them go, who knows. That will gimme time to work on the missus as she is of the mind that getting a new car with decals and flaps is quite enough! Woman! No idea! Well, except all the lovely ladies on here who drive Scoobs! John
  13. Thanks guys Had a couple of grapichs left over, so I stuck them on. I didn't fancy the white WRX ones that came with the flaps. J
  14. Took everyone's advice on the mud flaps and fitted them on Saturday. Does make a difference... Gold 18 ichers next! Well, might be a while!
  15. Welcome: Let's see some pics! J
