  1. haha yeah , but then there's also L555 BAW too... that one I like also... So tempted...
  2. been posted a few times now...
  3. Aye that's jim doing things in halves again then!!! See Stephen, we ALL agree, well except Oobster, but then he's just weirdy*, you should keep the car, theres no point in selling anyways for all you'll get... Hope this answers your question... * this may not be true** ** but then it might just be...
  4. they are lush! love those! but whether I would put them in this car... Probably not... (I'd probably get killed for that one! )
  5. Aye, Well Done!
  6. You mean they have not picked up the SpecG yet mate? I though that they did that weeks ago!!!
  7. it makes you a very bad person, and i don't mean that in a good way... You'll only regret it...
  8. also... This is probably the handiest windows tool in the world ever. no more resizing each individual picture one by one in photoshop. nope, Batch resize is right here! http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/d...eschelman2.mspx but then does uploading to photobucket automatically resize pics? because even then, they will just look crap, and take an age to load at that big size... its ALWAYS best to resize before you put them online... (Flickr will actually resize as you upload if you use the uploader tool)
  9. Mmmm I do fancy doing the Grille badge... was same mind as you, to do the saltire, but now seeing it mica Red... job for laters anyways... Also been pondering HIDs for a long time, Might get round to that one at some point too.... You mind me asking how much you payed for yours? I dont imagine that they would be massively different to the set for the classic fitment...
  10. not the first time that ive seen that though... but I cannot for the life of me remember who it was... but a LOT of years ago, there was a driver who did the same, but his bonnet was reverse hinged I seem to remember... might have been an audi, possibly lancia...? cant really remember now, but it was a very impressive picture... Cant seem to find it at the moment... perhaps someone else has seen it and can confirm that I'm not just going out of my mnd...
  11. The problems with suspension is with pretty much all "newage" models, (bugeye, Blobeye, and Hawkeye shapes) from 2001 onwards... there would appear that the quality of the rear shocks are not up to standard, and its common that they have to be replaced on warranty. some have reported having to have them replaced multiple times, there is however, apparently a new shock that is supposed to stop these problems happening... but I don't know much about that. the common thing, I think (as I drive a classic), is a Knock when you are pulling away from traffic lights... if you are in any doubt, I'd recommend that you take the car to an authorised dealer to get checked, as your car fits in to that age bracket... And "member scooby222" is no "Scoobie master", he just enjoys a spirited drive in the countryside... as do we all...
  12. Good to hear that they are replacing them on spec, to be honest, I would have been very surprised if they did not, as that's a very premature failure... no matter what the road surface... ION - Hope your are ok Ciaran!!!!!!
  13. don't think that he comes on very often anymore... You have goat...
  14. Ha! Dont tempt him John, else I imagine there will be big trouble in little china!
  15. Wont make it this year, Almost certainly going to be working all of December this year... Have a good one!
  16. They scrubbed... that's surprising... newages should be able to take 18"s with no problems... you still on standard suspension?
  17. Yeah but makes for a more fun drive!
  18. I also Hear that S&S Ayr are very much worth the journey...
  19. Yes Al, the Discount is still there at T&C as long as you show your card! Ive been in since they stopped, and to be honest nothing really had changed... they were just waiting to have the Suabru stock picked up then, so I dont know what the place is like now...
  20. thats gennerally when I put my fog lights on... 1. When someone else is sitting behind me with them/highbeam on. - the normally get pissed off and turn them off. 2. The fronts might go on if the condiditons are poor HEAVY RAIN/snow... 3. If they are tailgating me and they have had a chance to overtake me - I'll also check that my Brakes are working too, if the Fogs dont work. if someone is coming towards me with the fronts on, when they are not needed, I just leave my main beams on till they get the hint... Its just antisocial innit... For me, its definitely one of the things that takes the joy away from driving...
  21. Ah saw this like a week or so ago... its pretty **** like... The cars a write off... Harsh, very harsh...
  22. Oh wow... I cant believe the nerve of some people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, what is it they expect? that everything is their right? that everything should be just handed to them on a plate???? Makes me sick... I just cannot believe that after all the hard work that you guys went through to make this happen, and some people are this selfish that they need to be like that...
  23. And with wetherspoons and Baileys to choose from, Do you really WANT to go out!!!! pmsl But yeah... I have to say, that Ive not seen any threads deleted because of Dunk (unless they have been deleted that quickly)... I have seen threads deleted because of you though Iain, a few times...
