  1. Thieving scum get what they deserve in my book.
  2. Was at that bank today to fill out some forms and apparently its happening alot these days because of the 'credit crisis'! Its the total invasion of privacy that frightens me.
  3. Got a call yesterday from my banks fraud department asking about transactions made by my card on that day. Turns out some low life bought a Stagecoach ticket for £6.60 then tried to fleece me of £754 then attempted £350 for some catalogue! Hats of to the bank for acting so quick but how do the scum bags get your details in the first place as I am always careful where I use my cards.
  4. I agree with JW F1 is much better so far this season - i.e. overtaking! I also like Button/Brawn showing up the rest of the field.
  5. Cheers for the input guys. The bike forum I'm on recommend Cupar and Saltire (in Edinburgh) but was looking for something a bit closer to home.
  6. Look harder then! I ride everyday and you won't believe the amount of idiots that try and pull out of junctions without paying enough attention. As road users we all have to look out for each other, its not a bike vs car thing. Taking my DAS was the best thing I've done and shows up how complacent we all get after driving for years.
  7. As I'm new to bikes I'm testing the water with dealers for parts and knowledge. I recently done a service on the bike myself and bought the parts from MO. All the parts were in stock and found the guy (think it was one of the brothers) very helpful. Went to JA for tyres purely for price. I had noticed the chain had a couple of tight links in it and thought they would have picked up on it and advise me but they never. JA seems like its organised chaos and a bit back street garage but seems to be very busy. My bike is booked into MO for a new chain and sprockets so I'll see how they fair. Next year I'm aiming to buy a brand new GSX R and would like to stick with the dealer that I buy it from for the servicing and any warranty work etc. I prefer to stick with main dealers for OEM parts etc.
  8. I love the Saloon version. Very nice indeed.
  9. Only the 4 hours, must have been a half shift then! Looking good mate. As for the tyre dressing, I'm finding Meguiars Endurance Gel a good product
  10. Never mind the driving what about the OCD (Obsessive Cleaning Disorder)! Joking apart, all the best mate.
  11. Great 1st race, plenty of overtaking and exciting finish. Well done to Brawn and Button.
  12. Has anyone had good/bad experiences with Jim Allen in Falkirk or Mickey Oates in Glasgow? Any info much appreciated Cheers Colin
  13. The WR1 is a nice Special Edition, check it over well then take it from there mate. As long as your getting a fair price for your car go for it.
  14. A GB270 is a Special Edition - keep it special, leave the decals off.
  15. The best quote of the article..... FOR MORE INFO CONTACT MARK! Secrets out mate.
  16. IMO the speakers are more important than the stereo. The rear doors on a blob saloon are a bit of a nightmare for fitting larger speakers plus the positioning of them is not great. Go for a good set of components up front and a small amp. You will have to fit adaptors (MDF) to fit these and be careful that the windows can still pass the magnet when fitting larger speakers. If you are buying online go into Halfrauds first and have a listen to their selection. I have an Alpine HU thats made for iPod (displays artwork etc) so it has no CD player only radio and iPod/USB connection and Infinity speakers. I reckon with £500 you could a great professional install or DIY with your budget.
  17. Nice car Gail, enjoy! Welcome to the club. Colin
  18. Why do people do this?????????? Jealousy? For a kick? Gutted for you mate.
  19. Marcus in an Impreza will be an exciting prospect. Good luck to him.
  20. Looking good Shelly, coming along nicely. Only thing I'm not sure of is the spacing of the SUBARU letters.
  21. Hello and welcome mate. Car looks a good example. Enjoy.
  22. Cheers mate. Contemplating selling it but only for the right price. It's had more attention than the Mrs!
