Hightower

i get to the shell borstone in stirling and if i am lucky might make it to the shell at springkerse in stirling before a top up required. mind you i take the scenic route out by callender etc. before coming back

i never thought that there would be any difference so never used the 99ron fuel in my civic type-r (reccomended 95) the wife put in optimax and never told me. i was in the car the next day and was thinking to myself fook me pulling alot better and alot more responsive came home and mentioned it she told my that she had put it in. needless to say i was sold. so i pretty sure no problem in using it. i have no choice now as the wr1 is 97ron minimun there was a test(i think it was 5th gear) optimax/vpower came out on top if i remember

dude, i had the same problem yesterday!!! my vac line plug had come off and brought the fault light in. i put a temp vac plug on and took it to hypertech this afternoon and just needed a reset spot on! going to take out the t-piece and put on a straight through pipe on tomorrows task of the day

i have an HKS SSQV on my wr1 love the sound higher pitched, i got mine on ebay. no problem at all to fit. 10min and that was with a bit of a pain in getting the old pipe off.

the rig shift is not for the JW maclean is it near the triton platform, as when i left there was a rig shift going to happen around this time.

brings back memories, i used to be on anchor handlers. now a rig pig CCRO on a platform, hope you have a safe trip i am going back on the 30th so missing new year not as good these days anyway

just checked bristows, they are flying o

is the airport in aberdeen shut,??? i am dude away the 30th but there was a crew change due today with bristows

i have had dealings with nationwide in larbert before and there price is astronomically higher than most places for repairs and to be honest the work they did was not great. if i were you i would push to get the car written off as anything on the engine has gone slightly wrong and it had been driven, not worth the risk dude. i would say you could get it reparied for half if not less that they have quoted as they are shocking.(less if you can source the panels damaged from somewhere other than the main dealer) as i know that larbert deal with S&S subaru in ayr for there subaru parts as one of my mates had some stuff done there via there insurance and was back several times getting things re-done. i would get the money from the insurance then buy your impreza back from them and repair it yourself. and you will be up a couple of grand and have the car you already have, it will be worth less when you come to sell it as will be on a VCAR worth bearing in mind if the worth of car/price insurance company want/ repairs/ then resale make it worth while. hope you get it all sorted out dude

although there are variations throughout the garages the main reason petrol is so high os because of the economy, it is an easy stealth tax. most folk know nothing of the price os oil or the dollor exchange rate etc. so just put it down to that. petrol will go up 2.5-3 pence on january 1st as vat goes back to 17.5%. the goverment are using the extra billions from taxing fuel to pay for there F*^k ups and the banks failure of common sense, lets give shed loads of money to people with no money, then ask them to pay it back Eh? clueless, prepare to pay alot more for fuel in the future as they will alos use the excuse that it is helping to pay for green wind turbines and tree hugging hippys to play in the snow. as most folk with common sense know global warming is a con something for the world to worry about after the cold war. all the shocking figures are cooked to make it look bad,( they say 1998 was the warmest year on record (it was actually 1934)) and the ice age 10000 years ago happend because china was building a powerstation a week.............a load of rubbish. china emits more CO2 in a day that we do in a year, so why bother. came of the point but rant over!!!

yea this has had a fair old slating on the wr1oc what a waste of a good car.

we managed to get into the restricted service area so got right up to the cars, even offered us a burger as they thought we were part of a team. showed the hidden side to rallying ............dark, bloody wet, underneath a muddy car still dripping changing out parts. but still smiling.....ace. i flashed a rake of scoobs that were going about...i was in the wr1

one of the guys at my work did it a few years ago went to trade his celica gt for a 5 series bmw. he told the salesman what the car was he gave them a price and he instantly twigged what had happened but said nothing. (priced a gt4) did the deal... then he came offshore and his wife went up to pick up the car and they would not give it to her unless she paid 2500 quid more. she called the rig, a quick call to there solicitor. solicitor made call to dealer, dealer called his wife asking what time is best to have the car delivered.......nice one. he went back in to that dealer to change his 5 series about 18 months later and spoke to the salesman that did the deal and he had a poster on the wall of his office. I HATE CELICAS. surprisingly he was not offered that good a deal so went somewhere else to get his next car. class!!

as performance will sort you out good folk

p1??

the lots of trouble usually serious came from a guy i was in college with, his old man had bought one and in the first 12 months of ownership it spent 9 months with the dealer attempting to fix problems............. fair play he got a complete refund!

i thought that lotus stood for Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious

test drive one!!!!! i bought my one after 200yards!!!! fecking amazing 2 years later i can think of no other car i would change it to.

i think i am going to put in a few more fixings although it has held up to 170 odd really good makes the front end look a bit meaner as well

looks like HT autos. really good value and if you tap the kerb it sticks out so protects the cars main bodywork!

what is the average price to do a set of wheels? i was thinking of getting mine done black

mint car dude but i am also biased first time i have seen one with white wheels looks good thats a hell of a good price to get that for!!!! i have a set of OZ ultralegerras that i put on in the summer (as they are a pain to keep shiny) if you want the prodrives there are always sets going somewhere. i am thinking of getting my pff 7s powdercoated black to bring out the brake colour a bit.

anyone at the doune hill climb the day, i went up early afternoon and some very nice metal giving it beans. cracking day for it perfect weather!!

jesus, thats terrible!!!! really sorry to hear, i really hope you luck changes

its also great for removing/preventing hydrates we use it offshore
