  1. I think everythings been said, but still, it must be terrible for you to have looked out in the morning and set your eyes on that. Hope they castrate the barstards. Hope it gets sorted soon dude
  2. No way!!!!!! At my local shell (coleford, glos) its 120.9!!! Still!!!! It only got dropped from 126.9 about 2 weeks ago!
  3. My dads the policy holder, with myself and my mum as named, but i do more driving of the car than my parents (dads driven it twice, mum hasnt got round to it yet, they're both in their 50s!), so im down as the main driver or something like that! I dont know how it works, Dad sorted it out, i just pay it and drive the car, i leave the complicated bits to the parents!
  4. yeh well it was the only sensible way to do it, and im still down as the main driver
  5. £1186 with NFU, parents policy, me as main driver, fully comp next best quote was £2700!!!
  6. I dont like saying it because in most places as soon as people know my age im totally disregarded! 18!
  7. As the title really! Just bought some RB5 wheels (pics in the general discussion area) and ones got a slight flat in the rim....meaning probably an mot failure, and was wondering if anyone knew anywhere where i could get it done? Cheers guys
  8. Cheers emoe So does anyone know of anywhere within gloucestershire/herefordshire/monmouthshire that could sort it??!
  9. Just picked these up today from Chris Palmer Autos in Bristol and put them on the car, got a bit of a bargain on them from fleabay and i needed new tyres so got these instead! Before: After: What dyou think?? Also, one of the alloys has a slight flat spot in the rim, tyre still sits ok but id still like to get the flat out, is there any way i can do it myself or is there someone in the south west england/wales area that can get the flat out for me?? I'm missing a centre cap too, so got to order another from the main dealers. Oh, and the car could do with a wash (even though its only been about 20miles since the last one!) thats what living in a forest does! Cheers guys
  10. coolio, will give the stealers a ring tomorrow. Apparently the P1 caps fit, so i can always use them if i cant get the RB5 ones!
  11. Just bought some RB5 wheels without the centre caps and just wondering if anyone knows where i can get some from??! Cheers
  12. Yep, i spent a month in france (Gramat, in the Lot), and saw one really nice hawkeye with french plates who lived pretty close to where we were, and always flashed and waved, but that was it though! Not even on the ferry back! Its quite fun in a wagon though, it seemed even more of a rarity! It was quite normal to park up in town and come back to a small gathering of people around the car! And as for the overtaking....yeh they do seem to be totally mental about overtaking you, around blind bends and summits in 70kph (43mph) limits!
  13. I wave at all the scoobys i see about.......but not many wave back! normally give a flash and a wave but 70ish% of the time its greeted by someone looking confused! but its a great feeling when you get a wave back Got a wave from a french 08 in france.....that made me feel special
  14. RIP Such a shame My thoughts are with his family and friends
  15. Might just have to do that Its funny for me coz im abouts half way between the welsh meets and the swindon ones! Il try and get to swindon at some point!
  16. Looking at going for the E-manage as a piggy back for my ECU on my MY00 turbo 2000.... Just wondering if anyone has any experience with it and if its any good...? Also, is it worth going for the ultimate? Cheers
  17. Been on here a while...but... Just wondering if theres anyone else on here from around the area! Im in the Forest of Dean, near Coleford...
  18. Normal wont cause probs (i dont think). Iv used normal petrol once in my car, i was going to run out otherwise! But normally its Vpower which i think is 99ron. Tesco do a 99ron premium aswell which might be good. something above 97ron i reckon.
  19. Wondering which parameters are picked up by these from an Impreza ECU... My cars a MY00 Classic...but any response would be cool! I dont want to spend out when not that much will be picked up! Cheers
  20. Just wondering if anyones got one of the Greddy Intelligent informeters and what they're like as the Greddy website doesnt give a too great description! Do they just plug into the OBD2 port under the steering column...?? if so, does it power itself through the OBD2 port? and will they show error codes??! Cheers
  21. Thanks everyone Looks like im ok then....just cant wait to get down through france now!
  22. Its my first scoob so im not sure....but after starting, if you give the car 5 mins, the temp guage is in the normal running temp range....which is wierd cos with all the other cars i've had, it takes a fair bit of driving before it gets warm.... might be totally normal, but want to check as im driving down to Toulouse in a couple of weeks time, and dont want the car to overheat or anything. Its been fine pottering about but the furthest its been since i've had it is up to work (about 5 miles) and hasnt been given any beans yet.... Cheers
  23. what about the laws on getting a small number plate for the front of my MY00 classic, to fit on the small number plate region on the bumper?
