  1. Im not sure how they can fix it permanetly ally but i know alot of the hilly roads round here that see plently of rain running down them usually benifit from alot of vegitation or forestry which deadens the force of heavy rain and slows down how fast it gets into tha water course.as well as that the root systems would help hold the soil together. i know its not a quick solution but its a simple one for them that wouldnt cost millions of £'s, i think they should plant it all with forestry or what ever and leave it there forever. there's not been any other slips further up or down the rest as there are trees etc so they must do something to help. they better have it sorted for the bbq run next year !!! they'll need to do something major about this streatch as it is the main artery road up here afects thousands of people,its a real bummer.
  2. tell me about this one too, everythings got an additional £25 charge on it coz iv got a PA postcode but live 60 miles from glasgow ON THE MAINLAND i could understand this if i lived on the isle of mull.....strange how it all works!!!!!!!

  8. mmm thank god he didnt own a scoob, as for his evo? looks like that would cost more than £2700 to put right
  9. Grant bud i feel for you mate. Ive just chucked in the towl as a Tesco store manager after 13 years loyal service without even as much as a day off sick.Im not even going to waste my breath talking about my manager as he knows they have bullied and harrassed me out a job over the course of the last 2 years. Get in touch with ACAS and also your union if you have one also seek legal advice from an employment law specialist, you can raise a grievance against the tw*t as your company should have some sort of disciplinary process. No matter how hard it is keep your cool mate and always make sure the ball is in your court. Make sure you have something to go to for definate especially in the current climate.Then you can always leave on good terms and with a parting shot. All i've ever done was work for Tescos so when people work for companies it hard to move on usually from jobs we found satisfying or rewarding and there are always emotional loyalties there. I made the biggest decission of my life so far telling these wan*ers to ram it and actually when all the stress is gone and things calm down you can really reflect,but honestly pal make sure you have other offers on the table even if it means enduring a bit more and applying for everything and anything as you can do anything you want too mate. Im the same didnt have a clue what else to do but career change im going to work for a builders merchants,but im determind to do it and make it work for me and the mrs to be. I'll never forget or forgive for the hastle we had and the way they made us feel especially leading up to our wedding in a couple of weeks time but there is always light at the end of the tunnel,keep your chin up.............and remember their day will come,what comes around goes around. www.acas.org.uk
  10. rozzers will go bush mate and probably give you plenty of points and a nice fine too,even worse you run the risk of an incident with a member of the public without your car being legal and plenty of sharp edges on display,just not worth the risk
  11. cheers but tahnks for the very handy link
  12. Hi all sorry need some help cant get logged into S.M.O.C. to post but im sure some of you guys will know the answer, the 5 speed box in my newly found sm is pretty noisy and im pretty sure its on its way out as there is plenty of fluid in it so its not dry.bugger.anyone know the box code off the top of their heads or box numbers that will fit it prob the easiest and cheapest thing to do is just swap in a new one, cheers John
  13. Its all just a joke time some of the giants that make billions of pounds of profit every year gave even just a little back to loyal customers....barrels you say, yes its us lot that they have got bent over a barrel!!!! ive heard the words scooby,conversion,lpg mentioned a few times recently by a couple of mates is it any wonder
  14. RB320 yesterday I passed it in stealth mode in the black mitsubishi outlander on the dual carrigeway at dumbarton heading for loch lommond,followed me for a while turned off up towards helensburgh. A while later passed me and several cars in front givin it the beans just goin into Inveraray,and when i got over the bridge and into town it was sitting at the public toilets!!! must have been dying for a pee!!! car looked minted,really clean and shiney not sure if its anyone on here??
  15. Oh man i nearly pissed myself laughin there that is exactly what i did when in milngavie when i ordered a couple of parts from them i couldnt get hold of!! i went up the stairs and out the front where there were a couple of blobeyes and returned with great glee they dont even know what plates they have sitting on their own forecourt for sale!!!! see ford have moved in there now too
  16. strip it roll cage it good base for rally or tarmac car!! seen plenty more lairy ones than this knocking about
  17. mmmm thats what i was just thinking! thought scoobs suffered from understeer and evos were the opposite with the old oversteer.........aaaaaah ive got it the scoobs been to Andy F and is totally kitted out with whiteline goodies nevermind the evo's probably teach a few supercar a lesson too!!!!
  18. Unlucky Cathy, i dont care what anyone says all these vans are for is a moneyspinner its not even the £60 quid at the end of the days its the stupid 3 points you get on your licence thats the real bummer...and then if you ever happened to get stopped by then police again and checked they always have that pejudice view of anyone driving a fast or fancy car is a criminal and hastle you for the least wee thing. suit the rozzers better to got out and catch real dangerous druggie scum criminals at the end of the day. if you had on a police uniform i bet you would have got away with it!!!!!!!!! they always seem to!!! im sure there was one that got away with doing close on 130 mph!!!! John

  20. my cars got a ppp under the bonnet look for the blue y pipe from the intercooler it will have prodrive on it,the car should have a centre section and backbox with prodrive stamped on the top of it,and the ecu will have been changed it should all come with a wr sport certificate to authenticate and also on the pillar at the drivers door there should be a sticker advising you to tell the insurance company that your engines had upgrades and the new bhp on it etc!!! all this should be acompanied with a nice big reciept for around £1500...as cal says mate also check with the dealer....prodrive unfortunately dont keep records of the cars but your local dealer should beable to hope this helps mate...cheers John
