<< It would take ages for me to thumbnail them like the earlier pics. >> Get yourself a copy of this. Best piece of software I've ever bought. 30 day eval: http://www.digitaldutch.com/arles/

<< No complaints with my Bridgetone Potenza RE050s, but I've never driven a performance car before. Have to say though, I've done 10500 miles so far and with the exception of the shoulder of the passenger side front tyre (KH Track day damage, IT WAS MELTING!) they are still in fantastic condition and should have plenty of miles left. I don't push my car to the limits on the road, but I don't hang about either. >> That's what's on mine. From new I'm having to replace them now at 22,000. Like you I don't overpush, but don't hang about. Ordered a set of F1's from Jim today. £356 fitted.

<< Some pics of my car from car park- kits are not everyone cup of tea but I like it >> Photo No.3 - That seagull looks like he's on a bombing run

Top pics of some top motors. Thanks for sharing.

Just a thought - I think it's really obvious where your pics were taken Fee and if I recognise it then there's nowt to say some thieving scumbag who happens to peruse these forums (which I'm sure they do looking for targets and personal info) won't too. It's a gorgeous motor and Id hate to see it nicked.

Excellent! Want one, but suspect the cost of replacing tyres would be a bit on the expensive side!

Cheers guys. James - I may PM you. Just a bit skint at the mo due to Inland Revenue buggers chasing me. Stephen - thanks for that. I think I pass you almost every day on the K bridge or thereabouts. I'll make a point to wave next time

I am a twat. Trying to find an office in the New Town in Edinburger today I went down a lane a bit too narrow and although I didn't hear any scrapy noises it looks like I scraped the driver side rear end. Gutted my baby has been defaced. Definitely too deep to polish out. Any recommendations for somebody to fix in Central?

From the outside and not being part of the in-crowd that is so apparent on here, but having paid my membership and feeling I have a right to speak... Girl appears. Posts avatar. Pretty damn cute. Interweb - you can be who you want to be. I could post an avatar of Brad Pitt. Okay everybody knows Brad Pitt and would assume I was gay and fancied him, but you get my drift. You could have a face like a bulldog licking piss off a nettle, but post a random pic of somebody cute and folk have no choice but to take you at face value. The web is full of trolls and that makes folk suspicious. If you're genuine then good on you. If you're trolling then......why???

From today's Scotsman: The longest continuous speed trap in Britain is to be launched this week, it has emerged. The system measures the time it takes cars to travel along various points of a 26-mile stretch of road and then calculates their average speed. If drivers have been speeding, they could face three points on their licence and a £100 fine. The £20-million initiative on the A77 from Kilmarnock to Ayr starts on Thursday and is the first of its kind in Scotland. It is designed to cut deaths on the road, which is one of Scotland's worst accident blackspots with 314 accidents in just over five years, including 15 fatalities and 78 serious injuries.

<< local police are targeting non-standard exhausts. >> Not for the next couple of days they're not

I fly out to Italy tomorrow. From PRESTWICK - and I have to get there from Kincardine

Apaches are for pussies. We want Stealth Bombers! Not heard any more about this US aircraft carrier Bush is supposed to have moored off the west coast.

I'm presuming a load of them must be bunking at Tulliallan. Tons of them going through Kincardine last night. Metropolitan Police bikes, Leicestershire cars and a convoy of 10 yellow mobile cctv vans on the M9 this morning. We've even got them patrolling Edinburgh Park. Dread to think what it's costing us taxpayers. Why cant they do these things on an ocean liner in the middle of the Atlantic or something?

I'm with the AA. They're good. Been dry for almost three months now

Once I took a breath reading that!!!.... Guy from Toad that fitted my alarm 4 weeks ago told me modern Scoobs are un-nickable hence hijacking is the only way to get them. The alarm he fitted has anti-hijack that locks the doors when the engine is started. Wasn't convinced to start with - What if I'm in a smash and can't get out kinda thing - but now I've read this, I'm happy I'm locked in.

<< just think BIG rollercoasters >> And grannies with orange peel skin and "kiss me quick" hats Now I've worked out I actually know the mad Gumball man in RL I might not be so shy. I won't add me name yet as I'm helluva busy at the mo, but I'll say "maybe"

Excellent vid

I've been over in Europe the past two weekends with someone else doing the driving. I've driven in the US which was no problem - no roundabouts, quiet roads and automatic gearbox! The whole thing just looks too scary. Is it easy to get to grips with once you're behind the wheel? I can just picture myself checking for oncoming traffic the wrong way and pranging...

<< what as in all the florescent markings taken off?? >> No. The guts taken out of them. No flashguns or cameras in any of them in either direction. Often see some with no cameras or flashguns, but first time I've seen so many with everything removed - even the cash cows were stripped back to the boxes.

Anybody else noticed they've all been stripped? No flashes in any of them on the A90 from Dundee northwards yesterday and all stripped on the A9 south today from where they start right down to Stirling. That aside, the Scoob had it's 20k service a few weeks ago. They said it needed new front brake pads and that the front disks were seriously pitted. Should that be the case at only 20k (disk pitting - I accept the brake pads)? If so, what kind of bill can I expect? Any recommendations to get the work done?

I know of him. Lanarkshire lad isn't he? It's not that big a sport in Scotland. Most of what I cover in the UK is Yorkshire-based.

<< Jammy **** How did you get onto that? >> I own and run the biggest English-speaking Motorcycle Trials website on the Net (www.trialscentral.com). I'm going over to cover a World Championship round being held there and got that invite. At this point folk usually ask what Motorcycle Trials is. My usual response is "Remember Kickstart?" at which point they go "Ahhhh.....yes"
