  1. The woman at Shell Cumbernauld thought I needed the drivers club card, but I thought the V-Power club (which I've had a card for ages now) was still ok?

    It seems to be complicated. I had a plus points card and and was sent a new vpower club card but was still registered with the pluspoints scheme as thats what i joined years ago. You have to register with the new scheme and get your points transfered over before end of june. Once you register on the new scheme there is a section in the rewards asking if you want to transfer your old pluspoints over.

    If the first card you ever got was a vpower card through the vpower club scheme then you should be ok.

  2. Signed up for the new Shell V-Power Club to get my points transfered over as Shell Pluspoints stops working at the end of June.

    Found out tonight that all the points Ive collected over the past few years will be exchanged for vouchers at the end of the month.

    For those of you who havent registered yet you need to do it here www.shell.co.uk/driversclub then login and choose your reward.

    If you dont choose a reward you will be sent fuel vouchers by default.

    So it looks like at the end of every quarter any points you have earned will be exchanged for vouchers for your chosen reward.

    Its a bit crap if youve been saving for something decent as all the good rewards dont seem to be available on the new scheme.

     

    Not sure what happens to your pluspoints if you dont register with the new scheme or spend them before the deadline..

    I now wish I had exchanged my points with the Pluspoints Scheme before registering with new one as the rewards were better.

  3. Found this clip of the reveal. What a pile of crap he talks.

    Is that the best they could come up with - Sharper Suspension, Sports Seats and a Hood Scoop.

    And the worst line ever - "Now clearly this car is built for performance"

    Aye it mabye is but definately lacking in the looks department.

    Oh dear. 

    I would still fancy getting one anyway even though it looks naff cause I definately didnt buy the one I have now cause it looks pretty.

    Bodykit, alloys and the usual mods will make it look good. Imagine having 300+ BHP after a few engine mods in a 4WD sports hatch that handels as good as subarus do. [:D]
     

    Mabye not the mean rally slag look that imprezas have, but roll on the uk version of the STI to see what it will be like.

  4. Hello and welcome !!

    Where do you live ?

    Make and model of car ?

    What kind of strut brace ?

    How much do you want to spend ?

    For an answer as broad as your question I am sure you will get them in a shop that sells strut bars [:P], otherwise pm gus the bus and he will sort you out.

  5. Looking at getting a helmet for track days.

    What kind should I get. Been having a look but not sure.

    Do they have to meet any rules/regulations as they seem to range from £40 to £300+

    As I will be in a car would an opened face helmet do.

  6. With so many complaints it obvious the forum needs to be improved, listen to the users because without them the forum will never work as the owner intends.

     
    Having bought a 205 I find myself spending more time on here http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/ than on SIDC.

     
    Lets take an example, I am refurbishing my calipers. I did a search on "caliper paint"  on here and came up with this, http://forums.sidc.co.uk/search/SearchResu...+paint&s=11

     
    I did a search on the 205 forum and it came up with this 

    http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?a...e=caliper+paint

     
    You can see the difference, Obviously I have still to learn to do clickys [:o]

    There are a few website developers who own subarus and use this forum, am sure they will offer thier support for free to improve it for all the users.

    Micky mouse forum designs do not justifiy the joining fee and the forum should meet the needs of all users.

    Get out of jail free card applied. IMHO.
