  1. Although I didn't see the programme, I heard about it this morning in the usual 'office debate' we have. I think the point Bundus made

    if the current government toughened the immigration laws and worked toward stopping the over crowding and the situation of illegal immigrants then the BNP would never have risen as quickly as they have in the last couple of months.
    is quite accurate in my eyes.

     

    I'm not a big fan of politics and have the view that 'they are all as bad as each other'. This view probably goes some way to explain why I've failed my accounting politics module for the past year! I know some of the general population have the same sort of view as me. They only see Labour and Conservatives parties and if they hate both, they would vote for the BNP without knowing anything about them. A well structured programme last night would have educated these people about the stance of the parties, and given them it in a short hour long programme that wouldn't be too ind epth, I feel QT has missed out on this objective greatly.

     

    Looking forward to reading the rest of this thread, maybe I'll learn something and finally pass my exam :)

  2. I have clipped a badger before. Someone had already seen to it, but it was in a heap in the middle of the road, on a blind corner. I had no where to go so decided to attack it head on. It sounded like it was playing the bongos with the bottom of my car, and finally reappeared about 30 meters down the road. Luckily I had no damage, but a big lump of fluff near the back box.

     

    My brother found it hilarious in the passenger seat!

  3. Here`s another good detailing site, for anyone interested. B)http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/

     

    Sorry to 'bump' an old thread -

     

    Baker21 is brilliant at detailing, well worth a look. Top bloke with a very nice write up and partner!

     

    Hope this helps,

    Rob.

    Baker21 is a good lad, met him at a North Eastern detailing meet a few months ago.

     

    I've been on detailing world for a while now, some very good info on there. Just reading through the studio part and seeing what peope do and use is pretty interesting.

  4. Maybe a sticky post with peoples 1/4 mile lap times on could be arranged?

     

    I was thinking of going to the Pod this year but it hasn't worked out so far. There is always next summer. I'm not sure I can justify a new set of tyres afterwards though :(

  5. Hi everyone. Its been a while since I've had time to write this up and get the pics sorted out.

     

    You all may remember a raffle that happened in the summer for Working Hospice that looked after Curly. I managed to win the Nismo V1 Spoiler :yahoo: Reading recommendations on this forum, I took it upto Car and Bike Magic in Sunderland. They used to do all of the paint and body work for ESR so I know they would do a top job. I was amazed at what they did though, a perfect match.

     

    Now onto some piccies!

    Thanks for looking

  6. Since I'm first..........totally standard wheel setup with no drop. Its probably not what you want, but gives a basis for comparison :)

     

    Oh and this is the first pics of my car with the V1 Nismo Spoiler on. Will sort out more and a new thread tonight.

  7. Hi everyone, just stumbled across this thread. I've been to Xscape a load of times and on my most recent visit there was a focus RS meet going on. They used the part of the car park Woody has circled and had no problem with space.

     

    Not sure if I'll be able to make it this time, although the lure of snowboarding afterwards would be a bonus. Is there going to be a drive out as well or just a meet and chat?
