No worries mate - thanks for giving it a go, as others have said, sounds like quite a lot of hassle to overcome on your part. I'll be watching out for your next delivery of bonnet struts!!

I've heard various people talk about the fact that Japan is rich and doesn't need/want donations - this may be true. Personally I don't think we should think too deeply about the wealth or otherwise of the country - sometimes it's the offer of help that means a lot. The point is that the charitable organisations that do a great deal of 'first aid' so to speak - shelters, food etc... DO need donations in order to work. The Red Cross, for example, can't simply say to the Japanese government "give us £xxxx" in order to do our work. Even if they could, bureaucracy causes delays in getting this cash moving. Japan may have the means to rebuild after this situation is stabilized, but charities need the money ASAP in order to keep on working. It is a fair point made about past disasters which have now disappeared from our screens - well that's the media for you - a lot of people out there are very concerned about the Nikkei and how it will affect the economy here (questionable priorities I would say). That said, I haven't seen the same level of donation appeal on the TV as there has been for disasters in poorer countries. With that in mind, charities need ongoing donations in order to carry on giving support even when the rest of the world isn't watching. If the forum wants to do something to help the Japanese, then it can't be a bad thing. People can make their own choice whether or not to support it. If a mate, rich or poor, had his house burnt down, I'd put him up for the night. My name's on the list.

Well they are £140 cheaper than the Eibach kit - so where is the saving being made? That would be my main worry - possible inferior materials. I would certainly find out more about them before committing any money - whereas the Eibachs come recommended, tried and tested.

Loads of different cars out there without them - no legal requirement for rear wiper Personally I like having the function - compromise: off for summer, on for winter!

Share prices down everywhere it seems... RRL sub 18p - couldn't resist a top up at that price! Hope to see some positive results in the coming weeks! Also topped up with CRND, looking forward to some (hopefully positive) news from South African Government soon. News from RRL today: TEXAS DRILLING UPDATE – EAST TEXAS COTTON VALLEY, ROSS 3H #1 WELL International oil and gas exploration, development and production company, Range Resources Limited (“Range†or “the Companyâ€) is pleased to announce that the Company and its partners have drilled the Cotton Valley objective section to a depth of around 5,500 ft (1,680m) in its Ross 3H #1 Well at the East Texas Cotton Valley Project. The partners will now cease drilling in order to log the well before plugging back and initiating horizontal drilling operations. Mud logging results have been encouraging thus far, with oil shows over an interval more than 400 ft. thick, including oil in the mud pits while drilling. The well has a projected total hole length of 8,200ft (2,500m), including a 2,500ft (762m) horizontal section through the Cotton Valley oil reservoir. The Company will continue to provide further updates as information becomes available. Yours faithfully Peter Landau Executive Director Gains on the way?

...and he knows a thing or two! Sage words I'm a patient man, will just keep building up my holdings each month - learning as I go!

Can't help but feel a little jealous - my 2K is spread across RRL, CRND, CAZA and Standard Life UK Small Companies Fund - and I'm sitting on £200 losses! Must have bought on a spike or something rookie like that Ah well, I'm holding on to them, I feel they'll come good before long

Hi mate, Got a spare back box with about 50'000 miles on it, good condition; welded as per usual place! I'm up the road in Nantwich and free evenings or for the whole of next weekend if you're interested. Happy to send you pics etc if you want. Drop me a PM.

Not sure whether Roberts do kit fitting - they're mainly in to body repair work. I can't see why they wouldn't fit a kit though - still body work! You gonna tell us what you're getting done then??????!!!!!!

Hi mate, Roberts Refinishing - Ellsemere port Not exactly where you asked for - but I recently had some damage repaiered by these guys. They are Lexus approved and did a perfect colour match; perfect job - in fact I'd say the paint finish was better than the factory job!

Learning has taken place! Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me

I think there would be a lot of interest at the moment! V-Power has hit over 1.40p/lt where I am. Can I ask, as I'm a bit uneducated about fuel, what is the main thing that makes high octane fuel, high octane? I'm under the impression that it is essentially the same base fuel as regular unleaded, but with cleaners etc added? If you were to use normal unleaded fuel - would putting a decent additive in the tank every so often provide a similar benefit? Cheers,

Looks I reckon go black on the door handles mate!

I think the point being made was probably for when you are actually driving along the road. I agree it can need to be turned off sometimes for grip getting the car moving though. For normal driving, whenever the traction control kicks in (I'm pleased to say rarely) - a little voice in my head always says "the machine saved a little bit of your ass there you fool!"

To repeat some advice given to me from ZMANALEX - ensure that genuine Nissan transmission oil is in there, and adding some Molyslip has gained an improvement for many people. Cambelt indeed...imbeciles...

Dirty side skirts! Starts off pretty well - but goes a bit pants where he's just following traffic and braking a lot and then revving it up whilst stationary. I liked the drive by bits and the slow motion cuts scene - that was pretty effective. Not bad for an amateur effort!

User: Andyngina, "cheers ma can definitely confirm its working great on my passat 90 bhp you said prolly 8bhp more id say definitely more it goes as good as my audi a4 19 tdi not to sure what bhp but told it was 110 or 115 only just bought the car to replace the audi and was gna resell it coz power was crap but definitely keeping it now" 'innit bruv

Sorry to say it mate but - you've got no chance claiming from the council. You would have to prove that it was that particular pothole that caused the damage, that you were driving at the correct speed, that you did everything you could to avoid it etc... Save yourself the endless frustration. That said, you should still make a complaint and demand that the pothole be repaired - might save somebody else the same fate. Good luck with the wheels.

Sounds very logical mate. I think everyone who has bought into the CRND or other mining companies is waiting with baited breath for further news from SAG. I can only imagine that there is some very deep (and no doubt heated) discussion going on about who will pay what towards the AMD issue. Whilst SAG has ignored it for far too long, many past and present mining companies are also guilty of contributing to the problem - and no doubt SAG will want to ensure a suitable levy is agreed to reflect this. Either way - the AMD issue WILL start to be resolved, as it can not be ignored any longer. With that in mind, I believe investment now or in the near future will yield decent long term gains for those willing to be patient.

I love what they have done here

Just crap.

In true British style, we should get a petition together post-haste and send it to the king of Saudi Arabia telling him to 'get a grip' as all this silly nonsense is making western driving pleasure too expensive...

Just had a quick look - seems like a good spot there BlackRock Gold & General Fund is a major shareholder in these guys, and they came in as one of the best performing big funds in 2010 (they returned just over 40% on a 10K investment). So if they are backing them, then surely it's a good sign? Certainly warrants further research at any rate
