  1. Last time I looked Paignton was in Devon? I used to live there and it would have been a long trek to school in Torquay if I was in America.
  2. I'm sure nobody here would be childish enough to post silly questions to the seller about p/x ing with a 1996 Mini Metro?!
  3. Think long and hard. Bought a JDM Sunset '03 in the summer for £8500 and it's everything I want. Have spent £1000 on modding/upgrades (something I've never done in my life before this) Whatever you buy you will want to fiddle with interior/extrior/performance etc. I'd spend around £10k if I were you and then go mental with the add-ons.
  4. I've got lots of pics of "lip underneath front bumer" but I can't post them here........ Perhaps you need a re-type.
  5. It'll be registered as PLG or something then as some of them are. Yep - mine registered June '09 as a PLG on a JDM '03 and just paid £190.
  6. This does make me laugh. Downloading the Rage single to prevent an X Factor winner being No 1 is about as rebellious as buying the Daily Mail. 500,000 people all doing the same thing at the same time because a skilled PR schemer (take a bow Jon Morter and wife) tells them to is hardly Emily Pankhurst stuff. Sony BGM have racked up 1,000,000 sales between the two acts and have played it beautifully. Cowell even called Morter when the result was announced to congratulate him and his wife on their marketing skills. I'm off to bring down the Labour Government by buying Queen's Greatest Hits. Not.
  7. Liverpool lose. Scum lose. Hughes sacked. Great day for the Gooners Will be embarrassing for me if they lose to Hull though
  8. er........just watched the first 20 mins and he seems on top form. Totally taking the p**s out of the show and having a great laugh at/with the two presenters. From his online bio: "In spite of fronting a number of adverts for beer on British TV he is actually teetotal. Became teetotal after alcoholic father John Kay died suddenly aged c. 59, in April 1999. Peter declared the death on his father's certificate" Lighten up. Would you rather see Jo Brand or Tony Robinson on there for Chrissaake!
  9. No fitment issues whatsoever. Been under the car with fitter and nowhere near sub-frame or anything else. It sounds unbelieveable over 3000 revs but it's my daily driver and need something else for dome grandaddy driving. Where are those offers then?
  10. Coming off on Friday. 1st to PM with the above amount can have it free of postage. Tips will be polished prior to sending. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQsODMuhWOc
  11. I'm selling this as my ears are permananetly ringing and I'm shouting all the time. Anybody interested can look on the For Sale section. It's coming off on Friday.
  12. "How many revs is that driver" "Just up to 3,000 maam, I'll be pulling back soon................."
  13. Get a Rover Metro for Chrisssake!!!
  14. Anybody know the depth of originals so I can look at alternatives?
  15. Piccies please then with a double DIN head unit fitted flush in all aspects and I'll take it back.
  16. Not sure if it's "right" or not but yes, it is about 5mm in at the centre top. Fitter said the double-DIN facia I bought from Sextons didn't fit. I'm ok with it but if someone has fitted this unit and has made it completely flush all round, I'd like to know how.
  17. Forgot to say. It is supplied with ipod wire which comes out in centre cubby!! All tucked away with no USB stick or wires. We decided not to use the double din facia as I want to make a security cover and need a little gap around the edge for fitting. Will post another photie when I've made it.
  18. There you go. Sorry about out of focus edges but just realised I've shot it at 2.8 aperture and I am so hungover that I can't go outside again. Lovely unit but now (of course) it's telling me to buy new speakers because the originals are sh**e!
  19. Agree with the last 2. Doesn't need performance mods as it's got all the power you'll ever need. Make it lighter if you can, give it beter tyres, brakes and suspension.
  20. Can you confirm the part numbers for the non-Brembo EBC Turbo Grooves? I've got GD7120 for front and GD7121 for rear. If this is right, how much delivered for the set?
  21. mmmmm not sure. Anyway I've just about to have mine changed at 54k
  22. Dan at Dage Motor Services in sunny Weston. He charged me £21.26 to put my K1 on and has done stuff for free before for me and Mel with her MX-5. I was in there yesterday and he spent 20 minutes fiddling with the K1 'cos it wasn't level. No charge. I'm sure you'd get on like a house on fire!
  23. 54,000 Silkolene Syn 5
  24. Thanks Sunset. Literally just pressed the buy button through Sextons - £188.99. Got all the bits and will have it fitted next week along with Honda stubby, P2 service and sound sound-proofing 'cos just bought a K1 exhaust!!!!!
