  1. Slightly off topic. What wheels are these above or what can I get that's similar. i.e. black with a rim that can be matched to the bodywork? Want to put a set on my Sunset 350z.
  2. Oooh come on ASM, CEY, MEC (few stock market tips if you want them)
  3. Publish a price and you may get some replies.
  4. "As for the outdoor - definately regional! The Mrs is from Solihull and uses 'outdoor', no idea of how an offie came to be know as the outdoor" It comes from the times when lots of pubs (and I can remember buying my first Colt 45s/cider etc in '76/'77) had an "off-sales" door or hatch which you bought your booze from but didn't go in the pub. Usually "manned" by a buxum middle-aged lady who seemed to be quite happy to give the 12 year-olds of Paignton limitless supplies of hooch so they could stagger around parks puking in the Azelias until it was time for tea..................happy days.
  5. 1.Cost. Let's face it, we'd ALL have a Lambo if we wanted an aggressive two-seater which looked like the danglies but we just can't afford it. 2. See above......

    mpg??

    It really is too early Above figure from Google conversion. Just done it on calculator and it's 22.4 m.p. BRITISH g. Where's the gin?
  7. captain

    mpg??

    Ooh - woken up a bit and worked out that's 18.5 mpg. Driving style? Like Kirsten Dunst is in a soft top Lambo 200 yds ahead and has just texted me to say she's "reet up for it" if I can reach her in 3 seconds..............
  8. captain

    mpg??

    7.9km/l. Work it out yourself 'cos it's 3.33 here in Zummerzet and my brain hurts.
  9. Seen it on other advert. Herts for those who don't
  10. Location??
  11. I can only guess what your 3 minute run is like Pimm - can't imagine for one second I drive too quick for you. Mind you, got in to a bit of a race with a Mini Cooper Works edition on the levels near Bridgwater on the weekend and Mel reckons her hand brushed their wing mirror as I slid past........ Might be out your way this weekend with the MX-5 so that steak might be getting closer.
  12. Just "tested" the cargo net with my briefcase and coat underneath it at, ahem, high speeds on a v.twisty road in good ole' Zummerzet. (Portbuty Lane between Failand and Portbury if anybody fancies a quick 3 minute run) This usually leaves the contents of the boot lookiing like it's been in a fight with Mike Tyson but this time, not a thing out of place. Surprised - I was.
  13. I think I won it at £7.50. Fits perfectly on the four hooks so recommended.
  14. True - but Nurrish's system needs a head unit to get decent sound so £450 for his system plus £150 for a head unit - £600 in all. Plus - I don't really need Sat Nav - a £9.99 AA map in the car and Google maps before I leave is fine for me and I've been reversing for nearly 30 years without getting in any difficulty so the reversing camera doesn't appeal either. Any other opinions?
  15. Thanks. Anybody else? I quite like it but I'm usually a name snob and this does seem a bit too good to be true at the price.
  16. Anybody got one of these, seen one of these or has an (informed) opinion? Thanks. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Meos-7-LCD-In-Das ... 286.c0.m14
  17. Happy days indeed. Definately pulls smoother and sounds good as well. PIMM - there's a big fat steak waiting out there somewhere with your name on it. Thanks again and speak to you soon.
  18. £7100 winning bid?!?
  19. Which Peugout??
  20. Dead easy to fit, If I wasn't working all week I would have met up with you & give you a hand fitting it I'm off on hols for a week but will be back in time for the Pistonheads meet in Cheddar on 6th Sept. If you're coming it would be much appreciated if you could help me fit it and I'll buy you lunch.
  21. Bought a top model Griffin (the one with 3 presets) and it's rubbish - the sound is very quiet, always re-tuning and the audio quality is abysmal. I'm ditching it - you can have it for a tenner.
  22. Cool. I can't change a lightbulb so what should I be paying a mechanic to fit this?? I live in Weston-super-Mare if anybody knows a good garage.
  23. ordered from Envy thanks for help.
  24. Looking to buy one of these but CS have quoted 1 month lead time. Anybody know of a company/supplier that has them on the shelf? Thanks.
  25. Sorry but I think the price is too high. I've just sold 2 x Alpine products on e-bay for £115 when they retail for £445. However, v. interested in unit Digsy. Can you PM me if there is movement on that price. Thanks.
