Caroline was forced into the kerb by a boy racer who didn't give way to her, now got some major damage to the outer lip of the front nearside wheel. Only had them refurbed in April as well Almost 50% of the outer rim has damage Pete

Not even a GT and that mileage looks dodgy. Pete

Hubcentrics will only fit one way, the only way to fit them incorrectly would be if they were not torqued on properly and he'd spotted that one of the nuts was loose. When I got my new wheels earlier this year one of the nuts holding the spacer on had come loose, in fact it fell off when I removed the wheel . With Rays, you can actually see the nuts through the wheel and its worth taking a peek now and again My spacers were torqued on correctly BTW, I watched each nut going on and being double checked so goodness knows how it worked loose in 1,800 miles Pete

I tend not too worry about other people getting caught speeding but yes, they run the risk of getting caught, they must think its worth it TBH, in my limited experience of these compulsory speed signs on Motorways, you'd be lucky to reach the limit, by the time they switch them on the traffic is down to crawling pace Pete

They come up for sale on here now and again. Pete

Probably Will, his 350 is always shiny Pete

Like these? If so these are Nissan spats/mudguards, an arm and a leg from your Nissan dealer Pete

Well, most of the freeways or interstates are only 2 lanes and lane discipline is fairly reasonable but as you say around the cities where the number of lanes increase its so dangerous and the more lanes the more dangerous. Having driven through Denver in the rush hour, which lasts from about 6 in the morning to Ten at night you need to know exactly where your turn off is, in fact its best to just stay in lane 2. As for it being safer, I couldn't say for sure but the death rate on Motorway type U.S roads is astronomical compared to The U.K, but this could be due to other factors. For example in Colorado no need for bikers to wear crash helmets and the police can't stop you for not wearing a seatbelt, even though its the law to wear one Also many, many deaths on Freeways/Interstates are caused by drivers falling asleep Pete

Looks like an aftermarket exhaust to me, don't know which one though. Pete

I've got a Silver one, not too far away either PM me if you're interested Pete

I usually blow my horn at them and gesture for them to move into the inside lane. Pete

Take an umbrella . Actually it's the greatest circuit in the world and I'm pretty jealous. Not too sure about viewing places, much of the circuit doesn't seem to have any viewing facilities. Pete

Welcome, Silver's the best Pete

Yeah, an MY07 import, not many facelift models were imported, that's only the second I've heard of. Good price, should be worth 5k in 3 years time, providing there's nothing too drastically wrong with it. Pete

That's one way around it. There are other cheaper options too if you don't mind listening to streaming in Dutch or Italian, etc . Anyway, who watches all 20 races live, I usually record at least half of them and watch them in the evening, especially the 5 o'clock in the morning ones. Does mean you can't switch the news on all day though Pete

Wouldn't be surprised to see Wimbledon going to Sky next, followed by The Tour De France which is currently free on ITV4, there'll be nothing left on free to air soon Pete

Not good, Planet F1 and Autosport have gone into meltdown and I don't blame them. Looks like another case of the poison dwarf lining his pockets again to me. We really need further details as this was obviously announced in a hurry, but from what I have gathered there will be no ads during the race or qualifying on Sky and BBC will cover all the races online. What covering half the races on BBC HD, the so called "important" ones, means is anyone's guess Pete

Yeah, the looks don't change much, you sometimes wonder how much further they can go with the 911 but I guess there's a bit more life in it for now. Pete

A bit of research shows that the U.K didn't get its first Datsun until 1969 and just two models were sold, The Sunny and the 1400. The main thrust started in 1971 with the introduction of the Cherry so presumably the 2000 was never sold in The U.K as it was discontinued in 1970. If there are any here they would most likely be imported LHD cars from the continent or The U.S. In any case only a few thousand were produced and the most desirable ones made in 1967 are worth an absolute fortune. That Cadillac on the same page is really something to behold http://www.thefancy.com/things/25630950 ... a-Roadster Pete

Heading North on the A470 About 5.00 this evening. Pete

Reminded me of the TR5/6. Really nice car but I don't recall ever seeing one of these before, where they ever available in The U.K? Pete

I was pretty lucky with my neighbours in the 5 years I lived in a semi. The first ones that lived there were a very quiet couple without any children and they both worked shifts, the only time they made much noise was at night funnily enough mainly when the husband was on nights . After a period of the house being empty another youngish couple moved in with 4 kids, all girls. The girls often made a racket when their parents were out and a on a few occasions I had to go around and sort out their arguments. Amazingly, I don't think I ever saw their dad in the two years they were there, he was a DJ and was out till all hours apparently. Pete

Yeah, there's a lot of mobile cameras here in North Wales and I've yet to see a police car accompanying one, so that pretty well confirmed what I thought Pete
