Rather dirty looking 350 Blade on a 54 plate on the Queensferry roundabout around 13:00, actually waved at me too . Pete

Hmm, need to think about this . Pete

Toyota FT-HS 2007. The new Supra? Pete

Hmm, my 55 reg lasted 30 days, just about started...after leaving it for 3 weeks a couple of months later it needed jump starting and wouldn't hold the charge after that. Pete

I've not bothered on mine. Dealers regard extended warranty as money in the bank and will do anything to wriggle out of it...just my experience from a previous car (a Ford) when I missed the mandatory service by about 1.5k, I'm sure they would have found some other reason anyway. Pete

Well, Chris has managed to eradicate most of the damage done when the spoiler was fitted. One or two of the scratches were too deep even for Chris's magic touch but the vast majority of the grit marks have been removed. Chris also gave my car a thorough clean, and I mean thorough . After watching Chris in action I now realise that my cleaning techniques are about 30 years out of date and my equipment 40 years , the car that I thought was reasonably clean turned out to be pretty grubby in reality. Anyway, thanks Chris, looking better than ever now. A few pics to follow soon. OMG, What's this? Chris in action Almost done, just the tail pipes to polish Pete

Careful Pete

Yep, looks like another cold one in prospect. Wasn't too bad here last year, cold but not that snowy. Probably our turn to get it . http://theweatheroutlook.com/twoother/t ... pr&id=1774 Pete

Incredible footage.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU4VzC6dT6M Pete

Welcome to the forum . Whereabouts are you located? Pete

Looks like the roof was an afterthought, the whole thing looks Tonka Toyish to me. And the Spyker, fairly obvious they've bought a reject design from GM, circa 1966 Pete

I don't have anything to swop, but if you're giving it away free then seeing as I'm just down the road I could pop in and pick it up . Cheers, Pete

Biggest ever increase in car insurance, especially for young male drivers. Interesting article, seems that we're all suffering because of it. That does sound like an extremely high quote though. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-11526311 Pete

Just 2 mods for me so far.. 1 Nurrish SatNav 2 Nismo V1 Replica Rear Spoiler. Next up in 2011 will be 3 Spacers 4 Rear Light Cluster After that Front Spoiler or Splitter? Rear Bumper? And that leads me to a quick question, are there any front bumpers other than the originals that have the headlight washer holes cut in them? My understanding is that its a legal requirement to have them on any car with HID lights, not sure if its an MOT requirement though??? Pete

Since when has a U.K car been LHD? Put me right off it . Actually I find the interior to be complete yuck Pete

Yes, same here, no oil needed in 9k on my 55 reg. Pete

Whoa, that's pretty neat. Not that keen on the enormous rear spoiler but the rest of it looks great. Unfortunately, just about everyone has the CD jumping problem. Welcome onboard, Pete

Yes, it's always in the back of your mind. I'm fortunate to live in an isolated spot, so isolated that delivery companies can't find us, I have my own private lane and I can park right outside my back door . When I'm out I'm careful where I park, I have "safe areas" in most places I visit regularly...no guarantee though. My wife has to park her roadster in a supermarket carpark close to her work, she parked her Z4 there for 2 years without problems, but it's a worry of course. I used to be a Chemist working in the oil business, but now I'm retired . Welcome to the forum BTW!! Pete

Had a crap day today but that really brought a smile to my face. What a lovely moment and thanks for sharing it with us . Pete

You are pressing the clutch at the same time? Pete

Indeed it does Pete

Looks really tidy . Pete

Looking at the roadsters I imagined that they wouldn't suit a spoiler but I changed my mind today when I saw this thread. viewtopic.php?f=56&t=38818 Pete

I'd me more concerned about the damage he's going to do to the underneath, "4 WHEEL DRIVE RECOMMENDED", just look at the size of those rocks Pete

If anyone is staying up to watch The Japanese GP Qualifying then you might want to watch The Bathurst 1000 on Motors TV which is being shown live in its entirety. Coverage now on, race starts in a couple of hours. Pete
