Firsty was there any damage caused to anything other than the car? If the post is not damaged then there is no need to report the accident and no offence to leave. Secondly If there was damage to the post you have a duty to reported it to the poilce as soon as paracticable or at least within 24 hours. Officers will want to speak to you regarding the circumstances and unless there is any evidence of driving without due care or careless driving and it is just a simple accident and the insurance is willing to pay or you personally then that should be the end of it. You wil be reported for the offences or failing to stop and failing to report an accident and the facts will be submitted to a central summons unit where a decision will be made as to whether to prosicute or not. There is a time limit of 6 months to progress the report so it could be some time before this is finalised A rough guide to possible outcomes if it goes to court are. Momentary lapse of concentration or misjudgement at low speed Band A fine, Band A fine 3 – 4 points Loss of control due to speed, mishandling or insufficient attention to road conditions, or carelessly turning right across on-coming traffic Band B fine, Band B fine 5 – 6 points Overtaking manoeuvre at speed resulting in collision of vehicles, or driving bordering on the dangerous Band C fine, Band C fine Consider disqualification OR 7 – 9 points

Project finised, borrowed camera and went click happy. Here's a few. Any worth of putting forward for the forum calendar? Opinions please.

Just got my hands on a Fuji S9600 and want to take some decent pictures. I have only ever used a cheap camera or mobile. I now want to take the next step and try and get some more professional looking shots. Any basic advice for a simleton or should i stick with the automatic setting and see what happens.

The high milage is no problems these days. Providing it drives well and the clutch seems ok, buy it

Poorboys Black hole. Alternatively 2000 wet and dry and re polish.

You can never be too careful

It was all to do with the new MOT regulation that have/are comming in regarding HIDS lights.

Spoiler back from the body shop. Just love the finish. It took a little more work than expected although the fit is very good the surface required some levling and filling to get the required finish. Metal mesh grill supplied by Zmanalex (thanks). The self adhesive fasteners supplied required extra help so fastened them with the help of araldite. Attached and fitted the light washers. Finished, Grill, badge and side reflectors. Finally fitted.

Each to their own

Never used G3 myself (Meguiar man personally). All of the products out there are pretty much the same some better than others. G3, Meguiars ultimate compound/SWirl X and 2.0 all have a blend of diminishing abrasives to gently and effectively remove blemishes from the paint work and restores it back to what it should look like. I have found that using a machine polisher is the best way of applying such products but follow the manufacturers directions when using.

Maybe the thermostate that has stuck in the closed position which in turn isn't allowing the hot water to circulate round all of the engine. Instead it is remaining in the top end which isn't allowing time for the fan sensors to react to the small temp drops. Just a thought.
