  1. Engine provided its cared for is fine for galactic but budget for expensive items like clutches which by all accounts CAN go anywhere from 40k onwards.....some see 60k others run passed 100k. Drop links, banana bars, bearings.....all the usual crap but it can mount up if you get stung all at once so check carefully. You've just got to see how it drives.
  2. Wasso dried his jeans on the plenum at lakez last year

    Hahaha....its a custom exhaust you wally. It's as loud as you ask them to make it! How are we supposed to know
  7. photobucket bud
  8. That looks fricking ace! Good effort that man
  9. The market is criminal at the moment.....that looks a lot of car for the money.
  10. I cannot believe how nimble this car is you know.......stick it in sport, lower the suspension to lowest setting an it really does feel planted! I thought I'd make sure it was definitely pulling as it should when the kick down comes in ......pants ruined.
  11. Man up and get back to the shed you wuss!
  12. Sorry lack of thread reading before posting!
  13. Lucky if you get second hand rays with tyres for much less than that!
  14. Oh and also got a 'add one liter of oil at next fuel stop' warning......on my apparently freshly changed oil.
  15. Booked in for Thursday. They reckon they've done no more than topped it up. Even with glycol it would be orange not black. It's simply not been changed. No big deal as its basically just ready for a change but the lying gits. They said that they add an anti judder solution in there as well which coats the torque converter to make it smoother. Apparently they've had quite a few with the same problem and this has been a success.
  16. Jesus titty ****ing Christ.......overfilled ATF by 3 litres and it's jet black. Sneaky, dirty, evil, southern bastards!

    BMW Thefts

    Lucky the 350 has a micra key
  18. MB Mech thinks it just needs another ATF change and some anti judder solution putting in but he's sticking it on a diagnostic as well. Distance buying is either epic win or EPIC fail. The 350 was bought blind but from a really spot on indie in Scotland who did a full appriasal of the car for me so I knew every last detail of the condition. I was honestly expecting 30mpg from crusing at 70mph but its averaging on a 7 mile motorway run to work about 19 mpg Massaging seats are cool but perhaps not as crazy as you'd think - they basically just pulse at the base of your bad (good if you get lumbar pain on a long journey). The dynamic seats are AMAZING - bolsters pull in to grip you when you turn a corner. Not sure about the LSD Leeroy and Stew.......lets see the bill from this garage before I determine a happy ending or not!
  19. Ian you seriously need some fricking help mate.
  20. Just remember what world we are living in.......if there is a way that a company can legally not pay out on something then they are going to take it. Christ most of the time if there is a way a company can illegally achieve financial gain they take it!
  21. Admiral will probably charge about a £25 quid admin fee....its surprising how many mods they take without actually affecting the premium.
  22. Does he look hard? Do you see anyone who looks hard frequenting his house? If 'no'....Do you or can you look either hard (but not just like you can handle yourself - I mean like ex con hard) and/or could you look wildly crazy? It might just be worth under the pretence of doing some gardening, knocking on his door with a chainsaw/hatchet in your hand and very calmly ask him to keep the noise down as your parole officer is coming round shortly. Optional - whilst calmly talking to him having a really exaggerated twitch where you slam your head against his wall whilst emmiting a barking sound. From a legal perspective you've been neither threatening or menacing........from a human perspective you'll terrify him back into his little stoner hole.
  23. A55, Post House To Broughton, dead straight and almost flat for 4 miles Pete Bah! Fake non motorway that might as well be a motorway. Disqualified!
