  1. HAHA did mine on the weekend. The front 2 got changed in about 2 mins. The rear had me stumped and cursing for 20 odd mins! I even had to go away and come back to it!! Bloody thing!
  2. I had an issue where my weather strip that runs alone to bottom of the window had not been placed properly and I had a tiny (1-1.5mm) gap between the end and the A pillar. Check that too. Its hard to spot if ur not looking!

    Falken 453's

    Works out around that price on blackcircles!!!
  5. Dont let Ekona read that!! The best tyres at the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. The others are just cheaper. I have a rear set of part worn 452's if you want them (6k miles on normal driving). £???? After having a good chat with Ek im changing all round to the PSS if they dont jump in price.
  6. MTEC have a good rep with other models and are very good on price.
  7. Shame I dont fit in them. Would love to have given one a proper dressing down!
  8. Ill take a look but doubt its that due to the motor not sounding like its winding up. Changing that for like £2 cant do no harm though!
  9. Sorry if this is a repeat or a rediculously basic question......but im once again having issues with my front washers. I had the motor replaced in Nov and things were ok..not great buy ok. I heard a little pop (very small) the other day like a small stone hitting the underside coming from my engine bay when i tried to washer. Now the fluid is coming out the bottom hole but with only a small amount of force but not from the others meaning I dont get a particularly good cleaning. The motor is not making much of a noise if any. Nothing like what it was before. The headlamp washers are working fine and dandy. Any ideas as to the issue? Has my motor gone? Is it a fuse? Im quite special when it comes to vehicle repairs so treat me much the same as a 4 year old. I just begrudge sending it in if its very basic. My initial impression is a fuse but dont want to go spending the small amount of money I have replacing fuses if its gonna be another motor........ I mean I have new brakes, service and tax a few months away.
  10. Love it!!! It always nice to get those sorts of comments. I went to my 'salon' (que the pi$$ takes) the other day and on getting to the car park there was some gangsta looking guy hanging about and eyeing up my car. On getting back turns out he was waiting to ask me loads of questions about it as he thought it was a'sick ride'.
  11. I want that engine bay in my car!
  12. Dont really mind the bonnet. They can keep the rest.
  13. Enough to make you panic if your not sure though!!! Def aircon. Asked a lot by paniced owners when I sold them way back in 2004!!
  14. M3 came top trumps as you would expect. Basically all 3 were top used buys!
  15. As rothers said. I felt a little the same when I got mine. Its all about what your used to. Just give it a while and try sitting a little more upright or adjusting the front lumbar bits of the seat. Will feel odd for a bit then comfortable.
  16. Once again 'THANK YOU'. Gives me some nice bedtime reading!!!
  17. Well where the f*ing link?!?!?! Its been an hour!!!! On a serious note, really appreciate it mate! £5 spent to make me wish I had a McLaren!! B'tards!
  18. Whats the chances of a scan/PDF being uploaded??! I bought evo for that review and bought got a 370 test instead?!? Gutted
  19. Which Evo is that? Not the Mclaren special? That has a 370z vs Mx5?!?!
  20. Those Leons are now able to go into silly figures without 'that' much being spent on them. They are big 'sleeper' cars in the performance/hot hatch market. They are 225 standard so your 'only' looking at a coule of grand to get it comfortably over 300. Some of the fettled ones are seriously quick bearing in mind the Leon was always known for its ingear rather than 0-60 /sprint abilities. They are a fantastic tuners option.
  21. Feel as hollow as you want mate but you are one of the few that will get to drive a machine as amazing as that. Glass half full or half empty? Id swap the hollow feeling you have for the chance to drive one of them!!! Very jealous.
  22. Enjoy it mate. You will love it!!!!!
  23. £120 is a bargin....where from?
  24. The guys that sourced mine said they could only get them at camskill or other places that still had them on shelf. Think they will be used up before long.
  25. Well the falken based facts read pretty good. Take a leap of faith and be the first mate. If they are better than the 452's then I dont think your going to get a bad tyre?!?!
