  5. Offer him something else Chris (more doughnuts maybe ), I want to get rid of him before Christmas if I can Woooooooooooooooooh can we at least get rid of him after the engine transplant please?
  6. Just received a text to say my delivery arrived today, another quick easy transaction with Clark Motorsport, the start of the road to recovery! Thanks fellas.
  7. Maybe yours just has a hole in it.
  8. A lot, the issue with that is, not the rent, but the distance to work again, 50miles a day.
  9. But I want to be behind the safe gates
  10. Ooo you're the Kyle on my Facebook I love Lego, but I really miss the lego from 10/15 years ago - I feel like the models I used to build back then were so much bigger/more parts - Castles etc. Now a days it's more expensive for less. I saw the Deathstar made from lego - £250ish and it didn't look like it would take too long to make
  11. Have you tried hitting it? It worked temporarily for my TV, until it broke more
  12. It's also now known as the OEM rear bumper
  13. I bet you get more dings and scratches getting in and out that you ever would parked on the road Well right now on my road is a Punto, with it's front bumper missing and a smashed head light I'll take my chances else where.
  14. ^^ Cheers for the comments guys, Just spoke to my company, who deal with social housing - We have some garages near me up for rent :woop woop: They are just bog standard garages, which could possibly be 6/7ft - 8ft deep. Their going to give me the keys to take a look at some point, but it's a starting point, hopefully it's big enough
  15. Was going to say the same thing, stop being so precious and accept it is a 10 year old car worth a few grand, park it in the best place you can and forget about it, much more important things to worry about in life imo A few Grand may not seem a lot to you, but it definitely is for me, worked hard to get my car, and even harder to get it back on the road. Had it been a bog standard Zed, then yeah I wouldn't be bothered as much where it was parked, But it's not, it can easily attract the wrong attention down this road, so I'd like to do what I can to look after the car. Wasn't meant as an insult Matt you should know that, I just meant stop worrying about what might happen and enjoy getting the car back. What do you mean by attracting the wrong attention? When I have lived in areas I thought were rough and worried about my car I found there was usually quite a bit of respect for cars like Zeds or Supras etc as they are affordable performance cars rather than Porches etc Yeah my bad with that one, I know what you mean. It's funny, with the attention, there's been reports of keyings, mainly from residents doing it Because people park in spaces outside there houses (Public road, they can) So they don't have to pay to park to go on the train. So residents get snobby about cars left there all day, thus mine would be left there all day too :/ Don't get me wrong, I can't wait to get back on the road, as a lot of things wont matter when I'm back in my car, I guess this was just a thread to see what other people have done to with regards to 3rd party storage

  17. Cheers bud, true, but at the same time last thing I want to do is spend all this money getting it back on the road and having it keyed or damaged in some way
  18. Cheers guys. Got a few options. Easiest will be if a neighbour rents their space. It turns out my company has garage lots. So going to find out the closest and if I can rent. Can't have a space at work as they are all allocated and I used to get told off for parking there I don't mind moving. So looks like there are a few options. Just hopefully the answer is local. #teamtarmac
  19. Happy Birthday ya big mean green machine!
  20. It will be back on the road soon, so planning on where it's going to be kept (It's currently at my mums 25 miles away)
  21. Going to change to job and rent with me then?
