  1. Well that makes me look at things in an entirely different light, £50k ish for a A110, 4C or 718 is the bargain of the century!!
  2. S2000 are also a lot of money for what they are imho.
  3. Coming home from a track day in a car always seem slow even at national limits, but a week later, your back in the groove of regular speeds.
  4. Woah and you think the Alpine is expensive, as with all these repeated discussions, its definitely worth giving electric a go if you have zero interest in anything other than getting a short a to b distance for as cheap as possible.
  5. I was like you, never really phased by it when i had bikes, we did a euro road trip and saw an indicated 179mph on a ZX9R but i definitely feel a bit different in a car on the road, personally i think its just we are not used to travelling at those speeds regularly, on some of the quicker UK circuits though i saw 155mph in the VX, the first couple of sessions took a while for the brain to get up to speed but then it started to feel normal, probably also on track there is nothing close roadside as a visual guide.
  6. Depends on offset and how much camber you want to run, there is a sticky thread with loads of examples of what people are running.
  7. As a staunch supporter and pro debater for independence in the Scottish referendum thread, it would have been pretty ironic had you voted no and as pointed out many times in that thread, Scottish membership to the EU was never a given, so you would have been leaving the EU But to summarise: As a Scot you are not happy with Westminster being in "control" of Scotland, I am not happy with the EU being in "control" of Westminster and just as you believed Scotland would be fine without England, I believe the UK (eventually) will be fine without the EU, so we both wanted the same result, independence.
  8. Says the man who voted for his independence
  9. Found it https://www.stanceparts.com/
  10. If you want to raise just for speedbumps for example you can get small air cup adjusters, @lmc can give you the info as I forget where he got them or the make. BC's for the win
  11. Chuffed to bits for you dude, although not everything you wanted, pretty much a good win in my book, i had to compromise with my build which is often the way
  12. So your man/woman "in" the industry is saying, Tesco tankers fill up, take the tankers to their own stores, decant and leave it there till the price is right, go back with the tankers and refill to then decant at the forecourt. Apart from not being financially viable due the process required above the space required to store millions of litres of fuel is also not realistic, just looking from a logical point of view.
  13. But you wont believe anyone on here who has told you its fine? I get what you are saying, but usually people use substantiated evidence to support their argument, i.e Ekona Michelin tyres. If one our resident tuners @Mark@Abbey m/s @Jez @ H-Dev came on and said, its fine or the risks are exceptionally minimal, would you then use it? He may say its sh*t then we all will have to eat humble haggis
  14. ^^^ This! Least of all driving, how do we know those cars running tescos werent driven like they were stolen day in day out, run low on fuel sucking sh*t up from the bottom of the tank, had fuel filters/spark plugs/air filters changed. I am afraid its just one of those good old internet myths being perpetuated without anything being substantiated.
  15. You eat supermarket own crisps, you heathen
  16. ^^^ How did we ever survive before
  17. The Eu even has rules over pallets, thanks for reminding me how utterly farcical they are
  18. Tesco has been selling fuel for years, probably to motorists who have done hundreds of thousands of miles, is there any supporting evidence that those motorists cars have suffered as a direct result?
  19. I was making a point in referral to another post re contamination and it wouldnt stop me using a tesco because once in a blue moon there was a problem, any tanks, shell or tescos could get contaminated, you would pretty much be covered either way as it wont just be a single car with issues (as was the case here) and I seriously doubt either would want the bad press that they are causing a fuss for repair work. If folk regularly had problems with Tesco fuel that would be entirely different, but they dont
  20. I think the question re parents and how they would feel was answered if the news i heard on the radio today is to be believed, well 50% anyway, by all accounts her father agrees with the decision to revoke her citizenship.
  21. Or should they be mid 4 mirrors seeing as this was probably around way before that m3 mirror style. I am actually seeing more Nsx
  22. Nice new engine for free, no bad thing, a massive inconvenience granted, the modified bit is irrelevant, it was all cars that suffered.
