i'd either cut the middle square out or paint it black

yes

sounds like he's run out of money

she's good

I'd be interested to see if everyone got the changes they wanted to the law if they were still happy 10 years down the road. the only reason i say this is that if you visit countries that are heavy police states the people are unhappy and trying to push for a more western style of politics. i agree that the police should be allowed to get on with their jobs, i agree that people like police and teachers should have back some of the powers they used to have. people/students know we/the police can;t do as much as we used to. i'm a strong believer that if you commit a crime you leave your rights at the door. and if something happens to you while commiting a crime; well its your own fault you shouldn't have been there in the first place.

evidence is important, its what puts criminals away and its what stops joe public going to prison or being wrongly convicted. the law works both ways, if you remove the need for evidence whats to stop me accusing someone of theft with no evidence. and then being locked up for no reason what so ever. thats called a communist state yes the system can be frustating some times but if you play the game so to speak it works for you not against you.

i agree that if you commit a crime i think you should leave your civil rights at the door when you break in. same with alot of the human rights laws which have been abused to benefit the criminal. The UK law system is one of the oldest and the best. although its not always seen to be doing the best job the laws have been designed to protect you, but sometimes this means that criminals may not always get the right deal. there are major issues with the US system, and also if joe public starts tooling up so will the criminals until you end up with a gun crime isse like the states. at the moment firearms crimes are fairly low and few and far between. just because your packing doesn't detere people, if it did wouldn't the US crime figures be alot lower?

you could still shoot some one and get away with it. prime example is that farmer who went to prison after shooting that young lad when he was burgled. the reason he didn;t get away with it was he shot him in the back as the lad was escaping. the gun had done its job at scaring the intruder out, the owner took it to far when he shot him in the back. if he'd shot him in the chest because the burglar was coming towards him i think it would have been a different story. at most he probalby would have got a manslaughter charge with no punishment.

your primary goal should be to get out of the house if you feel endangered. the police will tell you not to confront criminals as you don't know if they have a knife or a gun. but... in a situation where you feel there is no escape as long as you can prove reasonable force; you can defend yourself. this also covers minimum force and excessive force. basically if they were to attack you and you hit them, then thats reasonable force. if they went to hit you and you shot them, then thats not resonable force. or if you knocked them out, and then continued to repeatedly beat them on the floor with a bat, then thats excessive force. its the same when i was a doorman, and its a grey area and one you don't really wont to cross into as it can become their word against yours. you also don;t want to police to come round the corner when your still hitting them, as a police officers report is classed as accurate evidence. and if the criminal looks like they are the victims its you that might face charges. i know we'd all like to beat 10 bells out of criminals but at the end of the day its just a car, its insured, you can always buy another. when your dead; your dead. insurance does pay for a new life.

its like the cheryl tweedy of the car world, most people think she's sexy, and both are highly strung, high pitched and whiney doesn't do a lot for me. as for the engine, an F1 inspired turbo'd V8 isn't really going to be a bad move.

DA polishers are fairly idiot proof to be honest, if it was a rotary then yes get pro to do it.

clutch is normal, but if you want me to take a look for you i'm down between ipswich and woodbridge.

Rich, You must live in a leafy backwater village! When you live in birmingham, you NEVER go to bed with the door unlocked i currently live in one of the lowest insurance brackets in the country, the sufoolk police constabulary head quarters are round the corner, its pretty safe round here. we lock up at night etc and our door is pretty solid. but yes sleepy backwater housing springs to mind. i did used to live in coventry in possibly one of the highest insurancve brackets in the country at the time. where you used to dismantle everything in your car, leave the glove box open and empty, and use 2 crook locks. we actually used to leave the cars unlocked. saved them damaging the locks. they could get in see there was nothing to nick and leave the car alone (they weren't the best thiefs, so 2 crook locks were generally enough of a deterant.

thats not good. thing is why should you have to lock your own door, yes it makes sense, but it seems gone are the days you could go to bed with the door unlocked.

i love the blue that VW use on the R32's

love the front cover and rear cover, and you've got some great shots that show the quality of your work off. only thing i would say is shame the back grounds aren;t a little more interesting on all the other cars. but either way, it shows the quality of your work off really well

bloody part timers

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL a company that blames a car for being wonky and not their build quality, something that gets as hot as the manifolds and costs so much to fot and remove i'd want a quality brand in there to make sure its a fit once only job.

or a very sharp chisel and a mallet and you can nip them off that way. but drilling is easiest.

Was already ruined, looks ugly as sin the engine might do it a favour not a fezza fan, appreciate them, but they don't tickle my fancy. its like the old lambo or fezza; scooby or evo etc. i'm a lambo and evo man.

never played the game but that end bit made me laugh

GLWTS

they seem to offer ECU remapping as well, not sure i'd want them playing with my engine maps also tempted to inform hexis, as they seem to be one of their suppliers, not sure they'll want their name branded on their website with workmanship like that.

i'll have to go back and check the P60 for the additional payments. as its gone through PAYE, and they take tax and NI out of it, so maybe i didn't notice, but they must have done SL as well. its only a small amount of about £500 for the year for extra teaching in school etc, but by the time the tax mans had it etc its not even close to that amount
