  1. thats true on council owned roads etc, but supermarket carparks are private property, so has no juristiction. so for the same reason if you get a fine from them for over staying your welcome in them liek some are doing now the most they can do is threaten you with baliffs, but they can;t actually use them as there is no legal basis for it. so you just put the letters in the bin.
  2. i love the XJ's but they rot out horribly and are not easy to maintain. they make my car look like a veritable bargain when it comes to maintanence
  3. completely true bocaaarck; its why i bought the XKR; the DB7 took styling cues from the jag and was built by the same people etc.
  4. we do our weekly shop on line at waitrose, but pop in on the run to the local supermarket for the odd bits. but i agree, i hate mixing with the commoners; they pi$$ me right off
  5. i'll be stag doo'ing it up there in august. depends on what your groups tastes are. I did a stag do a few years ago there. if you like indie music then there are lots of great indie clubs etc, Canal street is the gay hub of manchester, but its a really good night out there; straight or gay. theres also a few strip joints there as well. if you like mountain bikes you've got some great tracks on the door step. paintballing, go karting, loads of stuff round there.
  6. have you got welding equipment down there as well? i want to do some big style de rusting but just don't have the space. and having some moral support when you take power saws to a car would be good
  7. you need to spend a bit of your night down canal street,
  8. cheers for the heads up on that chesterfield i didn't know that
  9. Totally agree. Apart from the badge I could find something a lot more pleasing for 17 grand aston DB7
  10. i agree with you SMD but my idea doesn't give an option for voting in a mod. people can offer etc, but its still down to the team to say yay or nay, it should encourage the use of the report function button if you look at the REO's i swear there is only about 4 people who actually do anything. a drive to get new REO's is not a bad thing
  11. It's in the thread you linked yourself £140 on an exchange basis
  12. This is pretty self explanitory and saves me the effort of typing plus it has lots of pictures http://www.poleringsguide.se/english/
  13. i don;t have anything against her, body works in good condition if you know what i mean, but for some reason nope
  14. you'd need a wire brush attatchement for a drill emery cloth wet and dry paper running from very coarse to very fine a cotton ball attatchement for a drill and polishing compound polishing cloths and polish. or save all the hassle and get wasso to do it for you. worth every penny as its a major ballache
  15. don't like ferrari's they don't do anything for me, bit like cheryl cole. i know everyone else would give a testicle to have a go on either. but they just don't float my boat. both make the wrong noise
  16. the MR2 replicas are pretty good on a visual basis exterior wise. so much so that a footballer bought one by accident a while back for a lot of money would i have one...no would i own a replica ....yes but i'd build my own and it would probably be something like a GT40
  17. i know its a bit of a long read but if you follow the 16 pages i've never once said i want a democratic forum, in fact i've been in favour of the current system. but what i've tried to do is come up with a plan that would satisfy those that want to be more involved. without pushing for a system that does not fit with what the team want for the forum. i thought it was quiet clever. the team get some extra help without giving up any control or increasing peoples access, and those that want to be get the opportunity to feel involved and none of it really changes the dynamics of the forum i thought anyway?
  18. we're only trying for a child so we can park closer to the supermarket
  19. lol
  20. BM has photo evidece of this phenomenon. you could park in an empty car par, and some one will always park next to you.
  21. as traders go tarmac will look after you well when it comes to buying parts. he's one of the best traders around and he looks after his customers as if they were a long standing friend.
  22. those machine welds are very tidy
  23. you seem to be missing my point you know's i love you matt; if its a half empty car park then double parking for me isn;t an issue. but there have been a couple of occasions in full carparks with no spaces, and 1 numpty who's double parked. its made my pi$$ boil i feel your pain on the door ding front i've picke dup a couple as well; but it feels like a damned if you do and damned if you don't. if you were double parked in order to give you space for a disabled person to get in and out fo yur car then fair play
  24. brake bleeding can be a bit of an art on the Zed; if its not done in the right order it can be a bug&er for air locks. looking at the repair list it does make me wonder about that mechanic. possibly a little over exhuberant with the spanners. it should have been possible to drill out and re tap in new bleed nipples if they were that bad.
