Kev946

couldnt resist this one only done 1900 miles it's like brand new, never been messed with.. not as cheap as yours I'm sure though Kev Good price considering, so you should sell at te price. I'm after much less for mine, whic now has 15k miles. I've heard though low mileage Ducati's can be risky so thene owner should get a full service, especially cam gaps.

That's what I'm after. I had an SRAD 750 and now fancy a K2/K3. Maybe even a 1000

so have I http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/ww ... =662501639 Bet mines cheaper. How much you selling it for Tim. In anaycase I thought you said you don't have anything to do with Italian bikes..

I've got a Ducati 996 BP for sale..

Glad you guys had fun and now damage done. First time I've ever heard of a Donington day with no accidents. Must have been a better class of drvier or less traffic... Rick if you have cooked your pads they are no good. I've done this and it's as if the glue has boiled away.

This was due to traction more than anything. Even big power Cossies struggle to get below 5 secs. Mid engine and modern suspension is what makes 4 secs possible. Oh and all the manufacturers nowadays are liars...

0-60 times are arbitory when they get this low though, and often a manufacturer exagerates. Maybe they are just being conservative.

Of course it does it's a retro 70's influenced car.... I get where he's coming from. The Camaro looks like a modern car with some retro styling themes. The Challenger just looks old and out of date. I like old and out of date, but then again I'm old and out of date....... At least modern reliability, well US reliability anyway..

Lotus seem to get involved with so many design concepts/prototypes not to mention problem cars, e.g. DeLorean, Subaru SVX, Isuzu Piazza to name a few.

Lotus?.... http://cars.uk.msn.com/News/car_news_ar ... id=7464830

I like it. Let's hope they can make it handle unlike the Mustang. Also bear in mind it will be about the price of a Zed for the 6.1 V8 for an import, albeit LHD....

A knob indeed.. Just shows how easy a car rolls when the wheels dig in. I've seen a few track day rolls at Macleans bend at Donington due to wheels digging into the gravel. An Escort Cossie even managed to forward roll on the same bend..

Have you driven the new mini. I had one on loan from the Lotus garage whilst my car was in for service. It was a Mini One. I really wanted to like the car but hated it....

I know but most of these so call mods actually loose power, inparticular the exhaust. I still stand by what I said, no way you can get 50 bhp by an ecu re-map and a few bolt ons with an NA car.

Nice to see you checking your mods, but with respect there's no way a re-map would make an extra 50 bhp on an NA car.

Reading the thread is erie.....shocking waste of lives and no one deserves to die this way. Diagram now showing the accident. http://www.ocala.com/apps/pbcs.dll/sect ... ory=news24

I've done Prince2 in a week. It's tough and hard work... What type of PM work do you two do? IT Business Systems Implementation, mainly Oracle ebs I am doing it that week But yay for me. It does seem like tough work, ive got all the course material already and its mind boggling. Im a Digital Media Project Manager, mainly specialising in operations. Cool.... Yes PRINCE2 in a week is tough. Make sure you spend every evening working on the book and you should be OK. We had 2 fails out of 10 people on our course and those 2 didn't put the effort in.

variety is the spice of life Kev Your speaking to the converted....

Wow Tim you change you cars more often than me..... Looks nice for the money though. Good luck..

Some of the lotus guys don't bother with a front plates or have a tiny one. One guy said he has no intention of fitting one on his 340R and has never been pulled...

Now then... The DVLA auction certain plates - the ones they know will generate a lot of revenue. CHR1S for example was around £100k I believe. The DVLA know damned well what that spells, they know damned well that someone is going to pay through the nose for it, and they also know damned well that it wil be spaced exactly as Ive just typed it. So, when the person does space it in that manner, the police can thn report them to the DVLA to have the mark taken away. Sounds like a money making racket to me. If the plates are not to be mis spaced, then why are the DVLA knowingly selling plates for higher prices that form words when spaced incorrectly or altered witht he use of screws etc. As the licensing body, the DVLA are by their very actions of pricing plates in this manner, encouraging and some may even say "promoting" criminal activity. If I were in the position where the police ever applied to the DVLA to have my mark withdrawn (unlikely as both mine are now legal), both the DVLA and the police would find themselves on the end of a court case based around the above, as in my book it is clear evidence of entrapment, conspiracy (between the DVLA and the police) to extract monies from the public, and conspiracy to commit crime by the DVLA. Id probably lose, as there would be no way either the DVLA or police could kiss goodbye to their repsective money earners from these private plate sales, but I would have a damned good go. I'm with you Chirs, but if the DVLA don't sell them some other toe rag will.
