  1. Wow, that's a monster. I wonder whether it can really handle that power....
  2. Wheels are looking gorgeous, Jay. You're really teasing us with this one.
  3. I'd have bought the car on the styling alone - everything else is a bonus!
  4. I reckon he has to oust Val as president on the basis that his "proper wheels" probably make up 30% of the value of his car!
  5. This was at Geneva and its stunning. If they can make it drive well and put the wheel on the correct side I would be seriously interested.
  6. +1
  7. I think the fact that they are forged will make all the difference to this chap...
  8. Thank you all guys and Nixy for your kind words. Me strict? Never!! Now where's Sarnie Yes, Sir, Mr Beavis, Sir....
  9. It is dont worry it better bloody had be, as thats the bible of my life...... even though I live up north, I get aaaaappp (southern accent you see). Go darn the caff, to have some breakfast (never cook anything me you know governer). Go an wash all me clothes in the launderette (whilst havin a good gossip while I'm there) Pop into the pub/caff for some lunch. Finish me shift on the stall. Then pop into the local for a few pints till closing time..... Have a fight on the way home........ Repeat everyday of the week....... Please tell me I'm not the only one who lives his life by this realistic bible??? You forgot the bit where a fat old slapper with dangly earrings imparts words of great wisdom to you and generally steers you in the right direction........
  10. It is dont worry Thank god for that. Next you'll be telling me that TVR's aren't reliable.
  11. Eastenders isn't real!!!!!
  12. I thought the LE37T's were discontinued ages ago, Adam?
  13. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default ... ryId=16532 Well done the Mail on Sunday.....
  14. Congratulations, old son!
  15. Yep, a completely random pic of Tim's car. He doesn't even have those lights!
  16. The consensus from the motoring press is not that its been "made worse". Well from V10 to V8, 520 bhp to 414 bhp, 0-60 4.3 to 3.8, lower torque of 376 down to 276 lb-ft, top speed down from 198 to 181 mph, weight up from 1430 to 1560 kg. All suggest to me that they've taken a great car and made it worse, but still a great car in its own right i'm sure. Again, just like the Cayman when Porsche took out the LSD to keep cost/ performance down I know its not mean't to be a direct competitor and that its supposed to be cheaper but a client of mine has just bought one for over £90k which is Gallardo money. Performance stats don't tell the whole story, of course. The fact that it is being touted as better than the 911 suggests to me that they've taken a great car and made another great car in a different class. There's still £40k plus between them on list price (for a base Gallardo not the SE) and I'm sure that there are plenty of ways to add to Gallardo's price with extras.
  17. there used to be a couple selling lucky heather in the centre of manchester. Looked like a right pair of tramps. They once came up to me and asked me to buy some lucky heather. I said 'It aint brought you much luck as it' and walked off Any reason why you were speaking with a Cockney accent, me Old China?

    Tyres

    Most people with 19" rims run 245/35 and 275/35.
  19. The consensus from the motoring press is not that its been "made worse".
  20. Ditto....where did you get the tires from and what are they??!! I got my 19 inch Pirelli's for less than £500 Are you suffering from insomnia, Sarnie?
  21. Get some 19" wheels, mate. Seriously, the photos don't do them justice.
  22. I can't see anyone passing up a shotgun ride in the Lambo, mate. £20 each When are you and PJ coming to Liverpool so I get a ride in the Tango Terror?
  23. Yes I changed mine. IMO the 18's are swallowed by the arches once the nismo kit is added. Some nice 19's with an aggressive offset will bring the wheels out of the arches. If you look at one of your pics, the rear wheels are inside the arches. Mine looked like this: All IMO of course You must have got some expert advice on those offsets, mate. Perfecto!
