  1. I'm feelin that collection H5 It doesn't mean I haven't got some other more questionable stuff, extending to Rod Stewart and Katie Melua. That better mbs?? (I have got some Genesis and Phil Collins in there too!)

    Nice cars, just a shame they haven't redesigned the things in the last 30 years!
  3. yep, on something like this it will be free fitting, how much better can it get. Being 300 miles further south!
  4. It is a tough one, but off the top of my head it's between.... Favourite song of all time: UK Apache w. Shy FX - Original Nuttah / MJ - Billie Jean Favourite music video: MJ - Smooth Criminal / 50 Cent - P.I.M.P. Favourite artist: DJ Hype / MJ Current favourite combination: Chemical Brothers - Salmon Dance.
  5. Welcome to a world of motoring with a chance of people letting you pull out of side roads!
  6. No chance I'm afraid Neo. In my letter to the MD of NMGB where I got the wheels done, the leather wearing was still flatly refused. If you get a good dealer, you may be lucky..... What do the NISMO ones look like Phil...??
  7. Am I right in thinking the fly wheel and passenger electrics are the expensive bits in that list?? 4 clutches seems a bit much. Not bad at all given the mileage though. Why a new door card though??
  8. Do you have a list of the parts that you've had to have replaced in that time??
  9. Welcome! Have an Elise and a Zed. I'm 6'1" and it's not problem getting in the Elise, you just have to be able to bend at the waist and have good hip joints! Once in, it's fine. But it's no daily driver or relaxing drive home when the day is winding down. The Zed can be a bit of both. As for the Beemer, sory, but
  10. I know what you are saying but it looked like Kimi went in too deep on the 1st corner, locked up and that was why he was so slow. What I couldn't understand was why Hamilton never went to the inside when Massa cut across him, Kimi was belting up the outside and Alonso was trying to get up the inside. At the start Alonso was the main rival and I would have thought Hamilton would have decided that to keep Alonso behind him, pull out in front of him, the fact Massa pulled out in front of Hamilton really should have forced Hamilton in doing this. Who cares if Ferrari are leading one, two at that stage (before the hydraulic issue was a factor). Granted, but Kimi didn't have to go in deep, he was comfortably alongside Massa thanks to him easing off just after the start. It all worked a bit too well to take the leader as far down the order as possible to the best possible advantage to those that could make the most of it.....
  11. That's what I would of done in the hope that Alonso might do something stupid and take Hamilton out. Ferrari couldn't of dreamed of a better scenario with Hamilton going off on the 4th corner and a box full of neutrals a little later. Guy But Alonso had positioned himself to be on the OUTSIDE at the second corner which is not where he would've wanted to be. I agree in getting them to try and take each other out. I was willing the BMW to do the same to Alonso!!
  12. Am I the only one who thought there was some sort of collusion beyond just Ferrari team work at the first corner?? It looked very much to me that after Massa had got across in front of Hamilton at the start and then eased off to get Kimi past him (fair enough, team work) he then lifted off on the exit of the first corner so Alonso got past him....... However, Kimi is a good driver, and it wasn't meant to be this year. Was a crap weekend for British sport though.
  13. Don't you have an Elise? Oh yeah!! 9. 1999 Lotus Elise (Nautilus Blue) 10. 2004 Nissan 350Z GT (Gun Metal)
  14. No, that one still has the MR2 badges on the back of it! I wonder what sort of person buys those things!!!
  15. http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/260735.htm It starts off silly of course, but intrigue made me read it..... The final line cracked me up!
  16. Forgot bikes:- 1. Raleigh BMX with white mag wheels 2. Raleigh Lizard 18 speed (stolen) 3. Canondale with CAD frame.
  17. Mine is as follows:- 1. 1986 Ford Escort 1.1 (Beige) 2. 1983 Ford Fiesta MkII (Ceramic Blue) 3. 1989 Volvo 440 1.7 (Petrol Blue) 4. 1996 Volvo 440 LE 1.9 TD (Olive Green) 5. 1997 Volvo S40 2.0 (Blue) (I slightly broke this one and went back to number 4!) 6. 2003 Ford Focus 1.6 (Ink Blue) 7. 1995 Volvo 440 1.8i (Green) 8. 1996 Volvo 440 2.0 GLT (Dark Red) 9. 2004 Nissan 350Z GT (Gun Metal) From car number 4 I have had two cars, so a mix of 4 to 8.
  18. I nearly bought a Cayman S after a lengthy drive in one. It wasn't until I took 5 minutes out from doing the paperwork and went outside to look at it and had the Zed parked next to it, that I decided it was fugly and I couldn't justify the premium over the Zed. Between the two though, most would go for the Porker, but I would like a drive in a Europa S.

    Kev's New Car

    Good choice Kev, you won't regret it! It will be hideously fast both in a straight line and round the twisty stuff. Great colour too, might as well let people know you're there!!
  20. Then spin round 3 times clockwise, 2 times anti-clockwise and throw a pinch of salt over your shoulder Then when throughly dizzy, get a replacement to the crappy BOSE (something like Pioneer, Alpine etc), a PAC-ROEM, a fascia adapter and be ever more happy with much better sound and no lost CDs! You know too!!

    Kev's New Car

    Lotus Exige S or a Caterham Supersport?
  22. Leave the car out in whatever sunshine we may have later, get the car warmed slightly (and the headunit) and try hitting AM/FM, then CD, then load. Then try the eject.....
  23. How else do you think they get American cars round the corners?!
