Happy birthday young-un - and make sure you give your Rosie a birthday treat with a little exercise

On the move

If you are not aware, around 75% of Local Council services are funded by the annual government grant (everyone's tax). The remaining 25% income via Council Tax has to be shared out - e.g. see here: http://www.isitfair.co.uk/PT%20CT%20Scam.html So the Council Tax we pay only pays for a relatively small proportion of those services we either value...... or don't.

Suicide is legal - so someone like PC David Rathband decided that was what he wanted. Very, very sad, but he retained the physical ability to do it. Tony Nicklinson (that prompted this thread) has decided he wants to end his life, but he phyisically can't. In America, and no doubt other countries where capital punishment applies, the execution is witnessed with contingenices in place should a reprieve be sanctioned at the last moment. Why then, can't Tony Nicklinson be granted his wish by being asked before the 'act' was underataken if that is what he still wanted as he has the ability to communicate his wish. Witnessed by a senior police officer (and others as necessary) who have had no prior connection with Tony of his family so they can verify in writing that his wish was granted........... dare I say it, as everyone else seems to use it these days, he has been granted his "human rights". I really don't know how the circumstances where the 'patient' is not able to communicate is helped but I'm simply responding to this latest case and I would have thought it not too difficult for the law to be re-written to cover these situations and dare I say stop the need for a growing number to leave this Country to go Dignitas and the like. What a sad situation that is - you can't end your life you home country (other than by killing yourself) due to Laws that are completely out of touch with reality. Not a happy subject but I suspect there is a growing support by what I hear discussed in private - that we can keep people alive but if they decide their quality of life has gone their physical incapacity prevents their choice over others seems so unfair. It borders on a breach of equal opportunities in my book and I am certainly no supporter of the PC brigade drum bashers. The effect on family and friends can also devastating and have a great effect on their lives, as I have personally seen. No one likes to see a loved one struggling as pills etc keep them alive - often for many years with both the sufferer and the relatives' quality of life all but evaporated.

Its the combination for me but as that combination would probably cost more than what my 370 is worth by the time it was all done.............. Wheels alone - £5k+ is more than what I would want to pay for a set

+1

Engine will usually tickover at slightly higher revs with the air-con on. May just need a re-gas/topping up - a whole lot cheaper than a new compressor

No, just affects these........ :D

Very useful guide and pics here that includes the handbrake adjustment viewtopic.php?f=35&t=16773&hilit=handbrake+adjustment

How things have moved on, looking at the rim/tyre profiles on that Dino ......and compare with my favourite the Mclaren F1, which is no spring chicken now

Vultures note

In very safe hands, whether going straight or sideways

I would lose on all counts to Will then, and he will have a younger 370 and Stillen to enjoy I might save a few bob in lost hats though

To do what you are doing and keeping this thread going is just awesome - credit to you both

I wonder how many cars fail the MOT at these places that offer tempting prices, simply knowing they will make up the shortfall by some "alledged" failing that owners such as you Paul have no way of verifying if it was actually an issue......or not.

Pleased to help Will - two years on and I am still loving the noise the Stillen makes and it farts nicely on the overun now it has aged - rather like its owner A few more pics of the day Pride of place You look kinda pleased Will And Graham is clearly impressed Nice shine And the business end

You teaser And its low

Well I guess this has got to be a good news thread car sold and new family member, but hope it gets even better once you start you new life across the pond. And we wouldn't have it any other when it comes to you being around on the forum

I reckon a smurf is too quick for you

You should rename the thread - "especially for vultures"

What is the garage name, as just the address may not ring bells with anyone?

Women! You know what to say the next time she has her hair done differently

Oh , go on then you have pushed me into saying Happy Birthday as there is a drink in it Any more of those shots of yours going too Hope you have had a great day mate, despite the side on here letting you down, again

That video is almost certainly when the engine is cold to get the low and high readings shown. With both my previous 350s when the engines were at full running temperature the guages would show @ idling just below the first segment mark (approx 20psi) and @ 70mph in 6th on the 60psi (second) mark. Only when you are really giving it the beans would the pressure move up to the third mark when at running temperature.

Thats the ps - bhp at the fly is about 309. The dyno graphs are taken at the hubs - hence the lesser bhp readings, but as a rough guide I would say that is about 315 at the fly. According to Mark@Abbey, he says about 325 at the fly. That's good
