Jacko

Ahhhhh that new car feeling. Well Kev, I know how you'll be feeling I've since the 6 series in certain colours/specs and sometimes it works and they look nice, other times I not so sure. But glad you happy mate..... For me personally, could never buy a BMW, just have way too much of an issue with the general fraternity that buy 'em. Obviously present company excluded. Just please, don't sit on the motorway outside lane at 70 with two empty lanes, or bomb up behind someone flashing away But hope you love it mate and keep posting....

Im with Direct Line So did you find that when for example you put a different set of wheels on or exhaust, that you premium kept going up and up each time you tell them something?

Dorian, Who do you use? Obviously with me starting to mod it now, I'm going to have to decide what I do here. Just wondering if I'm with someone and then say I've done this, as to whether they will stop it etc, or it jumps for certain things. Which company you with? I'm wondering who are mod friendly?

mmmmm thats a good interesting point.....

Oh dear, wait till Val sees that...... He was quizzing the guy from Sumo about Carbon bonnets. And bought a Zed car porn mag (some modding catalogue from Japan) to look.... How much was it Tim at the show?

Nah wasn't me then mate. Sorry

Hi chaps, Yeah it was a fantastic weekend, was really good to meet some more new peoples faces from names on here! In response for Val's offensive comments! 1) Oh poo..... I've done it again! - It was Liam's fault as he twisted my arms..... 2) That was Val's fault. But I defo know what kit I want in about 5 years when pay everything else off! 3) I knew we should have tested that tent. Anyway, I was just supervising and getting Liam to do some work for a change! 6) Sitting RIGHT UNDER the fireworks was fantastic...... I kept expecting to get a burnt out rocket on my head! 8) How cool, to get our nice little stickers on the Sumo drift car, right under the driver's name! And for my own little note, thanks for Martin for all his hard work, letting me play photographer for 15 mins with his very nice expensive camera (another thing I want now ). Thanks to Bob, the forum BBQ chef! ...... top work fella, I was stuffed for ages. Thanks to Chris & Val for setting everything up. Thanks to Mike and Mark (Max) for letting me use their products (as I couldn't fit any in the car) after everyone cleaner their cars, so I had too...... Oh and thanks to Liam for his wheel advisory service! The weather was a bit interesting, but to say how bad it went on that Sat afternoon, then at least we escaped without incident! Good to meet some of the guys who I've not met before, too many to mention but everyone was great Sure will remember more later and post pics up when I can resize etc....

Hi mate, If you going to speak to Paintshield, then make sure you look at our discounts section as we have an agreement with them. I'd seriously suggest you do it before you beloved gets chipped..... Oh and nice to see you performing the manufacturers running in period propely...... 135mph!

Hi mate, Good to meet you. I came over to speak to Martin about the stickers when you were sat in his car. He is 350zNismo on here....... You were talking about mpg at the time! Anyway, glad you joined so soon...... look forward to meeting up again soon.

Yep, thats the way I did it as well. Much less hassle....... just undo, then you can always use some needle nose pliers to help ease the holder the right way around.......

I know, in hindsight it probably wasn't the best for the engine being bounced off the limiter..... but hey ho! Was good fun though making a racket..... we even got on JAE TV for that! Be interesting to see how it comes out on Bob's vid as well

Yeah was good to meet you too flirt! I liked what you'd had done to the Rays, kept telling a few peeps..... I saw you do a runner in the monsoon..... you should have hung around for a while, the sun came out later........ the next day

Guys, Just to let you know that when I got home last night and had a rest for a while (as was shattered) then I thought i'd come online and see some the reaction to JAE and upload pics etc..... Anyway, found out that my wireless router had blown up over the weekend (nice plastic melt in the top) and I have no internet access at home So might not be online as much for the next couple of days until I source another..... I'll post as much from work as possible, but the pics may take a little longer..... just thought I'd let you in case you didn't see me as much etc.. Sod's law, more money....... just can't seem to stop spending it at the mo!

Barry was it going the opposite way to you? Or the same..... AS I'm pretty sure that I was on a bit of the A6 coming home from JAE yesterday...... saw a silver convertable going the other way with a couple in but didn't get chance to flash/wave etc

Looks like the should give it a push off the end of the cliff in the last pic!

That wasn't even worth the effort of you typing that!

Ooooh a rare one! is it a coupe or Roadster and where are you in the world?

lol Chris, do you want a new pack of straws to keep grasping at?? But we all know what you meant mate Oh and Welcome Dave. Get one bought, you know it makes sense. I mean, if the only thing that you didn't like was the key, then you are sorted ain't ya!

wise words mate....

Happy Birthday mate..... Was it 40th?

I keep saying I'm going to get a decent digital camera, as really like photography, keen to start doing some.... Is the Canon EOS 350D a decent purchase then? Would you recommend it?

Ok fair point..... it was bloody lazy of us not to just click on that little number [1]

The heats (for each type) are on Sat. Then finalists have to be available for the Sunday......

Will do Jacko, but I wont have my car till september Oh dear, feel sorry for ya. But I'm impressed that you've started the modding plan already by buying loads of gear. Commitment for ya!

Aye should be. The newer phones should be more aware of differing BT connections etc. Good luck and let us know....
