  1. had another listen out for it today. It's in any gear, louder at low speed then gets better as you get faster and the engine drowns it out a bit.
  2. what about the other bit that stops you seeing in the boot, not the bit that fills the hole in the bar, the top bit?
  3. What's happened to him - he's not been on here in a long while and was one of the few people local to me!

    Carbon Alloys

    when the corsa boys get their cheapo lookalikes you won't regret not having those carbon ones!
  5. I hope the first picture is the before shot Stuey! As for the aerial - so much better than the liquorice stick (someone else called it that recently and I agree)!
  6. I wave to every one I see and nearly all have waved back.
  7. Now that is the cleverest use of the word 'almost' I've ever seen - well done!
  8. Mm, not sure if I can drive and think about all of that at the same time! I'll give it a go when I'm next out.

    Sandpaper

    if you were going to try something as drastic as fine sandpaper what about a really fine grade steel wool? I have some really fine stuff that I've used on exhaust pipes without it stratching but you can get even finer than that. At the end of the day if it goes wrong you can still get the wheel refurbished for about £50.
  10. I can live with the noise until I have to get new ones as long as there's nothing wrong with the car!
  11. yes i have. I wondered if it was tyre noise, I only hear it when I'm going at a steady slow speed. Do you think that's it then? My son started scaring me by saying wheel bearings!
  12. When I drive at relatively low speed (30 ish) in say 4th gear I can hear a repetative throbbing type noise coming from somewhere. It's one of those noises that could be perfectly normal - any ideas?
  13. I'm 39 and have a dodgy knee so what do you think?
  14. You mean to say that string fellows is a strip club?
  15. pity its so far away, I've always fancied a nosey round there. Watch out nobody puts a fiver in your pants Louis!
  16. deja vu! Just been trying to organise this on another site and its a nightmare!
  17. I waved at a guy in a black one the other day - he just glared at me in that "how dare you have the same car as me" style. He looked like an estate agent........ (no offence to other estate agents)

    never realised you lot were such fashion gurus!
  19. Tell the Hamster I love him!
  20. Ouch indeed! You must have been gutted! Is it going on the insurance?
  21. I think it's quite cool that it resulted in you having a chat at the traffic lights and taking an interest in each others cars. Very refreshing!
