  1. Ok thanks - that rules the Volks out then.
  2. Hope this wasn't prompted by my "spotted" note Just so used to seeing you with the Volks! Lol, you're to blame Leon! Meant to msg you actually, i take it that was you in Tesco's last month?
  3. Tesco's value white rum for me, with diet coke is all i drink nowadays... Would rather not drink dark rum, and never tried spiced...
  4. So... For the last few months i've been looking round at getting another second car to use for business trips etc, but i've just worked out how many business miles i've done in the last 2 years, and im only doing 3k a year My current second car is going to become my fiance's as soon as she passes her test so i cant rely on it much longer. However for 3k miles, sod it, i'll drive the zed if i need to as the expense of having a second car is huge compared to the minimal wear and tear 3k miles will result in. However it does leave me with one dilemma - what should i do for winter?? Im running Volks currently and the finish on them is perfect (in the fact that they have not been affected by any weather at all). I'll be honest in that i dont clean them as often as i should, but i wax them after every wash so they can be literally just given a once over with a sponge and they're mint again. Do you think the salt/frost will really damage their finish? Last year i bought a set of stock 18" wheels which i resprayed and had them on the zed over winter... but i did about 50 miles with them on before deciding the car looked SHITE and declared it SORN for 3 months as i was too embarrassed to drive it So... what should i do this year? As she stands now: As she'll look with the winters on...: How she looked briefly, whilst deciding what colour to go for on the refurb.
  5. Monaco GP is in May... perfect timing. Im considering doing this for mine, but there might only be a couple of us as im not sure many will afford it You can get standing tickets at Rocher for about 80 euros.
  6. Autosol works as well i think.
  7. ...but a 70% loan as the OP states... (actually, 130% APR according to this calculator!) A 10% bank loan would be far cheaper, and would result in you paying around £82 in interest. Agreed, but my point was, it will show on that Equifax data base thingy. Hmmm good point.

  9. Anyone know of anywhere in the northwest of England that i could go to and see this? I've tried stargazing from the roads leading up to buxton, but there's just far too much light pollution to see anything...
  10. Front parking sensors on and off
  11. Hey does this mean you'll be disappearing from the forum soon then...? i've been planning on ordering another canvass from you for ages and haven't got round to it yet...
  12. Why's the tax disc just stuck in the middle of the passenger side of the window?
  13. and a zed related one http://www.photoshoptroll.com/this-paint-on-my-car/
  14. Funny website. I like this one! http://www.photoshoptroll.com/wheel-replacement/
  15. Thats a shame... i reckon i'd have bought a set of 2nd hand rays if i could have had them finished in that.
  16. I used to despise the fuel prices, until i drove to the ring and realised we're signifficantly cheaper than most of europe. I was overjoyed to come home and pay £1.42 a litre!
  17. Can this finish be applied to used wheels, supplied by us? For example if i sent you my winter wheels, could you strip and refurb with this finish?
  18. Does anyone else get calls from claims companies saying they have details that you've had a car accident recently? I've had 2 of these calls recently, and they dont appear to be cold calls, as they say they have had my details passed onto them that i've been in an accident, which i haven't. I asked them for clarification on what details they have got, but they just said they dont have specifics other than i've been in an accident. Does anyone know if there's a free online register where i can check my car registrations to see if any accidents have been logged against my reg (i.e. if my car's been cloned?)
  19. This guy really makes me laugh. The ketchup sketch... 'i'll take the bottle'
