Ah fair dos matey, didn't realise you had them on your Zed as well. Must be getting old and losing my mind

Working with young people. Not tiny kids who can't string a sentence together, but from say the ages of 8-18. Helping the more troubled ones, whether that's from a background of poverty or just because they're a typical angry teen, to become a decent human being. I suspect that's an incredibly rewarding thing to do, it just doesn't pay enough to be a true goal in regular life. Or teach learner drivers how to drive for fun, and the basics of car physics so that when they pass their test they can go for a hoon but have some idea of what's going to happen. Truth is I've looked into this, but I struggle to make a business case for it. Lottery win would sort that out though.

From someone who has been there and done the Tredwear thing, don't do it unless you're 100% sure of the lettering and 100% sure you're never ever ever ever going to take them off again. Also be prepared for them to look grubby after 100 miles and then never regain their shine no matter what you do. They do look cool though, I must admit. Well, dependant on what they actually say of course.

Tbh Yoko would’ve been asked to supply a tyre for the test, and they chose not to. Only they know why.

Nope, and probably rightly so. They're a bit track-biased than the others, this is a road tyre test and although the AD08R are brilliant, I think they'd fall far behind on the wet tests and would get an unfavourable score because of that.

Trust me, those white seats look gorgeous in the flesh against the blue. Utterly stunning.

Midnight Blue is classier tbh. And I say that as an ex Azure owner. Azure is nice, but having an HR is betterer.

MPS4, not MPSS now

Oh no, I’d keep your appointment with J17 just to waste their time like they waste everyone else’s

I wouldn’t trust any of their branches full stop. Although tbh any dealer you buy from will give a certain amount of risk. It’s all about doing your homework on the car, checking everything is right before you make the deal and even more so upon collection, then contacting them immediately if you spot a problem. When spending £10K on something I wouldn’t have an issue driving to Scotland, if it was the right car. £100 in fuel is nothing at that point

Don’t buy from Junction 17 unless you’re prepared for a fight and are comfortable using the English legal system. Revup is a good engine, 500 more revs than the regular DE which makes it more fun, however approx 5-10% of those engines have serious oil drinking issues. Your call on the risk there.

Oh I forgot about that... *scribbles name from Christmas card list*

Looks like it’s working well fella, although that’s the most boring video I’ve ever watched! Try some nighttime stuff next?

Short answer, yes. Very bad idea. The odd pop here and there is cool, but a road car doing it all the time sounds ridiculous imho.

That's okay mate, they couldn't get any lower

Indeed. However I tend not to trust other people on the road, hence I make sure that even when they run out of grip, I don't

Have you tested the battery and alternator yet? That's literally the very first thing to try, both Sargara and myself have mentioned this now.

Aye, seems so. Before anyobe else rushes out to buy the 510 because they finished fourth, it's worth noting they were closer in points to 8th than 2nd.

You ordered the 510s?

Extensions fitted to the knob on the top of the shock, and bring them up through the plastics.

Jeez dude, just trying to maybe adjust your reality so it actually sells. Really no need for the attitude. Still £50 more expensive than buying direct, plus then they wouldn't have to deal with someone with a chip on their shoulder Whatevs though buddy, I'm out and GLWTS

Whilst I see your point, you can't really expect someone to pay £100 more unless they're desperate for the LD part.

You need to get the battery and alternator tested.

Sounds pretty awesome too
