Without his address on, it would've been fine.

So, P90D. Ludicrous mode. Launch mode. Takes 45 mins to pre-heat the battery before you can actually engage it. Same with the X?

Dude, you've openly said that he's a 'friendly' tester who knows how to go about getting a decat car to pass, when it clearly cannot ever pass regardless of emission outputs. Don't get me wrong, we all know a guy and it's very handy and I don't give a hoot if a car passes emissions or not, but neither would I do someone who's risking their livelihood a disservice by openly telling the world who they are! If you cannot see why that might possibly not be a good thing to share, then you're beyond help. Just remove the picture, or at least redact it ffs.

I bet he's really chuffed you've advertised the fact he gives out dodgy MOTs to the entire Internet, risking his tester's licence.

Maybe they sit in the same office?

You don't have that long left in life to have that question answered by that man.

Oh mate, I'm so sorry to hear that I'm sure he knew how much you loved him though, and it sounds like you did the right thing by making the hardest choice.

Doesn't it just? In fact, I might be tempted to pull it on that basis. Except if it is a plug post it's not a very good one, as they don't understand how important protection is and their website has the lorem ipsum stuff at the bottom still Also, appalling use of apostrophes.

Oh man, you should've just taken it back and made it their problem to sort. Name and shame at least! But no, it's not a huge job by any means. Just find a decent garage to do it, and I don't mean just Nissan main dealers unless you supply your own lube. Any competent place will be able to sort this for you.

Or 24 hour PCars/Forza races. On your own.

Time to get drunk!

Depends on wax (or sealant for @SuperStu ), but typically it will provide protection anywhere between 3-6 mths, much longer if you use a coating (like 2-5 years). It'll turn a 3 hour wash into a 30 minute one.

That's fine. Usually anything below 120c is okay when dealing with oil temps, although I don't know the exact temp that a 370 goes into limp mode at. I guess it's quite easily from the many "get an oil cooler!" posts we see on here regularly!

You must do an awful lot of miles to need 3-4 hours of cleaning every fortnight! Ah, hang on, no wax. That explains it. Why go to all the effort and then not bother with another 20 mins putting wax on to protect it?! Seems utterly daft to me.

Well, that's my day sorted.

You're buying a piece of adhesive. That's all. You have to source your own physical numberplate, so you could buy a flexible one (as shown on their website), or you use your regular one that's on your car now. Obviously a flexible one will contour as shown, a solid one will not. Basically the way to do it would be to either buy another physical plate with whatever you wanted on it then stick that over your existing one, or buy a flexible one and stick that wherever you want to remove at show time.

Just sent one back too.

We're currently babysitting this monster: Ten week old kitten called Bruce, seen here in full-on puffy mode after meeting one of our other cats for the first time. Getting on fine now, chasing each other quite happily. Shame we have to give him back on Friday, I'd quite like to keep him really. He is a bit ugly though

If it's too loud, you're too old Coolant tank install looks a very decent job, especially with the OEM-style hoses.

You're right, this is absolutely on a par with whether or not the new A4 is better than the current 3 series or not. Or whether the new Fiesta ST is going to be the new king of the small hatch!

Put it back together, crack the windscreen, have it replaced for £75, then get them to repair the sensor as clearly they must've broken it that time

Is there a difference then? Or is it just a Fairlady/350Z-type thing?

I'm genuinely thinking of buying that myself, looks great fun!

BUY THIS STEVO

Ah that's a shame then. I haven't seen the cover you mention, but can you not wedge it off with a plastic trim removal tool? Worse case you break it, I bet they're not that expensive to replace.
