  1. Cancel and send them back.
  2. My Karcher mixes the product in the crappy bottle before it goes through the lance, the bottle is located atop the main unit. Only my snow foam attachment on the end of the lance works in the way your appears too. What pressure washer do you have?
  3. I would never use that crappy wash bottle with a pressure washer. Mine is used only for rinsing, so the only product that goes through the machine is water. A decent foam lance will be fine on any pressure washer.
  4. You'll still be able to get them then I reckon, could take a while to use all the stock up. Or you could buy a new set of rears now and put them somewhere safe.
  5. Somewhere about now, BM. I suspect the 453 will be a significantly better tyre than the 452, much like the jump between 040 and 050A. Means I'll have to find another tyre to pick on now
  6. Given the goodies on that car, and considering Cat D status, that's not actually too bad price-wise as long as it's straight.
  7. Congrats, you're qualified!
  8. Seriously, this. You can either touch them up after every single drive, slowly working your way into insanity, or you could just get the front bumper resprayed for a couple of hundred quid every year or so.
  9. If it wasn't for the comedy arches, that would be a real sleeper.
  10. Depends. How good are you at cracking one off whilst on the move?
  11. I'm glad it's not just me that does that then
  12. You do realise that their sponsorship just ran out/expired. Also google thorney and vx220 or Vxr Hence the winky face. Anyone who knows JT knows he's a little bit "bloody-minded", for want of a better word. I would say more but he has this nasty habit of suing any forum who dare to post anything about him that's not nice, so I'll leave it there. Thorney tuned my old VXR220 for me. It was fine, they did a good job, it was after that when all the stuff about dodgy rollers on the dyno for the NA cars and that M3 came out.
  13. Not a fan, then? Haven't heard it myself, don't listen to the radio any more.
  14. Stick with us man, we're only having a laugh.
  15. *massive face palm* How is searching for something as common as Rays LESS hassle than searching for a car in a specific spec within such a small search radius?
  16. THEN YOU SHOULD'VE BOUGHT A NEW CAR 4 YEARS AGO Are you never going to change tyres on it? Or brakes?
  17. SO BUY SOME RAYS FOR IT THEN FFS
  18. Buy a car that's £500 less because it hasn't got Rays, then put that money towards a set of Rays. Job's a carrot
  19. Just look further afield. Plenty matching your spec not in Scotland.
  20. But you need to spend at least £35 to get that much off though... I reckon the best thing to buy is the toilet paper, as it's the only thing that won't go off and isn't twice the cost of everything else (the Fairy powder). Bulk buys on that anyone...

    18" Tyre choices

    As long as there's no repairs in them, and they look structurally sound, then I see no reason why not to.
  22. No-one's talking about import taxes though. I'm talking about a tax direct on the showroom price, paid for by the end user. If a car is made in the UK it costs you £500 less than a car made abroad, that kind of thing.

    18" Tyre choices

    If you're happy with the 050As, I'd stick with them. Two rears will be cheaper than a whole new set of budget tyres. 452s are being phased out now anyway (thank god), but have noticeably less grip and feel in all conditions than the 050As. Still better than super cheapy tyres, though. Vredestien Ultrac Sessanta are miles better than the 452s, and are only a fraction more expensive. They're a no-brainer at that end of the market if you do decide to replace all four tyres.
