Okay, well start at the start then for those of us without crystal balls What does he do? When does he do it? When did it start? What did he say when you spoke to him about it? Details man, details!

He's a jobless wonder who does nothing so probably driven by boredom! So you haven't spoken to him yet then? Try that first, you might be surprised.

Not a good idea. Ignore the percentage rule, what you're actually doing is decreasing the amount of stagger front to rear, which is going to lead to an oversteery car for the sake of saving a couple of quid. The VUS are available in the correct sizes, and are a great tyre, so just get the right ones.

You tell them. I can see your reasoning, and in truth it's how it should work, however when you sign up to insurance you agree to tell them of any material change that would effect how they class you as a risk. Improving the brakes means you can go faster, which increases your chance of a bigger crash. It also makes your vehicle worth more, which increases the chance of it being stolen. You signed a legally binding document, and deciding afterwards which bits you do or don't feel like complying with doesn't really work. People are paranoid for good reason, as no-one wants to be left with a bill in the hundreds of thousands of pounds in the worst case scenario. If you're so sure that your insurer won't care, and are happy to argue that point with them, then why not tell them?

Well, I am from Essex!

That's mint, I'd love one for my MX-5! Where from?

Whilst I'd ignore an ST, I'd love a Kermit Green RS on the driveway

Petulant stroppy little sh*t, I'm so glad that Balotelli lost and hope he cries his eyes out tonight whilst having a w*nk into a cold bowl of spaghetti. Storming off at the end, embarrassment to his team mates who were the epitome of class in the face of defeat. Very magnanimous, and Italians everywhere should be proud of their team for their reaction after the final whistle. Very glad that Spain won it, no-one can doubt they are the best team in the world right now and they play the game exactly as we wish everyone would. I'd love to know how it must feel to watch your national team win trophy after trophy, and doing it with such style too. Viva Espana!

I was just sitting there trying to remember who I'd sold all my bits to, so that's one down at least!

If they're non-OEM, you must tell them. The least they can do is not care, the most is load your premium so much you'll wish you'd paid for OEM stuff

I think the Acle Straight could be over that.

So what sizes did you get?

Nothing is faster than a Corsa with the rear seats folded down. Nothing. I don't like the MP4-12C. It's ugly on the outside, and they've had to engineer character into the car because owners were complaining. I expected more from McLaren.

In the real world, ST. Easier to access the performance and more forgiving handing. I'd still rather drive the Zed.

BBC. Lawrenson is an utter *****, but he still has more charisma than anyone on ITV. I'd much rather Sky were allowed to show it too, that really would be something special then.

Wasn't that bothered. Fancied a new car, the Zed ticked the boxes, got my local dealer to get a few in and I bought one of those. I know what you mean though OP, that's exactly how I felt before buying the 911. Well, apart from picking holes in it, as I was too excited and didn't give two hoots at that point so was desperate to sign my life away!

Spain 2-0 up so far, Balotelli getting the hump, looking good so far

Definitely a warranty issue Expect it to happen again though, Nissan really don't use a decent coating on their wheels

Your Zed looks seriously awesome btw, love the all-black look

Welcome to the Internet.

Yes. Proof or GTFO. And what made you think that leaving out important details like that for your first post on here would be a good idea?

You sir, are a knob jockey of the highest order.

I didn't say every two weeks The methods I mentioned should be taken as preventative ones, not reactive ones. Injector cleaner goes in when you fill it up so takes 30 secs extra, 10K Boost can be done with the MOT or service. It won't eliminate it entirely, but it will make a huge difference. I can see your point though, but I guess I feel the benefits of a DFI engine are worth the downsides.

They're the only thing keeping you in contact with the road. Tyres degrade with age. A new set of tyres is about £500. An equivalent Mini is about £10,000. Armed with those bits of info, I'd say it's totally up to you. Vik is correct in what she says from a legal point of view, though.
