Sounds about right as a trade in tbh. Dealer needs to make a profit somewhere, so they'll a grand and a half on that and be prepared to be haggled down the £500.

Pop a cable tie underneath and trim it, it will hold the gaiter up

Duct tape it is then, you can always peel that back off before you sell it

Toyo (for example, easy website to navigate hence my use of them here for an example!) don't recommend anything over 255 on an 8.5" rim. I can't find the wheel size for OEM F355 rears, but if they're 10" then they'd be more than happy with 295 on the back. Did you try running the wheels with those tyres without the spacers? How much power are you putting down now? If you really need more grip from your tyres, you'll either need to consider larger wheels or moving to a better tyre: What tyres are you using now?

Passed new MOTs in the last week? Fair enough, good for them.

Time to open the dash and snip the LED I reckon

VX220s don't and never had HIDs though, not a fair comparison.

All RS Meganes now come with 265bhp as per the Trophy Still think it's not a bargain?

Quick tap of the pipe with a screwdriver will give the game away

Why would the Racelogic stuff not pass MOT? Has it been wired in dangerously?

Why do it all on the same day? Drive up, test, do deal, leave £500 deposit, come back week later and pay the rest. That's what mst people do, surely? Gives you time to sort insurance and stuff out.

Never done it myself as I've always bought from main dealers, but I would only ever do it via walking into a bank and doing the transfer there and then, too much to go wrong/get ripped off otherwise. If that meant taking a day off work, it would be worth it.

And how much is it going to be? £100K? £150K?

£55, the same it always does. They're not allowed to charge any more than that, clicky me for the proper list. D1 spec? Do you mean the accelerator pedal sensitivity adjuster thing? That'll be fine, or you could just unplug it for the hour if you're that worried.

Brendon Barber is a c*nt of the highest order, up there with Dave Prentis and Uber-C*nt Bob Crow. To quote Ben Affleck in J&SBSB, "F*ck them. F*ck them in their stupid asses!".

I'd go less than that, I wouldn't want to pay more than £5K considering it's a Cat C. The only thing I will say is that if you had loads of photos and receipts of the damage/work done and it was fairly easy to see that it should've been a D rather than C in terms of damage caused then I may go a bit higher, but not by much.

They'll be fine, it's referring to a cat as a generic piece of equipment rather than a specific OEM one.

It'll fail. Good spot there, although obviously not so good for the JDM owners! Another key point is that the driver's seat must move forward or backward, so no more fixed seats. Maybe not a huge issue for the likes of us, but what are Atom owners supposed to do? Or X-Bow owners?

Cheaper than EleMiral? Okay, I'm seriously impressed, they'll definitely be getting a call in a couple of weeks from me

I can't stand bodykits on a car. However, that looks so wonderfully angry that if I think bad thoughts about it I suspect it may come and kill me in my sleep. Gorgeous.

Did your missus not mind that you'd nicked her dildo to put in your car?

I've a pair of bookshelf speakers of a similar size (Kef iQ60s) for the rears on my setup, and I've attached them to their stands very well so that the speakers won't come off the stands, but that still means that the stands can be knocked over and take cables etc with them. Nothing I can do about that, but as they are rear speakers they're right at the back of the room and hard to get to in the first place. Aside from nailing everything down, you can only do so much sadly.

Exactly the same company, if you can't or don't want to swap sides of the same office then Elephant will price match the Admiral quote for you. They're a bit limited as to what mods they will allow before premiums start getting silly, and their claims procedure is fair to middling, but they're so cheap right now I can put up with a certain amount of crap! I'm with Admiral, the other half was with Elephant but has now switched to Admiral too.

You do understand how a lottery works, right? There is an equal chance of all numbers being drawn, so it really doesn't make much difference if you have two almost identical tickets. If anything you've got a better chance of winning decent money as whatever you do win has a good chance of being doubled up now. If it does bother you that much then I'd probably not use their Lucky Dip next time, and just make your own numbers up.

SMD, that is f***ing awesome, great job fella Now where can I find a missus that would let me get away with one of those in the living room...!
