Leather or Tweed?

a mate of mine has two cars in chester auctions and the receivers have been called in as they are a subsidiary of the Drive Direct Motor connected to rover, so not looking to good for punters there he alone stands to lose over 8 grand, a big house of cards is about to collapse i reckon

Been checking some of my pics this afternoon, and there certainley are some different colour diferences between cameras.......... Taken by myself, just after I got it, with a Fuji 36mm SLR camera, Also taken by myself, but with my Fuji A202 DigiCam, Again taken by me, but this time with my new Motorola RAZR V3 camera phone, This time taken at Santa Pod, sorry can't remember who took this one :slap: , And finally, taken last weekend by Peach, Anyway, just thought I'd share that observation :D

After having crashed my car, the insurance company have finally agreed that it is a write off. So that's that............cheerio, thanks for all the help in the past year. I'm off to settle into old age with a Mercedes and a bottle of tear stained brandy! Cheers Chris

Stage 1 of my cars metamophsis gona happen in just over a week. All the easy to fit stuff, guages, pods, FMIC etc etc is going on. S2 Then its engine out, Polished plenum, out with the hicas, on with the (secret, youl all have to wait :tongue: ). Off with the Auto and manwel in there. And anything else that needs to be done with teh engine out. S3 Bodykit and respray plus leather interior and fully integrated PC with diagnostics. Wifes happy cos Im gona get shot of a large pile in the spare room. Wait till she sees what else i have planned lol

was at work today in my trannie van pottering around sunderland when i noticed another new speed camera in pallion just off kayl road. then i got thinking i wish there was a section on this site where people could post new camera sites for everyone to see. the fact that we drive such powerfull cars its only a matter of time before we get points on our licencse. I just thought if we had something like this on the site we would have a better chance of avoiding the dreaded points and fine. Just a thought i was having so if u think that this is a lame idea then in advance sorry but i thoght it would be worth mentioning

New o2 sensors, new cats, exhaust leaks fixed, and replaced spark plugs she feels like a new car now, and really makes putting off selling her a lot easier, all I have to do is tighten up the front belts and she will sold perfect, still no idea why the idle is about 150rpm over base, I guess its time to start getting the boost leak detector out, its well worth getting your car on a conzult, I can honestly say in 3 years of ownership she has never driven so well since the o2's were replaced, also mpg has got a lot better, doing about 50miles more per a tank :eek:

Got me new shocks and springs fitted today and boy does it make a difference!! found out 1 was leaking at front, but now its like its running on rails !! sweet!!!!! :dance: only another 100 jobs to go LOL :rofl: :rofl:

300 bhp zed + young driver + empty car park = death of a clutch unit !!!! Check out the links. Flywheel actually escaped quite well only requiring small amount of work. Jeff TT

Just wanted to say a huge THANKS to Luke at the Z Centre, driving home 2nite my top hose decided to split , i stopped topped her up and went to Halfrauds as i only needed a short length of 35mm bore pipe (got greddy inline temp unit fitted) no joy , twat tried to sell me some fuel pipe :xxx: . I pass lukes road so i went knocking , he,d got no new ones in stock so he went in his garage and got the one of his own car !! how much i said , merry chrismas he said FOC . Hows that for service :dance: THANKS LUKE , A TOP BLOKE :bow: :bow: :duffer:

They've chosen another Pope and he's a conservative hard liner. Should guarantee more pain and death in the third world and the further demise of the Catholic faith (which I'm not bothered about). :headvswal

Heres a couple of pictures from the bodyshop, car should be back with me next week, cant wait :hyper: went to get a replacement pin stripe that goes along the sills and Nissan want £60 !!!!! :xxx: :xxx: what a rip off, how much profit do they want to make??? will be going to Partco tomorrow me thinks.

Did anyone watch it last night, where that bloke hit the wall in his brand new £500k maserati? Ouch! Lucky he got away with the slight damage. Anyway, the reason for this thread: did anyone watch it last week where they had an update on the modifications they've carried out on their lotus esprit? They must think all the people that watch it are stupid and don’t know anything about cars, etc. Now I’m no mechanic but Tiff Niddel (is that his name?) was talking major bullshit. Two points: 1) He said they installed a charge cooler while the pictures showed a silver can with small clear hoses flowing a blue liquid. The clip was too short to get a good look bu…

. . . . . . . . . . :dance: mostly moving house Chunk your plan works a treat mate (writing Heavy on the light boxes) :) only downside is my sale is not complete yet :xxx: I signed the contact last Friday, but they havn't been exchanged yet! boxes every where i thought PaulG had come round to help, but it was just the white van I'd hired outside LOL

OK.. very simple really. I did some private work for a person and they won't pay me for the work. Truth being, not declared. I know bad bad boy but I wan't my dosh anyways, Anyone got any ideas how to get it without resorting to violence. Not that I'm agaist violence but I thought someone out there may have a more subtle way. It isn't a lot of cash, only £800 or so, but I did the work. Ideas welcome .. Cheers Chris P

Not sure how many of you guys know, but I recently bought Jaz's 300zx. While I was arranging transportation the vehicle was clamped and then removed for having no tax! OK so it was gonna cost me another £400 to get the car released, bit of a kick in the nuts but still worth it to get the car. Sent Jaz the extra cash so he could go to the pound today and get the car released to the transport company bringing it back up north. Jaz turns up today, pays money, goes to find car to put a few bits and bobs in it for me................. The fookers have CRUSHED IT!!!!!!!! :shock: :headvswal They only had the car for 9 days Can they do this??????? …

Left at the unfeasibly early time of 5:30 this morning to travel down to Southampton docks to pick up the V8. It seems she's survived the voyage from Japan in one piece despite only being tied to a pallet and covered with plastic sheeting and a cardboard box! :eek: Arrived back this afternoon and stored her in the garage. Very tired but very pleased! :D Will post some more photos in my Journal later on. Leigh.
