Having had zed off road for a while i have recently got hold of a manual Gearbox Conversion kit and the tools to do the job! i think ive been away for too long and need to start posting again :sorcerer: Not that i or many others have been missed but its time to start haunting the forums again :2guns: So here goes with a post to say..................... im back. I will start another post soon with the pictures updated as i carry out the job of making the car a "manwell" If any body wants a autobox for parts or to repair i will pretty much give it away although postage would help if you are not picking it up. I will update as i go :taz: good…

Well the poor old metro gti bit the dust recently (headgasket failure) so i had been busy popping a low mileage replacement engine in rather than faffing around with changing headgaskets and cambelts. It'll be back on the road for next week. In the meantime i bumped into an old friend and was telling him how i was struggling a bit, i'm 6'5" and the metro was never bought as a long distance car and i'm putting 400+ miles a week on it. He said he'd got his old rover tomcat coupe (1.6) sitting on his driveway doing nothing if i wanted it for £100? Needless to say it needs a little work (cambelt/waterpump/exhaust gasket/interior needs a good clean) but apart f…

The other day I was lucky enough to win an auction on ebay - boost gauge, vacuum gauge, oil pressure gauge, oil temp gauge, a pillar triple pod trim, din triple hole trim, sandwich plate, all senders and sensors, vacuum piping... for £10 + p+p :santa: woop woop, merry christmas, or so I thought. Anyways, I get a message today, reading: "This item aswell as others were being stored in a shared garage. Upon reciving payment i went to collect the item to post aswell as others, however they seem to have been taken or moved without my approval. As a result i have issued a refund. I am very sorry for this inconvenience. Should they t…

aint seen or heard from him for ages, anyone had any contact from him, got a text last chrimbo but got nothing back from him was a great guy aswell

does anybody have one of these, and are they any good. my main question is do they hold signal well, i have a DAB radio at home and if you move it from one place to another in the house it picks up certain stations and looses others depending on where it is. is this going to be the same in the car, and do they work of the standard arial or do you need a new one putting into the car somewhere. cheers and happy new year

http://transmission.blogs.topgear.com/2009/12/20/series-14-where-were-at/ Andy Wilman has hinted that TG has run it's course and the spark has gone from the series. Now I am the biggest TG fan around and at the moment it is the ONLY TV programme I watch on a regular basis (Albeit the usual short run) However I do agree with some of his comments. The presenters do seem to have turned into a cartoon character of themselves and the same jokes are being touted each week. This may be car nut sacrilege but i think it's time to call it a day on the current format of TG. I don't want it to turn into something that was once good but is now just awful. (It s…
