Is there any way to get a DANGEROUS driver off the road without waiting for them to kill someone? I ask because there is this woman at work who drives a clapped out Golf. Every panel has a dent and a scrape, and the bumpers are hanging off. This is beacuse she keeps crashing, she has hit my Z in the car-park twice, and has also hit just about everyone else at work. This morning she drove straight through the automatic barrier at the front of the building and destroyed it. She blamed the barrier for jamming on the way up, but I checked the CCTV and she did not even slow down for the 'card swipe'! In fact, just after she had missed hitting a child at the entrance, she plo…

Nice black Z...with high F40 style rear wing on A5 today...about 10:20...going towards Hockliffe. Looked very smart...I've only recently got back from KL and Vietnam so it was the first one I've seen in a while. You forget just how bloody striking they are...top motor, whoever's it was. When I say it's the first one I've seen in a while that's not strictly true.... Well...apart from going to see mine in the garage.....nine weeks so far, engine out twice....yesterday taken down at S E Nissan....surprise, surprise the turbo's are fucked. So it's engine out again...and I still ahven't got any decent turbo's....that is in spite of them going back to the 'specialist'…

Anyone had their car converted to one/is it possible ?

White, wide arches, big wheels, high level wing, Strosek rear bumper, twin scoops front panel. Anyone here? We passed on the Harrogate to Wetherby road at Sainsbury's but I was in my 206 so didn't bother flashing.

Anyone seen Minority Report yet? Any good? Looks it, Spielberg usually manages to deliver the goods. Bought the new Oasis album Heathen Chemistry last weekend and was well impressed with it compared to Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. Finsbury Park gigs were quite a riot from what I've heard...literally and some younger fans said that most Oasis fans are just drunken yobs and complete wankers! That would be me then???

I was chaanging the gearbox oil on the wifes Rover 416SLi yesterday and when I came to check what was the required spec of oil, the haynes manual said, 10w 30 or 10w 40 engine oil. So I checked to see what type of engine oil it said to use, in the hope that they have made a typo but it said the same plus a bit more info, so there wasn't a duplication error. So after calling a friend asking them if they had ever heard of putting engine oil in to a gearbox, they said "No"....so I called Rover and low and behold, they said, "Yes, you can use either said engine oil or 75-80 gearbox oil". Whatever next. I thought engine oil could not cope with the thrash from a …

Had my little box of trix in the car this morn. to hopefully get a decent 0-60 time. And I got one, well, if you call 0 - 60mph in 13.32 sec!! and took 1717ft!!. Sometimes that little thing called traffic gets in the way (a bit too much down here in 318i city).

Just got a Zed last week. rubber is Fulda Extremos - 235s front and 255 back. Any idea on the pressures needed?

Has anyone on here had a chicken shit conversion (L.P.G) done on their 300? And if so what is the power loss etc? I dont fancy the loss of power, but it would be good to switch on the motorwayto run on 35p a litre fart power, then go back to petrol when needed.Any BHP figures anyone knows would certainly be interesting.
