I once saw a band call the Redbeards from Texas (they weren't), who were a kind of ZZ Top variant, and they did a song called "Meet Me Outside the Pawnbrokers and Kiss Me Under the Balls" and there was another called "My baby's got a puncture and she's going down on me!".

I normally get notified automatically by Paypal when there is a subscription but this time nothing. I just logged in and double checked but can't see anything that appears to be from you. Could you double check and if poss find the reference number. Thanks

Well there may be a bit of bull there, but it does look like a tidy car.

You still show as registered ? Did you do a bank transfer ? or Paypal ?

For the boot you can use a steering gaiter, available from any friendly motor factor, only cost a couple of quid.

That is curious. They're both from the same person, so he should really have a 9/11 score (whatever percentage that is). They have both been left today, so maybe it'll update tonight. :confused:

Actually, they'd be 16oz, rather than 20oz in the UK !

Doesn't stop me wanting one ! Actually, the only increase in functionality seems to be the ability to adjust slip between 0-25% in 1% increments.

This looks interesting :- http://www.sxoc.co.uk/vbb/showthread.php?t=163574

Had the first stage of my root canal this morning, was surprisingly painless, partly because the nerve in that tooth is pretty much dead (the main reason for the root canal itself) and secondly becuase the tooth only has one root (hurrah!). Stage two, same time, same place, next week ...

No, the pads got fitted with the calipers. Sorry. Smithy does them though.

Dentist for me tomorrow too. First of three bouts or root canal work ! Have a new fit blonde Polish dentist though - which may ease the pain a little though ! :D

And California over the San Andreas fault !

FYI The 4 speed automatic transmission is a lockup type. When in drive mode, gears change 1-2-3 then 3 lockup, giving the effect of 4 gears. When overdrive (4th) is switched in, the change goes 1-2-3-4 then 4 lockup, giving the effect of 5 forward gears. There is a communications link between the automatic transmission control computer and the engine management computer, and this amongst other things, allows the engine computer to retard ignition, thus momentarily reducing engine power, during auto gear changes. Auto gear changes therefore are very smooth. The automatic transmission fitted to the turbo model is stronger than the one installed in the non turbo. Although the gear ratios are almost identical, there are many minor differences between the two transmissions. The Japanese automatic transmission has many more features than the export models. A "power", "normal" and "hold" switch is fitted to modify transmission shift points. The effect of the "power" setting is to delay upshifting, but does not alter the maximum RPM that change occurs. In order to change at the red line or rev limiter speed, one must operate the shifter manually. The hold setting allows holding prevents downshift into second when the shifter is set to "D", and prevents downshift into first when the shifter is in "2". Another curious feature with the Japanese version is that lock up is also available in second gear.

Are you just talking about the overdrive dropping in & out ?

Spot of rain would help keep the grass green though ! ;)

The AA used to do this but stopped the service some months ago.

It's for extra accuracy, and for when you go between tall buildings and lose the signal etc

6 figures - very easy to 'adjust' if you really wanted to though ....

Doubt it, unless the air was able to bypass the AFM. More likely to have a faulty AFM.

They're a single piece disc, just like the originals (only much larger). I can post a pic if it helps.

No, just sell one of the cars instead ! :D

You might get away with stretched 32" jeans, but for a suit that doesn't look awful it'll need to be the right size - 36" it is !

I can't believe he's broken it already (again!)
