Mines running a Fiesta battery 046, just gives it a bit more grunt on startup.

Dont worry, I have a brand new Insignia diesel and its only managing 35 mpg, not the 54 that the dealer said I should be getting. Its been back seven times so far and had new tyres, brakes and brake discs after 4800 miles and is still no better. I think its just because its a Vauxhall ???

Hi Hollowpoint I'm in Bentley myself, could you point me in the right direction so I might get an idea on costs, cheers.

Hi folks, I have three cars needing paint jobs and my usual spray guy has retired so I have a problem. Does anyone know a good painter at reasonable money in the South Yorkshire area???????? Must be able to do specialist work though, ta.

My kids diner hour has been cut to 45 mins because they are too hyper when they get back to class, which means 350 kids queue for food at 12pm and the last one served has around 3 mins to eat then no play time just back to class. We used to send packed lunch but then we had a memo that all packed lunches were to back checked so that no child had better than the next and that no sugary, or fatty foods were allowed. We are now at a new school which she loves that are a lot more sensible.

Looks good there young man, if you're not too busy I need 200m2 laying when you have a spare weekend, but a damn good job for a desk jockey.

Coooooooooool. Think I need to build a spare room now.

I,m in Doncaster, but they,ll probably nick Mr Beans before mine.

Ive just been for my speed awareness this morning and as we came to discusing where you should be doing 30mph theres a bright blue 300ZX parked up on the video they show you. It seems to be somewhere in Birmingham.:ohmy:

Us at the tax office have been told that no one is to get any monies for the next twelve weeks, as we have all been put on to postal duties, because there is a back log of paper work for six months. This means that even if you are owed money it will be held up for the longest time possible so that the present people in power will gain over ten million in intrest in this period. Also any claim under five thousand is being let slip through to speed up the process, and only one claim in one thousand is being investigated at the moment so I'd give the ball a kick anyhow, its not my money.

What colour are we going then?????????????:thumbup1:

12.00pm parked at Bentley garage doncaster, clean smooth tailed in silver, also the bronze one thats always parked up there.:cool2:

Struggling with the mig, very tight between the engine, radiator and chassis ends. Might have to give it another bash though.

Hi folks, just wondered if anyone new where I could hire (HSS aint got none)or beg a spot welder somewhere in south yorkshire for a day. just need to spot on a crash panel on the wifes car, cheers.

Bentley garage Bronze Zed, white standard wheels and black spoiler J***RTA. Toll Bar school Silver with a bare ar*e end. St Georges bridge going into Donny Red Zed with large rear spoiler. All seen yesterday between 3.00 and 4.30. Getting popular these days??????

7 pint of Guiness is just the right amount, lookin good.

King Edwards Grammar school up the road ?

The son in law works at a meat factory, so I'll bring ya some goodies mate.

Count me in for £20 this is the best story ive read in years and i want to see the end.

Just sold a CLK 230 Kompressor, 63k miles for £3k. Cruised well but wobbled a lot at speed. Mates got a 200 Kompressor auto and its slower than my deisel Insignia, and corners worse. Did use to get 32mpg though.

The SLK I just bought needs a bonnet and two air bags, £2000 for car, then about £850 to repair. Perfect for a quiet life from the wife,hoping its worth £4k or more. Ive had a 850 and there great, but i'd say around £1800 for a good repair, only buy it if its a boyhood dream. The mk1 MR2's I think are a bit marmite, and cheap at half the price, okay for a track toy and leave it as it is.

Do you have a number, or email I can have to get in touch? Cheers Simon.

Air bags and a couple of panels, should have it stripped in a week or so then know more.

Been spending again but on something for the wife this time. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180606996532&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT Should keep her happy for a week or two.:thumbup1:
