  1. dont you just love it when you get stuck in country lane with someone in a hatch ot salon car, or worse a chealsea tractor that wont move over and get there car dirty, and stare at you to move as if your inconviencing thier day. do they not know you cant mount the curb? or go on the verge? that if i got up there id never get back down lol. grrr
  2. prepare to laugh at me. just purcahsed a kia picanto or hyundia getz to you and i its 4 years old done just over 50k insuarnce group two up to 60 to the gal, cant falut it price £1100 got the cambelt done etc new rubber, 400 bucks. tax £30 so one veryu very cheap newis run about, ok not a motorwy lover but round town yeh its alright slow, brakes def work tho, found that out when i climbed back off the dashboard. feels like a europeon hatch. as for vitaras, i had one. i treated it like a slut. through small rivers hit tree stumps did doughnuts in gravel carparks abused it in everyway possible crashed it througha fence one morning. it came back for more every damn time. we hiota tree stump one night the exhaust manifold went bright red turned it off for abit then starte dit back up once cool ran fine. sucked water in the engine it bogged for half a mile then woke up again. so yeh it was fun, but i did feel like a hairdresser in it it was awful on feul considering what it was. expensive to insure and really unless you flipped the seats there was no boot space. my friends focus was much more spacious for carrying stuff
  3. if you were looking for something cheaper to run the bora probally wasnt the right car anyways. was teh v5 you were looking at wasnt it? my mate has aseat with the same engine terrible feul economy and about as much power as a flowerly fart. :D
  4. right chaps toghtened up the clips a few of them where about a full turn or more of slack to be tighten up. think they possibly need replacing if im honest with myself. no drips from teh pain in the ass one. fired teh car up and it deffinatly smelt alot less, but was still there so i think its new fpr time. my sense of smell is rubbish unfortunatly, but it was def teh only wet thing i found and the wet smelt like feul

  13. i wasnt having a pop at people who what to better themselves everyone has the right to that. however from my expeniences with the people i know who have gone to uni teh majority are there because they really dont know what else to do. its an easy option in there minds. i was in the same boat, but rather than do a corse get in loads of debt to get a second rate degree or worse that gets me no where. I opted to get a job, many people including my college tutour looked down on me fior this because i wasnt going the accepted correct route. everyone taht goes to college seems to go on and do a degree these days, and if they dont get the results they planned they change the corse becuase there desperate to go to uni, as its presented as the only option. To my mind though university should be about people improving their lives and yes tahts going to be expensive, but life is. Thats why we work hard to earn things. the fact taht someone without a job can stand there shouting about how much more there fees will be when theyre not goning to be using the opertunity theve been given is stupid and frankly quite childish. working on the basis taht fees are currently 3k per term a four year corse is gonna put you in 48,000 debt through tution fees. with the planned rise of upto 3 times this your looking at close to 150,000. this will only be the top unis requesting this fee though. the whiole system needs reforming. the hike is crazy but so is the actions of SOME(as a few have pointed out) students. both sides need to get there act together, and reform the situation. i personally would like to see students doing more of a apprenticship style corse witha workplacement and lectures. 3 hours work a week does not contistue as full time. and does not make you exempt from working a full job. this would make the students better off finaically ensure the right people were getting the places, and that people are studying for jobs that exist, not token degrees for degrees sake. dont even get me started on the great unwashed that live off benifits and fiddling. and i actually believe that the health care system as it stands is also a joke the people taht work those jobs work so hard too hard, get paid too little and the system is too open to exploitation. if we all had to pay a nomial charge for heath insurnce dirsectly and without it you get nothing it would solve alot of problems. this country is becoming a joke
  14. that few christ, there must be some hotspots then cos there are around 10 in this area
  15. just my 2 pence worth based on what i see people upto that are of that age. my age. and yes i agree we dont speak up for our rights nearly enough, but i this i dont think is nearly as import as people are making out. its not just the privagaed atm that can go anyone can, if your not choosey where you go or what you do. i realsie not all students are a waste of space. but there are alot that are
  16. here in bournemouth theyre throwing there toys out the pram. over the plans to increase tuition fees. good stand up for what you believe in, here in england we let the goverment bully us about far too much. they argue that there not getting much time in the classroom for there money as it is, and increasing tution fees will make it impossible for poor families to go. now heres some counter points. firstly the majority are not hardworking and not interested in working they are there because they couldnt decide what else to do and didnt want to get a job. so they went to uni got away from mum and dad and took up media. they then plan to not earn x amount for x amount of years to avoid paying back what they owe. great, so basically they get to spend a few hours a week sat down not turn theyre work in on time because theyre too busy socialising and watching crap tv, and then were left to pay the tab off. at which point they moan. grow up seriously. so now theres police working overtime costing money them rioting and trashing stuff costing us money and the money they will spend on beer this afternoon once there bored is also the taxpayers, and you will never get it back. both sides need to take a long hard look. students need to grow up and be a little more career focused, youve had 18 years of free education time to start paying, or investing in your future more accuratly. the goverment needs to legistate better about who gets what and what they back, if they had jobs which is totally feasable for most to work full or longer weeks parttime, and stopped burning cash in the pub and spent a bit more free time studying not leaving it to the last minute. they would be in far less of a finanicial state. if a mother or two can raise her kids study at night and work full time im damn sure an 18 year old lad can force himself to do a bit more than watch jermery kyle all day. if you want to be a professional, doctor, dentist whatever and you have the grades then its your right to go but it should be manditory that the right people are getting these oppertunities not people who are sort of interested because they cant think of anything else. and that they are working hard, more learning and earning less pissing it up the wall. i watch my friends that have recently graduated or are graduating and i wanna slap em. there is no point training for a job that doesnt exist, and equally there is no point spending all taht cash and time to do nothing with it. common sense has gone out the window! and are we gonna protest because we disagree, no where too busy working to fund there day off!
  17. go out buy yourself a nice tidy s14 non turbo. what do you really want the car for is the question youve gotta ask
  18. i did had a period of vitual slicks on the rear, ended up backwars into a curb, ouch. it spooled up in second only slightly and it was gone quicker than grease lightening. bloody busses
  19. cant wait to see half of morrisons flying out the exhaust when you fire up haha. film that.
  20. dont bother with the pinstripe. but do bother to put the black sticker on the spoiler the round up the rear light cluster lifts the whole rear
  21. depends on the hangover grade il put them into two grades for simplicity. grade 1 hangover: had one or three more pints that you planned and stumbled home from the pub where in bed by midnight. wake up feeling very cloudy and tired not sick and no shivers. grade 2 hangover:stayed out past 4am, walked home because you spent your last pennies on a kebab. dont remebr the walk home much and it took a very long time from what you do remember, walking to the bathroom makes you bounce off the walls and you have the sweats. obviously there are stage 3. cronic vomitting, sorry no known cure learn to handle your drink better. stage 4 death tough your not gonna know anything about it anyways. to cure a stage 1, bacon and egg sarnie with a pint of orange juice. take a nice shower the warmer the better, if the head still feels bad start drinking cool water. if you can go for a swim, go. purchase lucosade sport orange the one that comes in the sport bottle. get some more warm food in. stage 2 hangover, think simular but more of it. hit the shower straight away with a pint glass and some orange, sit on the floor and ajdust the temp to suit your uneven body temp, once the orange has gone try standing up, if not let the pint glass fill naturally and drink it try again until it feels pretty ok. time for food, eat anything and evrything that looks appealing and warm and filling, start drinking coke a cola, chips are fantastic. oput a crap movie of and snooze and eat like youve ben starved for 6 months. this does genuinly work. orange juice is full of vitam c this will sort you out, liquids will rehyrdate you and put your brain back in your skull, your body craves different food for a reason youve depleated the stores of certain things and your body knows what it needs just listen to it. and showering gets the smell and grease and yack off yoyur skin bringing instant refreshment. its by no means fool proof but ive survied many a lads week this way. being fitting fit from a stage two and ready to party again by lunch :D
  22. pop down machine mart and buy yourself some long handled pliers the like foot long size very very usefull for working round that area
  23. just jet wash it, if it doesnt come back spotless no worries. you dont need it clean, they look gay clean
