gluck m8, and get that prenup signed :)

yay I guess theres going to be no need for me and PaulC to have another mothers meeting :) I'll put away the special crockery m8, and put the fairy cakes on ice

I just want to spectate, i really hope thats possible or im gonna be upset :(

you've been more than patient with them, i know this isnt the point of your post, but get your cash back,

how are you gonna combat the idle duffer :) would be interesting to know :)

Is it under warranty? If they are not actively trying to fix the problem then you should chuck the car back at them. Trading standards will accept "an engineer is on the way" as a company "actively trying to fix" , you could threaten him with taking it to watchdog, ford hate watchdog. My girlfriend has a ford KA and it is stable all the time even at 90mph, her stepdad works for ford so ill ask him if he knows anything. personally I wouldnt muck around with it and id put stock wheels back on and just give it back, contact trading standards immediately as well.

if its in my interest i call back, I hate buying stuff over phone/web though, i prefer to pick it up from a shop, its a shame that i like the web prices though :(

Of course, i hope its still themed around rocky horror :D

I think you will find that your cross dressing event is the following weekend ;)

If you drive it like you stole it then you will have big bills ;) you have to treat these cars with respect and care, if you treat them right then they will treat your wallet right, its mainly about preemptive maintenance.

when you getting them m8? and why havnt you been on msn :( I hate lag, for me it would be smithy hybrids all the way, with decat and 16psi upgrade,

I quite like supras, don't think id buy one though, bit poncy ;) nice motors though, if they are done right they catch my eye, Im not keen on them looking stock though really.

how about

yuh I guess a turban would go with those

yeah jeff was the guy in the shorts, no turban in site

huh? Duffer, you been at the whiskey again m8?

real men use a form of grammar that is at least semi readable ;)

Jeff, I had a similar sized dent removed, reprayed and blended in half way down the door, i also had some manky paint repaired around the window, I had rust removed from one t-bar, and rust taken out from below the rear windscreen wiper and blended in. on the opposite side I had a score mark removed that went into the rear wheel arch, I also had rust removed from both wheel arches. That cost me £280 They are in the not in the midlands though, they won't take on anythign to major as they are pretty much jammed solid with insurance work, They have a lovely ferrari dino in there at the moment along with an expensive looking jag I wasn't happy with the T-bar repair however as that paint moved when I washed it two weeks later its abuot the size of a finger print. Of the people who have seen my car none have noticed the accident repair.

:rofl: no that was some zed loving ;)

not as much as it hates you :dance:

did they replace the slam bar? Also I had an identicle dent pulled and repaired for about £150 Stu has seen what an excellent job they did :)

james, just let it die m8, you are destined to have stock wheels now, accept it and move on ;)

It sounds as though it may have been coolant related, I believe that the needle sits at half way or low because the air passing by it is not as warm as coolant, when a surge of collant goes past the temp sensor sees this as a rapid increase in temperature. have you noticed anything leaking? might be wise to get it to a garage for a checkover if you arnt sure,

It may be irrelevent but temp gauges can display that type of action when you are very low on coolant.

you can never have to much shine :) top and bottom left appear to need some of the blang treatment though :) I love the blue though, goes well with the lighter coloured cars. what have you got left to do? and what are you going to do when you are finished? sell her? start on mine? ;)
