My mate does smart repairs but as described above, he doesn't advertise or do it at peoples homes he gets called by the car dealerships. Even brand new cars come off the lorry with a few dents. He has to be good otherwise they won't call him again... situation described above is a good shout

So when I was pouring my oil into the rear engine compartment where did it go ? Lol -

I hate stories like this. A few years back my mates dad looked out of his window to see 2 lads slicing the roof on his MX5, he opened the door and shouted at them and they told him to go back inside they only wanted his cigs ! £300 roof slashed for £3 pack of cigs Anyone who damages someone else's property intentionally should go to prison no questions asked. Or cut there hands off.. either is fine

I had a toad cat on my old rover coupe. No fancy features but met thatcham standards and cost half what a Clifford does

I was looking at that one the other day gimba, is it as nav size so needs to be plugged in and out every time your go for a drive ?

The Volvo was on my list too, like the early BMW's the engine had a major flaw. I drove a few and they were nice to driver if a bit dull. I struggled to find one which wasn't covered in dents though... don't think Volvo drivers can park. I did find one nice one but it smelt like a mixture of old peoples home and dog kennel :-)

I've got an e46 320d touring and in love it, buy a 54 or 05 and you should avoid the swirl flaps issues cravo mentions or pay £159 to have them removed I hammer mine and get 46mpg, the saloon is meant to be a few mpg better too. Mines as se but I'll be after the m sport next time Its my boring car until my baby (due in 4 weeks) is out of a pushchairs then its gen 7 time again !

Annoying things people say about ur car...
ScottChester replied to myimportedbeast's topic in General Celica Discussion
That's your car... what happened to that lovely celica you had ? :-( -
If I'm following correctly your not really asking is it cheap, more has it been done. And if your seeing this as an engineering challenge and an opportunity to create a one off then all credit too ya, I think its a great idea and would like to see the result The chargers from the cooper s do seem to be making it into a few different cars recently

The mot rules are v old. A newish car with new brakes will probably still out perform a h reg astra I wouldn't worry Also they say 200 and that probably means 50 with 150 to cover themselves off

Gutted for ya mate. A buddy of mine had an escort gti years ago and his missus ex keyed every panel. He was gutted Though I did see the guy in a night club a few weeks later and "clearly explained the error of his ways" Shouldn't cost too much to fix though bud

Respray - looking for colour suggestions
ScottChester replied to Owain's topic in General Celica Discussion
How about BMW estoril blue. Its the colour that was only used on m series cars in the 90s. Looks ace, very shiny and never seen on a Celica -
Don't the clocks finish at 110 because the car is Japanese and limited to 112 ? Looks ace by the way

As said should be fine A full Toyota service history would of course attract a premium when selling but in my experience the cost of doing it outweighs what you recover when you sell and a full history is a full history in my opinion.

.... because they don't have fog lights when they leave the factory in many cases That's why alot of imports have ugly rear fogs hanging off brackets

"An" or "the only" lol

On paper they are 190 but all the guys who've had them dyno'd have never made the magic number

A mate has it done on her 306 gti-6 a few years back and no tabs the paint was fine A few years later though rust became an issue, by folding back you create a small space where crap and water collect
