  1. We know what you meant. But I really would love a cool pack option.
  2. Quite right. Whilst I do adore my old Betty it's a car for heavens sake. The engine is specifically designed to be spanked. I am happy to oblige.
  3. Great Uncle Kev16v taught me that one. He is a terrible influence.................
  4. All I have pulled recently, in the words of an old Squeeze song, is "Mussels from a shell" efa What a wassock!
  5. Happy 3 Anniversary daytona!

  6. I have seen the FB utube vid of the guy humping his car. It still haunts me..............besides anybody round here brags they could fill an Invidia?
  7. Apart from Celica 1977 saying he didn't think the Invidia sounded as bad as he expected I don't hear many comments about the sound, whether that's because there are none or they are drowned out I neither know nor care. Sadly the only "bit of skirt" to pass comment, whilst she said "I don't usually like sports cars but THAT is really nice!" was in her late 80's and gesticulating with her walking stick. A bit of mature is one thing but.....
  8. Being the wrong end of a big farm I get. Over a mile out in London and it loses the ACE café. Tosh n piffle!
  9. spent 140 on a nice tomtom. Not that impressed as it is a bitch to tether and told me I had reached ACE café before the Wembley gyratory when I was leading a convoy ffs!!!!! My smartphone is more accurate but screen too small and can't HEAR IT OVER THE BLOODY INVIDIA. PARDON?????
  10. BB due next week. I an NOT tempting fate,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
  11. Awww! Well it was lovely to meet you both anyway. Best of luck with the Bimmer.
  12. Sent the weedy jobbie above back................ Big bro Cree jobbie now here. Available for hunting down "Released Krakens" or just lighting your way when you have been told to go to Hell. Regards PS Tried this last night. If you want a xtra hi power narrow beam spot this is it.
  13. I used to drive an s reg 1600 liftback (brothers) It was rusting 30 years ago! know sweet fa about 2 & 3 Wasn't that keen on 4s until I saw sherves. 5s I always did like esp the CS. Well Jel of JonSams new baby. 6 has a face only mummy could love and obviously I like the 7 otherwise I wouldn't have Design Corrected Black Betty. Give me a spare million and I'll drop the 205 turbo engine in the CS. Mmmmm yes please.
  14. The wheels are a bit Morris Ital but not up to speed on gen 5 gt4 options Oh spank me Vicar!! CS not gt4 pml. Given race pedigree something Oz based?
  15. If I wasn't scared by old car bill syndrome it would be one of the few cars I would chop BB in for. As it is for a weekender.............. hmmmm IMHO opinion why boost a gen 7 when you can buy one of these for half the cost????
  16. Dark Fusso is a ptfe sealant. King of Gloss is a dark high gloss wax. I joined an online detailing group ( a mix of pros and complete donkeys like me!) and it seems to be a very popular combination achieving a deep shine and long protection. I have been happy with stuff bought from Steve at Inspired automotive but just fancied a change and have not used a proper sealant before. How I tell if it beats this when I can't see them side by side I just don't know?!?
  17. Away next week. Hope it stays dry. Going to paint in some of the bigger chips then have a bash with this.............
  18. Yup! Usually sunny evenings along one of the coast roads................ If it's daytime I stop off for an ice cream at Labrador bay car park and look out at T' sea. Should do that next week and update photos
  19. Doncha just reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally hate it when that happens?????? Searched on ebay for brightest / most powerful led torch etc. Throws up a 37 led job "officially" rated at 3M CP and it is delivered in the box of a different SIX million candle power jobbie with a beam that supposedly goes six times as far, that was not revealed by the search. FFFFFFFFFFFFFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. On Wednesday I went (ebay) shopping and had buttered scones for tea................ On Thursday my Monty Python related T, detailing cloths and Blind a child at Halloween 6,000,000 candle power torch arrive he he he he he he he heeee!!!
  21. It was just a brief one when Uncle Bryan wasn't looking ;o)
  22. OP fell into several parts, primarily MOT and general law. 1.MOT is at the testers discretion. 2.Bureaucratic bullshit know and construction and use etc refer to Simon re Noise levels Rev limits etc and 3. General law anything louder than stock is illegal. End of! A non standard exhaust no louder than stock would be fine, but boring. HTH
