  1. Will be interesting to see how much classic Ford prices are affected when this comes in. The articles saying old Fords will be among the affected models, aswell as older VWs and Nissans.
  2. Yep, if anything the more eerie the better
  3. A photo of your car in front of an abandoned building, but it has to be in the countryside, or a rural area. Ideally on its own, rather than attached to another building.
  4. If a pigeon lands on my car it won't live long enough for me to take a photo of it.
  5. Changed the gearbox oil with some Fuchs Titan Gearsyn. Feels better now, and was a straightforward job to do
  6. I keep getting this one when I log in.
  7. I've been considering a wing like this for mine. I'm just not sure it would like right though with the proportions though. I'd love to do it to piss off the "meughhh 140s aren't proper Celicas why would you do that"? brigade. I'll stick with the TRD for the time being.
  8. If I may make a suggestion? In response to recent weather, how about simply a photo of your car in the rain?
  9. Ahh damn! Well I've gotten away with it so far so I'm not too worried
  10. What's worst on mine is the blood splatter, lol.
  11. Tried to stick one end of the fuel tank heat shield back on after it sheared last night. Will see how well it's stuck tomorrow.
  12. Is it just Gen 7s that suffer badly from this or is it all Gens? In the warmer weather I often end up with alot of bug splatter on the front of my car after going down the b-roads and rural areas. Alot worse than I see it on my dad's Audi A4.
  13. My third membership card and letter. Felt strange not feeling a pen in the envelope, lol.
  14. Been using Sainsbury's fuel last couple of fill ups. Seem to get more for the money, and the car runs just as good as Shell regular, so I'm not complaining.
  15. From my experience: Shell regular and Sainsburys regular: mine likes these the best. Not much difference between them, although Shell may just take the lead. I seem to get a tiny "kick" when putting my foot down with Shell. BP Ultimate, Tesco 99, and Sainsburys super unleaded: mine runs great on all of these. No "kick" though, and they don't last as long as the regular fuels. Shell V-Power and BP regular: mine gets down V-Power like there's no tomorrow, plus I don't get the kick like the Regular Shell fuel. I do put the odd tank in for the cleaning additives though. When I put BP normal fuel in, my idle went down all of a sudden for a few seconds, to the point where the car sounded like it was going to cut out. Put Shell back in after and it ran like a dream again. I can't comment on them myself, but some have said avoid Asda and Morrisons fuel. Many have said Asda fuel makes their cars run like crap (Celicas and non-Celicas).
  16. May be different being a 140, but mine runs better on Shell regular than V-Power.
  17. Or their pronunciation of "racecar" as "Honda Civic".
  18. Pretty sure somebody from Toyota confirmed it's pronounced "ce-leek-a". That's how I've always said it.
  19. There's not really much point having them straightened. They're very soft alloys, and buckle quite easily. You'd likely be paying to have them fixed, only for them to bend again, especially with how bad the roads are nowadays. Both of my rear wheels were flatspotted and wouldn't hold air for very long, so I bought some different, stronger alloys instead.
