Have a look before buying Carbon, I've got a KTec carbon bonnet on my 5, its just GRP with a very thin layer of carbon over the top so its not as light as it could be. Although it is lighter than the standard bonnet. And whats the point in painting over carbon, you just going to add weight...

There are no points for number plates only a fine, i got fined 40 quid for mine, they actually removed them from the car and confiscated them at the side of the road as they said they were evidence.

Yes and Yes :)

Very Interesting, ive bookmarked it in case i need to refer back to it !

There was a discussion on our boards about recommended tuners in Scotland, if its any use, have a read...

Andy - I can point you in the direction of a good and reasonably priced web designer if you need help. :)

I agree with that as well its the people that dont drive that have no respect and take the its only a car attitude. those who have worked hard to get the car they want understand and are careful. Changing the Cds and the radio bugs the hell out of me too.

Did she apologise though, thats the important bit, we all do things then afterwards think sh1t i should have been a bit more careful. My mate opened my door into a post once, incide i was screwing but what can you do the damage is already done by then.

My sons Dad is a courier and he drives better than a lot of people i know, i think you are always going to get idiots out on the road no matter what vehicle they are in, just the bigger vehicles tend to stand out a bit more. I swerved to avoid a car that turned right in front of me coming from...

I hit a fox once in my 19 16v, just ran out from a hedge in front of me i swerved in the opposite direction it was running to avoid it but it decided to turn round and run back so i couldnt avoid hitting it, would have been better to have kept going in a straight line and just slowed down as...

Main dealers always charge loads, def worth shopping around, your book doesnt need to be stamped by a renault main dealer if you went to a specialist im sure that would be just as good. Nissan tried to charge my mum 300 quid to fit 2 cv boots on her almera, we went and got the parts for 40...

Are you insured fully comp or tpft ? If you are tpft just ring up his insurance company and ask for a claim form and claim direct off them. Youll need to get two estimates done. It will need to declare it and your premium may go up whilst it is being sorted out but it will get adjusted back...

Damn right when i am older i am still going to be driving sports cars, why not, you are only as old as you feel they say and i am 30 going on 18 at the moment and i cant see that changing for a while.

Oh and the 700 quid resprays i would strongly advise against as they dont include taking any rust patches out or any seals they literally just mask up everything and blow over the whole car. You would be looking to spend 1500 plus for a decent respray.

Prepping is the hardest part of any respray the actual painting part is easy. Depending on what you are painting with though you have to bear in mind that 2pack is very toxic and needs proper ventilation, cellulose isnt so bad and you can get away with it in a garage but it fades quicker and...
