Okay, this is a long one so you'll have to bare with. At the bottom is the CURRENT problem we are having so you can skip to that, but some background first.
-------------------------------
The new development we live on his a few certain "quirks" but this one is by far the most annoying. The...
So it went back to Toyota again for the oil leak issue and the rear lights. They actually fixed the leak (well, took the offending item off and re-sealing it).
However, apparently the rear lights have "no condensation at all". Although they "weren't saying they dont fog up" and was told if it...
I don't know if they are on the Prius or what, but yes the Pimitives!
It's normally only when provoked, but they are a pretty terrible tyre and do not inspire confidence. I cant wait to have a change! They werent particularly terrible on track in fairness.
You have: On, "Sport" or Off. For the first few laps I had it in Sport, but then I turned it all off. The track was very very slippy today, and my standard tyres are running a bit low! I'm going to switch them for Kumhos next I think.
The car got its first taste of the track today. I headed over to the PistonHeads Sunday Service, just down the road at Silverstone. it was £40 for a 30 minute track session so I couldn't really say no!
All the sessions were delayed an hour due to ice, and the track was still very slippy when...
Another MX5?
Did you manage to pull any of your modified parts off the car before they took it? Seems a shame to lose some nice bits. I guess if they're worth less than £900 and the hassle its not worth it.
S'alright, that.
In all seriousness, who the f**k has the wheels painted black in 2016? The previous owner must've been a right cabbage. Silver looks 10,000,000x better.
Can I be negative? Always hated them, always will. Bloody ugly and not that nice to drive.
However, I quite enjoyed that engine in my 3 Series. And its your car, so if you're happy. ENJOY!
EDIT: I feel really mean, I don't like poo-pooing someones latest car purchase especially if they're as...
I always thought built in Nav on a phone was a f**king stupid idea, and it kinda still is. My Garmin pissed allover every nav unit (even though its a few years old) and got me round Europe twice, trouble free! The less said about the trip with the brand new top end TomTom the better (Back in...
Sorry but the description sounds like a slapstick sketch. I did a small chuckle...
Fair play for being honest, and at least you're alright! Got a lot of parts on that, easy to transfer to a new shell...
Ah yes, the kit that adds no power but puts it up a tax bracket! I do think it looks pretty awesome though. Pretty good company car tbf, I got mine on PCP so I do have the option to keep in 3 years... as it stands I would want to!
I was going to do the hilariously cheap lease on the R but...
Yeah it was dry today for the first time in a long time and I forgot how Not-So-Shitty they can be! Still would rather have my F1's for all year round. The Conti's are meant to be better, mind you. But the F1's are £70 a corner!
How's yours doing? Any issues?
Talk to a dealer, the online finance calculator gives you hilariously high numbers for used ones. You can get a lot LOT cheaper talking to a dealer...
My F1's were always awesome in the wet though?
I let some Eastern Europeans clean it on my lunch break. They told me it was a "Nice Car" and asked what I did for a living. I was tempted to say "Pay for a finance agreement" but didn't.
I have this dilemma! I don't want to lose its playfulness, but when I go out for a blast with mates its...
I would argue on the Primacy's it power oversteers a little too much... especially over winter. I cant actually remember the last time the road wasn't icy or wet, so I cant remember how it was when properly Dry! lol.
For the record, mine was on 25k and cost me £16k, it was the cheapest one...
I hate people. People suck.
As has been posted several times, gather as many adverts for similar minty mcmint 205's and always turn down the first off or two from the Insurance until YOU are happy with it. You pay them for a service, they have to provide it...
