It’s not 80% profit though is it. Take out tax, vat, prep, time, insurance, premises costs, and it’s nowhere near 80%. 80% markup isn’t unusual. do you lot get upset when Tesco’s sell you £2 of bananas that they paid 25p for?? I’ve never understood people being bitter about someone earning...

It’s almost as if car dealers buy cars to sell on at a profit....

Is that a 197 on 182 wheels??

I’m not a fan at all. we could really do with one in the truck at work (reverse cam, sat nav, Apple car play etc etc) to get rid of all the phone mounts and cables etc etc but actually using them whilst driving is proper hard work so we’ve avoided it. I agree, they’re way more distracting than...

any updates on this??

I put J&R shafts on my passat estate. Regularly towed with it and generally abused it. They were perfect.

Mount the shoulder harnesses to the bar on the cage. mount the lap straps to eyelets that have been put in the floor with spreader plates underneath.

They’re not suitable for a loser like me that’s for sure.

Amazing!! ironically, last weekend a mate rang me to ask me what way his new BMW badges had to go in because he said he couldn’t cope with me moaning when I saw it next. 😂😂😂

I’m we don’t all eat raw potatoes and drink John smiths whilst driving Citroen Xantia’s running cherry. some of us have class. Alastair has proven his class with his (frankly epic!) choice of lager.

Go on Facebook, look up Renault parts direct. If anyone can get them they will.

Got a link to the advert?

Is it for sale?

When you get the wheels back, scotch up the wheels weights and use a touch up pot of lacquer and go over them. Keeps them nice and silver/shiny and stops them going crusty. please. it’s a pet hate of mine seeing nice shiny wheels and crusty wheel weights behind the spokes.

If you didn’t, we’re both going mental 😂

Great read sad dog. I’m very jealous! (f**k me you’ve put on some timber!)

Rentech every time.

They are terrible for it!

Social media is littered with them. Dream car giveaways, redline competitions, botb etc. There was one this morning with a blue Focus ST. Looked like the car had never ever been cleaned and it was photographed in a pig shed. 🤦‍♂️😂 Everyone is at it it seems.

Because he’s an entitled t**t? he doesn’t see it as ‘his’ problem. He thinks that someone else should deal with it.

It’s not easy money. the majority of people that win these cars are f**king mutants. they can’t afford the cars, they can’t afford to run them and they s**t themselves when they win. Not too long ago I was reading a thread on Facebook of a guy that won a modified TT. Had it a week and the...

Me personally, I find that B14’s are the perfect suspension for road driving. Really really compliant for the roads and stuff enough to press on. But not so stiff that you hate using the car as a daily. I really really like them on a 1*2.

Tried that but its then too short and the metal band that holds the bristles in catches everything.

Brushes! I need a brush that I can use around lights, door handles, window seals etc. we’re doing a few older cars and I’m not happy jamming the jetwash in to places like I do on the newer stuff. The usual hog hair ones are too floppy and soft and aren’t man enough and the cheap nylon ones...

Jim is this the first one you’ve had that’s s**t itself?

Back in 2003 I used to sell them with air con for £12,495 pre registered. £11,995 no air con.

Uh oh. What’s happened to it??

Depends what car you’ve got, has it got the standard stereo or an upgraded one? what adapters are needed and what stereo you’re trying to fit. Basically you need to give us a bit more info.

Stick at it mate. (if you do sell, shout me on the gearbox!)

I’m sorry... your friend sold his car because his wife ‘told him to’ ??? you need new friends. Ones with testicles. I mean you’ve done alright out of it but he’s a massive wet wipe.
