After 7 months of SORN, it's MOT is booked for the 7th provided it doesn't rain ;)
Started first crack after it's slumber on the c-tek and ran as sweet as a nut! I think I may have a very very slow puncture on the passenger front though, it needed air last year and looks slightly low again...
So last November we were at a local charity do and there was an auction for various items. One of the items was a Z4 for the weekend of your choice, with all the money going to a local hospice I won the z4 at £140!
With today being my birthday I took a long weekend off work and picked up the...
This car is literally 1 mile from my house, when I was going around in my old Black Gold V6 circa 2007 it was driven and always clean. It's been sitting dumped for basically 6 years. Engine covers are nowhere to be seen and its paintwork is wrecked, looks like something's been poured over the...
Had a bit of free time today, and I gave my other pride and joy a bit of a detail session,
First washed with Autoglym bodywork shampoo conditioner, towel dried and left overnight, and then I found some menzerna polish lying around so gave it 2 coats, dressed the plastics and cleaned the glass...
Hi guys, completely new to cameras with the exception of my average point and shoot, and my iphone 5S.
A friend is selling a 3-4 year old Canon 400D in excellent condition, with a Canon 18-55mm lens, case, box, instructions etc.
Its silver (would much prefer black) and he's after around £180...

Can anyone reccomend me a headunit which is decent but not going to break the bank? It has to control my 5S and allow me to make and recieve calls, and also charge my phone via cable if this is possible?
Its for the tractor which doesn't have a 12v plug and my battery barely
lasts the day :(
Been sorned now since end of September, April feels like ages away but there's some big expense coming before that in the form of its 10 year old second cambelt service.
Also being done will be Water pump and aux belts, clutch, check the dephasers, fit KW's and a few other jobs.
I saw this in New York on the TV when it was on live and completely forgot about it till yesterday.
Thought I'd share it as it's pretty amazing, there's a slow mo on there too!

Just recieved an email from stormfront, offering the same deal I used for my iPad 2 years ago, which is 10 months interest free credit on apple products,
Instead of upgrading my iPad I was tempted to just get a MacBook pro, as my laptop is goosed and currently doesn't let me back up my phone...
Is anyone else finding their's extremely poor?
Ive had 3G, 4, 5, and now 5S and I have always had the settings the same, same brightness, bluetooth on, wifi on and keep my apps closed regularly.
It seems as though each minute im using the phone (even on wifi) the percentage drops at least 1%...
Very happy with how these came out, They weren't massively dirty to start with but look factory fresh now :approve:
Keeps my OCD happy, also detailed the underneath of the skirts etc, just need it raised up now so I can clean the undertrays.
Jobs for the winter, KW V3's, new brake discs and...
We took over the lakes again for the annual V6clio.net lakes meet! Lots more to come but thought this one was awesome :lolup:
a couple before I set off in the morning
Saw this tweeted by Harris and its truly inspiring! I'd like to meet the guy and just say how amazing his attitude is!
The bit where he's eating his dinner with the device for the spoon was amazing!

Had a 200+ mile schlep down to Windermere yesterday, then headed back north using as little motorway as possible, and came across a simply epic road between Orton and Appleby right up on the moors.. I was in my element horking the Vee along, feeling the weight shuffle around over crests and...
Think I started too far away but with decent headphones or speakers it sounds pretty decent!
will try again the next sunny day!!

A quick dust off, MOT is booked and some tax required and it's back on the road for hopefully some nice sunny weather this year! I'd like to beat the 525 miles it managed last year :o Oh and finally fit my plain plates and ditch the stupid squint ones
Need to get the V6 out and back on the road while the weather is great!
Its currently SORN and the MOT has ran out, is there a limit to how far the test centre can be from home?
Local garage could do it 2 miles away, or Renault is 15 miles away, and also once it passes, can i drive it home...
So today I bought myself a 911 GT3 RS, couldnt decide on colour but in the end we both agreed on black, with red detailing and limo tints all round! :rasp:
£8 in the Red5 gadget shop and full RC functions.. Even the cat loves chasing it around the house :o
Because kid
Impressed with the...
Had the BMC filter on the Vee since I got the car, and I've never been happy with the sound, and found that it used to knock going over bumps etc, it sounded nothing like the pipercross viper evo on my old mk1 Vee,
So as the car is SORN I did a bit of investigating and upon removing all the...
Looking into some KW variant 3 suspension for the v6, and I'm prepared to stump up the required £1466 for them, however..there is an alternative in the form of BC Racings coilovers, which are fully TUV approved etc, and for only £691,
Im aware the legendary KW quality might not all be there...
Jumped at the chance of these as they are no longer available new, will come in handy in the future I'm sure!
Shiny awesomeness! :cool:
dunno weather to have them fitted up and have my existing ones done in a darker colour...this leaves the problem of the side vents and them not...
