There seems to be a lot of fretting and fuss over what would happen IF there is an issue with the repairs. Any REPUTABLE bodyshop will have a pretty thorough inspection process that the car will be subject to before it is handed back to the customer. Unfortunately this doesn't always take into...

I'm in.

All day long ;)

Maybe as a comparison you can then jump in with Dave or Nick at Snett or Donny (dates TBC) then you can see how poor they are at lower RPM ;)

Deffo the 92/93 BTCC scheme for me.

Nick's rolling in a 182. He's gone up in the world....;) List edited. Sam J - Nissan Silvia s15 Sam J - Mini 1380 Rob_SRi (me) - Clio 182 Kez - Civic EP2 Paul Foster - Porsche 924s Chris - BMW 335d Matt - Mini KAD Sam - Mini 998 Joe - Polo Mario SRi - z20let 2.0T Corsa SRi Luke R - Astra...

LOL. I can vouch for both of the chumps above.....both can pedal a car very well. And neither have blown up an engine....unless thats what grades a driver as good. If so, both are crap.

Dollop of Oppo req.

Oh thats an impressive blonde moment on my behalf....:o See you there then.

Car is looking and sounding incredibly fit gents. I'm more than a touch narked that the Brands race is on a sodding Monday...

PM'd you Rob.

I've just decided that i want a works S1600. Sod a V6....

What colour did you want your bonnet done again Ryan? ;)

In the voice of Lloyd Grossman, lets look at the evidence... NSF tyre - Fairly intact Season - Evidently winter (cold) Road conditions - Moist/Muddy/Greasy Speed - 50mph (claimed) 60mph + more likely I am all for a spirited drive down a lane, but sometimes uncommon sense and a degree of...

The bent one was a coupe shell anyway..

That picture creases me up no matter how often I see it. Nick vs Food. Food will always lose. The bonnet was being painted and its daft painting over dents. We don't run a cowboy outfit here Dave....you should know that. And yes....its possibly the tartiest track car in existence.

Yeah that's £13 with some discount! Im actually going to make them and start selling them myself I think.

You forget, I had a Nick. He swallows bullets, deflects knives and farts fire dontcha know? ;) Anyway, could you imagine us trying to leg it with a cage? It would be pure comedy! It took us 5 minutes to figure out the best way to get it in the back of the Pug! :)

Cheers Tom! And in answer to your question, in a word, no! It's entertaining on open empty roads but but using it in traffic and on crappy commute routes is hellish. I can cope with it on the odd day but daily it would kill me....and probably itself.

Glad you've got it back Emma! Was kinda expecting them to miss the stickers as well. I went to order a pair for mine once the front was painted and found they are £13 for a pair! I made my own...;)

January 2012 So come early January I set about removing and dismantling the front bumper and stripping off the myriad of components from the bonnet and wings. These consisted of the washer jets and indicator repeater lenses. Busy busy! I then set about cleaning up and re threading the stud...

2011 August –December Bedford was the last trackday that the Cup would attend in 2011. I thought it was now time to start looking to advance the car in terms of its track setup, using Nicks Cup as inspiration. His wider track and significantly more negative camber gave him the edge at...

It hasn't any previous other than this accident that we are repairing (shunt from behind, damage to the bumper, rear panel and a new tailgate) What I've been trying to determine is how much drop it is supposed to have on the section where it meets the rear panel. The floor has been slightly...

Thanks for the pics guys. I'm aware that it falls away for the last inch or so but the one we have in seems to be much more severe than the ones I've now seen. As you can see... There is also a tell tale crack in the sound pad (or the tar as we all know it as affectionately) that runs from...

No, im just lazy!

This. Excuse my wording Rob, wasn't aimed directly at you. We've had a case just today where we have had a 8000 mile 60 plate Honda CRV written off. A car which was 28k new. Perfectly repairable, as are most things but its a big repair, needing a quarter, sill, pair of doors, pair of airbags...

In terms of the courtesy car situation, I think if I was hit by a third party and offered like for like then I'd turn it down. The reason being that the cost per day of you being in that car actually goes on to the costs of the repairs so even if the cost of the damage to your car is below the...

I'm actually in the middle of writing the rest of 2011 up to now. Just been a bit lazy....
