Can't say I'd be bothered if it was always online. My broadband hasn't been down for a long time.
We went without for about a week in 2010 but that was due to cancelling sky ADSL and going to BT infinity (there was no migration system in those days for fibre), apart from that I can't remember...
It's no effort really.
I have had to buy new spigot rings, as mine weren't worth messing with, but cost is:
Wheels - £195
Courier - £28
Refurb - £64
Spigot rings and centre caps - £25
Total - £312
So less than half the price of new, bargain!
Just to update this for anyone searching for answers.
OZ changed the centre bore at some point, they used to be 67.1 but have since changed to 75.
I don't know when the change was made, but ultra's are only a few years old so it's recently. Mine are early ones, and are 67.1, which luckily...
Cambelt could be due on age, plus a bit to tidy up the wheels (I think at least one was curbed) and a splitter (£120 if you're fussed about genuine) and it's not such a bargain.
Little update
Dan@M.A.D is making me up a plate for the cruise buttons, unfortunately it might not be fitted for a while as I go back to Uni a week on Sunday so it will have to be when I get back home at the end of May :(
But, these turned up. Bought them on Gumtree (which is dodgy as if...
Think I've settled on the audi grey again.
Just waiting for the tyres to come off and the guy is removing the spigot rings too, then I'll get them down to the refurb place.
Yep, finally came today, although not too happy about the description of the tyres. He said 2 with plenty and 2 just gone illegal. The 2 with plenty have 2mm and 3mm on them, the 2 that have just gone illegal:
I actually cut myself and started bleeding from the sharp canvas coming through...
Choose quick guys, I am setting off to the refurb place asap!
These came today, was going to go anthracite, then decided silver, then thought that looks a bit bright so decided for the Audi Matt Grey. Now they have come I quite like silver again, thoughts?
The audi grey is the same as the...
This.
Credit card at an acute angle, apply lots of pressure to the card and peel the backing off at the same angle as the credit card.
No hairdryer required.
Goodyear F1 GSD3's are just short of £80 on camskill and you get a tenner back in fuel too, so £70 per tyre.
I had them on my first 182, great grip in all conditions and they last for a long time.
Could well need belts if it's high mileage, and a suspension refurb, and a steering wheel. That's about £1k total, + a bit to give it a service and a tidy up and it's turned into a fairly expensive high miler.
You need to give them a ring and get the details.
Number 155 - no details on the register though

If I had a £10k budget I'd be after an early but well spec 200 or a tidy Ph1 V6.
I wouldn't buy a Clio that's had a turbo/itb conversion as it could be a proper money pit, especially if you can't do the work yourself.
Little update on the cruise control situation.
Last night I decided I didn't want to drill my nice new wheel, so instead decided to design some sort of plate for the buttons to sit in, similar to BIGASH's in his project thread.
I drew something quickly, (I won't post it as i'm no technical...
I'd say the battery is shot.
Do you have an apple authorised repair place local? Not an official store, just an authorised little independent. If you take it there, they will likely stick one of their batteries in to see if the problem is resolved for free, and you don't have to que/battle...
Hose reel is essential IMO
I have a Karcher and the only issue I have is the hose and power cables have no storage system, so storing it is difficult and messy. The better Nilfisks all have power cable storage and hose reels which I really would find useful.
