    Just seen a Jaguar Project 8, sounded epic. I was driving so didn’t get a photo. Shame that it had a two tone yellow/grey wrap on it (may have been some form of promotional wrap).

    The 90's best car decade!

    hers was taken from Meadowhall, not a surprise really. I had a 5 GT Turbo back in the mid 90's. I remember my brother borrowing it for the day, and when he came back he said he'd been to Meadowhall, I wasn't happy.

    The 90's best car decade!

    a friends mum had one as her daily runabout (she was a proper milf). This would have been in the late 80's. She got it as part of a divorce settlement. They had money but weren't mega rich, she just saw it as a bit of a sporty car. And yes in the end it got stolen and was never seen again.

    someone's got this one on cutters. They posted a few photo's of it with its new wheels on but unsurprisingly they never posted one from the front :ROFLMAO:

    Brake bleeding kits

    read about that, if that's the case I might be lazy and just take it back. (although I really should start learning to do more stuff on the car).

    Brake bleeding kits

    what's the trick to getting the brake pedal to work with little or no travel. My M3 has just had a load of work done, and one item was braided lines. After picking the car up the brake pedal now feels like it has an inch or so of travel before there's any bite. Before there was no travel at...

    anyone listen/watch the Chris Harris and friends (middleclass) podcast. Do you think the 456 breaking down was an act of karma for Manish repeatedly calling it Lola.

    The 90's best car decade!

    the 90's tailed off towards the end for me, when in early 97 my girlfriend told me she was pregnant. Went from single pringle, to partner, house and kid very quickly...

    The 90's best car decade!

    I'm sure I went to the watch a BTCC night race at Silverstone back then. Never did go to the F1 because we were poor, but did do loads of other stuff. Car crime was also a bit mental back then too.

    The 90's best car decade!

    I passed in 92, the 90's were epic for more than use the cars. mine was a late 80's car but I have a 5GT Turbo at the age of 21 Rallying, touring cars etc etc where all great to go watch.

    The Motorist (Hub) Sherburn in Elmet

    I think one of his issues is that it's a drag car with no locks and you don't need a key to start it, so anyone could have jumped in and driven it off. Plus I bet no one has ever driven it other than him, and he wanted to be there when it was being moved.

    The Motorist (Hub) Sherburn in Elmet

    Did he just load it up and leave without speaking to anyone? Wonder if they have replied to his post yet (I didn't go through all the 300+ comments).

    was on about this with the other half a few weeks ago. Our first newish car was a dark blue M reg SX 55 (55 hp :cool: ) and I can't remember the last time I saw MK1 punto on the road. As a young family we all over the UK in that car. I remember it struggling like mad with the hills on the A30...

    Saw three when I was over there a few weeks ago. They look relatively small compared to some of the other pickups out there. Saw a purple one in Canmore 🤮🤮

    I saw a mint silver one earlier this week while out walking the dog. Old boy driving it was sat at some traffic lights, he saw me looking and smiled. I gave an appreciative nod and he replied by doing a two minute burn out (that last bit didn't really happen). Did look cool next to all the...

    the GT3RS 'rebuild' has been a journey, but the car he bought in the states ended up being a parts car for the German shell. For me he can't really call it the same car as the one that's been underwater . The back story is being used for views, but that's how YouTube works. not sure on the...

    Virgin existing customer deals?

    Sounds like they are now automatically offering existing customers a decent enough deal but it took some finding in my account online.

    Virgin existing customer deals?

    just noticed that our VM bill has nearly doubled so had a look and our contract was coming to an end. So the usually merry-go-round starts. Rings them up current contract £84 (new customers can also get this package for £84) guy offers me same contract that he says should be £184 but he can...

    After a bit of head scratching I managed to sort my issue by uninstalling the update that I’d put on this morning. Amazingly it worked fine after that.

    Anyone had any issues with recent windows updates I’ve had one sat waiting to do on my laptop for a week or so. Just done it, restarted my laptop and now after two minutes it keeps freezing. I’ve turned it off and restarted it a few times but it keeps doing the same thing (freezing after...

    Two things Mr Cresswell needs to stop repeatedly saying “I was doing him a solid” He refers to Alex and co as old guys , even goes as far as to say they’re ancient. He can feck off with that s**t, I’ve got at least 10 years on all of them.

    I think AutoAlex will be finished by summer, add this video the fact that their content has gone downhill loads over the past six months or so and it does look good.
