I kind if agree,wasn't really Barrie before and isn't after,just a change of look for a new owner imo :)

Many moons ago now!had the sod for 5.5 years now! :)

LG and RB = so much love :)

Rofl,course it isnt! Hence the recovery period comment ;) water in the ignition system/sensors from jetwashing the bay,always takes a while to clear :)

Loving this thread,just acquired a set if f1's so few ideas for them now :-)

what a stunner!

not looking too shabby really, gave it a quick jetwash and clean up. yet to hit it with the autosol and polish, i hear thunder, but theres no rain. this type of thunder.....it breaks walls and window panes ;) pic and the recovery period, lol!!

thats perfect chap, absolutely love it and dream of owning an RB 182 FF like it one day :-)

me + corpse bride first car was a 1994 RT clio, then I had first valver then had a laguna for a bit when I rebuilt engine in the valver had several polos mk 3 gt couple of 1.3 CL's a mk 4 1.4 cl in classy pink then I had...

as above, 197 is a nice little distraction from the real deal, sort it out ;) hehe!

out the top is a pain, frame off and bottom exit is the way, hour or so's job then if it goes smoothly, which these days it always does with the box being out so often! :)

I know its a very stressful job and its easy to get caught in a moment and believe a person presents a threat, and as you say there could be weapons involved that we do not know about from watching a video like that. however from the final sequence it seems very much to me like the bloke is...

ah right, although tbh I just drop the whole frame to do the mk 1 anyway, leave everything up top apart from 3x bolts to box from top box mount then undo 10 bolts or so for frame/side bars/4th mount/column and ball joint pinch and drop the lot so it hangs off the downpipe, box drops straight out...

I put another layer of wax on the roof and bonnet then ran out of time for the rest as it was dark! lol!

I've been through 13 I think now, but so easy to change and so cheap to buy that it doesn't really bother me and the early mk 2 172 boxes seem to be the best of a bad bunch, current ones done 3-4 track days and countless pod trips, although its now snatching 3rd most of the time and 5th aint...

should see 10, think clocked the mk1 at about 9-10 once, again just off video timer so not exactly accurate. get that box abused, they love it ;)

looks good, I seriously love RB, can even make a great big fat mk3 heffer of a tank look good ;)

glad you saved it though, shame to see them sitting rotting

ai, that's the way society should work, if someone does something wrong beat the s**t out of them and wear a uniform to make it all okay............:headno: I really do wonder about people sometimes, the guy behaved like a total idiot and put a lot of people at risk, but that's no excuse to...

Audi S3 < Vauxhall omega

reset the trip after filling tank this morning, did the normal work commute of 12 miles and its now sat up at 46.5mpg :)

I agree, if it was xerus grey I would have it in a second for 2k, but I have same Luke like dilemma, it would be my daily and living outside, on the street. personally I wouldn't feel bad about using it, but I feel the seller may do ;)

ai figured it would knock the tracking out, simple physics like ;) nice to have a ball park and tbh its fairly simple to track by eye to get it close enough to run about in prior to a proper track up with the sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their heads :)

ah furry muffs then :-)

Re: T17OJC current owner I quite like the cloth cup interiors tbh :o

£100 a wheel?!!!! jesus, did they paint them with gold enfused paint or in real platinum or something! looks much better de stickered but I actually preferred it on the white wheels, but I kinda have a soft spot for white rims....ahem!

EU = fail tbh for pretty much everything, rule fecking Britannia I say.

on a car I care about I would never skimp on parts.....................oh wait :o

lovely job Danny boy, do like to see a mk1 being looked after
