I like Steve Penk, but not when Im in the car. When Im in the car, the best thing ever is listening to the Pete Tong start to the weekend on Firday evnins, when I am just leaving work to go down to Chichester for the night. Lovely show, lovely drive, and fantastic women/pubs when I get there...

Get it done. A snapped belt on a mates 1.2 has caused me much grief as it bent the crankshaft as well. So Im still on the hunt for a new engine, and I can not be arsed, and its not worth his while to rebuild it again Get it done now! Paul

STOP STOP STOP!!! I take it all back! I broke a Halford Pro tool tonite! It was a T-40 torx key. The end of it came clean off whilst trying to undo a cam housing. Lifetime guarantee test time. What a time to break after I had been singing their praises! Paul

Rich, interesting results. Some pretty fair conclusions drawn there. Im sure it will generate some interesting responses. However, my standpoint doesnt change. If I am to replace my Williams for another Clio in the future, the engine will not be in front of me. Paul

We bought my girlfriends car from Tradesales. Fine if you have the cash, and want a new car pretty cheap, but dont expect any frills to the service. The salesmen are idiots, they know virtually nothing and so u must know exactly what you want. Theyre not intertested in haggling unless youre...

I have just ordered the above 2 sockets from the Snapon UK Website. £25. Bargain. Not. Still, my first snap on tools I have ever bought. A defining moment in my life. Paul

Snap-on are very good, but are they worth the extra? I mean yes its very nice to have snap on tools to show off if you are a commercial outfit, but are they really any better than some of the other top brands out there? Plus I know someone who has broken a snap on 3/8-1/4 adapter...he tried...

Will do thanks. Theyre for getting at those seized, awkward b*****d exhaust nuts on the join at the downpipe/manifold on the 19 16Vs. Youll know the sods I mean if youve ever worked on one! Paul

Joe, glad to hear u r also a HPro fan. Ive actually yet to find another person with a bad word to say about them. And another thing is that theyre not extortoinately expensive either. I got a medium sized chest, 3 trays of tools (1/2in, 3/8in and spanners) for about £200. (that was cos...

Thanks Renwill! Paul

What tools do you all use (all those engineer/DIY mechanics on here). I am constantly working on cars in my spare time, and I have always used the Halford Professional Tools. Ofcourse I have used other tools and heard stories about other tools, but in the 3 odd years of pulling cars apart...

That was my mates car, he was in Reading on Saturday. Hes only recently got it. Paul

What I meant was that there was no discernable closing of the gap between the Rover and I, even as he went thru the camera. I mean theres got to come a point in the speed detection where it either fires or not. And that is probably only say 1mph. Not enough of a speed difference to notice a...

FOR THE LAST TIME I AM NOT TRYING TO GET OUT OF IT! LOL!

Yep Griff accepted. However I could have not put anything about it on here at all...I can take it on the chin! And Chavy, thats somthing I can not understand...the Rover in front must have been travelling fractionally slower than me, albeit a good 5/6 cars lengths in front (as I leave nice...

St Horne as I have already said, Im not trying to find a way out. Im trying to be awkward. Griff, you have caught me out. My speedo was reading about 35mph when I got flashed....and I was not concentrating fully, just keeping with the flow of traffic....didnt even notice the camera...

Stop it u lot. Me want me want.
