You mean to tell me that a car dealer is trying to make money out of buying and selling cars?? Holy s**t. Call the cops!!

Another bit of tinkering today. Whilst I was waiting for some wheels and bits to dry, I decided to fit a new (2nd hand) throttle body that I had lying around as my current one decides to tick over at 2500rpm. Making me look stupid. Swapped that over, problem solved. Fitted some silver...

Yeah, just apply the polish to the wool, rub it until it's at the level of shiny/clean you're happy with. Stainless steel is so so so forgiving and you'd have to use a hammer and chisel to scar it permanently.

For exhausts, I always use auto sol and a kitchen brillo pad to clean it up then a micro fibre and meguirs metal polish to make it proper shiny. For really bad exhausts (ones that haven't been touched for years and years!) I use wire wool instead of the brillo pad. Works a treat!

Can we use the swimming pool on the sunday? Great hangover cure!

I wouldn't entertain buying another mk1 without getting it on a ramp first to have a good poke around underneath.

Get a toyosport induction kit off eBay, £30 delivered. I fitted one on mine as it's not oiled so no maf issues. The noise it makes is ten times better than a dump valve.

Mums funky slippers?

Vectra, audi, Subaru, Subaru, Evo, 306, 320d. All had multiple oil changes during my ownership. Turbos scare me!

The local subaru place told me to run semi 10-40 so that's what I did. On every turbo car i've had I changed the oil every 3 months too.

Don't forget who taught him....

So I was dead in work today so I thought i'd tackle a few niggles... The windscreen washer pump wasn't working. A quick volt meter check showed power so I rang euro car parts for a replacement. As I was giving my address, I spotted a mates clio in the corner of the yard. I hung up on euro car...

Yeah, they came from essex!

Just watched it. Jeeeeesus! That was emotional!

I havent even watched it yet and that was my first thought! Lunatic.

And it's not lovely.

I've got that kit on my 1.2!! I'm going to the garage on saturday, I can get some fitted pics if you want??

Dan @ 519 Automotive sells them. Rates them quite highly too. I used them years ago on my old fords but that's not really comparable to a Clio.

All four wheels are supposed to rotate freely in order to pass an MOT. Are you sure that's what it said??

Let's be honest, it won't need it. His 560sec can light up the rears on the spot with ease. And that weighs about 2 tonne and isn't that powerful.c

Thanks matey. Yeah the wheels were fashionable when they bought them (10+ years ago!) but they'll be changing them before it goes on the road. 8.4 litre, 560bhp, and zero road tax too. :D

I doubt I'll be there mate. I'm pretty s**t company at the minute so you won't miss me. So yeah, the Aston. His dad bought it when he was 18 and he's 50-odd now so a long time. They've been re-building it for 13 years. Sam completely bare shelled it and painted it Aston grey. The paint is...

Yeah, 1970's DBS with a 8.4 litre American crate engine. Got line lock, AP racing brakes, 20's... It's fcuking badass!! I've got some pics hold on...

Yeah really good replica that.

Yeah it's had a bit done mate but due to the ramp going in, my car(s) going in and his Aston coming back, the clio has been put in the corner so I can't take any pics unfortunately.

T1R's. I bought them from someone in essex. A member off here but I don't remember his name. They're fcuked. Look like a dog has been chewing them. The tyres seem to be invincible. I've done two track days on them and whilst the sidewalls are showing canvas, there is still legal tread on...

ring me again tomorrow and you will

You stupid fucker.
