Good old Bluewater car park eh Ben? Yaris looks quite tidy actually, not the biggest fan of the car itself though.
Haven't heard from you in ages mate, how are you? Coming to the meet Sunday? (You're not down)
I'm 22, I've known Jo my whole life (she used to live 2 doors down) her brother is my best mate. lol
I'm guessing I've never spotted you then as you're not in a clio (anymore)
You went to Chis and Sid? Really? Or Days Lane?
I thought I recognised your name...
You were there whilst I was then I think! (unless you're an old git) ;)
P.s I know there muchos love for the Honda's, but IMO the Elise is epic!
LOL! Loads of people on here, some of the most active infact, own mk1's, and everyone bloody loves 'em.
Back in your box
Welcome mate, get a project thread up and I'm sure people will be more than willing to help where possible :)
From halfords, if you must...
2 Buckets
Real lambswool wash mitt (grey one from halfords is pretty good)
Car shampoo, (I've heard lots of diff opinions on which ones, just pick one)
Autoglym SRP
Autoglym EGP
Megs polishing pads to apply the above
Giant drying microfibre (not halfords own, the...
^LOL!
As much as I enjoy reading your threads, I can't help but feel envious when I get somewhere around the middle of them, the further into "bitter" towards the end.
Git.
P.s How do you know Joanna Sadowski?
Hey man, thanks a lot for your post, explained quite a lot, and hopefully helps a lot of others.
Fortunately mine is nowhere in that kind of state, I've done about 100 miles in it since yesterday evening and it hasn't stuck, ONCE! :D
To say I'm over the moon is an understatement.
Going...
Cheers for posting that up mate, good work with the fibreglass stuff, it looks good and solid, could you fill the front of the crack with a bit of that, and then sand it down flat??
Where do you get the resin from mate? Any links?
Thanks for the info etc, and good work. Cup splitter should...
How funny you should start this today, a good friend of mine designed this, on the front page of the Sun website today :)

EDIT: It's be pushed off the front page now :(
I never understand why test station don't just do them with a decat, the MOT only certifies that the car was ok at the time of test, so as long as you don't get pulled and emissions tested as soon as you drive out of the test centre gates, (about as likely as Daniels garage standing up straight)...
Really like it bar the fog surrounds and rear badges... Fog surrounds may look better in person, but the badges arent for me.
Out of curiosity, what did you do to adjust the clutch? And what did it achieve?
Sounds like you bought it with some really good, money saving mods on it, and the...
Well I've just driven it to london, a journey which is 90% traffic, which normally causes at least 30 accounts of sticking, and the result:
Didn't. Stick. Once.
Seems taking it off and greasing it properly has solved it, but I think unless I get something better than WD40 it may just start...
Yeah, danny checked it on the tb side whilst I pressed the pedal, once you let of the pedal, (when cold unfortunately) the TB returns all the way back, its quite hard to check when VERY warm as the engine is hot and getting the airbox off is a pain.
Would it be worth checking then? As I can't...
lol! No offence meant mate, have you tried a proper tough wheel cleaner? Bilberry etc?
Like the spoiler though :)
Get the wheels sorted, lower it a bit, give it a proper clean and polish, and it'd look bloody beautiful.
No, tosser. ;)
I took it off again tonight with danny, and greased it all up good and proper, just with WD40 as I didn't have anything else to hand, it feels better, a lot better. Journey to work will tell all tommorrow. If this doesnt work, the very last resort is trying to get the better...
Going towards London, around the Bexley turn off.
Looked like white turinis? Tried to slow down so they'd catch me up, but you disappeared.
Thought I recognised the car off here?
Ok dude, furry muff.
When you wrote this, I couldnt decide if you were being sarky, as its quite a bit more than 25 mins iirc... but then I saw you wrote this...
So I knew you weren't being serious
;)
Why are you sometimes down this way Joe? (I remember you saying you was in Eltham at some point)
Where's karting? You could maybe make it for a pint or something.
