Drove past an Alien Green 200 in the car park at the Riverside Tesco's in Dundee a couple of hours ago, first time I've seen one in the flesh.
The back looked great, though the colour seemed a bit strange in the orange lights there - not really what I was expecting. Didn't get a chance to...
Cruisin' top down (despite it being fecking baltic) in the del sol last night :cool:
Didnt spot you til I heard a yell from behind me after you'd passed by.
Car looked good though in the brief moment that I saw it.
As title really, went to unplug my laptop from the mains earlier and it just switched straight off. Since then it says "No battery is detected".
Tried all the usual gubbins like switching it on and off etc but nothing seems to work so any other suggestions?
Places to get it looked at...
Finally getting around to having my coilovers fitted. :D
Got the fronts on last week and going to do the rears some time in the next couple of days.
I was just wondering if anyone would recommend anywhere to get them set up properly?
I was considering just taking it to the likes of kwikfit...
Finally getting around to fitting my coilovers tomorrow :D
Just wondered if there were any particular tools or anything that I'm going to need other than the obvious spanners, allen keys, axle stands etc?
For example I thought that I'd need spring clamps but from reading an old thread on here...
Petrol light came on a few days ago in my car but with me being rather skint I decided to try and make it last until I got paid again.
To my surprise I actually managed over 50 miles from when the light came on :cool: at which point I chickened out and decided I'd better put some in or risk...
Went out to my car earlier on to discover this:
Got a nice big scratch down the drivers door plus my newly colour coded side strip :mad:
Happened right outside my house, no note or anything left though predictably.
I have my suspicions that it was some doddery old man in a...
Black ph1 172 (I think, though it had 16v badges so could have been a rep) complete with yozzasport/pedobear stickers in the B&Q side of the car park at around 3pm today.
Only caught a quick glimpse whilst driving past but it looked sweet as fook! :cool:
Silver one parked outside archies garage on brook street today at about 1pm, CS sticker in the rear side window and renaultsport.co.uk one on the back.
Looked pretty tidy :cool:
Met up with renclio earlier on today at the multi-storey in Livi to grab a few pics of the cars together :cool: I'll let the pics do the talking so here are the results:
All comments/opinions welcome :)
Bought these the other day from BREMBO (thanks again mate) after hunting for a set of alloys for ages.
Got around to fitting them on tuesday so went to grab a few pics yesterday :)
Car went from looking like this a while back:
To this:
Really need to get it lowered...
Ok so I'm looking at getting a new camera for x-mas (only a compact, wouldnt know what to do with a dslr! lol).
I'm planning on heading down to jessops within the next couple of days to see what I make of three that I have narrowed it down to so far and quite like the look of.
Before I do...
Apparently my mum has been trying to email me all this week and yet i have not recieved any of them :S
My hotmail appears to be working normally otherwise and she tried sending emails from my dads and my sisters accounts which are linked to hers and they both worked fine. It also works when I...
Ok so not that ambitious compared to some of the other projects posted on here but thought i would make this as i go along doing bits and bobs i've got planned for my car. (Apologies for the crap pics, phone camera + photobucket = gash quality) :o
Started off like this about a year ago...
The other day i bought a set of replica RS side skirts off ebay.
They are a black plastic and i'm wanting to get them colour coded as well as my bump strips so was wondering if there was anywhere/ anyone near me that anyone could recommend as i dont think i'd trust myself to do a professional...
This is an idea i've had for a while. I do a fair bit of driving at night and being the clumsy fucker that i am i'm always dropping stuff in the car or cant find things.
So I was wondering if it would be possible to buy some after market lights and somehow wire them in to the existing interior...
The thermometer in my car for the outside temp has been reading almost ridiculous numbers for the last few weeks (eg. today it said it was 38C outside when it cant of been half that).
Have kind of ignored it til now hoping it would sort itself but its a wee niggle thats starting to get to me...
was just wanting some opinions on the best laptop to get. i'm starting at dundee uni in september and need a pretty good one as its going to have to last me 4 years. lookin ideally for it to play dvd's and music etc. since that will save me takin dvd players, hi-fi's and tellys up to dundee lol...
i have bought an ecotek valve for my 1.2 16v but im not sure how and where to fit it properly. I have a rough idea but am reluctant to just start cutting hoses, can anybody help? pics would be useful.
