Silver 1*2 Nuneaton Longshoot Sat



  RB FF 182
I think I saw you on Saturday, you were heading towards the Longshoot on Hinckley road. If you flashed then it was me!
 
  RB FF 182
Lol! I remember speaking to you previously on here, and you saying you don't normally flash so I was quite surprised my self! People don't normally spot me, I don't feel that the silver/iceberg 1*2's stand out enough.

By the way, why did you have sunglasses on it was a right crap day!! lol
 
  BG 225 lux + cup RST
Yeah i do normally flash but i have up flashing those around Hinckley as they never flash back lol Yeah same as me having a black car, always in stealth mode lol

Lol was it? Good old sunnies are lovely to drive in unless it's dark lol
 
  RB FF 182
Lmao! Fair enough. Only person that's flashed me other than you was a trophy near to where you saw me. But I don't think he's a member.

He flashed me! I was quite surprised to be honest because no one ever does!! lol I think the silver 1*2's aren't immediately noticeable sometimes... either that or I don't look friendly enough... haha
 
  BG 225 lux + cup RST
Lol yeah bet it was him, he is on here

Yeah silver is like black in that they aren't as easily noticed as those colours which are solely RSs
 
  RB FF 182
I wanna get a flamer... I'll be spotted everytime then. Lol

I'd quite like a liquid yellow but I doubt I could pull it off. Haha

Yeah certainly a good way to get spotted. I fancy a LY R26 next :)

But I kind of like having a car that sits on the drive discreetly
 
  RB FF 182
Nice!!

Yeah, makes it all the more satisfying when the boy racer in his 15 year old corsa tries to take you on. Lol

Snap! Spent way too much on my meg over the last three months :-s

Now need rear brakes lol

I have ferodo ds2500s in the fronts but standards on rear so might go for a matching set of ds2500s on the rear now too.

Where you getting your brakes done / from?
 
  RB FF 182
Well I had a fluid change at Parkview in Hinckely cuz they're just down the road from work.

They are loads better now. I asked them to do a report on pads and discs. Front pads and discs are fine. But I need a new rear caliper and new rear pads.

They quoted £225 but Fred at BTM has given me a way better price so I'm going over to see him on the 30th! Would like him to have a listen as I'm a bit concerned about the dephaser! *fingers crossed*.

Have you had a quote from Gordon and co at Specialised Renault Services in Nuneaton?

I'm sure I have already mentioned them, sorry if I'm repeating myself Haha, can't see above posts as using tapatalk lol

Ooh good luck for your visit to Fred *fingers crossed*
 
  RB FF 182
I went to see Fred to have him check it. When he opened the door to his work shop it was flooded!! :-O

He said the brakes probably just needed cleaning but he said my dephaser was dead, and also my aux belt tensioner looked like it could give up at any moment.

He had no spaces for about a month so I had Gordon do it. They've done a few things for me. They were more expensive but not by alot. They said the timing was also out.

The car is now so much better!!

I had them fit new engine mounts and a powerflex dogbone mount last week too. I've told him to get on here and get himself known.
 
  BG 225 lux + cup RST
Oh god his shop was flooded?? Oh no!

Sounds as though you had a fair amount to get done then but nice that you are feeling the benefit of it :)

Yeah I would have thought they would have come on here to promote themselves a bit more. Think they have a lot of loyal customers so probably dont need to promote themselves lol
 
  RB FF 182
True!! I did tell him to get on here.

His son used to be on here apparently. But he's now got an inferno 225! Looks great.

It was either spent about a grand on it, or spend 3/4k getting a new car... I went for the cheaper option. Lol

If anything else goes wrong I think I'll burn it :-/ haha bloody French cars.
 
  BG 225 lux + cup RST
Yeah it's stressful when things keep going wrong with them. I lose the love for mine when it rinses me for money lol but the love is back for mine now as it's all cleaned up :) haha!

Yeah there is that lad with the inferno and his son who has a clip Williams iirc
 
  RB FF 182
One of them has a titanium 182 as well.

And forgot to say, yes Fred had been away and turned the water off. However, the meter it's self s**t it's pants and pissed water everywhere!! Whole place as flooded.
 
  BG 225 lux + cup RST
how annoying for him - he turns the water off and ends up with a flood lol

yeah they have a few between them :D i need to pop into see Gordon and co actually..

Yeah he was pretty pissed. Was half way through having his office done up as well! Luckily all the engines and bits and bobs were off the floor so they were ok.

He was still good enough to take mine for a drive and have a quick look over it though. After a couple of cigarettes of course. Haha
