Mods done to the car: Its on JOM Coilovers and has 8.5 x 16" ET32 with 195/40/16 and 9.5 x 16" ET38 with 205/40/16's Corvette C4 Salad Shooters 5 x 120 and is running the right adapeters. These are 20mm 4 x 100>5 x 120. I have added all red rears to the back and bought the right adapters for the wheels. MOT is till May 2014 (but will double check that) and I will put 6 months TAX on the car The car drives perfect with no issues and is quite powerful. Looking at the £2000 mark, but as i say consider PX. I also have a full cream leather interior and a turbo technics turbo kit with a modified Audi S2 Manifold to suit the KR engine.

  9. Cheers for the advise guys. I just popped into PC World on the way back home and they have a Lenovo Yoga 8 and its a 8". Does anyone know if this is a good one? There is a 10.1" on the market as well, but not in PC World. If anyone can shed some light on these will be good?

  12. Hi All, I have a set of of 8 x 17" BBS 090's (Style 5's) and want to split them so I can repaint the centres. The trouble I am having is releasing the bolts and nuts, is there a special socket and spanner I should be using on these? As I tried a 11mm socket and spanner and having no joy. Do I need to heat these up to loosen them off? Any help is apprciated Cheers Bobby
  13. Bought some new wheels, these are the rare 16" teledials:
  14. Yes I agree if I want to run stretch tyres, I will be putting 38-40psi in and checking regularly
  15. Yes mate its on the vette wheels again. But when I use my BBS on my yellow rado, I will not be running stretch this time round. I have learnt my lesson :bonk:
  16. No that is exactly what happened, low air
  17. Hopefully this time round it was just low pressure
  18. Hi All Driving home from work and basically it was running low on air, went to the petrol station to put air in, but the valves are too small. Tried nursing it home and 50 yards from the petrol station this happened:
  19. Very true has not seen polish in about 2years or so. Paint has faded slightly, especially. on the mirrors, bumpers and spoiler. It has some rust spo t on the bonnet. So first will use some g3 compound on there and the wet sand it to try and bring up the colour again. Hopefully will work, will get some pics up when I do it.
  20. Cheers mate, that is a big help. Also thanks for the comments guys
