car tax changes- what will it mean for us
bristolbaron replied to GazzaG60's topic in General Car Chat
It only clicked to me today that my dad's a bloody 4x4 driver! He came and picked up a sofa for me that wouldnt fit in the back of the C no matter what i tried! :lol: His reasons are medical though, dodgy knee means driving at a more 'straight legged' angle is uncomfortable. Gone are his plans of a corvette stingray :mad: -
eww, not nice bud. my mate works in a garage and the spanner monkey [note the word spanner] had just done a brake pad change before my mate took it round the block. Wheel fell off as he drove up the road. The guys sacked now! [the week before he'd put a head gasket on back to front!]

PeteL, good to see you're still about! I saw today a RADO ON A BRIDGE!!! ... well i was excited. A bridge, with a Rado on it!! Oh, location.. Keynsham bypass, I was going from Bath to Bristol. It was Blue, and could well have been Butterfly's storm? -

saw a few yesterday in bristol.. Ashley down road, green VR? flashed and waved. Blue VR in st george parked up. Blue G60? Modded, with dodgy petrol cap! Also regularly see a storm parked up on ashley down road, anyone here? -
Welcome! Again, i cant say which to go for between 1.8 & 2.0, as i've only owned a 1.8. However, i can say both are good choices! Comparably the 1.8 is slower than the golf equivilent due to the extra weight, but insurance is cheaper! I'm sure your sons gonna be very happy with either!

I've bought 2nd hand H&R coilies for mine, but they're still being refurbed. Will post up here when they're on. From general experience though i've heard Konis/H&R's is a good combo or with coilovers buy FK Konigsports on a budget, and KW's or H&R's if you can! Anything less than Konigs will feel terrible.
