Nice pic ;) Hee hee, nice one Mave. ROFLing to that one. :lol:

Ok what I think he is saying is: (but don't quote me!) Used BBs aluminium rims. the whole set is being sold (?). The alu rims have been chromed. I have bought new screws at 150 euros, the chroming cost 1200. (no idea what he says next). Rims have not been used since chroming and are still disassembled. They can be put together for a charge of 100 euros. All in total they have cost me 2500. I wanted to put the rims on my vr6. They come with two spare covers as i chromed the wrong covers. The screw plate can be changed on one of them and then it fits. Please view as so there are no misunderstandings! Translation: used BBS RS 301 aluminium rims. A whole sentence (4 Stk) is sold. Let the aluminium rims chromium-plate. I have anew bought the screws. The screws have cost me to 150 euros and to chromium-plate the rims has cost me to 1,200 euros. I add calculation as a copy. Rims became after him do not chromium-plate any more used. Rims are still disassembled. However, can be assembled against surcharge of 100 euros by a company. The rims approx. 2,500 euros have cost me. Turbo wanted to drive the rims on my Corrado VR6. It gives two spare covers, since I chromium-plated two wrong covers. Of this cover can one the screw connection exchange and then fits it again! Considers my other auctions. Without warranty and cancelling. An inspection would be beautiful, so that there are no misunderstandings. With questions 01736190446.

Exactly Jim, we have driven faster than the national speed limt but obviously on private roads.. I doubt very much the vast majority of forum users would ever send information to the police, but this guy does seem to be more of a menace to society on the road and as such it's more of a civic duty. ;) Agreed. I think most people have a problem with this as he seemed to be bragging about it, there is no remorse from his side, he refuses to accept he was in the wrong and so starts slagging off everyone who criticises him. I'd shop him if I wasn't such a lazy git.

what's that big red thing doing infront of your bonnet? does it chuck in air relative to how fast the engine is running?

Jeez, you're a brave man! At the moment it looks like the Vauxhall Astra is winning in terms of common crappiness.

Aah yes, the Vauxhall Astra, how could I forget - had a GSI before my C, there is no comparison, the C is faster in straight line and easily round the bends. In fact, the astra handled like a sausage roll going round the corners.

Its on the fridge, everyone who comes round loves it... bit of a nasty landing though. If you look properly, we're only about a foot or two off the ground, its the bent legs that make it look like we've got huge air. Was totally knackered having sprinted along the stones for this, glad it was taken in one shot. Here's one of me looking normal at new years.

On a road trip in Devon last year, think this was taken at Beer......I'm the fool on the right!

I'm surprised he hasn't got knicked by the police. He admits to speeding at nearly twice the limit and not wearing a seatbelt -surely he could be done for dangerous driving? And he was probably smoking a crack pipe at the time too. Forward the link to the fuzz!

For me its got to be a Fiat Uno - horrible driving position for a nasty car. Closely followed by the old dears Saab 900 convertible. Truly barge-like in handling and looks!

Uh-oh, tin of worms...........

Thanks very much guys, MODS this can now be locked.

Do you actually need a spare to pass the MOT? I got some of that tyre weld stuff instead and AA membership....... I only ask cos my spare is in the boot cupboard gathering dust and I've just noticed my MOT has run out and I'm too lazy to put it back in. (Actually I pick up my car tomorrow from getting the windows repaired and thought I'd take it into a while-u wait place on the way home.)

Get his name and address from the DVLA, go round and restyle his taxi with a sledgehammer.

pm sent critical_mass.

yes please! will send pm with details once i work out how!

Sympathies go out to you. Sydenham is 15 mins away, but 40 by bus and a short stroll. suppose thats local for London. More local is Crystal Palace - boo to the Eagles, up the Hammers!

Forgot to say - THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT GUYS AND GALS, its made it a little easier.

yeah, its still more of a deterrent than nothing, at least they didn't nick the whole car. ironically i have a cat 1 alarm from my old car on my floor, but haven't put it in the C due to funding issues. :oops: Rang the insurers today and can't say i'm too happy with the outcome. Either i don't claim for my speakers, etc and pay £50 excess, or claim, pay £150 excess and lose 2 years no claims bonus (i didn't get a protected ncb - you always think its going to happen to someone else!). Left my car with the RAC in Sydenham today, they have got the parts they need but they're in Birmingham. Very useful. So now I have to wait till wednesday to get my car back. I guess what really hacks me off is that i was meant to be going out on saturday night, but fell asleep on the sofa, and so stayed in. if i hadn't been sleeping then i would have used my car, parked somewhere else and probably not had all this stress. I'm still absolutley steaming about this, 2 days on and the rage hasn't subsided. And i found out this morning the MOT ran out last month. Does it ever f**king end?

he was genuine, and wasn't local. i had parked opposite a bit of a nasty block of flats cos the road i usually park in ws full. what a difference 50 metres make when parking. cnuts indeed.

Luckily for me (is it?) I've got fully comp. This is the first year I've ever had it too, so its gonna be worth it. I'd only had the sub and amp in a week and hadn't got round to telling the insurers....doh! Got them from Egay so at least it wasn't a full price setup. I'm still mad, trying to drown my sorrows and take the pain away.

edited - see top. rang the insurers, but they were closed. another insult to injury.

Went to my car and found this..... Absolutely gutted. Got my 6x9s and sub and amp. Nearly cried! And now patched up: Do you reckon I should call a 24hr glass guy, or wait till tomorrow? Bear in mind I have £250 excess!

why don't you ask her for a race? drag and slalom. then you'd see which car was better (as if you didn't already know)

it does actually yes, it knocks at least 15mph off the top speed, thus keeping you to the legal limit of 70 ;-) ROFL :lol: surely the K&N air filter and sports exhaust will give him an extra 300hp?
