Ahhhh. Breathe...... That's the funniest things I've seen in ages! Couldn't have happened to a nicer chap I'm sure. M. -
Mine would be perfect! I'm near the Suffolk border and the car's already had the carpet stripped out ready. .....Unfortunately it's also missing seats. And a dash. And an engine. Oh, and the gearbox, wheels, front drive train.......

Sounds fair enough - can we start a new list and see if there's enough interest...? M.

I'd like an OEM kit too if you have any or are planning another run.... Mark.

Holy-moly, there's some belters on there....!

Good grief, that is astonishing! The Labour tag in the corner raises an interesting point though that I haven't heard discussed; obviously Labour and Conservative will withdraw from the Scottish political arena in the event of a 'yes' vote - after all they don't run for office in Ireland, Belgium or France! So, will that leave just the SNP and then a few token pressure group type parties? Doesn't sound like much of a democracy....
-
Yes..... The idea of an independent Scotland with a British Broadcasting Corporation input does seem faintly ridiculous.

10w40 oil isn't 'thicker' than 5w40, in fact the latter has a wider operating temperature and should actually offer better lubrication while the engine is still warming up. Also, the Synta 10w40 is a semi-synth blend whereas the 5w40 is a fully synthetic oil so is generally perceived as 'better' quality. Check the oilman from Opie threads for a more comprehensive explanation...

....How do you know these things?! Lol :)

Weren't they original fitment on some models of the mk1 Audi TT....?

But he did have a terrific rant at Ferrari....

Revo do a map that will make the 3.0T S4 (why do they use a T when it's supercharged?!) faster than the latest RS4. Check out the Chris Harris (him again!) vid on YouTube... S4 vs RS4, or some such imaginative title. Edit: Ah, the Hoff beat me to it! -
Ahh, but only for 3-4 minutes. The full length features are now on Drive+; which you have to pay for :(
-
I agree with the comment re: Chris Haris - I could watch him all day long. It's really annoying that the YouTube Drive channel has gone all pay-per-view...

....Sorry to interrupt the chocolate; did someone mention cake?

I've always used VW/TPS paint up until recently, and Sean's right it does come it little cans with some lacquer, at a rather strong price. Then I found my local automotive paint specialist who can mix whatever you want (as long as you've got the paint code) and voila; correctly pressurised cans with the right colour in a useful size and at a sensible price. Who would have thought it in rip-off Britain! Go seek out your friendly local specialist my friend.....

Hey Michael, nice talking to you on Sunday and as discussed, car looks awesome in the flesh. Well done on the gong; I did try and find you guys later on but you obviously had headed off for the prize giving, richly deserved. Maybe catch up with you next time... M.

If I recall correctly, Mr Swampy left the forum under something of a cloud after leaving several members rather disappointed in his products. I think it's safe to say this one is dead guys. Mark

If it's a later one, then good for an OBD2 conversion...

You naughty little boys - just do what Mr Bacon says; it'll hurt less in the long run....!
-
John It might help to entice people in to give an indication of what the usual price is and hence how much they'll be losing out on if they miss this GB.... M.
-
That's brilliant - where did you find that?! Actually don't tell me, I don't really want to know, lol. :)

I'm interested too.
