  1. I'll keep you all posted, but Bridgestone will be releasing a new tyre early next year in a selection of sizes, called the 'Adrenaline' RE001. I'm going to see about getting a set fitted to my C, but so far, I'm hearing they're going to be VERY good!!!
  2. Might be worth posting a photo, someone will be able to tell you for sure. Shame you're in Torquay, I'd have offered to help with the sunroof and heater matrix.
  3. I'd have to agree, I'd get a heater matrix from GSF, ok, you'll pay about £45-50 for a new one, but at least you have the piece of mind it's a good one. With the sunroof, always make sure you get confirmation that it works properly, ie it both tilts and slides. My last Rado, the sunroof only tilted due to a piece that had broken of the tilting arm. The sunroof is a common part to fail on the Rado, so be careful when buying!!!
  4. Ah, not to worry, I thought I was only the 2nd person to ask for a XXL.
  5. May come along, although wont be putting the C on the rolling road I'm afraid.
  6. I hope you manage to sell. I ended up having to throw my old grey dash from my last C away, purely because it wouldn't sell. I think most people want the black dash.
  7. We had a good afternoon. Nice to put names to faces. And with the location, lots of room for more cars next time. Karl, thanks for the coffee, Matt - your C has inspired us, definitely looking at fitting some in-pro front fogs and indicators, maybe the angel eyes too. Very handy seeing it all on a C of the same colour. Louise got a couple of photos of all the cars, I'll post them later if I get a chance.

    Good call!!!! Although, tomorrow, I'll be buying the new Megadeth album, Thirteen!!!!! From what I've heard so far, it sounds good!!!!!
  9. I'd probably check the switches next. When you press the buttons, can you hear anything happening?
  10. Sexy Beast is a brilliant film, and Ben Kingaley definitely stole the show imo.
  11. Ok, don't laugh at this one. I'm sitting eating dinner with the mrs and being forced to watch Hollyoaks on e4. Some old guy is walking through a car park with a wheelie bin when we noticed a dark green (possibly a Storm) Rado. K reg, possibly starting K334. Very nice looking car, and about the only decent thing in Hollyoaks!!!!
  12. 16.35 today, heading along the A46 towards Stratford and saw a red Rado pulling out of the Wilmcote (I think) turning. I didn't catch the reg etc, but the guy driving it did have a green shirt, lol. And he didn't see me wave......although I was in the mondeo (silver).
  13. Just driving home from work in Coventry along the A46 and saw a blackberry VR, reg L4** YHB. I did stick my thumb up, but the driver either wasn't paying attention, or was a little freaked out by me in the mondeo checking out his car. Wish I'd been in my C!!
  14. I had exactly the same problem with my first Rado. It was as if there was no pressure there. It wasn't quite as bad as yours though. I never worked out what the problem was mind you, and used to get my foot in behind the pedal and lift it back, which seemed to work.
  15. On second thoughts, forget what I said about the rim size!! lol. 17" isn't too big at all, they just look chavy!!!
  16. Agreed, not sure what it is about the rims, they do look a bit chavy!! Maybe they'd look less chavy if they were slightly smaller?
  17. I am finding that it is a little different to FM3 to get the desired results, but keep at it, you will get there. My Rado isn't quite there, but each time I mess with it, it gets a little closer. Agreed on the clean lap problem. It's fair enough if you're chasing and get a quick lap due to drafting/slipstreaming, but it's a little unfair when you do a good quick clean lap, but it doesn't register as clean, just because someone got in your slipstream.
  18. Could you put me down for two sets please? Cheers
