  1. That is stunning but whats with the lexus badging??
  2. How long until they start making variable vane turbo's for the aftermarket applications?
  3. Oh come on every one knows its esso has the tigers!!!
  4. I take it none of you guys against it have seen a proper flush fitting contour following metal tilt and external slide sunroof then? I say this because if you had you wouldn't be kicking up the fuss you are now. The mazda MX3 for instance comes with exactly that and apart from a minute seal seam you wouldn't even know it was there. I constantly drive with my sunroof tilted. It affords me fresh air when opening the window is going to disturb the air across my face causing me a distraction, or in wet weather when it will result in water coming in, and it also helps when demisting at full heat belt as the moisture needs a way out when it comes off the window. When pelting down the road a full slide sunroof will pull the hot air out of the car a lot less obtrusively than having the windows open. Yes aircon works well but as a rule I try to only use that when I am stuck in traffic, as aircon isn't really all that healthy for you.
  5. What a load of toss. Christmas is 1 day people 1 frickin day. Starts to proper take the piss when the merchandising begins before we've even had Halloween. Bugs the sh*t out of me that happy punters drag the day out until its sooo thin its lost its meaning. I'm gonna ignore it and all its supposed trimmings until boxing day!!!!
  6. PFFF and here was I expecting a pretty ruthless baseball bat or a big stick with a nail in it
  7. We have british blue short hairs. They is soooo cute. Long haired cats are a replacement carpet waiting to be hoovered up constantly.
  8. Someone obviously likes RED!! Each to their own. I will never understand why people will buy unwarranted half lifed components for practically the same money as buying new if you shop around. Reminds me of when I went to purchase a play station 2 on Ebay to be shocked at the fact that muppets were paying more for 2 year old machines than they cost new in argos??? Ah well some people have more money than sense. I DID TELL THEM, I can't however spend their money for them What you need right now is a big assed smug smiley
  9. Hmm alot more aero engineers on here than I first thought. Interesting to hear from the pointy end of the business, you guys don't normally experience hardships when the poop hits the fan. In respect to the comments about the holes in the other end of the boat needing fixing I still think the ones in our end of the boat are going to get our feet wet first and in most probability the ones down the other end are so big we'd have to stick our head out through them to plug it, we'd obviously drown doing that. I can also forsee that should we plug the hole down the other end the dumb ass's would kick a huge hole in our end just to prove their god was better than ours!!
  10. What the argies??? A little bit before my time ROFL
  11. Thats actually very nice. The back end isn't quite as obnoxious as some of the other stageas. Would a scooby wagon be a bit higher powered and available as a manual?
  12. Man up dude. My Ex wife had to use catheters for over a year cos of infections
  13. I think we've gone a tad off topic here but FWIW I think the object of the vulcan raid was not in fact to deny the runway (the harriers already stopped that from happening by their presence) The main objective of the Vulcan mission was to strike fear into the Argentinian troops and their politicians. It was a statement that read the Falkland Islands are actually very much in reach of British forces on a daily basis even from thousands of miles away. It was an effort in sticking two fingers up and very much a huge sabre rattle. It also starkly said to Argentina that if we can drop a dirty great bomb on the Falklands we can also bring a blue steel out of retirement and drop that anywhere on Argentina we wanted!
  14. I just came across this on another forum and thought that I would share it with you guys /v/4ikH9ZRcF2Q?fs=1
  15. Well that is the stupid country we live in and why financially we are screwed. They could significantly reduce our national debt by stopping overseas aid until we can afford it. Its a bit like having no job and giving your dole money to the homeless people thereby making yourself homeless as you can't afford your rent anymore!!!!
  16. Someone got themselves a "bargain" there then if you could call it that ROFL. It might be the split screens or rarer models then that I'm thinking about not just a van with a hole cut in the roof and an interior to rival a cowshed
  17. And the sleeping beast that was the eastern block has been slowly recuperating its own financial position. It would only take a staunch old school leadership change there to plunge the entirety of the rest of Europe into dire peril. They've been raking in money from their gas and oil reserves, and enjoyed no press on their military undertakings as long as the middle east has grabbed the title of "the latest enemy". Admittedly we are already being financially invaded so there is little or no interest in our country from any of our hereditary enemies, there's no point in invading a country that you already bought most of is there? Like I said we are now reliant on our alliances to prevent full scale invasion, which I suppose is a strength in itself but we've always been a self reliant nation. Sadly we no longer are.
  18. Yeah of course. LPG is higher octane than petrol for starters. As long as you match the vapouriser and injectors to the required power output you are all good. In theory it would be easier as the LPG ECU is already piggy backed off your main ECU. All you'd have to do is tell the LPG ECU to feed it more gas.
  19. You are aware that even the scabbiest most rotten out hulk of VW campers fetch about £10k? Be the best swap you ever did lol
  20. So the chinooks that were scheduled to be built in the UK or Europe no longer are . That spells for a career direction change on my part.. Bummer dudes. I know some people in the nimrod line that won't be too happy to hear the news either. Short term savings that screw our country every time. As for the nuclear deterrent I take it you aren't aware that our nukes are older than Noah and the government has already said the monies got to come out of the MOD budget for replacements so that won't be happening. We really are now utterly reliant on our alliances to keep us safe from invasion.
  21. Yeah that set is sitting in my shed awaiting some winter tyres.
  22. The snip is a doddle. Takes about 10 minutes and its just a local. Weirdest part is when you feel them pulling your tubes to tie them off Nice off-topic direction
