5 mins from home and..."bang!"
A badger decides to cross the road. Looking at my options it's either get the front repaired or go through the insurance and (hopefully) get it changed for something diferent!
It never rains but it pours.

Good luck in your search.
Hope to see on here with pics of your new purchase.

Such sad news. My thought are with his family.

Gone in 60 seconds eat ya heart out!!!
You're not wrong there! I wonder if we'll see highlights on 'Police Camera Action'?
Phew, lucky I have an NA.Mine too! They won't know what they've got until they're behind the wheel. If it's an NA they'll probably just smash it into a wall out of frustration eh!

Whilst driving up to North Wales late on Friday night, I was stopped by the 'boys in blue'. I thought I was surely going to see my license disappear (as I was pushing the rev counter!), but no. Phew!
The nice officer (a dog handler who was pushing his Ford Focus to the max to catch up with me after about 4 miles), explained that car criminals are operating in and around the NW and Cheshire area. That's why he gave chase. He thought my car was stolen.
They are stealing high performance cars and driving them to Holyhead, where they are put into containers and shipped abroad.
So good people, you have been warned. Lock down your cars, make sure they're alarmed or hide them away safe, 'cos you might wake up in the morning to find your pride and joy gone!

I'm just a bit further down the M6 towards Middlewich.
My home is in Winsford, not far from Warrington.
Welcome to the club.

!7" or 18" Alloys with or without tyres and not any nasty stuff that needs refurb willing to pay cash or paypal
Got a set of these - Diavaletto 17" wrapped in very good Eagle F1 tyres. Jay has them at present, but if they're not sold they're yours if you want them (for some green of course).
Cheers,

Hi Paul,
I've been away for a while...but now I'm back
in the club!
I did a swap for a pair Gareth Eaves had.
I still have his the old pair. (Soz Gaz!).
Slightly yellow plastic ones but no leaks.
If Gareth Eaves agrees, then you could be
the new owner of the pair.
Let me know (or Gaz Eaves) and we'll sort
something out.
Cheers.
Happy New Year.

What do you need artworking? I'm still busy working, but could knock up artwork if it was reasonably small.
Currently run OS9 & OSX (quark illustrator, photoshop etc)
...you know the score SupraStar!
Email me at [email protected]
Let me know what, why, how, when...

Depends where you go.
Most places will split the rims down to their 3 parts,
repair the damage and re-fit. They'll probably charge
you for new rivets too, as the old ones will have to be drilled
out.
Maybe see if they can mask off the inner wheel while
the outer part is refurbed. That way you save money.
I can't recommend anyone, as the bloke I took mine to
in Ross-On-Wye was a waste of time. I'm currently looking
to have two of my 19's done.
Good luck,
Gaz

Hi Pixelfill (or should it be 'Studio Max' or 'Rhino'?)
Obviously you're in the world of rendering, yes?
Could have been me heading South around 6pm.
Just finished freelancing in Warrington and came off
at Jcn 19 to head for Northwich.
Was it a silver veilside with 'bling 19" deep dish' with the
roar of a lion.

If you have no luck, speak to Ray.

Also newbie Ben from my neck of the woods.
Need a lot of notice though.

Sorry to read/see the damage, but as mentioned earlier, it's not too bad.
If you're after another cover for the vent, email Chase on here,
as I sold both sides vents to him and I know he only needs one.
Not sure which side he used though.
He could post it down to you, they're only plastic so shouldn't
cost a fortune.
Good luck.

Gaz,
what route are you planning? You could do a shoot
at several locations around old mills and/or countryside,
rolling hills and the like!
I'll try and get hold of those other two near me and we'll
convoy to a meeting zone on route.
Later,
Gaz

Nic,
How about spraying it silver first, then your desired colour
over the top. Then you can cut the top layer of paint back
over the lettering to reveal the silver!
Shall I get my coat?
Gaz

Supra vs Badger
in Off Topic
Posted
Hi Hoff,
The irony is, after stopping to see about the wounded, the badger just walked away. Absolutely bullet-proof (unlike my car).
Chatted to Sky this morning, they tell me that there will be a 10% increase in my premum next year. Added to that the excess and I'm looking at change from £300.
What's a bloke to do?
I've been in touch with the traders and not many have anything in stock, so it could be that I wait up to 5 weeks for a new replacement or fix it.
oh brother!
