Lepsons offer a good service, and not too dear! i have had a few sets done with them over the years, p slots, 9 spokes, and aftermarkets too, and i have had a good service, go to the web site as i cant remember the phone number! they are based in kent medway towns, if you cant find them give me a shout i will get the details. -
Is it vag alarm? if it is it should be registerd with the dealer who fitted it, if you get no joy ring milton keynes and get them to boot the dealer up in the air!! ~ if not your best bet is an independant auto electrician or someone like that mate. :|

4 up at 155 in an XJR 4.0 V8 Supercharged Jag on the way to Silerstone a couple of years ago is the fastest for me! it was on the rev limiter! so it probably had tons more but is restricted! not bad for a 2 ton car! + 4 people it only felt like 80 mph as it was so quiet!

the silicon just re-seals the rim stopping any air leaks! the stuff bbs use is nasty! good waterproof silicon is ideal, dont know about the torque settings but its tight! dont snap em though or you will be stating again after a bit of drilling! there was a guy who sold rallyes who had all the bolts and rims he would know but i cant remember his name though! i am sure awesome or dubsport would know? -
Never! only ever gets used to look through letter boxes or break car windows !dodge i prefer the old queensbury rules (boxing) than using weapons let me nkow if anyone gets locked out thier car! !grr

your secrets are safe with me !amazed, no evidence! signed confessions only quite like the idea of mounted policing but its only the met and city of london near me who have those !sad as for playing with policemans truncheons! thats outrageous (its new name is ASP baton) which i think means "AV SUM PAIN"

Just depends how heavy your footwear is that day !lol i wouldnt really care if it only did 10 to the gallon everywhere! if its fun! might be helpfull to be an oil tycoon though? Mmmm if only 8o)

Managed to get a average reading of 30.2 mpg on the way back from surrey on sunday, its more economical than the g60!!!! nice to have some fuel left at the end of a journey!

!lol There is a roundabout near me and nearly every night a "chav" car goes into the barriers! goes to show you cant make a fiesta/nova/corsa/saxo go around a corner 5 people up on its door handles!!! if only they built them with stabilisers too much risk taking! they need to see some pictures of fatal accidents that may? slow them down a bit? shame there are any fatals but if it saves a few of them i am sure the parents would be happy!

No probs, I am in the medway towns, so just down the road!

My off side rear window motor wont work! power to the switch is fine as i get the click and a dimmed light on operation, checked the wiring in the door that seems fine & i have tried the old "slam the door and hold the switch down" trick but to no avail, if i replace it do i need the whole lot or do the motors just unbolt? will a vento rear mechanism fit? i have never had electric windows on any of the 4 vw`s i have owned so its all a bit new to me!

If you really want to join keep ringing to find out when the recruitment will start again, i can give you some good pointers when you get your application & interview, fitness and all that, no easy ways in im afraid but i am sure most people would love it! even the crooks think its a good job %-6 ! shifts are 10 hours so its not too gutty and you arent flat out busy all that time you get loads of time off and get to use someone elses petrol!!!!! you deal with good and bad, and no day is ever the same! and no i dont eat donuts! !shy but they are nice!

yep you should get a nice one for that money, just got my highline and looked at loads which could have been! but i am a fussy bugger! all were at that sort of price and spec, good luck in the search.

Dont know how many other vr6 owners are coppers? but i am!!!!!!! very worthy career 8o) bit of book bashing and procedure but good varied job! (and you can get away with driving at 159 mph ) only joking would you be trying to join kent police seademon? they have just changed training criteria, you now do a college degree at canterbury christchurch college over your 2 year probation period, but you do all sorts during that time not just college! they even let you loose on the public every now and then! theres nothing like a friday/saturday night to keep you busy! the things people do! :@ you

Chavs are great!! ~ who else can you rely on to take the brunt of everyones jibes! all walking around with the same clothes on and spitting! & cars with more filler than you can shake a stick at! they always have a broken head light! that must be part of the "chav" thing aswell it must be hard to slow down from 32 mph in a 1.1 saxo with an ironing board bolted on the back and 24kg of stereo in the boot! motorworld customers!

Me too- design 2 is the best i think, but they are all nice!
