  1. There's a good chance I will need to change the front strut tops for my next mot, depending on who is testing the car. My MOT tester mate says they are borderline, and he would let them through with an advisory, but some testers may fail them. Whats the best to replace them with? Any links would be nice??!!! Cheers
  2. Can also get zip up bags that have extractors fitted to remove moister, or you can get a rigid folding jobby, basically you drive the car up to the front of this cover that is all folded on the floor, then you just lift it over the car. It doesn't touch any part of the car, and allows a breeze through to keep it dry.....I can't remember where I've seen them but they looked quite good, and I didn't think they were very expensive either....worth a look....
  3. Will look out for the movie, but I see what you're saying, and yes it would seem that way wouldn't it!!!!!!!
  4. AHHHHH Movie.....looks like it might be fun.....
  5. Bundy, I wasn't having a retort back at you, I was just pointing out that even in a single parent family of old, kids ie myself and siblings were still bought up correctly with respect for elders etc. I know this is a touchy subject for some, and a subjective one for others, but it is so annoying seeing kids of today with no respect for others or others property/belongings regardless of where they live, or how many parents they have. But it really does appear to me that as parents, our generation has failed. It's our generation that comes up with these daft legislations, it's our generation th
  6. That clearly didn't have a lasting effect on you did it ! I just knew we'd have a smart assed comment from someone!!!!!! lol, and funily enough I thought it would be Mr Seabrook!!!!!! But many a true word has been said here, about lack of fear, and respect for elders. I too used to get a smack now and then, and most of the time I was bought up in a single parent household (Mr Bundy). But the system just seems to have failed. Now it's a case of ohhhh he's naughty, lets reward him, or, lets discuss your actions and the consequences they caused...no thanks I'm off out..oh, ok see you later.....
  7. I've got a couple of days off work, some came into town to pay a cheque into my bank. I decided to go to Maccie D's for a capuchino, whilst in the very small queue, a couple of girls stormed off as they weren't served STRAIGHT away, then there was a lad waiting for his double sausage burger. The assistant called out for his double burger, the lad walks up takes the burger with a very don't mess with me look on his face and not even a grunt of acknowledgement or thanks for the assistant. I felt like slapping the little s**t. WHY are kids growing up so RUDE and so UNGRATEFUL. has our generation
  8. think you'll find they are the same. also check GSF and TPS....premium members get discounts from these 2......
  9. This IS you power steering pump. Most pumps do this very slightly on full lock when they are starting to pack up, and you can hear it as well as feel it. It's like a ticking sound with a whine, and the steering wheel twitches. As the pump gets worse, the sound gets louder and the steering wheel starts to kick. The end result is your steering gets VERY heavy, but the car is still drivable, just wouldn't recommend driving very far like that, basically to the next garage to get it changed!!!!!
  10. More please.......how much do you need to spend?? is it for anyone or someone specific and whats NOT allowed????

  13. Lenso do a good copy. I have seen a set on a car and they looked very nice.....
  14. Yes mate, both on the same side went through the same HUGE pot hole....And you've got a report to say the wheels are out of shape!!!!!!!!!! I know what I'd be trying!!!!!!!!....after all, we pay ROAD FUND LICENSE to stop this sort of thing happening.....Don't we???
  15. I know what you're saying..... As you said, £1200 is desperate, and seeing as James isn't in a hurry to sell, he can hold out for a higher price. Yours is slightly different in that it's a highline model, so more desirable.......... Any pics of the strut braces yet????
