Holy *#@! I've never seen one that bad ever! I wonder if the belt has been put on too tight and it's pulling down on the cog then forcing the belt off?? just a thought mate... Glad you found it..

Mrs B and my good self are of to Lanzarote in eight years.. The kids will have done the college thing and hopefully both in the RAF. I'm gonna be a semi-retired barber and club singer and Dawns gonna do Nursey stuff!!! Sell house for as much as poss and buy a cruiser.. May have to pay someone to pilot us back to Blighty if we want come back on hols though.. Not too keen on the open sea

Wiltshire....

Hence why I moved here... slow pace, relaxed attitude... not perfect, but second only to the Lake district in the UK (IMHO)..

Speaking of which, if money/work wasnt an issue, I'd move to a nice small village on the shore of Lake Coniston... but that just aint realistic

I've got access to an eight berth caravan in Haverigg.. About 15 miles from Lake Coniston mate... Get up there for most of the school holidays and it's MAGIC.. IF you fancy a weekend this summer we would be more than happy to accommodate you Ian.. Just let me know and we'll sort something out..

It doesnt matter what car I drive wether it be the IS or Carina I still get the same reaction

Next time I ask you for a picture of your supercharger I expect you to be sprawled accross the wing Mr Shipley... The women that I've shown the pic to aren't interested... They just want the horny pics of the owner

well all i can say is my car certainly got me a fair few "interesteing" encounters!

When i had my rover 600 turbo i got jack :tsktsk: attention and had no action in it!

Within two weeks of lex ownership i was having girls come up to me (dont tell the mrs) and all sorts of fun things happened (some stuff i just wont mention but i have photos, lol) hahaha.

Getting the tints definately helped and the amount of times i was offered money to drive someone round the corner to drop them off at the local night club !!! by girls, they are totaly vain! Its always good. plus as we saw last time at the bluewater meet the girl at the restaurant remembered me as the Lexus man, lol.

cars do make a difference to the way you are treated, by both sexes! men hate you women love you, lol.

I also get offered money to drive girls around but then that also happened when I had my "BIRD NOT PULLER FIAT BRAVA" quite possibly something to with the taxi plate but OH MY.. There is a definate difference in the way people are with my Lex.. "Have you won the pools" "Posh aren't we?" erm NO!!! "What the :tsktsk: are you doing using this as a Taxi????" Again Erm... Earning a living... ( You get the idea..) It bugs me sometimes that people think I'm "posh" because I've got an IS.. I'm still me and yes it is nice to get paid for driving my dream car around but at the end of the day it's a CAR... (Which I luuuurve)

:duh: ORAL :duh:

Looks very nice but how do my passengers get in and out of the back??? :D

Nods is confirmed Ken.. Bringing the whole family along with me as well.. Dear Mrs B and the "orrrible" kids will be tagging along for good measure.. Book us all down for ten pin Matey(the kids aren't too good but I've gotta give you all someone to beat haven't I?).. See you then,then

Anyone on Sky that wants an extra hour in bed can watch it on Discovery Plus.. I know it means getting up at ten to five but it's better than ten to four surely...I'm no rocket scientist guys.. had already set my alarm but good old Mrs B reminded me of the Plus one hour discovery :winky:

Welcome back Andy, Gayden was fun.. Just ask my lad when you see him.. I spent more time in the museum and on the off road track than meeting people.. (The joys of parenthood)... :D Are you going to the Humber Bridge meet on the second of May???? If you can make it I'll be going up with the family and any form of convoy will be better than a lonely drive with Mrs B telling me to slow down :winky:

Welcome soon to be addicted new member.. Hope you don't have to go over that expensive bridge too often matey.... :duh: :duh: :duh:

Not good if this is on at 4:00 am. I've done away with my video recorder and I'm just about to upgrade to Sky Recorder thingymajig..? Hope it's on again Don't fancy getting up at that time

Don't do this to me Aido.... What the **** is NXT and why do you want this instead of the almighty powerful Meguiars???? J' ne comprande pas!( i think that's proper French)

She looks ANGRY.... Nice!!!

I've already got an Argos one.. It's a good thing mate... I've always used Auto Glym products on my cars before the Lex but the blue paint on this shows all the imperfections when the sun catches them... B) I'm defo gonna get some of this Meguiars stuff!!!

:o Oh My ***! It's just let me in.. How many products?? Which ones do I need? which are the best? I've got swirl marks.. I've got light scratches.. Which product will fill all my consumer needs???????? HELP

I'm gonna have to get some of this stuff for the Calender competition I've just tried the link that you posted but it won't let me in No worries I'll just go straight to it.. Ps.. Have you told your neighbour about LOC GOLD?????? :winky:

Happy birthday Dave.. Any cheap property in Romania?????

Hmmmmm... Anyone know whether or not my Lex being a Taxi would give me that different edge that Lexus Edinburgh could just be looking for??? Time to polish again and get some new pics me thinks :winky:

I've just sat my two moggies down and told them that this is now the consequence for clambering all over my Lex.. One fainted and the other is on the phone to the RSPCA.. Should keep 'em off though

Quality night guys, only got in few minutes ago (got lost in Manchester and got to get up for work at 7 :( !!)

Good to meet everyone - I've just forgotten half of your names now though!!

The cheques in the post Nod, good to see you again fella, can't believe its 2am!!!

And yep, Matt C is a big scary Kronenbourg drinker (who I forgot to get a drink for - sorry fella!!)

I've been to bed and got back up to do an airport and now I'm on my way back to bed...5:40.. (another 90 miles clocked up).. Still fun to drive on the M60 when no-one else is around though
