  1. @Flytvr Looks like the place for your next service, have a trip up treat Mrs TVR to the delights of Chester, been loads of times nice place. Big Rat
  2. I love him dearly he knows that is it cake....... is it 😍 🐀
  3. Hey @Flytvr I realise why @Mark G hasn't been on here matey due to the state of his tyres he's been doing TV adverts just to finish them off, and to fund the next set 😂 Big Rat
  4. Yes it does having cake in one hand and a pint of the black stuff in the other at service reception does raise a few eyebrows 😂 🐀
  5. Lexus Bristol did what asked but as I always do with dealers. Picture of mileage and all four wheels. Car empty of all contents Struct instructions car not to leave site, if road test required contact me. Trust them ,yes up to a point but from long long experience of the motor trade, I also believe in protecting my investment, simple peeps 😂 Big Rat
  6. Yes it does don't suppose they are exactly cheap @robby g Bob could be a bargaining point as well as getting the wheels swapped round, if originality is important to you that gear knob looks like it's from a BMW. Big Rat
  7. Bob Is this the car if so it looks very nice, minor point all the wheels are in the wrong locations as they are corner specific. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201703083070233?make=LEXUS&model=IS F&logcode=p Big Rat
  8. @FTBBCVoodoo This is a good badge for it matey covers both aspects the new owners and it's as Clarkson says it's 'SPORTY' Big Rat
  9. @GibletPH A close friend is on his fourth XK/XKR he's had 2 4.2 and 2 5.0 his present one is probably one of the last made. Ive driven a few of these and his cars extensively, they are good very good, it's probably a car that many 'drivers ' don't really appreciate it for what it is bit like an ISF in that regard. His have been very reliable the 5.0's more so probably because they've ironed out any earlier issues and he drives as they were intended, he has experienced some handling issues with them, most the weight is at the front the tyres are very wide and in wet weather aquaplaining is something that has to be kept in mind. I got him up to advance driver level and just to prove the point on his final advance drive with the examiner whilst joining the M4 westbound at junction 18 the car aquaplained he fishtailed wildly twice without any warning but controlled it and there was no contact with anything 😳. None of this has taken away the ownership enjoyment of them for him, and you are right that supercharger is something else 😏 I think I would put one on my shortlist as well, and seriously putting all the Silver joking I do to one side for a moment they really do look right in this colour to my eyes. Big Rat
  10. Good luck with that fella, sleepless night for you then 😳 Big Rat
  11. That's it a clicky drivers seat is that all, Matey's C63 up the road is back at the dealers list as long as a gibbons arm, I believe clicky seat on his is about item 384 on the list 😂 🐀
  12. Yes you will need plenty of wonga to fuel the beast at the track, oh and some tyres and discs and pads............😂 Only jealous 😒 🐀
  13. I remember those real wolf in sheeps clothing...... oh it won't start...... oh it's rusting before my eyes........ 😂 🐀
  14. Bridgestone for me as well, all down to personal preference I guess, I'm more than happy with them. 🐀
  15. Nice driveway shame about the that oblong oil slick on it 😂 On joking top pic Matey 👍 Ratty
  16. It's not fear fella just good old common sense and a large dose of research 😏 🐀
  17. Well now you are asking and after I finished talking to you this afternoon I pulled out of a space and this pulled in filth utter filth 😂 Ok it's a 12 I'd be prepared to slum it in an 8 😏 Big Rat
  18. Driveways is part of what I do...... now you supply and fit 2 sets of those to my 8 wheels and I'll finish the drive 😂 Big Rat
  19. Back by popular demand, from Big Rat posters productions 😂
  20. I posted a thread on this recently even attached a YouTube vid how to do it as it's not easy....... cough cough 😂 🐀
  21. Won't you have to roll the rear lips, sure there is a thread on this in the last couple of months, could be wrong 🙄 🐀
  22. Yes it is but anyway @Stazza80 I have any idea....... dear Santa I've been a very good boy this year obeyed the speed limits, carried out all of the wife's wishes...... ain't gonna work is it 😂 Big Rat
