not a good advert for castrol gtx then...In keeping the engine cool and free from friction etc. :o Yours suffered a lot of friction with a hole in the engine!

Well, I cant believe the 70 bit for one minute :D Thats why I didnt just equste some maths. Stop sodding worrying/joking bout the mobile phone tingy, I have never issued a ticket for using a mobile whist driving, cant say why, but the words "not being a Hypocrite" spring to mind..

if I can try the impossible task and attempt to judge what time you'll all be going past j9 (Dunstable turn off) M1, I will try and tag on. (thats if missus and baby are all ready to leave at a set time on saturday in order to do this.) Impossible question time, any ideas give or take 30mins, what time you'll pass J9 of the M1 heading north. This junciton is the one in the middle of nowhere, past emel Hempstead at J8 and before Luton J10.

Laughs out loud.... :P

Shahz, if you are talking about the 100 plus club on the M-Way, I was there with Fargo. (maybe I was the third car in the convoy that you refer to?-no mention about my job anyone please on here, this is a public forum and can be read by anyone. :P ) I slowed down as in the distance I saw flashing headlights about two miles back on a bend and dip in the M25. I thought I had "had it!". That is when you buzzed past me whilst I was doing a "steady" 65 in the slow lane and you beeped at me in the fast lane I tried to get your attention that the blues and twos were coming...... Once the white estate Focus buzzed passed on blue lights and it was clear that it was "only" a dog unit already responding to a call, not motorway traffic unit. I then sped up again behind you and flashed my headlights, do you recall? I was gonna tail you all the way to my Hemel turn off, but the Blue E class old dog Merc pushed in the way and you were gone...

:winky: whats that all about?

Thanks again to Pete Jenkins for me having his second space on the list.

I agree, top marks for arranging that. first TV prog filming i have gone to/been part of. good to see Jezza, james and richard werent up their own ****s and were happy to chat with the audience between takes. I know some members on here are likely to be very prominent in a LOT of the camera shots when screened on sunday night. Couldnt miss you Scorpion. Good to meet some new faces, didnt get to speak with everyone, but JA is almost upon us-----beer-a-hooeys a plenty will flow, there'll be more time then. :D

as per my Ace-A406, N W london thread, I am going to go straight to the Cranleigh pub hotel thingy....Is it for 12pm is that correct?

ok, making my own way to the cranleigh pub

was watching the bidding. less than 1 minute to go and this happened http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 If the link works, it should show bid ended by seller due to incorrect reserve price etc. Maybe it sold elsewhere, or at last minute panicked that price not what expected.

A friend said this to me... "BE WARNED Having a ticket does not mean you will get in to the filming. I had tickets late last year but was turned away as the studio was full they said. I was well ****** off as I had just driven over 200 miles and been up all night. The studio is in the middle of noware so make sure you get there a couple of hours early as I would hate anyone else to spend the amount of time and money getting there as I did only to be let down. They give out more tickets then there actully is space due to them expecting people not to turn up." Anything in this?

In TA days, I carried around an SA80 over the weekends, blank firing and live firing. During Hendon training had a day out at an undisclosed venue and fired one live round on a target range with the MP5 (machine gun carried at Heathrow), and three live rounds out of the Gloc pistol.

Right, dont tell no one (lol-it's a public forum!) I found out some info on the car today somehow It is confirmed as an Altezza RS200 Regd keeper had it since 10/03/2004. A Mr I Khan in E17. But a new V5 has been issued very recently...The reply address from the ebay seller is Roohi Khan. So this is fine. So, the seller most likely has bought the car as a trader recently, bought a Odometer/speedo clock with less miles on (maybe-no evidence to prove this end), and then installed it making the car appear with lower mileage...And then, this is backed up because the car was broken into and all of the paperwork/history was stolen. I think the car is generally legit as an Altezza, but the mileage could be doubted. The first paragraph is fact, the second paragraph is opinion. i am going to edit this above info in 24 hrs.

They look nice and "white" light....in a way of saying. I now wish I had the 6000K's. I have the 5000K, they have a nice glow when driving, but are not as bright as the original OEM parts..But, still look better than the original OEM parts (without going back on my previous post topic "opinion" a month ago.)

Sometimes my beemer mode comes back when I see beemers in the fast lane (dubbed BMW lane), and I hassle them to move out of the way. They dont like it. The Tezz 200 is a much sharper, crisper drive than any bm I have tried and the "turn in" feels more prescise and responsive etc. The Tezz/IS200 is the "Ultimate Driving Machine" anyday

66.27 miles will take 1hr 7 mins to cover? one hour and seven minutes!!! Thats not right is it? :P

I agree on hat ratio. In my street alone, 3 beemers, only my one Tezz, no other Lexuss on the street, or local next few streets come to think of it, but there are other beemers, on the next streets-too many to conciously count.

Yes, as I stated it looks good age wise as far as I could see.... But. He said there was no history as the car had been broken into, and as of this he could not verify mileage..and I stated myself that from experience, that is the only concerning issue to me. Personally, I would love to find a Lexus/jap breakers yard and buy the uk spec interior as on second looks, I really like it.

I see the therapy and pills have worked, nice colour though! The pills helped, yes. I even threw the car away at a loss cause I was salivating for the Lex (well, Tezz). Was a secure ride (also translates to BORING!). Would havr another in time, but not this side of 30. Do like the E46 shape, but as a driving experience the Lex is totally better. 100%. Are you serious about the colour, liking it? Was a difficult colour to sell on, not being metallic.

i was one once....

Standard age wise, it looks okay. BUT...ooh, look at those red painted horns, arent they great! (couldnt get on compter thingy at work chaps. )

That settles all the different variants then. That site.......And that intro. It has 100% made me want another car all over again....... Last time that happened, I sold the 3 year old beemer at a loss to buy the Lex.

the outcome Shahz?
