poor my a**e all the brits are loaded over there from what ive seen. you have to be just to eat out. and you cant believe the price of the toblerones i found in my hotel room minibar last week :o :o :o good thing was i put it all on my brothers room number damn i hope he doesnt read this post

Fluff34567 where in switzerland do you live, my brother lives in basel ( hes a posh git with an rx300se )

would love to but ive just come back from LES DIABLERETS Glacier 3000 is was pretty damn cold up there aswell. great glacier to ski and board on though, theyve got some great jumps and a half pipe. best thing was it was empty with hardly anyone on the slopes all week :D

looking at it from a police point of view, do you know how many times ive had to arrest people who have stood upto these young idiots intent on ruining the lives of local residents. each scenario is similar, after weeks or months of verbal abuse, local vandalism etc they confront the youths and end up giving the young lads a good hiding ( which they in most cases probably deserved ), then the kids go running to their parents and guess who has to go round and sort it all out. unfortunately the law is such that our hands are tide and we all know who ends up in trouble and who gets away scott free AGAIN !!!!! if we so much as think about giving one of these young idiots a slap nowadays we could be looking at the sack and court proceedings, so spare a thought for us weve gotta deal with them everyday of the week when their young and every friday & saturday night when their older. still it keeps me in a job i suppose

colin, what are you supposed to do when the battery is flat and you need to get home then if you cant jump start them ??????

i might have missed it already but are you part xing or just a cash buy. coz you can save thousands using internet car sites. like drivethedeal and newcar suppliers, i bought a golf last year and saved £2700 im sure you couldsave on these prices youve got from the stealers for instance ive just checkeddrive thedeal and the jag2.0 sport met paint park sensors 17" wheels £ 20770 otr. :D

altezza scott, what are your grilles made out of please. i know one of them is carbon fibre but what about the metal one. thanks

Well put Colin, i made that mistake when i sold my ultimately reliable 1994 m reg golf that had only done 55000 miles and bought a brand new 2003 golf 4 motion that was a pile of steaming doggy doo !!

no i havent heard of them but i know the type believe me ive dealt with enoough of them . if their above board and proffesional they will be more than happy to provide all the documentary evidence for you, what they want to do is exactly what the police do. they want to show that the evidence is overwhelming and that you have no other choice than to pay the debt before they need to take legal action against you. it costs thousands for the police to bring court proceedings against someone but if they admit the offence early it costs far less and its easier to deal with. the same applies here. it will take time and money for them to take you to court, in excess of the debt owed probably. so like i said if they want you to pay up then will have to give you the overwhelming proof so you dont have a choice but to pay, until then sit tight

shes trying it on with you. their a pack of liars and i wouldnt trust them as far as i could throw them. take them all the way to court and let them show the proof that you havent paid.

anything to do with the vw/audi badge should be set on fire, but im not one to hold a grudge or anything :D

back to the subject of what car to get next, i voted for the is300 that was until earlier today when i was checking out ebay and saw the nissan skyline 350 gt import, now that looks like an amazing car, its the first time ive ever seen one and i think it looks the muts nuts

peter your a genius thanks very much :D i wish i could remember to use the search

now then don you have got me thinking its typical it falls off at the mearest sight of a stone but when you try to get it off i bet its bloody hard work, its not exactly a smooth area to work on either full of holes it may require some thought before i attempt this project, i mean wire wool will just wreck the chrome and its not gonna be easy without anything abrasive to work with

thanks but ive just bought genuine elbow grease off ebay :winky:

damn, i was hoping for a miracle cure, oh well thanks anyway ill get a tub of elbow grease when i come from my holiday ta for the advice :D

i was hoping it was, coz it looked pretty shiny at a glance, any ideas on best way of de enamalling

HI, whilst washing and cleaning my car today i noticed yet more stone chips to the front of my car this time to the standard lexus grille. Now my question is the grille looks like its black enamel over metal, i can see little shiny bits of metal under the enamel but does anyone know what the metal is. Coz if its stainless steel then i might consider removing the enamel seen as though its coming off anyhow to leave a stainless grille. better still has anyone done it and can tell me how to do it. :duh: i know your gonna say buy a new grille but i want to spend my cash on different mods later in the year and my mod fund is very low.

You'll be back pretty quickly then, see them things every day and a lot of them come in on tow trucks with starting or engine problems ← just to make you feel like you made the right choice

thats a load of bull**** to put it plainly, if it was the case then both my cars are illegal and all the police cars at work. I just wished they all turned off automatically like the lexus ones do to save you having to drive behind some idiot who has left them on

yep 33 psi allround for me on standard 17"s

well its unreal up on top of the moors here in north yorkshire. I played fottball today against the top of the league side and one of my goal kicks hit a gust of wind and didnt even get out of the 18 yard box but overnight i lost my sheep shelter and my greenhouse so spent most of the morning tidying up glass debris. still its nothing compared to recent events in other parts of the globe. on a positive note my 10 yr old eucalyptus tree took it all in its stride once again, just aswell seen as though its only landing area is my roof

i was thinking of buying one myself a month back but when i spoke to the so called EXPERT in the shop he said that I would have to purchase a separate aerial and fit it under the bonnet because my is 200 has a heated front screen and the element prevents the signal getting through ???????? but listeneing to you guys it sounds like a load of rubbish any thoughts by thew way 399 was the best price i found anyone else found any cheaper

be careful with the mer, it is abrasive and can remove your paintwork if you use mer use it only once or twice a year and use meguairs the rest cant go wrong.

I agree bin the turtle wax, either autoglym or even better meguiars nxt. both are excellent products,
