He's still right, you can't air ride a mini..

Ha, not even close dude! I'm not even 100% sure on the idea myself! But I'm dying to give it a try.

Too good

Unfortunately not, I had my eyes on it but it's not to be just yet. It was too nice for me so it'd be a shame to treat it like I do my passat. Plus when I'm sat in one I sit level with the b post so I can't see anything to my right . New project will involve air ride, a fair bit of fabrication, a lot of interior work and a respray. Quite excited about it! I'll get pictures up if I purchase on Saturday.

Going to look at a new project this weekend all being well, looking forward to it a lot! Not crazy about the idea of selling the Passat but needs must..

That's where the fun is thou?

Well your not far off the mark dude, a guys bought my special for £100+post which I thought was pretty fair to say the work that's in it.

When I went to goodwood anew years ago they had a Vulcan display there, incredible machine!

All this weekend I think, monkey trail looks untouched but I assume it'll still be stacked out.

There's an XC meet kicking off Allen, it'll be mega busy dude.

Estate, I've no idea why anyone would ever buy a saloon. Stupidest car style ever.

I am, a local dealers got a stunning Octavia VRS in in race blue, I'm chasing that down!

A guy that used to come into work had a stunning 964 turbo, he had the full car stripped all upholstery restored, engine disassembled and rebuild, any minor paintwork sorted (it was immaculate for its age) and rebuilt poly bushed and on AST coilovers as recommended by our local independent porsche specialists. Suspension alone cost him 5k! God knows what his final bill was. The poor thing lasted 3 months before it hugged a tree on a wet day I've only ever driven 1 Porsche and was MIIIIGHTY impressed. It was a series 2 GT3 and I only ran to the shops and back in it, it belonged to my old boss. He took me out in it a few times in anger and it was a frighteningly fast car, just seemed so planted and abit point and shoot, great fun. It's my dream to one day own a completely standard 69-71 C series 911, best shape they ever produced and seemed to have all the bugs ironed out by then, fantastic looking cars.

Is it just me that thinks that golf looks awful?

Thoroughly enjoyed that guys and Soph. Already looking foward to the next! Was a good ride with good company. Enjoy F.O.D guys and report back on that one. It's somewhere on the list of todo..

Sorted, cheers lads. See you shortly Luke!

Anyone got his number? Pm please..

Is marquis drive where we met last time? If so that suits me. I think we'll be alright for daylight but was just curious if others were taking.

Nice one, I'm really keen to get to Afan, I've only heard good things about there.

Bikes mini serviced, I've got a get out of work early card, roof rails on car. I should be at birches around 5-5.15 depending on traffic around Derby, I'll text you Ed if I'm struggling. Anyone bothering with lights? I've only got some lights for being seen, not to see. I think we should have a good few hours of light thou. How was Afan Luke?

Epiphones up for sale, not really wanting to sell but I'm tripping over it and keep playing my tele so it may as well go to a new home!

Pahahaha! Even better the new one is a 420x30.9 which suits me better!

Posted and on its way. I was talking to a mate last night at a club ride, he owns 2 reverbs and alternately returns them for warranty every so often! He has 2 working posts at the minute so has lent me one till mine gets back, on the promise mine enters the pot when it's back from warranty. Not a bad idea if I do say so...

I'd bring Jenny but she works till 7 plus she's bottled it abit since she went over the bars in march. Luke, birches valley is quite easy to find. I'll let Ed explain but it is pretty easy.

I went to a bodyshop today and was looking around one of the jobs they've got in at the minute, this van... You can watch someone airbrushing this here... http://youtu.be/zU83-DRNzH0 Now, this hasn't made me angry, more annoyed. It's been passed hands 2-3 times since that was done and the new bloke owns some dog kennel so wants a van. The bodyshop are doing small dings around the van, as well as painting over the front end! What a waste! Why would you buy that to have it painted? Someone spent hours airbrushing for it to be wasted.
