Yeah even the base models come with some nice kit, mine was an SE I think and had aircon, cruise control and Bluetooth. I'd imagine now there's some real good buys to be had.

I'd recommend anyone a 1.9tdi vag estate, my passat was bomb proof, other then maintenence and things I wanted to do that car cost me £18 over 3 years for a new seat belt warning light, and that only failed where someone had refitted a dash trim poorly after removing a bluetooth setup. Its still on the road too at 250k miles.

Dick move

I've still got the ashton frame and probably all the bits to build something, I like the idea of getting back into it, just not really got the time to give it. I bought a Leeson a few years ago, then sold it on once I'd wasted money on it Have you?

What an achievement, can't believe anything you could create could be in anyway successful at anything. I'm impressed but not at the time time because its you. Yeah business is dead on its arse at the minute, I'm lucky enough to run a business that operates on cash in hand though rather then 30 day accounts, so there's nobody knocking on the door for monies. Just gotta ride it out I guess. How's big rona affecting you guys? Hows Korea treating you? I had to go into Nottingham the other evening and drove the one way round the corner house, instantly back to midnight notts night rides and treat kebab. Not that its any of your business, dickhead.

Ohhmeergeeerd he replied with a gif, showed me. Post regularly or don't post at all, TF isn't a youth hostel you piece of shit. Hows things anyway? Baby revolver doing alright?

Get out, we don't need you here

I only quickly glanced and got dead excited at twin turbskis, dissapointed when saw they were lights.

Built this, tested my noggin quite alot getting it to work properly but finally getting constant results! Got a problem with the lighting circuit but that's a walk in the park compared

Your MR2 speaks for itself dude, slap some contact info on there and start pushing it in the right areas.

Nothing mr Taxman. Squeaky clean here...

I can't remember whos dyno it was, might have been MiniSports, but about 11 years ago anything that went on there came out at 98bhp 1300 multipoints with the JCW kit on at 98bhp, followed by a 998 with a stage one 1 kit and 12g940 head - 98bhp

Nice one dude, pleased for you!

Wine weight

Ironically I've lost nearly 2 stone since this all kicked off, lack of being on the road and being able to get fast food has been a real winner

Also see - No education, but go look at Lemurs from the 15th onwards. Nice one facebook petitions, you're great.

In all seriousness though I think the most frustrating thing from our (the UK) point of view is we were a couple of weeks behind other countries, we could've followed by example pretty nicely and ridden this out possibly alot quicker and alot more controlled. As it is this half arsed "lockdown" was been put in place, the damage to health, industry and the economy is done, possibly more damage then if we just shut down totally and now we're trying to come out the other side when on paper, we arent in that great of a position. The most infuriating thing is theres no standard set so most places are just setting up their own rules, to try an get timber from my local merchant is like trying to get into fort Knox, my paint supplier is 1 person in store at a time but that's about it. Nobody really knows what's right or wrong, but it's alright now though because Boris has said your allowed out for a shag. Our government just dont seem to be addressing the key points on how to begin to open your business/shop back up, seems like a plastic screen and a bottle of sanitizer by the door is the token gesture needed. It'll be interesting to see what happens to the infection numbers in a week or so time after the countries recent protests and mass gatherings, if nothing really changes number wise I can see alot of people just going back to as normal as possible.

Yeah but boris got it wrong and new Zealand flattened the curve an DEY TUK R JEEEERBS

An I was happy with assetto corsa ultimate for £8

A few have probably seen it on instagram, but this is the latest project for me.. Converting A 1950s Coke chest cooler into a loveseat. These were originally filled with refrigeration gear in the lower half and a stainless tub in the top half to keep water cool in the stainless tub and keep your drinks cold, quickly superseded by Coke for refrigerater air units and self vending machines. Some of these were taken back by Coca Cola and converted into seats for promotion and to give out to bigger retailers. Pretty excited to get further with this one and get it off to uoholstry/blasting.

Nice one dude, it's certainly a lifeline at the minute.

If nothing else has been achieved this whole lockdown period, atleast I can be proud that on Assetto Corsa I can lap the 'Ring in 5.42 in the 2004 F1 Ferrari Are you proud yet, Dad?

I fancied some more bite on the back end as I'd like to try and use the orange as abit of a trials/street rig, aswell as its trail duties, so I ordered and fitted a set of UberBike semi metallic pads on the rear and it's insane Grabs and holds so hard, has quite a nice spot of modulation before the grab which is nice. For normal trail duty it would be totally too much, but for a chuck around it's great fun!

Other then the SLX 4pots nothings changed for a few years, it does everything I want, how I want to so I'm more then happy with it! I'd like slightly wider rims for a more square tyre, but it's not urgent. Full service today and it's back to it's best!

A mate of mine runs a small LBS and hes faced the same situation as you guys Dunc, totally just out of bikes which is a strange situation really.. Sorry to hear your situation too man with the visa etc, sucks that its put pay to that but hopefully long term it'll all come good!
