oooooo bitchy has something upset you Blue? I'm not feeling much love between you two lately :|

I know you may not like what each other has done with their cars thats perfectly acceptable but theres no need to insult people over it

Blue406 for a youngish 406 driver (by comparisions to some of the old and bald on here) you seem to have a very old man narrow mindedness to what everyone does with their cars on here...I'm not trying to get in to a handbags match here so don't take it the wrong way its just an obvservation!!!

I like what you have done with your car it looks very smart and subtle but I also like geordieboy's! its horses for courses and all that... but no need to insult each other about it its ruuuude :shock:

This isn't the barry boys website so please try and keep it nice and polite... your criticisms should be constructive and not an attack on one's pride and joy as it were!

Its much better since I got the Crankshaft Pulley replaced with a new 1.
Managed 110mph and nowt happened except for ABS light come on at 105.



I just ignore Blue's and anyone else's bitchy comments, I've always said its upto the owner to do what they want with a car.
Aslong as they like it, who are we to complain. I only dont like my exhaust, everything else is ok.

Me and Neildavies had a local meet last night, we even spent a bit of time hanging around in Tesco's carpark 8) (Only long enough to load his new tumble dryer into the back of my car :cheesy: ).

Anyone else wanna come to our next meet?



Seriously though - good plan, but they have to be local meets to make them worthwhile. I usually travel up to about 40 miles for club meets, any more is just silly :? Anyone else in South Wales?

Whats the next meet.... fridge freezer in your boot with sofa on the roof ? :D

I'd come to south wales..... how far south we talking???

I think we should make one for summer, a big meet! That everyone has the time to be able to plan for and attend, what you think ?

We could get discount rates at a travel lodge or similar, or for the hardcores we could camp! ! We could even go as far as a circuit or strip event... what you think????

Yep, I'd be up for a <50m meet.

Cheers to Dai again for providing his van size boot to get me a tumble dryer. Later in the same night, me and Deb went to Tesco and got back to find 4 young (god I feel old) lads in a car parked up next to me. I got back in the car and said "what are they up to then" and Deb said "Exactly yhe same as you used to do 10 years ago". Fair point!
