  1. Just put a new carpet down...and the missus came home to find me servicing the bike on the carpet (might have spilt something...). So they were a compromise haha as the weather was bad.
  2. Been a lonnnng time since I've posted on here! A before & after mucky shot And my little toy bike.
  3. Haha I knew immediately after I pressed post that someone would point that out. Home insurance pay out for things stolen away from the home like that?
  4. Had a quick search, but couldn't find anything on here. Does anyone have or can recommend a good insurance provider? E.g...one who will not try wriggle out of everything etc, which does good cover. As not really looking forward to the day when I come out of work and my bike is not there... Cheers
  5. Thanks both. Yeah new chain and rear-mech I'm guessing too?
  6. Just a quick question that I can't seem to find a solid answer on. Currently have an 8spd cassette on my Hope Hub...Will I be able to do a direct swap for a 10spd cassette without having to make any modifications or get a new hub etc...? Cheers
  7. I may get slated for this....but.... Think I may possibly be going for an R26 F1....Got a few good prices. If not, the trophy, simply because i only want to have the car for around a year...maybe abit more, and i know they will hold the majority of the money. (but i've always had a soft-spot for the megane)
  8. After reading all of that...it's just made me want to get the bus! After some helpful advice, i feel i should give more of a detailed in-sight into what i actually need/want from a car.... -I live about 2 miles away from my work....so long commutes are not an issue -As i've said, I dont particularly want and old car, simply due to the fact they require more maintenance & time spent on them (which i do not have alot of)...although an Intergrale would do nicely -I dont want a car to show off like a poser in,thats not me (so that rules the shitty boxsters out), I just want a new/clean looking/smart car...but that has some reasonable performance to go with it. -Basically, I just want it for them times when im driving between places and can make them abit more fun, but also if i want to go out for a drive, ive got something that i know is not going to be a slouch/bore! -The idea of a M3/porka/bugatti veyron is stupid, because sod paying the running costs/insurance for them at age of 20. i've decided to cap my spending at £10,000 now..maybe £11,000 if its really worth it. always had a soft spot for clio trophy's though.....and i respect cars such as the Honda DC5...but without meaning to sound racist...(where i live, I would look like a take-away delivery man) Edit: now looking at Type R....
  9. Yep, 20 as said.. Job..I have 2...and semi-pro rugby player..so paid for that too.. In answer to the insurance question... An R32/new S3...would cost me £1218 per year...and i havnt dared even ask for something such as a subaru...just because i thought group 20 would be just a rediculous amount! I think i'm going to have to totally re-look at everything now. I want to stay away from the old looking cars though, because they really just dont do it for me. I'm sure the performance would, but looks wise..i'm left feeling a little flaccid!
  10. I'd go straight for the EVO..everyday...BUT..insurance won't touch me on any of those
  11. I meant new shape, sorry. Like 07-8 plate etc...
  12. I live near Yorkshire dales and on the moors....so B road heaven! want something thats going to be able to handle every corner as best as something can, but also have the straight line speed.
  13. well dont i feel the tit now.... i may start considering some other options if anybody has any?
  14. Please..enlighten me... The thing is...I dont want anything OLD...even if it does have 400 italian stallions under the bonnet
  15. To cut a long story short.... Buying a new car within 3 weeks. Options so far: NEW VW R32 (DSG)MEGANE R26 F1CLIO TROPHYFOCUS ST I have been torn between these 4 cars for MONTHS! read hundreds of reviews...and still cannot decide. I am swaying towards the R32 more than the others. I have £16k to play with....Would just like to know if anybody has one, or knows of...and general opinions (pro's and cons). cheers!
  16. The just the crazy world we live in...
  17. I thought my dad was beating up my mum next door
  18. Talking to 5 different people within yorkshire, and all out houses just shook like an earthquake at the same time! Anybody else?
  19. I was 16...she was 30...think it was fair to say that i was shitting myself

    Lottery

    I once put the lottery on for the saturday, only to discover that the numbers i had just picked, had come out the day before on wednesday nights draw i felt sick
  21. I got it summer 2006.... was in and out of hospital for long periods until just after xmas. i then cudnt do any exercise until this summer. Then i got it again and was in hospital this september, and i'm still feeling it. Makes me just suddenly shattered and fall asleep within 5 minutes at random times, or just like death. makes me get right ill with other stuff too
  22. isn't lewis hamilton on the show tonight? dont shoot me if i'm wrong

    Fake I.d?

    how have you messed it up? the number just peels off. and yeh, that is a problem when u get pulled. but its just a quick swipe off with the finger when you hand it over. not hard.

    Fake I.d?

    well it never failed. ye, if you;re looking for it, of course it would. a way of getting around it is having it behind a plastic window in your wallet and smear pritt-stick on the iniside and rub, making the window appear dirty.cloudy. therefore not so noticeable when they look at it.
