Welcome to the club man.... Sod the turbos - an N/A looks just the same as a TT anyway - luxuriate in the knowledge that your fuel consumption will save you lots, but just as many heads will turn... But yeah, stick a big wah sod-off SS exhaust on it, then the only person that'll know (or care) is you! Unless you spill the beans of course...

Clearly you don't have the attention from plod that I appear to attract here in W London...

Are any of you as pee'd off as I am about the fact that a £600 304 stainless exhaust comes with a crappy mild steel baffle that won't last half the life of the exhaust itself? I've been seriously annoyed about this ever since I had my NUR-Spec R fitted 18 months ago, but have solved the problem with the help of a local fabricator who did a great job in replicating the mild steel baffle with one made of 304 SS. If any members would be interested in replacing their mild steel baffle with a stainless, please contact me. If there is interest, I'll get a price including delivery. As a guideline, I'm sure the cost will come in at well less than a ton. Cheers all.

Saw you coming off the roundabout heading north at Cross Street in Uxbridge. Black UK spec... Non-member maybe? this vehicle's been spotted before in Hayes but no response.

But the git really did rip me if you're interested...

HaHa So am I dude - and I'm stoned

:DThe following is a true and proveable account: I had all sorts of problems with Nick Sutton in late 2005 when he brought my car in from Japan. Description said "mint condition" but one back quarter panel had bubbling paint and needed to be resprayed. He said he would foot the bill and have this sorted but never did, despite many efforts to get this sorted. When the car was converted from kph to mph, I received no certificate of such from the people who did the conversion, who were commissioned by Mr Sutton. Despite several requests that I were supplied the required certificate, I still haven't received one. I was driven to threaten him with legal action in the Small Claims Court. He didn't bother to reply to my correspondence. Eventually I just gave up, because I simply couldn't be bothered anymore. The above is a short list of the problems encountered. I have emails, copies of letters etc. etc. to prove my claims, so I have no problem in making them public. My advice to other members, given my experience, would be that it may be prudent to avoid this gentleman.

Just doing that now, but the stall was a bit off the track so may have been eclipsed amongst the car pics! Thanks for your help bud.

Thanks Jim... bloody good memory Won't quite work with my Supe though. Cheers for the offer. Top bloke.

Hi Jim, I'm only guessing mate, but they're about 150mm x 40mm give or take. Problem for me is that all of my vinyls are deliberately a charcoal silver-grey to blend with the paintwork rather than leap out. The ones I bought at JAE were, purely coincidentally, exactly the right colour "off the shelf". Hence my need to find the suppliers! Your offer is much appreciated mate. What size and colour are yours?

Guys, I bought some vinyls (yes, I'm sorry, I do have them on the car!) at a stall at JAE 09, fitted them last weekend and cocked one up. I now have a great Tein vinyl on one side of the car, but not the other. For the life of me I can't remember the name of the people I bought them off. Can anybody help in giving me their name and/or web address please? Their stall had a yellow canopy I seem to remember, they sold nothing but vinyls pretty much, and they were set up towards the back side of the Hexagon cafe/greasy spoon thing. Cheers all - and ta v much Ramondo for the veg. curry - I owe you a plastic container!

Saw you pulling out of the car park at the back of Tesco in Uxbridge at 3-ish this afternoon. Just saw you in time to give you a wave as I went past...

I'm paid up - will be there Sat & Sun, quagmires permitting...

Hi Max, Sorry to be so late in replying. I'm only in Uxbridge, so just five or six miles from you. No problem if you want to meet up - maybe we could have a beer together. Just so's you have my number, I'm on 07885 378282. See ya soon mate.

We stopped at traffic lights and you asked me about the size of my wheels / tyres...
