This is going to get very serious cos the police will be throwing the book for driving without insurance. That's the car cruncher!

What did you hit to smack up the front and how did you get the rear damaged?

Don't forget to top her life insurance before the next attempt. Also get the mods to erase this thread as LAPD CSI will have this as evidence that it was premeditated.

RIP-OFF UK. It is the national pastime. It's everything else! Example is say a strut brace. Has anybody actually sat down and worked how much it costs to make one. Well certainly not £250 I was asked for. I worked it out as £40. There are more complex electronic components in a £25 DVD player than a £250 boost controller. People will charge as much as they can get away with and not what it's worth. And as long as their are mugs who'll pay it then long may it continue.

You can't really blame the workmen. If you/your bro'-in-law wanted the pot holes filling then you should've paid them. They get paid by the hour and smashing the chunks isn't going to be a 2 minute job. If anything you're best course of action is your neighbour. He hired them. His responsibility.

Cheers everybody. Off to get maxed out tonight. Fortunately I've got tomorrow off to go to the NEC bike show.

... my professional review. I'm now a professional Chartered Engineer and can tack CEng MIMechE on the end of my name. Still being made redundant but that should go a long way to help getting another job. Right who needs an HFO fuel injection system designed for a 17,000 BHP maritime diesel engine?

You must've pissed somebody off big time for them to go to the effort going to your car with a hammer.

Don't knock it. I was of the same thinking but after a test drive I settled for a auto Uk spec and never looked back. You'll need an extra £3K on top of your offer to separate me from mine.

My mate had shaking hand syndrome so all the lads bought him a set of maracas and a tamborine. Turned out it was Parkinsons but he still laughed.

Supermoto is big in Yurp. But over here in the UK we're all into sports bikes and they're not too clever for drifting. You don't need to do 150 mph to have a good time.

Must've been Luftwaffe. Didn't they tell him the war finished ages ago. As previously mentioned the head ache is probably due to whiplash. You strained the neck muscles and get them tensed up. Get your missus to give you a shoulder neck massage. I find this helps alot.

And saw Gary Moore at Wolverhampton Civic Centre. So I can't really say I've seen a bad gig this year.

Saw Rush at the NEC Arena last month. Brilliant laser beam show and Neil Peart's 15 min drum solo was top with loads of gated reverb! . Genesis at Twickenham were excellent. Light show was amazing. Tomorrow back at the NEC to head bang at Heaven n Hell with Dio/Black Sabbath.

Your p1ss must look like Kia Ora!

I thought it was already a classic. Certainly with winter comes shorter darker days and slippery roads. I wouldn't hazard a guess as to how many Supes will be killed before spring 2008. As they become rarer the value will go up. So keep crashing everybody and I'll be in profit.

I reckon she fancied you and was dying to meet the owner of that throbbing Supe. And when you stepped out she wasn't impressed so cooked up a speeding ticket. Take the fine or ask for an ASBO. Kids are murdering eachother for them.

It's the sulphur in the gunpowder combining with water in the air to form sulphuric acid that eats into the paint. It'll probably eat into the cover.

Instead why don't you get her number, give her a call and take her out to dinner.

Look at the bright side. It will weed out the chavvie owners and ensure that only those rich enough to own a Supe will be able to.

If you're stuck with a 125 then I wouldn't be too fussy. You're gonna get creamed by everybody including joggers. A CBR125 is a very good plastic baby sports bike so is the Aprilia RS125. But they get nicked all the time because they're in such high demand. And being so light two people can pick them up. And they drink petrol. The CG125 is an excellent beginners bike. Being plain it's less desirable. It'll do 120 mpg! I know. I had one. By the time you've had this bike for two years, forget the 600 you'll be ready for a full blown Fireblade. I've got a 600 Hornet and got bored of it in 5 months. Today I've been test riding 1050 Triumph Speed Triple. Nice.

It'll do 0 mph. It's got no pedals!

I'm sure he does. But let's not kid ourselves that its state of the art. The Mk4 is a 14 year old design. It will be a classic soon.

Despite our unbiased opinion, I don't think the TG team are too impressed with Supes. I was in the studio audience a few years ago and got talking to the Hamster during a filming break. He recognised the Glos accent being a Local Person. When the question he's never asked 1000 times was asked to keep the conversation going 'What car do you drive?' to which I replied 'A Supra!', he replied 'Oh one of those.' I don't think he was too impressed. And why should he with his job.

Since when was trick or treat a British tradition? It's American and came over here along with Starsky and Hutch and Macdonalds!! I don't remember banging on peoples doors demanding money or sweets. Do that when I was a lad and you'd either get walloped on the head or fed to local paedophile. Why don't we start celebrating Thankgiving Day.
