  1. considering it is Gordon Brown and not Nick Griffin it will just get lol'd into obscurity within a few days.
  2. only last month i finished my garage which i was over the moon with then i see these garages!
  3. wow, im well impressed with how its turning out nice work
  4. mathew

    Nickelback

    ive got 'gotta be somebody' on constant repeat in the car at the moment
  5. yeah that will be perfect, nice one. pm your paypayl details and il sort out the payment
  6. it was a manual gun. pushing the water out is the flaw with the pointing guns, you can add lime or a plasticiser but youl still have the same problem just not to the same extent. i cant for the lif of me remeber what the cement compound was called (it was 5 years ago i used it) but it was really good stuff. mixed just like mortar but there was no segregation what so ever when forced out of the gun. despite all of what ive said though i agree with jamie, you cant beat a trowel and a jointer when it comes to re/pointing
  7. when sanding the wheels does it matter what motion you do? can you do it in a circular motion or should you stick with back and forth?
  8. thanks for the heads up guys. fingers crossed that matt h has a door and not just a skin
  9. in all my years in construction there has only been one pointing gun that i thought anything of. this came with a special cement compound that you just added water to. there was no blockages or segregation in the gun and the cement could be pointed within 10mins of application. within 30mins it had gone off enough to clean the brickwork down. il have a quick google for it as i cant remember the name but i know it wasnt cheap either.
  10. im hoping so. can that be checked just by taking the wheel off? im trying to get an idea as what to look for when i do it as i have no clue what so ever when it comes to technical stuff
  11. group buy! (will they fit a 1997 na?)
  12. sorry for the slight hi jack here, didnt really wanna start a new thread, but i also have a noise when i brake. completely different to this one. as soon as i engage the brake pedal theres a loud 'click' for a split second. sounds like its only coming from the front brakes. ny suggestions/ideas what it could be?
  13. when you say door do you mean the full thing including door card, glass etc? either way il be interested in that matt
  14. been around a few body shops to get quotes for the repairs to my passenger door and not really liking the idea of filling and spraying it, would much prefer a new door skin. a few of them are gona get back to me with quotes for it all but how much do door skins go for? and what would seem a fair price to supply, fit and spray a doorskin?
  15. all credit to the guy he done the right thing, but this place is riddled with cctv so there was no getting away with it which ever option he chose:eyebrows: he was a fellow welsh man as well, if he was english that would have been a whole different story!
  16. Each day i get a wake up call from reception on the dot at 5.00pm. Today they decided to call me a few hours early, not to wake me up but to inform me that my car has been the victim of one of SAGA's elite. Not good. Head downstairs and am greeted by a pleasently mild mannered coffin dodger who tells me he's just reversed into my car. The way i had parked the car i assumed he had reversed into my bumper, but no, he had reversed into the passenger side of my car mangling the passenger door. Weve exchanged details and all that jazz and he wants me to get some quotes. I cant get to wound up as i know (hope) it can get sorted but its just extra hassle and time for me which at the moment is scarce as it is. Over and out.
  17. im glad you added a pic and circled the problem areas as i was really struggling trying to think where the speedo, petrol guage and the gear selector were.
  18. what on earth were toyota thinking when they came up with that pattern?!
  19. if i dislike a person because of their religion does that make me racist? if i dislike a person because of the football team they support does that make me racist?
  20. hi matt, good name, nice celicas and good choice of car for the new purchase.
  21. how is he racist? for having an opinion on religion and religious people? last time i checked religion was a choice.
  22. pretty much as the title says folks. its time to get my scruffy wheels sorted. also how long would the process usually take?
