  1. "there's no need to piss in me petrol tank officer!" m.
  2. Any good caption writers out there? heh
  3. used to have a really long list stuff like - what do you call a chav in a filing cabinet? - sorted etc etc m.
  4. Its basically a Micra. Same chassis etc just a different body and the tiny turbo but handles like a Micra (old bubble shaped one) That said mate of my dad has one of the first bubble Micra's and it's now been round the clock twice so not that bad. m.
  5. I'm not sure they do play with them anymore. Main mod i can think of is uprated batteries to cope with all the lights. Ford Specialist Vehicles did used to tweak the motorway cars though. I know South Yorkshire's finest used to run Sierra's with the Coworth powerplant back in the day. They also uprated suspension to allow them to get over the speed bumps better and had sump guards on to aid pursuits but i'm not convinced they still bother. Most pursuit cars are BMW or Merc now and i don't know if they offer the same service. 5t.
  6. I'm sure i saw somewhere that the Dodge Daytona at No.16 is actually listed in the film as a Dodge Superbird, a car that doesn't exist. Geek moment sorry. m.
  7. Might explain the dodgy reliability then. Motor is well tuneable though and largely reliable (assuming it is in a 200sx and not a GTI-R by the look of it) m.
  8. Same motor as 200sx isn't it? What do you want to do with it? Go drifiting or just go racing? m.
  9. Some people have filled it in a bit daft for example only one person has cancelled a policy but 4 have had problems cancelling a policy which seems strange! Hope the answers help.
  10. She is also claiming it was a racial thing. Looking at ther she seems a right chavvy scrag end and the officer was doing his job by punching her in the arm to make her let go. The way it is going in the press you'd think he put her teeth in a bag. Utter scummy tart that got what she deserved and is now going (probably) to make some money off it that she can just fritter away while a officer doing his job will no doubt get a P45 Sorry love but acting like a James Blunt, sober/drunk/male/female/black/yellow/pink etc is still acting like a James Blunt and you deserve a slap. m.
  11. "Made you look, made you stare!"
  12. Lots of websites do this actually. Barry Boys for example demands Birds Custard for anyone claiming to own something exotic like a Ferrari or something. m.
  13. I said other. Really needs to be played by ear. Anyone who comes across flirty etc and seems up for an innocent laugh yeah but automatically doing it? Definately not. m.
  14. Check and double check you've got everything ready. Proper business plan, full costings and why it is a goer (lack of competition etc) and you should be fine. good luck. m.
  15. Good on you chap! Well done, sure you'll manage it.
  16. Public Relations, PR things people, sweetie darling! If only it was that glam... m.
  17. Funny inside. does look hearse like, especially in black. Perhaps that's why my Goth friends have got one with private Gothic reg plate on it too. Looks smart actually. m.
  18. Ah! the year ncb was what confused me in the first place. Sky are good actually, well, ensign the people they insure you with are good i'll say that. As for 21 it might get easier but not always cheaper. I thought the same, then i was all like ooooh 25 soon and cheaper insurance. Did it happen? Did it ****! NA you might find a bit slow in comparison to what you've had before, particularly if you had a PPP WRX so TT might be the way forward. If it is just for the aerotop though and not the performance then go right ahead! m.
  19. Fair enough, i'd like your wages then please! How come you don't have any ncb though? m.
  20. best stick with an NA if you have to have one but you don't sound like someone with a lot of driving experience. check the search for thr number of accidents lately a supra will certainly have a bite of you if you aren't sure what you are doing. Might be better waiting until you have your year no claims and changing then. How long left to run and what are you driving now? m.
  21. Me at motoring mecca the mrs when we were at Whitby Goth Festival
  22. I'm reading Shogun by James Clavell at the moment, it's the dogs! m.
  23. Not convinced by the environmental peeps there but nice job. For a bike the exhaust has to have a british kite mark to be legal and under 100db. Cars never had the kite mark rule because getting under them to find it is an issue and pc plod doesn't carry a noise meter! Environment bloke up here told me (while i was having my free emissions check) that environmental officers were to be issued with noise meters and be accompanied by ploice after lots of complaints about loud exhausts (there is a circuit all the chavs do each weekend and they aren't as considerate as you). Anything over the limit and deemed a menace would get a rectification order! Hope you get it sorted with them ok though. m.
