  1. Grab a tiptronic and you get the best of both worlds
  2. So as it is still on original suspension I guess the problems mentioned in the past MOT still exist? Can we also assume as it's hardly moved (58 miles or kms) since the mileage was recorded at the last MOT in 2010 that these tyres are still on the car? Just a quick check on https://www.check-mot.service.gov.uk with reg K113SGC says; Test Date: 9 July 2010 - 8 July 2011 167,525 miles Nearside Rear Tyre worn close to the legal limit (4.1.E.1)Offside Rear Tyre worn close to the legal limit (4.1.E.1) Test Date: 10 June 2009 - 9 June 2010 Front Body has slight displacement of the body relative to the chassis (6.1.B.1a) Explanation here - http://www.ukmot.com/manual/6.1/Vehicle-Structure-Body-and-General-Items Test Date: 22 January 2008 - 21 January 2009 Advisory notice item(s) Nearside Front Shock absorber has a slightly reduced damping effect (2.7.5) Offside Front Shock absorber has a slightly reduced damping effect (2.7.5) Nearside Rear Shock absorber has a slightly reduced damping effect (2.7.5) Offside Shock absorber has a slightly reduced damping effect (2.7.5) Nearside Front Shock absorber has a light misting of oil (2.7.3) Offside Front Shock absorber has a light misting of oil (2.7.3) Nearside Rear Shock absorber has a light misting of oil (2.7.3) Offside Rear Shock absorber has a light misting of oil (2.7.3) Front bumper insecure
  3. So the car is on 167583 KM's? When was the last MOT? Has it been left in storage or left standing for long? Any accident damage? When were the tyres last changed? When was it resprayed? What suspension has been fitted (sorry if listed, can't see it) and when was this changed?
  4. As you're Yorkshire based Chris Wilson is closer if you are looking for someone to take very good care of your car. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php?54-Chris-Wilson
  5. No problem, just seen your not a paid up member so you won't be able to use the PM system.
  6. Why not ask the owner? http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/member.php?18556-monsween
  7. About 650 give or take a few.
  8. Try Jacks in the US, I doubt you will have any luck over here http://www.jackstransmissions.com/collections/v160-transmission-parts

    Definitely need someone like that, just not her!

    If she managed to make PM I think she would be worse than MT. Wasn't it her and Patricia Hewitt that argued the age of consent should be lowered from 16 to 14 and called for a dramatic reduction in statutory punishments for "consensual" sex with girls as young as 12? Then were found to have links to a paedophile group in 1970s!

    She has more ball than the rest of them, I can't help but see TM as another MT?
  12. Far from great results to be honest. If someone is interested in buying the car why not just take it to a garage and pay to get the compression & leak down done professionally rather than risk damaging any potential sale doing it yourself with a cheap gauge that is not 100% accurate? That is akin to shooting yourself in the foot IMO.
  13. Luke (mentioned today) or Amy (mentioned by Alex aka Drift Bear) are the ones that I have seen mentioned favourably on here, might be worth trying one of them in you can.
  14. Who did you deal with at Sky as there appear to be different opinions on the service they provide to us as a Club depending on who you deal with.

    If we are playing hangman shouldn't it be F_ _ _?
  16. You need to pay your club dues, it mentions that in the T&C you agreed to when you signed up
  17. I think Parry means using a reducer pipe like this - https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/p/samco-xtreme-straight-reducer-76mm-60mm-xsr76-60
  18. All jokes aside, that does seem to be the best way to fix them. Your latest incarnation is very tasty
