  1. thanks for the explanation - just to see if I understand this right - in reality the number would be much less than the quoted torque @ the wheels? - - - Updated - - - The gas pedal is a good modulator

    It seems like the Labour Party and hence their voters are with Cameron on the EU in campaign......a one off but sadly a once in a lifetime opportunity to fight to restore democracy within the UK.

    Labour certainly ignored ALL of your concerns during their term in Govt. One example - The number of sham colleges that were setup to allow illegals to come in via student visas was shocking. Does anyone know how much is spent on translation services within public services, such as the NHS, Border Control, Justice dept, etc?

  5. Agree - the spec looks good and if its running well then i wouldn't mess about unless your needs have changed. Once i got mine running the way i wanted i turned my attention to modernizing the interior including ICE & Tech.

    Don't get me started on junior doctors - obviously people have little idea of how they used to train say 30 years ago vs now. They have it much easier and like the tube drivers, bus drivers, fire fighters, teachers etc they have the audacity to hold the country at random for their greed. And we don't have a NHS its the international HS - open to abuse by "patients", managers, contractors - it's inefficient and ride for corruption at multiple levels. Sad to see that a majority seem to have an attitude that the country owes them something and are quite prepared to suck the country dry. At the end of the day it isn't sustainable, isn't moral and major reforms are needed overall - the 5 year govt term is a handicap and doesn't allow major reforms that are desperately needed to help evolve the country with changing times to be competitive at a global level. Back on topic - I sincerely hope we pull out of the EU and take control of our own affairs.

    You missed my point - the jobs that immigrants are doing are beneath the non-immigrants - the pay of these jobs has always been min wage. your are not going to get 15ph for flippin burgers. Again - you missed the point - when I look at the NHS even at the lower level - it is run by Brit Asians & immigrants. Obviously not when you at it from your lens - the alternative is to be a parasite on the nation - plenty of those around - worse still - they have an attitude.....

    you're not going to offer entry level jobs to students who can't communicate properly - both verbally or written. Employers have a reputation to upkeep. Some people still seem to have this misconstrued perception that they have the right to services & jobs because of what their ancestors did - the question is what is it that THEY as an individual have to offer - it's very clear that young brits are not capable of competing anymore and are being left behind. I'm glad we don't have a system of favouritism like in Saudi where it is mandatory to employ locals in senior positions regardless of their capabilities. Here it is a level playing field - if you are good you get the job - if not then bugger off.

    They are low paid jobs for a reason - unskilled labour - . If Brits choose not to go for these jobs then what exactly is it that they are doing with their time & how are they surviving? Goes back to the point I made earlier - we need a reality check and to adjust our expectations. Nurses & Teachers & Doctors don't get paid min wage - again - don't see a lot of White brits queuing up for these jobs either. They are mainly Brit Asians or immigrants that fill these roles too? You want to get paid then skill up and have something worth offering to justify that high wage - the days of handouts are numbered. Very rich to blame the immigrants (legal law abiding and tax paying) for all OUR self created problems.

    Disagree with your comment about over supply of labour - that isn't true for the sectors that I highlighted above - there is a shortage of labour due to the state funded silver spoon (labour govt) mentally & the legal immigrants are plugging that hole for us to enjoy our kushti lifestyle.

    Why is it that white Brits choose to sit at home and be on the dole rather than work at McDonald's today? If McDonald's started paying 15ph for flipping burgers then the cost would be passed over to the consumer - guess who loses out in the end... If we are to compete at a global stage then we need to be realistic about our expectations some Brits believe that they have a right to a state funded silver spoon for simply existing.....

    Cant disagree with him here: Meanwhile, the failure of European leaders to deal with the migrant crisis is seen as "definitive proof that the European Union is a tired, wrinkled old grandmother who has allowed herself to be groped and raped by lustful and predatory men," he says.

    Lets look at THEM? Suppose we shut the doors on legal law-abiding tax paying immigrants. Who will be doing the jobs that they do? Lets look at low level jobs (e.g: supermarket, coffee shops, retail) OR in the NHS (cleaners, admin, nurses, etc) OR in the council (Rubbish collectors, etc) OR in the Building Trade - where you struggle to find a white brit today (London inc Greater London) - I don't for one minute believe that by expelling law abiding immigrants there will be a sea of white brits moving in to take those positions. We have lived a comfortable life due to the "immigrants" doing the jobs that are not good enough for us. Back to your point about welfare - the system cannot sustain supporting people who DO NOT pay into the system (exc disabled) regardless of whether they are immigrants or not - Time for major overhaul in all our institutions starting with a fee based NHS.
  14. and then some have the audacity to pass the blame to immigrants on a serious note - have you tries websites like rated people, 70-80 is what I would deem reasonable for a specialist.
  15. Got it - so no such rules in the UK? Thereby the assumption being that there isn't a safety risk of running an older tyre on a car. That being the case why not sell the older tyre at the same price?
  16. In that case what's with the 5/6 year MOT rule stated above - or is that not the case?
  17. Like the OP said - if they are not safe then I am surprised that they are allowed to sell them to the public
  18. The current owner Schermerhorn resprayed the car Grey after buying what he admits was a total shed of a car - (according to this thread) In Post 1 (aug 2014) on this thread the car was being sold by ABU SULAYMAN - we can see that it is already resprayed its current colour > grey. How can the previous owner be Abu Sulayman - something doesn't add up. Not sure about others but when I buy a used car I dont just look at the car....I look at who is selling it too.
  19. 9K for a Cat C for a car that looks in average condition at best PLUS - with a coloured history of the car due to the unscrupulous previous owner - who knows what was done to it in the past and how well has the current dealer restored it. from the current owners thread. and if it is to be believed that he bought it for 6K - then i'd say that Mr Abu Shaytan definitely stung him by selling him a lemon.
  20. but you are quite prepared to insult unsuspecting others with a ridiculous ask of 9K..... Having read the thread it is wholly appropriate for people to view the car with an eye of suspicion due to its coloured non-disclosed past. Normally at this point I would say good luck with the sale - I just hope whoever buys the car knows what they are doing and doesn't get stung. Oh & welcome to the club.

    Nissan engineers taking a leaf out of Porsche in terms of laziness.....
  22. Ahh ok - so will be a NA-T when sold. Best of luck with the sale - id recommend fixing the electrical gremlins and all small bits and pieces so that you can maximize your asking price
  23. for a NA - these cars have appreciated in value..... Does that mean this will be sold as a NA?
