    first trackday. brake fluid & a few other questions

    Not sure on the tyre pressures exactly but bare in mind that the pressure will increase as the temperature of the tyre rises. I'd always recommend refreshing the fluid... Especially if its not been done since new.

    £25 for fluid. ~£50 lines and say £50 for doing the job. It's not a big/difficult job though by any means

    197: Insurance renewal time - couple of questions

    I went with Greenlight... mainly for trackday cover but they are extremely helpful and reasonably priced so worth giving them a call.

    I've got ramps/lathe at work. If someone gives me more of an idea of the job I'll have a look and see if I can get a few produced.

    Track tyres wet and dry

    For dry consider Yokohama A048 or R888's If you really need a set of "wets" a lot of people rate the toyo R1-R In my experience the AD08's are fine for both unless you're looking to gain an extra few tenths

    Working/living in the UK?

    Hi The work situation isn't as bad as the media would have you believe in my experience, at least not in professional job areas... Apprenticeships are big growth area for post 19 students too. The tax system isn't great but it's not prohibitive... There is talk of abolishing the "10p" tax...

    Anyone know this r27 f1?

    Thanks again Toby. I think I'll try and wangle a 12month warranty on the back of the info you posted. Gam, they are a Suzuki specialist and their level of knowledge on the car didn't fill me with confidence. Also, there is an excellent independent specialist close to where I live.

    Anyone know this r27 f1?

    Thanks for the welcomes Cheers for the information Toby. I am pretty pleased with the deal I managed to negotiate. they are completing a fairly extensive list of minor niggles and discounting the cost of a cambelt change. Its not a job I wanted them doing. I traded in my wife's runabout too...
