    Another Crashed VXR

    There was a nearly full page ad in the Metro yesterday from some ambulance chasers urging people to claim if they'd been affected. http://www.yourlegalfriend.com/sherburn-in-elmet-recycling-fire?gclid=CKbz9dKhmbwCFWXnwgodZQ8AlA You should start practicing your hacking cough "Where there's a...

    Carlsberg Do Do Parking Spots

    Most probably! Or even worse they can't park and have to us the quieter end of the carpark. Biggest wind up merchants are the ones who take the end spaces where the yellow hash lines are and just park centrally in the spot! Arrrggghhh!!!! Last week was a right ballache whilst the multi story was...

    2013 Fiesta ST

    Mountune have announced their upgrades for the Focus/Fiesta ST: http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=28095 £600 for an extra 15bhp. Thrashes the 200 EDC in value for money terms now as it's still cheaper but with more power.

    Waddington air show

    Shouldn't you be looking where your going?:p:thumbsup: That Typhoon approach was either a incredible piece of skill, judgement and airmanship or the pilot is the luckiest James Hunt in the world! In the words of Admiral T J Cassidy "son, your ego is writing cheques your body can't cash". Lucky...

    Waddington air show

    Yep sat watching the arrivals as I type. Bit slow to be honest but the Belgium F16s made and impressive entrance. Bring sunscreen it's roasting and if today is anything to go by it'll be rammed. Hopefully things will pick up this afternoon. Really looking forward to seeing the viggen!

    I know I shouldn't LOL

    I hit a deer with in a company vehicle the other week. Doing about 60 it made a right bang. And dumped all my air. Crawling around underneath in the dark trying to remember which cock isolates what while avoiding getting covered in deer remains is not fun!

    Things you see at 4am

    He looks like I feel when I'm waiting out there at that time:lol: I had a double take see if I could spot a uniform. See allsorts out there, from the hilarious to the out right frightening! Can't beat Holbeck though for Taxi waiting entertainment.

    Anyone owned a Panda 100hp? How does it compare to the Clio?

    It wasn't a special edition, just an option pack (questionable silver cheat line, silver mirrors, anthracite alloys and red calipers). I had my "Steath Panda" as it was christend by the finacee (due to it's grey paint and total disregard for the ego's of other road users) for just over a...

    saris bike rack

    The feet will mark the paint. They are rubberised to start with so I doubt putting rubber pads inbetween the rack and the bodywork will help. Some people use Heli Tape cut into patches placed where the feet will sit.

    Written off Lambo (With pic)

    Still some impressive looking skid marks there this morning! And tiny bits of Lambo on the pavement. Wonder if he gunned the throttle under the bridge to hear the engine and bang ooops.

    Golf mk7, Steve Sutcliffe

    Interestingly the review in this months Evo suggests that the Mk6 GTi is more fun to drive. A truimph of fancy pants technology over seat of your pants entertainment?

    Worth swapping or selling my 200 for a diesel Audi

    Better off having a frontal lombotamy than an Audi. Either way both have the same effect. Despite what that bloke down the pub might say, they aren't built that well either.

    Who's got a Fixed Gear?

    Used to see a few around work, complete with playing cards stuck in the spokes:woody: It has spread up north. Know what you mean abou the simplicity. I'm sick of sorting my geared commuter this winter. It's a salt encrusted mess! All the fixed ever needed doing was an occasional chain retension.

    Who's got a Fixed Gear?

    I had a On-One Il Pompino. It was a proper work horse bike with racks for commuting not some misguided fashion victims "lifestyle" accessory. Got rid cause I couldn't stand the association. Nor could my poor knees for that matter!
