Fook him. Scouse git has nothing else worth stealing.

Besides, you could split and start a project thread about your car!

Induction kit sounds good. However, you will find many discussions explaining at the level you are looking at that the airbox is a better option and will give you better results.

I use mine daily for the work commute although the way petrol prices are going up all the time its starting to cost a bomb filling up twice a week... might be better getting an el-cheapo diesel runaround...
:lol:

I went up a long steep cobbled road today at around 10-15mph and was shaken to bits, got to the top and something was grinding when i got to the top of the hill when ever i turned left / right from the back of the car... stopped and had a good look, mud flaps were okay, kicked the tyres and they still felt inflated so carried on - grinding stopped fairly quickly but it highlights the one of the downsides to using it daily as there was no other road to use to get to see the client... :roll:

V-Power was around 1.10 a litre when I took mine off the road last year, I havent paid attention to it since as my run around gets normal BP stuff usually but I think I'm in for a big shock when i go to fill up for the first time again :roll:

Here's my theory, raise the price of fuel to the sky and make more room on the road for me to play?

Well the last Shell station I filled up at with VPower was 122p per litre and cost about £58 to fill up. I budgeted £200-£250 a month based on a tank a week for a performance car like the WR1 as the car cost £40-£43 per tank when i got it to fill up. Now im doing more miles and filling up twice a week just for work its costing me £470ish a month in fuel :shock:

mega is eyeing diesels.. there not that bad! torque is really good and surprisingly quick.. a lad had a 110bhp seat leon.. few mods and ended up about 180. upto 90mph neck and neck with an R32 which IMO is impressive
