  1. Bloke at work just sold a modified to look older than the 1994 mini it was for £11k. It was immaculate and had a 10 inch brake conversion, so it could have smaller wheels.
  2. Maybe it is a Bini....... made in the old variomatic Daf plant in Holland where the C'unt'yman was assembled.
  3. Not all racists wear the clothing described.
  4. Saw an astra mk1 GTE, shoehorned over a calibra turbo 4x4 floorpan. That made sense to me.
  5. Why not a 911..allagro, or maybe a boxter
  6. Clearly the seller, wasn't intending the purchaser to pass off another car as the one he was selling the ID for. In a similar way, gun sellers don't expect people to go out and commit murder, sellers of hammers don't expect them.to be used to bludgeon people, and sellers of bleach don't expect it to be used as a weapon. Wait. What do you expect an ID to be used for ?
  7. Vauxcast or coscast head? One goes porous. Used to be a company that repaired them. Either way it's the engine to have.
  8. https://autoshite.com/topic/53918-now-for-sale-mk4-astra-16-16v-club-march-2000-w-reg-bromsgrove-not-£1300£1000/page/3/ Sell the MG for £400, buy this for £999. Seriously...
  9. When I went permie, I made my wife's role as Executive Responsible for Director motivation and welfare, redundant. She keeps asking where the redundancy pay went. On the roof.
  10. If they valued the assets, the buildings and the land the car park sits on and it turns out that they are basically a nit fir profit job creation scheme, that's when you've got to worry.
  11. Profit as a % of investment is where it's at. Not as a % of turnover.
  12. I filled up in *Nechells last Friday morning....£1.299. Will be putting another £50 in tomorrow *Costco Birmingham next to Star City.
  13. I recently priced up the ferry. And then booked a ferry to the Isle of Arran instead.
  14. Shame she wants an auto. I could point her to a lovely Spanish waiter hatchback.
  15. A fair few....on the J platform. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_J_platform Always wanted a generation one isuzu aska In particular the Irmscher Turbo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isuzu_Aska Quiz Question : How is the subaru legacy connected to the mk2 cavalier ? Answer : The Aska started off as a badge engineered mk2 cavalier, before becoming a badge engineered Legacy, and eventually becoming a badge engineered accord. Also built in South America and called the Chevrolet Aska
  16. The daft thing is you can buy all the panels separately and once repaired it's worth £10k (I think)
  17. In 1986, my mate Ian, took the head off a marina engine, and the sump, removed all four rods, one of which was bent, rebored, the cylinders, refitted 3 of them with the original pistons and new oversized rings, and the forth rod and piston came from a visit to a scrap yard, and got it going. The most autoshite nature of this that it was done in the street outside his house. You have a workshop ? And more skills than Ed China, so it should be easy for you. (Probably) good luck.
  18. Put the spark plugs in the oven on gas Mark 5 for 30 mins. Assuming everything else is okay, it will start.
  19. West of Derby ? As in sMackworth or West Derby as in where Coleen first dropped her knickers for Wayne, (from Croxteth)?
  20. I've been to Billy's place, and it is indeed in a well to do area. Not all of Chester is as nice.
