Is on mine

With regards to converting the beam on headlights how do you do about it? as the only covers I have seen will have no hope of going onto the shape of my lights. Although I dont expect to be driving that much at night will we?

Also fad you said I could extend my AA cover on the spot to cover europe if needed, does that still stand?

Drives supercharged Tec with torque

Don't need a GB sticker if you have the blue section on your plates.

Im not ready for this at all. Still need to book my car in for the cambelt, also suspect the cat needs replacing, front suspension is knocking on full lock, it makes a weird banging noise sometimes when I accelerate. Also need to get my new tyres fitted. Still cant find a door either.

Butler, replace the cat with a decat - idiot. Double win.

I've got a walkie talkie. As said tho, mobiles are better.

Gav you usually just take the confirmation to the dock and hand it over at check in.

Hope my idle control valve is fixed before nurburg - it's pissing me off... Also off to jamsport on monday... could be fun.

had a close one today. Was racing a scooby on the m25 roundabout to join around terminal 5, it was pretty damp / wet... and as the two of us swung left onto the on ramp, my car lost the back end (I was looking directly at the driver) ... bit of opposite lock and throttle control, and I regained it and then nailed it down the slip road.

but i did think 'hmm... this is similar to nurburg, arse going in the wet, v.close to the armco'.

don't want to stack it at nurburg - pray for dry weather peeps.
