The Cars a mud covered (inside & out) Xantia TD so we won't go there

 

Bristol Road Thursday, we sandwiched a Cavalier turbo any takers?

you were a DBM looked like a lip on the front and pink subaru badge.

Me MY00 DBM

 

Mr F, yeah that was me. Always the way isn't it - I had a customer in the car at the time, so was somewhat light on the "loud" pedal.

I suspect the guy in the Cav turbo was a little surprised that I was as reticent as I was!

Matt

 

Hi Matt

Nice looking car, i did catch a glimpse of you while pulling out of Pro-tyre.

Couldn't be arsed with Mr Cav Turbo, thought it best to let him pass as he was insisting on sitting on the back bumper.

 

Thanks m8, very expensive trip to ProTyre?

 

about 400ish

followed by the 30k service at 435ish

all in all an expensive day!!!

 

I take it was tyres you bought !

any comments
what you chose and why you chose them ?

need new shoes myself and looking at Yokohama at the mo
AVS sport seems to be off my short list already, after the slatings they have had on here

Andy

It used to be all w4nkers in nova's....
I can see myself making a come back.
(that'll be three scoobs in the crowd then, neither of the others seem to be on here tho. I will have to teach them the error of their ways lol )

Andy

Andy

 

I had a look around chelt sun night first time in ages, there were three other scoobs around, one wagon three saloons.+ mine the only red one, One nice blue one with gold wheels sounded nice as you gave it some past pc world anyone from in here?
The white racetek cossie was out again spec list that would put some rally cars to shame, he put his foot down a bit then backed off, all you could here were the pops & bangs from the antilag echoing past the royal well, very nice motor!

 

two DBM's were in on Sunday, one was mine

the other was an S reg, gold wheels also, young lad.

I'll admit to givin it a "blip" up royal well but don't want to make a habit of it.
(have not got any space left on the licence for any more ahem "mistakes" )

Andy

 

Ok, on the way home tonight, i looked over to my left at the traffic lights by the Jaguar garage and there's a bloke in a Subaru jacket, in a Rover 400/600.

Any takers?


Andy

 

Hang around the Royal well Fuzz and you will get a name for yourself (used to be Boots Corner). My opinion of alot of the boy racers around town is 'not a high as it could be'. Got rid of my Kadett GSI (import) last year and offered it to the 'boys' to break first.

I was on my bike at the time outside Halfords, It went something like this:-

Me: Hi Lads, I've got a GTE going very cheap which would make a good donor car or something to cut around (it was on a D plate),Vgood Engine,Gearbox, seats, Digi Dash, Wheels, Brakes etc, etc. (fit you Novas)
Them: Oh their really slow HO HO HO
Me: I indicated 127 on quite a few occasions in it, but I've got the bike to go fast, I've yet to see a car touch it, Anyway you know anyone who may want it?.
Them: [silence]
Me: I'll be off then
Them: We couldn't get insurance for it anyway
Me: Tara (friendly bunch )
Don't know who was their pr guy to the echo, but I didn't meet him.

I thought I was popular!
did confuse me though, when they said it would cost ME money for a ride in my car
Andy

 

Was not sure if it was u or not fuzz did not see little stickers in the rear windows that you had last time, sorry would of said hello.
I know why I had not been for ages now, Apart from a few nice motors there most are old sheds with neons!

 

The stickers are only for scooby meets and stuff,
I think they'd look a bit "twatish" if I drove round with them on all the time.

stick on tat.... Noooooooooooooo

Andy

 

Most of their women are right mingers

Truly scary.

Can I have my Mums Ironing board back now

 

you dissin my spoiler

I'll have you know that can Iron Shirts faster than Colin MC Rae

hmm best not muppet this thread too much, can't have it stuck in the hutch now can I

Andy

 

LOL no I was talking about theirs. Its there for a reason on the Scoobs, Not just for show, They look so out of proportion on their cars, it must knock 20mph off the top speed when they bolt them on(All smoke & no Poke)

 

Saw a blonde girlie in a STi with roof scoop today at lunch time, i was going towards Cleeve Hill. I was in my scoob then (Red Mica).

Saw a silver WRX (MY01+) late afternoon, but i was then driving a MY97 in green (my boss's Scoob).

Can really notice the age difference between mine and his!

Andy

 

Me.
Dirty brown, occaisionally red, MY95, gold wheels.
Devil fish on boot.

Hopefully see some of you at the Powerhouse on Saturday, just for a look around.

Or Powerstation, or whatever it's called

Powerhouse ceased to be about 5 years ago, It was Fowlers after that, Then Skellerns and is now Cheltenham Bike. Mike Parry (Dave Parry Mototcycles in Manor Rd) is your man if you want to Dyno a Bike in Cheltenham. He is also a top Engine tuner who trained under David Vizard in the States

Edited to say Mike Parry is not a bolt on boy, He does the whole thing, Gas flowing, blueprinting etc etc. He has a well equipped workshop with a flow-bench. I have seen some of his work and he works on anything from 2-stroke bike engines through to big block Yank Iron. IMHO He has forgotten more than many of the 'tuners' in the Gloucestershire area have learnt.
