god i go away for a week and everones getting skodas must still be pi$$ed

mike

 

Steve I got some practise at looking at a black Skoda travelling behind me today. Problem was I couldn't play with it as it was the unmarked police car. Will that be your usual position now?

 

Steve

whats up for sale then drop links
oops sound like abbylad..

Mark whens next run

steve

 

Where was the unmarked car Mark?

 

Appeared behind me on Egremont bypass on the way home from work at about 5.15 tonight. Put his lights and sirens on, overtook me then buggered off up towards Cleator.

 

Stephen, I don't think that there'll be a run for a while now. I'm away at the Trackrod rally this weekend, we're getting the rally car SVA'd on Monday so we'll be getting that ready for its first outing, plus i'm going to Catalunya for the WRC event in a couple of weeks and somewhere in amongst that lot i'm supposed to be at work!


Abby, hows the seive, err, I mean headers?

 

lucky git mark

steve

 

headers fooked again. Been in touch with Lee Mac, he works at steel works fab shop now and get the flanges machined flat on headers and up-pipe if i can get them to him..............there lies the problem

 

Steve,

Might sound strange but it would be worth trying to have a word with the traffic cops. I've been told their Skodas run 280bhp as well as other mods, the initial purchase cost is low so they could afford a few mods

Golden Oldie, the reg of the Octavia is WJ02 K**, can`t put full reg on here as i`ll get asked to remove it, but WJ is the Exeter reg code so there wont be that many RS`s round here that start with WJ

 

abbylad

yhm.. hope it is of help

steve

 

Steve, ha ha. well timed post there sir. Just need my shares in corus to go up a bit more and they`ll be getting chopped in so i can start dreamin about a TD05 and ANOTHER re-map

then the carphone warehouse shares are going in to pay for a re-spray bloody stone chips!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Abbylad,

They swap the number plates every so often on unmarked cars, just to keep you guessing....

Oh and there is also a silver one in Carlisle, which must have REALLY good brakes, considering the distance he was off my bumper last time he followed me

DaveW.

 

Sorry just had to post again to get to 555



DaveW.

 

where do you think you`d stand if you jumped on the brakes coz 'a cat ran in front of the car' and the filth gave you a back-ender (oo-err!)

 

Abby, how are you going to get the headers machined? I mean when they are unbolted the faces are parallel but when they're pulled together they ain't. I think that it needs the holes redrilling but they are too close to the edge, they'd need an extra piece welded in.

 

oh great! how am i gonna get outta this one? bloody headers!!!

 

ahh the joys of moddin

 

fao midlife clicky

Hey Faster

Thanks for the clicky ...sad fact is these guys are ten years younger than me.....

Was driving thru' Carlisle at the weekend and saw a smart Black STi8, Small private plate, I guess he's called Rod..... I flashed etc (hopeless really as I was in the Picasso). Then noticed he was OLDER than me.

Now that is RARE


Midlife...

 

there is hope

 

Rod is a Local from St Bees and he has just got his car, i am meeting up with him in a week or so after he gets back from holiday, to talk STI8's

Phil G

 

How was the holiday Phil? Hope I didn't interupt anything apart from your lager drinking

 

Phil

Shake Rod's hand for me as that was some VERY, VERY, VERY, shiny black car

Put the local black Corsa's to shame...brilliant.


Midlife..

 

Holiday great, when you phoned i was just sitting on the beach front with a stella waiting for my steak and chips to arrive

stella at just over a euro a pint, how can it be bad

Although i returned home to fall foul of the curse of the STi8 Battery.
Pick a new battery up from palmers on friday so i can give the baby bus back to wife.
Seeing as im through at palmers i thought i would pick up one of them new prodrive sti spring kits which should make the 18's look even better
