im off now

 

bit rich coming from a chavalier owner

 

engine and stuff going in te morning. someone from leicester is coming to pick it up

 

that the last of the subaru bits jay

 

admit it you want one

 

i've never owned a calibra, believe it or not

 

yep engine complete minus turbo(closed deck block), steering rack, spare cylinder heads, alternator, power steering pump, aircon etc

 

had plenty of caveliers though

and a very quick ex-police 2.0litre cav in white

140mph was no problem

 

yep, I reckon mine will touch 140 at about 6.5k / 7k revs in top gear

 

good bit of stuff there jay, i had nowhere to put it, when you offered it, and its wether i will need it, !!!!!!!!!

 

£120 I have let it all go for, mrs was moaning about garage space. Told her its my space

 

also had a rover ex-police

825 rover with honda 2.5 v6
car was horrible, but the engine ,,,,,,, fantastic

jamie my mate took it home and embarrased a lancia intergralle on his way

 

right im off now, beer calls

get better soon

 

yep only rovers to have were the ones with the honda engines

 

anyway what have i bought today

 

jaguar S-type 3.0l v6 auto


goes very well, smooth and quick

bought from the only owner it has ever had, 37000miles on it

 

i think the jag is a better car than the merc S-class i have

there very similar age, but the jag was half the price of the merc when new!!!

everything on the jag works!!!!
more than i can say for the merc! S500 v8

 

off to ellis-brigham tomorrow

 

bought some snowboard boots just before christmas, nearly £200 !!!

the ones to "have" apparently

anyway they are crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

damn things kill my feet, even walking down the street they give me pins and needles in my feet

once strapped onto the board they make them go numb in minutes

totally unbareable

 

ended up hiring boots while on holiday

will be sending burton the bill

 

will have to see what they say at ellis-brigham tomorrow


it may end with a letter to BURTON, bad PR they don't like apparently,

or they will be sold cheap

and another pair will have tobe bought

 

 

Thought you were going today?


My uncle had one of them. The button for the reclining electric rear seats was right next to your knee. If you fell asleep you'd end up strangling yourself on the seatbelt as your knee rested on the "recline" button.

 

morning all

 

gotta have an eartha kitt in a min

 

its bubblin

 

 

been quiet in here recently
