I know, my **** needs a good kicking for letting it get so dirty, but someone has parked outside my house for the past week & half so i've not been able to get out the hose. The pics of it wet were just after i'd cleaned it, all the rest were taken today (2nd Sept) and its rather unclean.

Its a Catalunya, 1997. Standard aprt from the guy who owned it before me had a Magnex exhuast put on.
My exuse it, being black, it gets dirty quickly.

I see that there is a Group of Scooby's in Eastbourne, i'd love to meet up if you do that kind of thing. I went up to Guildford alst night in a friends car to a cruise, saw some lovely scoooby's up there, was fun, slightly too msny police pulling everybody over though.

Hope to hear from any local groups of scooby's. Errr, how do you add pics to this?

A grown man with no idea how to post pics - you should be ashamed

First off you need to upload them, either to your own webspace (provided by your own ISP) or too something like the TurboSport Uploader pages.

So, create your images in JPEG format to keep their size to a minimum, then got to this website http://bbs.turbosport.co.uk/upload.php

Browse for your files, then click upload.

Simply copy & paste the commands into your thread

i.e. [ img]http://upload.turbosport.co.uk/getpic.asp?File=20029215226970440.jpg[/img]

I've added a space [ img] so you can see the full code. If you remove the space, you just get a picture.

So, all you're doing is telling the system it's an image (using the opening and closing img tags. The bit in the middle is just the url to the image.

You can do the exact same thing for website links using url tags.

Like this [ url]http://www.impreza-rb5.co.uk[/url] (again remove the space in the first url tag)

Question

Thanks to Stefan for the info on uploading pics


I forgot to mention, my car is poorly. Having had it service back in April, it requird new ignition leads cos the old ones were corroded and playing sillies when it rained. Anyway, bought some Magnecor KV85 leads, had them fitted and several weeks later the car started to missfire if you floor it, after having the leads removed and the old ones put back on it still does it. Doens't matter what dear you are in, but it only seems to do it when the car has got warm, so after driving around on a nice sunny day for a while etc. I've had new spark plugs to (just in case). I've booked it in to a local garage that have all this diagnostic stuff but it ain't till October, anyone any ideas? anyone had the same problem?

, acutally I forogot to mention, its no longer a disabled bay, hasn't been for several years now. I don't think you can really see from the pics, there is no longer the pole thingy. The guy that used to live their was indeed disabled but when he moved they put up a notice to take down the pole and as we didn't object, down it came. But they never bothered painting the road. Its good, cos a lot of visitors and students that live here don't know and so it stays empty alot. But i can often use a disabled bay anyway as my sister is a badge holder.

Yuk! Don't like this pic, horrible spoiler! and nasty non coloured side skirts - oh to have the money to sort these...
