Hello Stranger ....... STIPAUL

Where on earth have you been?

Everything O.K.

Martin

Got to get 1000 miles on my car. (running in)
Any sugestions for interesting drives?

up near kielder is nice or head along the A69 then across to the lakes but on both u'll be tempted to boot it! :norty:

1000 running in miles killed me

and then the car nearly killed me when i first opened it up after all that time :eek: :lol:

i can remember driving away fron alyns with the very slightest waft of throttle to get moving, i was scared of useing any kind of power.

if i am honest i am still a lot more warey of useing full power, its rare for mine to go over 5500 rpm these days :o

I blame it on driving the Super Mudburner:D

the match the morra
 

ok then who is gonna go to the match the morra will u be taking the scoob down. I will ,fancy meeting up b 4 or going 4 a pint in shearers bar.Chance to get to know some ov u guys b 4 the next meet:thumb:

ha ha ha, forgot about the mudburner :D

i went on a bit of a shine fest with mine today

gave all the red bits a good cutting back with some autoglym polish (i don't really like autoglym TBH but i have had a full bottle for over 2 years so i opened it up ??!!??) then i waxed all the red parts with meguires gold class liquid wax, after this i then used meguires tech wax paste over the top to see what kind of result it would give (slightly different results from tech and gold class IMO)

gave a nice shine, although i was finishing it in the dark at 6.30pm (cold)

when the back end was painted red, i think there may have been a run in the boot lid that the body shop buffed out, and i never realised, i think i started to uncover a very faint white line across the bootlid :eek:

looks like all them people who jokingly said "you will polish the paint of that thing" were right :Suspiciou

i had planned to either get the entire car redone in white this summer, or have the red redone anyway (few chips here and there and a large dent dent), so all is not lost :thumb:

actually i have just had a thought, the cloth did not turn red while buffing the car, so how can i polish the faint white line in with the clear-cote still on :confused:

must have been a dodgy reflection from the floodlights :lol: :lol:

is ...ne.. body going to the match 2 morra ????:p

Think I'll go for a cuppa at the Hartside caff.:)

Minus 3 according to the scooby clock:freak3:

i had -3 in shotley bridge last night, went up to consett at 12.30 am and it said it was -6.

just out of interest, when any of you drive past tyneside college, how does your temp guage compare to theres, mine is always 2 degrees below, wonder whos right lol


john

Whan ever I'm driving past the college I'm worried about my front splitter catching due to the uneven road surface along the Scotswood Road.
Wish they would finish it:cry:

When I got into the car this PM it had been sitting facing the direct sunlight and reached a balmy 6degrees C, woo hoo:cool:

scotswood road, think im lost, i meant the coast road to north shields, past the wills building???


john

Yeah North Tyneside is off coast road Evo, Richie must be thinking of Newcastle college.

thought as much, but i know what he was talking about, i was at BAE (vickers) the other day and the road getting there is a damn joke,


john

D'oh being thick:wonder: , was Newcastle College I was thinking about

do you think the windchill factor affects the car more as your driving along>?

End of another night shift week :sleep: :sleep: :sleep:

It's the weekend, yipeee!!! :luxhello: :luxhello: :luxhello:

Drink! Drink! Drink! this weekend like :lol: :lol: :lol:

i dont know how they work a windchill factor, i thought it was a guesstimate anyway.
