|
Rich , has it been that clean since ? :)
Too many trips to rolling roads. Ps is there any space left at the next rolling road, might have my next mod on by then :) |
Dave,

33% wax, how comes it's so cheap?
Or should that be, how comes it's so expensive over here? |
33% wax, how comes it's so cheap? Or should that be, how comes it's so expensive over here? Have no idea why waxes and polishes are so expensive for you guys! I wonder how much shipping would be to the U.K.? |
Because we are idiots and pay any stupid price and get paid crap wages. My mom has a friend who is from Detroit who is living in Wolverhampton. She say the cost of living is double that of what it is in the US, her house in the US cost £200,000 which was a 6 bedroom detached house with a 3 car garage, pool and a pool house with a bar!!!!! Now she is living in a 4 bedroom detached house with a single garage in Wolverhampton and it has cost them £250,000. And to put insult to injury her husband who has got a job working in Birmingham is earning around 40% less than what he would be earning in the US.

That's interesting...my quaint 3 bedroom detached house with an attached 1-car garage cost £52,000 in GBP when I bought it, brand new, three years ago. It goes for about £72,000 now. I'm located about 15 miles outside of Tampa, Florida. Close to the beaches, not far from Daytona or Sebring.
I guess it's all relative of course, I think everything is too expensive and get paid crap wages too! :) [Edited by Opie - 2/17/2003 7:08:10 PM] |
The price of our house for a crappie West midlands town (Wolverhampton) is ridicules 4 bedroom detached house with one car garage £180,000!!!!!!!! And I live in an area with a bad reputation for crime. Really pisses me off!!!! I want to live in the US.
Tim. |
£150,000.00 if you want to take this off my hands. Standard Victorian Terrace. :eek:

Hmmmm, £150,000 that converts to about $280,000 USD, you could buy this house http://www.rivercrestfl.com/audubon_...sp?model=egret, 2,850 sq.ft plus you can ad the 3-car garage and you'll still have 50-60K left over! ;)

Yeah, but me mum wouldn't be able to cook my dinner on the weekend and my scooby would be slower :)

[Rant]
I want to leave home soon im 24 and still living with my parents. Hear we go 1 bedroom flat in Wolverhampton £98,500!!!!CLICK ME. It really does take the piss, fare enough if it was some ware like Aylesbury where Jack Clark lives seems like a nice area but this is Wolverhampton it’s a ****hole how can they justify such high prices for a run down crime ridden concrete jungle Like Wolverhampton. How can anyone my age afford to move out??? [/Rant] P.S. As you can tell this has been eating away at me for some time. These silly house prices are the resin I had to sell my beloved 172.[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] [Edited by Tim-Grove - 2/17/2003 11:02:14 PM] [Edited by Tim-Grove - 2/17/2003 11:02:41 PM] |
Prices have to drop soon. I paid 55 for my place 5 years ago. Much more sensible.
|
Tim - I'm in the same boat as you - I saw a mortgage advisor recently (friend of the family hence his honest opinion and not sales pitch!) - he told me not to do anything for 6 to 12 months - he reckons the a*se is going to drop out of the flat market soon - last year flats were being sold the moment they were on the market - now they are starting to stay on the books for longer periods and sellers are starting to have to take offers as opposed to asking price - buying a flat now could leave a negative equity sting... (Lets face it - they can't keep flat prices artificially inflated for that long - 1st time buyers can't spend that much & eventually there will be no one buying at the bottom end of the market - supply and demand dictates prices *will* fall)
|
Yeah, but me mum wouldn't be able to cook my dinner on the weekend and my scooby would be slower True, no more dinners with mum... ...but you would get to drive the 300HP, 2.5L STi before anyone in the U.K. ;) |

Who sells the 3m polish?
|
Chris,
Most trade motor factors are better for it. Someone that supplies the bodyshop trade. Dave. |
Cheers Dave. I'll have a scout around.
|
Chris,
If you struggle I can find some close by and could ship it to you. Its about £12-£13 and would be £5ish for post. Let me know if you need help Dave. |
If you do use it do one panel at a time. Rub straight off.
Doc |
Thanks to ME aye DOC, for polishing it for the first 7 years :)
