Re: Illegal parking solution?

I'd love a GSi, yes. they are not super cars though. What people call "supercars" are a bloody fantasy.... nothing more. I love older Vauxhalls and American classic muscle cars end of. Anything that's built to be 400 foot wide and made in italy ( sick of saying that fecking word) is a fec...

Re: Hi guys

Ouuuch! I had a hernia and have a scar about an inch and a half long, that was painful enough after. Still better than permanently feeling like I'd been kicked in the knackers though. Hope it's healing ok, take care mate, if you push it too soon it can lead to problems. They gave me 6 weeks to get ...

Re: Parent of the year?

Sorry bit of a resurrection here; This is 2 minutes from where I live... when I was a kid we threw stones in it and watched the local trials rider practise there. We were all warned of the dangers and none of us went in. No signs and no fences, just a bit of common sense. It can't be drained without...

Honestly Envoy I'm finding it really annoying that everyone keeps doing stuff for me. Normally I wouldn't mind, but now I've been told not to do anything I'm getting really irritated... bloody reverse psychology.

Hi guys

Well, I'm back after a much needed break from all things forum related (that is all the forums I use, not just cav), and I'm pleased to report my cav just passed it MOT again first time.

Oh and I got married...

Re: veg oil,

For those running long term on veg oil would you please report on any issue you have, if any. All the info available seems biased in one light or another with little long term info. The reason I ask is because at "work" we have a long running discussion with the obvious pro's and con's bei...

Re: Sticker Bombing ???

I could be the only one here who disagrees with the majority... I'm not totally object to the idea of "stickerbombing" but I only think it works on rat motors, e.g. matte black and rust, sitting on it's arse on steelies, then stickerbombing a wing or bonnet or wing mirrors does look pretty...

Re: How to ask for something back

Personally if he's that good a mate I'd steal it back (literally) and when he calls you to tell you of the theft I'd tell him I'd be right there and turn up on the bike. Then tell him you need it back :twisted:
