Re: road rage - what pisses you off on the road?
what annoys me is when someone in the main flow of traffic stops to allow someone out of a side street when it is only them or couple of cars till an empty road behind them! it takes longer and causes more inefficiency to do that than just keep going and the guy can pull out as normal straight away ...

Re: road rage - what pisses you off on the road?
reading all of this i find it harsh to be talking about other drivers in this way when 90% of it is a mistake or unintentional. i feel sorry for those who cut a lane unintentionally then someone else shouts or does something aggressive toward them for it. the poor person who made a mistake is now pr...

Re: My C25 XE project
ye fair enough all that said, but I'm telling you, for a first time, it ain't that simple. It's not "a couple" of breathers here and there, there's loads. Unless my V6 has magically more hoses and bits than everyone elses, I don't know. It's one of those things I'd rather take my time wit...

Re: My C25 XE project
This is the same model as mine, simply a cavalier v6. I see people comparing it to the vectra gsi in terms of mpg and I've had a couple of vectra gsis and the cav is much better. In fact its as good as my 2 litre cav was on fuel. The vectra on The other hand was dreadful on fuel, both of them. Dont ...

Has anyone ever fitted speakers in this rear shelf on a saloon i was thinking of trying this but to look at from inside the boot it looks like it may not be possible :scratch I just fitted huge magnet vibe 6x9s..
