    best boot build/ car build ever

    Definately inspiring, and I like how he does stuff to his own taste, rather then the generic ricer mobiles that are at shows. I can't decide if I like the bumper though. From some angles it looks good, others it looks bad.

    Changing sides for indicator stalk?

    You should be indicating before you do the manouvere. Anyway, both hands should be on the steering wheel except when changing gear, which should only take a second, and if you're doing push pull, which is the best, most effecient and safest way of steering, then your left hand will always be...

    If there's any southwest meets coming up soon, then if you're willing to make the journey you can come down. You can go to any meet if your willing to put in the effort.

    Changing sides for indicator stalk?

    You should be indicating before you're changing gear or direction. Changing gear down will cause your car to slow, so indicating beforehand will give people behind you some sort of message you plan to slow down.

    my steelies project :)

    Funnily enough, I've just been outside now spraying my spare tyre black. It was a bit of a mess but it's nice and gloss black now. Invest in some duct tape. It'll make a world of difference to the neatness, and you can stop it getting on the valve and tyrewall.

    steel wheels???

    If it's 4x100 chances are they'll fit. Almera steelies will fit no problem. I know Mk2 golf ones have the right PCD... No ford ones will, they use 4x108.

    Michael Jackson is dead R.I.P

    Hmm. I like some of MJ's music. Bearing in mind that he was only a singer, and not a composer, and therefore, I don't actually like MJ's singing, I like what tunes the composer came up with. As for the fact he's dead, well... Stuff happens. No one lives forever. I'm personally not a fan of...

    Fuel consumption

    Mines gone down a lot. Time for a service I think. Or maybe it's the fact I took some of the grommets out the firewall and love the noise my car makes at around 5k rpm :p

    anyone know Vb (visual basic)?

    AS computing? I did that last year, with VB, can't remember any of it though. I can't remember if I sold my text book back to college as well. Although if you're doing AS or A2, then we probably have the same one.

    Petrol to rise to £1.15 per litre

    Driving slowly doesn't save you petrol. Driving slowly in your top gear does. It's all ########. Chicanes, traffic lights, speed bumps, 20mph zones, they all use a #### load more petrol then if you could drive straight through at 40 (30 isn't comfortable in 5th gear). And it's not the drivers...

    Failed my MOT :(

    Failed on far side sill rust, and front tyre. Advisory on front brake pads, and nearside front tyre. It's really annoying because those tyres aren't that old, but the trackings been knocked out by the #### state of the roads... Getting the tyre and sill done for £100, ready for tomorrow...

    Similar regs?

    My mum has a Mk2 mondeo LX, and the middle numbers are 891. There's someone in our town with an LX, which has the same letters, and the numbers 892.

    Petrol to rise to £1.15 per litre

    No, a farmer and his wife (i think) got killed when people tried to steal the red diesel of their farm, because of the high prices last year. Seeming the price of petrol basically effects the price of everything, and we're in the middle of a recession, you'd think the government would lay off...

    speedo

    The CG10 speedo, with 13"s is about 10% out anyway. 77 on the speedo came up as 70 on my sat nav. Borrow a sat nav, and hold it at a steady speed (easiest is probably 30, 60 and 70) on the satnav, and see where the speedo sits.

    VW Golf Steelies on Micra?

    Mk2's are 4x100, and so are micra's, so you're alright.

    Petrol to rise to £1.15 per litre

    Meh. The majority of drivers are actually very naive, or don't know anything about the whole petrol pricing thing, so the government gets away with it quite easy. Oddly enough, the only way I can see the government taking off the VAT or slashing the tax a bit is if the whole red diesel theft...

    Reverse parallel Parking

    I don't use any of that reference point stuff. Just learn the size of your car and you can just do it.

    Capn's micra

    Sort of. Getting it in is easy, getting the airbag module in was the hard part. If you don't know, the micra has the airbag, and then some sort of electronic module bolted to the steering wheel, which also works as a medium for the horn to go through. The primera just has the airbag, the...

    Capn's micra

    Long time since anythings happened, so some small bits: Finally got a Primera steering wheel in. Much nicer then my stock one, which you could twist round and made of a horrible material. Also got rid of the stupid old people door reflector things: And when I have some more money to be...
