    getting a refund with no recipt?

    My girlfriends sister works in a cloths shop and she said you only need a receipt if you want a refund. If you take them back and they have the labels on still then you can get a store credit or exchange for a bigger/smaller size.

    New £10 fish tank

    I have a tropical fish tank too :) Not many fish in there at the moment, my pleco died last week, he was old :( Was going to upgrade to a marine tank but I am moving house in the next year or so and makes it not worth setting up as they take 6 weeks to settle before you can add fish

    My Micra restoration Project

    Spoken to the previous owner and she said that the floor pan was welded to pass the last MOT so the hole I can see is just the bottom but does not go right through it. So thats a job off the list :D

    Alloys-performance

    If you want to increase the wheel size and not lose performance you will need to pay extra for the likes of OZ Racing...There wheels only weigh about 4.5Kg. If you put 'normal' alloys on then your acceleration will be affected due to the engine needing to work harder to turn the wheels

    .. fined by police

    Take it to your local Citizen advice bereau, they will know if you have a case to appeal. Its 50/50 if you do as she has mispelt things, but is the reg number correct? Also they will know if it was really foggy from weather monitors etc. (In court that is) Bottom line is you had your fog...

    running in a new micra

    As long as you dont go ragging it for the first 500 miles or so, they dont really need running in. Engines have about 500miles on them before they go in the car anyway to test the engine.

    custom exhausts

    The only custom exhaust center that is better than Powerflow is MIJ Performance. Its a treck for you though as its in Walsall but they do give you £20 towards petrol :)

    My Micra restoration Project

    Well figured I might aswell start a blog before I get too much work done. I bought the car (1.3 LX) off my step-sister-in-law (phew) for £50 knowing it needs work to be done. Well got the car home with the exhaust blowing like Paris Hilton on a good night, which to my relief I didnt see...

    Help spec'ing a pc

    The only thing that would worry me with the computer from Ebay is the 4GB of memory. Some applications (mostly games I guess) will have trouble with them as they can not run 64bit yet. And with 4GB Ram you are running in 64bit maths. Other than that it looks sound to me

    MIJ Performance Skyline

    The people who made my exhaust for my Mondeo ST24 have a R34 Skyline with approx £80k worth spent on it. It was producing about 1150BHP last time I was there. Here it is in all its glory. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t246f6oowUc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqEizku4wtU They also...

    How to guide on changing the gearbox?

    I am now a paid member for 2 car clubs. I am happy to pay for them as these are clubs not 'forums' so funding is required. Its not like its hundreds of pounds to join, a measly £10 a year can get you everything you need. The way the guides are kept for paid members is good IMO and does not mean...

    How did you feel when you got your first Micra?

    Well I thought I was still dsriving my Mondeo...Going from 193BHP to 55BHP is scary lol Oh and also my Girlfriends Micra is a green Twister so its even more embarassing. I got used to it though and enjoy throwing it around corners as and when I can :)
