So how exactly have you played it then? Have you actually sent them a letter, or did you get a solicitor to send it? I have been on to Consumer Direct and they have advised me to send a recorded delivery letter demanding my money and giving them a deadline to pay it back by. This will then act...

Yeah, I rang today and spoke to Tim, he told me that he would be sending out another cheque first class which should be with me tomorrow. Put it this way: I am not holding my breath. Clearly they are taking us for a ride, I do not know if I am actually going to see my money again, I don't want...

Performance On The Net - type potn into google to get the website. I also bought my backbox from them.

Well what I stated are the principles of the law in this area. Those cases are sound, and are not being taught as exceptions - thus not 'flaws in the system'. I appreciate there is a huge difference between academic law and the law in reality, but the principles I stated are correct. I would...

Pre-emptive strikes see the cases of Beckford (1988) and Cousins (1982). Preparing for an attack using explosives see case Attorney-General's Reference (No 2 of 1983) (1984). Information taken from Criminal Law Textbook. Where did you get your definition from?

Self-defence: Only such force may be used as is reasonable in the circumstances. The question of whether force used was reasonable will be left to the jury. If you think you are going to be attacked you may arm yourself in preparation and can be exempt from Firearms and Explosives...

Arnold is right. It is easy to sit behind a screen and advise stabbings etc (and that is indeed what most of us feel like doing in these situations) but in the real world common sense has to prevail. If you have to fight then use your fists, weapons are for cowards. There is no way you could...

I am in EXACTLY the same position as you mate. He told me last Monday that he would send me a cheque in the post because HSBC can't refund my money via card or some garbage. One week later and still nothing. Tell you what, if we don't get our money soon fancy a trip to their HQ in Milton Keynes?

If you are happy to do the cutting and welding which will be required to fit it then great. If you would prefer something which is easy to fit then I would advise you to look elsewhere for a backbox which is custom made for the Micra.

The cheapest place I found a Janspeed manifold was from a company called Edworthys. I would strongly advise you not to use them however, as they turned out to be utterly useless. I am still waiting for my refund some 2 months since I ordered my manifold. I think the best places to get parts from...

There are some real idiots out there. Being a student I see my fair share of trouble on nights out in town - just a couple of nights ago I had left a club early by myself (had a 7.30am start) and got onto the bus. Was just sat there minding my own business and some muppets decided to have a go...

Not sure anyone has dyno'd their 1.0i with a Janspeed system on, but if the increase on a 1.3i is 20bhp then I would guess around 15 for the 1.0i? But I am sure that somebody out there will know the answer.

You will need SOME sort of cat in between the manifold you have shown and the cat-back you have shown, be it a standard or a janspeed one. You cannot directly fit the two together without a cat in the middle because the pipes will not be long enough. If I were you I would keep the standard cat...

I went to this show last weekend, a fantastic day out with some really exotic machinery. We were really lucky with the weather as well, managed to catch the tail end of the sunshine we had recently. It was held at Brooklands, in Surrey. Here is a link to some of the pictures I took if anyone is...

What a pair of cowards. They deserve everything that is coming to them.

That really is good news. I loved the comment from the local council - "If people can hear it it's too loud". (In which case those local busybody residents complaining should be banned from driving and making any noise at all). What a bunch of muppets. Shame they couldn't save Castle Combe from...

About £10 in change removing the seats from a Renault 19 in a scrappy.

Am I the only one who thinks that is utterly hideous?

They use a finer material in the filtration elements, which consequently allows air to flow into the engine at a greater rate. I have the K&N panel filter in my 1.0i, and tbh there is no noticeable difference in power or sound. However, I believe that the cone-shaped induction kits such as the...

Likes: Good economy if I don't thrash it Reliable Cheap to run Easy to drive Plenty of room for a 6'2" driver Fair few tuning parts available The fact that they annoy Jeremy Clarkson Dislikes: Agonisingly slow Not too good looking The reaction I get when people say 'oh so what...
