  1. Agree second set of wheels look so much better! Very rare car the Cosworth mercs now, can remember when these were new!! What interior does yours have, is it the original burbery styleee cloth? Wheelere dealers once did a resto on one, was a great watch. Nice to see the rust being repaired properly mate, it's the only way to do it. The grey over the repair is the primer paint , ready for the colour then lacquer after that. Gonna watch this one! Also agree about originality but making it your own, you have to put your own stamp on a car. Its what its all about! Big fan of the 3 series tourers aswell mate, she looked a mint one!
  2. The shop is not working Mae due to technical problems with the forum, but this should be fixed by the end of tonight I'll make sure they get more advertising once this is fixed.
  3. yup, 2 large zippers mate. Looking forward to these!!
  4. Just let me know the postage when I get back mate and I'll sort it out for you
  5. i'll get the money to you tonight mate. will i just send the £36 now, then the postage when you know what its gonna be? I'm away as of Friday for a week, so wont be near the site, so may have to give you the postage when i get back home, if thats ok bud?
  6. Mine were waiting for me when I got back from hols last night! Mega impressed mate, nice looking kit! Them Hermes delivery guys need shot though! There was a "missed parcel" card on the floor when I opened the door, and he'd written on it (in green bin". When I went to my wheely bin, which was full to the top with garbage, there was the parcel sitting in amongst it all! EEEW! And lucky I got back when I did, as the bins get emptied today, so my neighbour would have put my bin out for me seeing I wasnt here! Close call! Cant wait to get these fitted, gonna look amazing! Loving the photos of them on Ruby John, really makes the bay look a lot nicer Thanks again for getting these for us Alex, much appreciated mate!
  7. My order is two large zip ones mate not an xl
  8. I had great service from faz at funkypower a few years back, so will contact him soon to see if they'd be interested in the forum. They were civic5 traders a long time ago, but left as they too were too busy for forums, might be OK now though. Will try the others mentioned too
  9. Yeah, the big tuners are only interested in one or two clubs, which is disappointing but understandable I suppose. Rich and dynodaze are still here, but know they are really busy nowadays. Will contact some of the above, see if we can get them onboard chaps
  10. Yeah, mega scary, but exciting as hell too! Wish I could take credit for the photos,but its a guy whos a photographer that took them. Bloody amazing photos, wish I'd thought to get the camera out, but fear the shots from under the bed would probably not looked as good! lol
  11. It was scary to say the least mate! lol Whole house was shaking!!
  12. Stunning mb6 mate! Love the amount of work you've put into her so far, well worth the results!
  13. Didnt have hail, but heavy rain. What we did have though was the most extreme thunder and lightning I have ever seen in my life!!! Gayle and me were lying there (Gayle loving every minute of the lightning and wanting to go outside!!!!) and it was right above the house at one point!! Lasted for around an hour. The following photo was taken by someone from a house up the road from me on the opposite side of the street. The cottages in the silhouette.........my house is around 300 yards to the left of them!!!!! Epic stuff!
  14. Well, on our way to western to pick up the new bolts and rocker gasket. DD going on the road today as can't use the Typer...... Mot ran out today.....school boy error! Thought it ran out tomorrow as that's when the reminder said it did! Doh! So tomorrow it gets mot and also need to tax it. Expensive Month!

  18. When do you need the final list for mate? Need to see if Gayle wants one. If so, I'll put my name down for two
  19. Been looking at some of the various brackets around the engine bay that I'm thinking of taking off and metal polishing. Oh, and wanting some new wheel nuts!!
  20. lol my thoughts too Alex, bloody high price for some bolts. Mine are all buggered though so left me no option Got the old cover sitting on the workbench, so gonna have another go at getting them out of the old rocker.Otherwise I'll need to cut them off. Don't want to bin a perfectly good cover cause of some dumb ass bolts! lol
  21. Yeah, that was Ruby mate. Exactly the same thing, the wee stud that one of the bolts goes into unscrewed from the head, meaning probs removing the rocker cover. Pain in the backside those studs! Think I'll put some copper grease on the new bolts before doing them up, should hopefully stop them getting stuck to the studs.
  22. Just aswell I ordered new bolts for it................went to remove it and all 5 bolts are busted. The studs that they go into have got stuck on the bolts and can't get them off, so all new bolts it is ( £57 ouch!) Things are never simple!
