Re: Shot/sand/bead blasting

Has any one had any experience with having shells blasted back to metal? I've had lots of things blasted and not long having a shell blasted myself on my current 'project'. It's well worth doing! You get to see all the sh1t that needs sorting and gives nice clean metal to fix to. If it is all done ...

Re: £12,000 Laser !

Hi, Looks like a beautiful car from the photos. I hope the seller gave the old boy a fair price for it. Andrew. I doubt it! :headscratch: Pure speculators as far as I can see. :evil: There's nothing like talking up a story (in this case a hopeful overpriced sale). Whose to say it's not just a rouse...

I'll just add my :welcome: too.
I've not been on here long, but there are some good helpful people on here and for an open forum, it is refreshingly clear of troll types.

Re: CRaP 2015 3 Months to go.....

I might try and get there for this, well at least for one day anyway.
It's not far from my house.
It will all depend on whether I am 'playing bombers' that weekend or not.

Re: For The Love Of Cars

Was it me alone, or was it that, that car just didn't do it for me?
The £150k was clearly driven by a couple of :wank: ers that obviously have far too much money.
Or maybe they were both 'celebrity' (phlegm) struck and went all glassy eyed.

Re: Thought I'd introduce myself.

Here's my old one. I am itching to get another. So what's stopping you? That looks like a nice example you had. Have seen on your list you own a RSi Yes I do, a grey one which is one of the rare coloured examples, only some 250 produced. It is a nice car, but against my LC, one of only 284 RHD mode...

Re: 4500 mile Capri

Have I got this right, This car has gone from one dealer to another in recent times in the hope that they will be able to sell it to some individual for a grossly inflated price? Without trying to be horrible here, I hope that one of them gets stuck with it!!!! The general market has not driven that...
