Find a clean pillow, bite down hard and you'll be just fine

Been twice in two months, they really know their stuff.

All my oil leaks gone and a service, plus other bits.

You won't be disappointed.

I got straight there no probs. well I say no probs it was raining with floods everywhere the journey up and freezing when i got there with the roads like a sheet of ice so made it to the turning stopped and then struggled get going again maybe I need to book a service for next year now judging by how busy they look now

[FoxdieUK]

Am here now (free wifi, epic!), I've never seen so many Monaro's and R8's in one place! It's like a naughty dream! *girlish giggle*

They're just starting on my car now, just been speaking with Roger (friendly genuine chap), he's just pointed out that I've had the inside of the rear arches trimmed back to fit the 20" rims (something the previous owner did), there's no spot welds left holding the outer wing to the wheel arch I think today is gonna be a "fun" day of finding out all the little "quirks" that Brian* has...

Oh and yes, I too sailed STRAIGHT past the entrance luckily there was a little entrance on the road to do a 3-pointer in.

Moif; There's a black R8 on their lift at the moment, that yours? Roger used that as a comparison of what wheel arch spot welds Brian should have.


* Brian Blessed, nickname given to my R8 by the other half because it's loud, angry, big and red(faced)

Stop trying to get me into trouble you!

I would love to get some cams into my R8, and an LS7 clutch to match, but just can't afford it. If I was (much) better off, I'd be like "Here's £20k, break the 1000 RWHP mark please "

[aldor]

Cams, Hmmmmm!
Any nice shiny toys you have spotted ? and it makes a change from you encouraging me to spend the hard earned.
now how about a nice remap while yr there, you know you want it

[richie slow]

Don't forget, you are allowed to take pictures, but only if you post them here.

PICS!
