  2. oh....just an FYI........they reckon 90~100 hrs labour........ material is about £400 for the leather
  3. as you're in Essex and Im in Derbyshire I fear the cost of shipping might be a bit prohibitive ........ Peter Lenton.........and a quote of £2500 to £3000
  4. *&*&$(*$(*%_$_()%ers .......but Im glad theyre getting there....slowly......
  5. @Painterdave I have 2 interiors........one in the car and a spare........ Im going to take the existing trim out and use the best bits and get them retrimmed in new leather........ so yes complete retrim.........
  6. I see the politicians are back to their own sweet ways again...... rather than getting on with it they're arguing the toss about nothing and getting offended by the improper use of language to quote the most namby pamby one I heard........"moderate your language so we can all feel safe going about our jobs" another one......"brought 'this honourable member' to tears..........the words surrender , capitulation, traitor and treason" oh get a fikkin grip would you........ hows BREXIT going or are you just trying to delay it a bit longer by wasting time in venting your own personal frustrations about nothing
  7. its not going to look like that for much longer.......lol its back to original Lagoon Blue....and the interior is changing from green/grey/charcoal to cream leather....... mechanicals done.........chassis is sorted......new shocks, brakes, rebuilt engine, refurbed gearbox, new tyres, new bushes all over the place, etc etc etc...... I've had the car almost 12 months........and its moved about 30ft.........altho' having said that it ran well on the rollers when I took it for its MoT passed that with flying colours last month........now in the 'off' season.........its paint and trim time........fingers crossed.......... oh and removal of the sunroof.......lol

    15 today!

    wow....has it really been that long......seems like only yesterday
  11. sick of it now.....!!!!!! its just another instance where they can just prat about........delay it.....toss it off......waste time....drag the country down....... the self serving....self centred time wasters
  12. mmmmm..........didnt work for the watch tho'......lol who knows................. it still irks me that the Europeans decided in favour of the Spanish......... when you bear in mind that they only changed their name from Lorus to Lotus not so long ago.......but Lotus has been a brand for considerably longer....... no one stopped Ferrari from making a watch............ sorry I digress........rant over....I'll get my coat
  13. what are they reading?.......if theyre in the right pressure range then I suggest the batteries could be on the way out and you'll need new ones other than that....not sure.......
  14. Blow the tyre up.....when it's within the right pressure it'll go out.... I think they come on if the fears drop below 30psi and the front 26psi.......there or there abouts........ You should have 37 at the back and 34 in the fronts........
  15. welcome indeed....and he's right you know...........pics.........we love em.......
  16. oh going to the late kick off................whats he got planned for the 9am kick of on the 5th of Oct............and the 12th cant wait....should be good ............. at least we've avoided any 5:45 kick offs..........
  17. I'm sorry to say that the new Logo still isn't growing on me.......... I must be a right 'owd duffer........... still looks like my 4 year old spent 3 minutes with Microsoft paint.......... I suppose at the end of the day.....its like Brexit.........doesnt really matter about the public opinion just as long as someone got paid for it........
  18. just a quick one on your criteria...... I have an N/A and never use 95ron.......Im sure it says in the petrol flap not less than 97ron as for IPS.......you'll find it adictive as for depreciation........I think the cars you are looking at have done their depreciating........ I dont think colour has any bearing on issues with any future sale....... I tried several before I jumped..........partly because I waivered.........I missed 3 because I was too slow....... I went with a colour I hadnt looked at........and the gearbox Id never tried before (IPS)...........I love it...... which ever you choose you wont regret it........
  19. Ah Soul of Porsche...........I understand now.......
  20. ...........dont show him pics like that.........he'll have a funny turn now hes got to 'that' age.......... appy burfday Kimbers......
  21. erm.........Im not sure I meant to cause distress...... I just cant see any spark of ingenuity or flare..........
  22. what Bibs said........ wasnt this craze started by the nordschleife?....... think you can get virtually any track map logo these days........lol
  23. you'd only need to take your own tonic and a straw.........and may be some kind of filter to get the stones out.......
