Wrapped the fake carbon fiber on trim pieces, I personally think it looks much better than shiny plastic with a 'weave' painted on it.

I kind of like it - but it looks out of place sort of? I prefer the standard carbon look. Even if it is fake (you don't tell anyone that! from the window it looks good :D).
 
Welsh roadtrip yesterday, traffic was not great (A5 on the way back especially horrible as expected of a bank holiday), but just look at the scenery and roads. Did want to get some dashcam videos but wind noise and traffic

Where in Wales is that? Looks nice and a great drive.
 
Most of those pictures are from the Llanberis pass, driven from Beddgelert to Llanberis. Going from Llanberis to Capel Curig is decent enough too, did that on the way back :)

The Llanberis pass is a fantastic road - I've got friends in Caernarfon so I've driven it many times, never fails to provide a great drive.
 
Lets not bring that up again like I did, I'll end up getting a warning or a temp ban. Its idiots like him who put my mate in hospital a few years back with a shattered pelvis. Lost control and span out in front of his bike on a corner. Turns out they had bald tyres and no insurance. Great. I have no time for people like that. Unless it is to rip them a new one.

Yeah you rip them a new one over the internet tough guy.

Try not to crash again and injure someone driving dangerously on country roads again whilst venting your anger.
 
The chap who asked if my centre caps were from Ford, no but they're genuines from Fordpartsuk.com which Ross in the ST thread posted up for me. Won't find cheaper apart from one place which probably won't even deliver them after reading feedback!

Fox, I know, but on the flip side I couldn't sell my motor as it is and have peace of mind... I prefer to sell privately to net as much back as I can. Plus, I will much prefer it myself with the paint looking nice. I'm still looking at 1 Series' but for the money they command none are quite perfect enough for my expectations spending double than what I normally do on a car :) I would like something around 12 reg. No big rush at the mo.

May I ask why in the hell u would want a diesel 1 series :confused: when u have a remapped ST Focus :confused: surely a 1 series with a slow tractor engine will bore the life out of u not to mention there's tons of them on the road that all look the same bland and boring "apart from the M135" I don't see how a car like that is worth double your ST Focus.

** Not here thank you **

I crashed at a low speed on a very tight corner which I misjudged, it was dark, there was nobody else involved, I had brand new tyres fitted to my well maintained car, I fixed it myself.

That is very far away from what you'll end up doing you No!. sorry, I was trying my luck. :D

Now... How does the ignore function work... Where is it?

E; done. Thank god for that. :p

Yea, tons of them on the road, stick to something rare and unique like a Ford Focus :D
 
I crashed as I was going too fast on a very tight corner which I didn't take the time to practice slowly before pretending I was Collin Mcrae.

It was dark and not a suitable time to be speeding, thankfully nobody else was involved given that I was on a public road. I had brand new tyres fitted to my well maintained car and still lost it, I googled how to fixed it myself.

Cool story, fixed some parts .
 
So it's not OK for me to take a corner a little too fast on a public road and learn from my mistake, but you are perfectly OK to drive a dangerous car on public roads and put people at risk because you are too incompetent to keep your car roadworthy? :confused:

Perhaps you should sell your car and go back to playing Need For Speed Underground if you want to ignore maintenance tasks and fit shiny bits.

You absolute muffin.. (I doubt the mods will mind that one :D)

I see that lasted long.

Back on topic,

Dropped a 2jz into a drift S13 recently. We put our test plumbing in this morning and tested it. Car needs a piggyback ecu & tune, but it works !

I couldn't resist having a peek at your post. I didn't realise how rubbish the old VBulletin ignore feature is.

Not really, you were driving beyond your or your cars ability.

Anyway, nothing was done to the Evo today but took 4 alloys to a tyre place to get the cheapest tyres I could buy fitted to Yaris T-Sport alloys so they can be fitted to my brothers T-Sport he's selling.
