@emjay82 I shall wait till get home tonite and chuck it up on the big screen, open a tin of the black stuff, Sirloin on the grill........ Yes you've guessed it Mrs Rat's out with her mates 😂 Good find. Bug Rat

@Peter P18 Got the mag tucked away, those are great pictures 👍 Big Rat

@Mark G And the same car in Silver would be worth another 5k 😂 Joking aside I've shown this thread to Terry my mate in Bournemouth who recently bought the M3 I mentioned in the 'weight' post. His car is very unwell already gone back to the dealership who were less than happy shall we say, in that it goes into limp mode dash lights up like a 30k Christmas tree car comes to a halt safely, engine sounds like a bag of nails,interim diagnosis major internal failure of some kind. Good job it's auc car with warranty, like a true friend I've said nothing at the moment only because his shoulders are much broader than mine. Big Rat

Seems good to me matey, presumably next owner can whack a warranty on if required, if it doesn't need tyres pads/discs I reckon it's a good buy having regard to the mileage. Compares well with this one with twice the miles. Big Rat http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201701261693176?make=LEXUS&model=IS F

@lockeyboy you fella are absolutely right, there will be a lip quite normal, its the thickness of the disc that is being reduced across the pad area that has to be watched. The 'F' has high quality brakes, albeit a bit dirty - that's the trade off for OEM, in my opinion a small price to pay, the dirt that is 😂 Big Rat

Stuart Last time I did this, this was the kind of MPG I was getting cough.......cough...... Big Rat

@mrfunex Yes matey it's been hard to convince some around here of this photochromic fact 😂 Glad you had a good day on the whole ! Big Rat

@Toothy I shall forward the link to Mrs Rat to add to the amazon/Bay list for the small number of car products I'm allowed. Amongst the mountain of shoes, handbags,coats,...........😂 Big Rat

@Rusty Crobar Russ Now you are back home thought you like this little demo, then you can get yourself a copy and practice at home from the comfort of your arm chair, just make sure you choose the right colour 😂

@Warrington guy Honestly what's the matter with you all don't you all see what you are missing by doing this europarts thing. Your feet gliding across the highly polished dealer floor the friendly female receptionist ushering you to the sumptuously upholstered sofas, then plying you with pastries little bikkies and wonderful coffee. Then when you've had your fill, she returns and guides you the service desk when an invoice is slid in front of you and they then FINCIALLY RAPE YOU 😂 Whats the matter you got no sense of adventure 😂 Big Rat

@mrfunex I just love live trackside updates, oh no gearbox is it, well if these people will drive 'inferior' transmission equipped cars to the events, just spoils the day for others - only joking perhaps you point this out to him and send him round 🤓 Big Rat

@Defratos I think it would be best to go the simple route for now get the vehicle through the necessary, and once in the uk you can get it as you want at your leisure. It will be much easier on your wallet and patience 😂 That kit above is the obvious way to go for now 👍 Big Rat

@mrfunex Bad weather no problem to skilled south west Silver drivers 😂 Big Rat

@Defratos Did you get my last pm matey the question you posed in your last post is answered in there, basically it's the lighting changes made to the front of the later cars that may just may effect the wiring layout into the column up to the stork plugs. Big Rat

Glad you like it, one recessed into garage floor, electrically operated of course about 3k installed, the way Mrs Rat drives it would be a veratible bargain 😏 Big Rat

@DAW David at the Cannock meet on the weekend people were discussing claying I believe it was @Toothywho had some good success with a clay mit and lubricant, his car certainly did look very very good. Big Rat

@mike m Saw this thought of yours a great vid sorry about the music, one of those turntables fit in your garage matey 🤓

@mike m Actually matey with the numbers round here I thought these might be more suitable Big Rat

I can fully understand that my poor girl lives outside wind - shine - rain being near the coast these as well sky rats 🙄 Big Rat

Think he's after trying to keep as standard as possible look but it comes at a cost 😳 Big Rat

As I understand it @Defratos is trying to keep the car looking as standard as possible whether that is cost dependant I don't know, as regards the construction and use regs they most certainly do have to be complied with as to the location, intensity etc etc, loads on the web all about it. Big Rat

@mike m Very impressive matey, just got home could not see properly on the phone on the big screen it's blazin ! Big Rat

@Farqui yes matey dived into the services to grab a cuppa, Google is my friend 👍 🐀

@Farqui Carfull now fella this a my mean face 😂 Big Rat

@Defratos Fella been in touch with my local dealer/tech and parts and best thing is if you pm me your mobile number and we can have a chat I've got a list of part numbers/ prices and fit information if it helps. Big Rat
