  1. I think if your hair was like :zee: you'd get pulled over even more than like B) :D
  2. Is it because the chavved up Golf is more likely to contain toerags, uninsured/unlicensed drivers and drugs? Or is that just in the valleys where I'm from?
  3. Mine was in the boot at the Portland Mini Meet! Used it later in the week to do my sister's (my old) Carina E. (usual checklist for going on holiday - clothes, yep - towels, yep - toothbrush and stuff, yep - electric polisher, Meguiars and stepdown transformer, ye-WHAT? :P ) Veeeeery nice, Mike - better do mine again now! Why/how are you getting the bumper changed under warranty?
  4. Many phones still need this core. BT Converse 220's don't ring without it (as I found out in work a few weeks back, used a mirror-image cable which put the ringing current to pin 4 instead).
  5. Can you afford the initial outlay (otherwise, can you suck up to the bank manager sufficiently to get the money)? Also, just how busy do you think you'd be? are we talking flat-out 5/6/7 days a week here, or would you be spending most of the day just twiddling your thumbs? How many people come for geometry checks when they should be in work? Would working a more oddball shift (07:00-09:00 and 17:00-23:00, say) mean that people could catch you before/after work, resulting in increased business? If this is the case, would it be possible to team up with a local garage that has their own 2/4 post lift, workspace, etc. and do your work when they're not there? Or maybe have an agreement with the place you're at now? On the other hand, do you have your own garage or workshop, or space for one? Is it big enough to take a lift? Could it be? Would the neighbours complain? Would it do for starters? Is it secure? Could it be? These are just ideas that are flying round my head at the moment, use or dismiss them at your leisure, there's a lot there to consider!
  6. I feel a "topic closed" coming on... :shutit: Put it this way. I live in Wales. I went Gold. I don't feel cheated. Work it out.
  7. I remember looking at this when Lexus Edinburgh were flogging a set of rear calipers for the IS. Turns out they're the same as on the GS and SC. Different part numbers for the LS though.
  8. If you have your own website, you may be interested in http://www.projecthoneypot.org/, they hide machine-only-readable links in your page. Anyone automatically harvesting e-mails from your site will hit that page and get tracked.
  9. Five year warranty and three years' free servicing? We wish!
  10. Thought of reinstalling but won't that delete my library? ← Using the latest version, Mike? The 3.1 update is on the Sony site.
  11. Reel her in. Whoever comes to collect the car, have the cops waiting to arrest them for fraud. Or if you're feeling cranky, just kill 'em. Who's going to report 'em missing? :shruriken:
  12. Now's the time to change the code, write the new one in the handbook or service book and keep that in the house!
  13. Maplin do 'em. Each telephone socket in my house is accompanied by a Cat.5e socket, both mounted side-by-side on a brass faceplate. Nice!
  14. Pronounce the xi as si, as in "vision", is it? Congrats!
  15. That'll be the standard "tilt and telescope" wheel, then. Moves to topmost position and retracts as far as it can, when you take the key out (is this available on the IS?). Jap writing on the satnav, so it ain't a Lexus LS400, it's a Toyota Celsior.
  16. If it's the same as the Mk.1 GS head unit, the code can be changed or disabled by the user. Might be worth tracking down the former keeper(s) to see if they can remember. Also, check the user manual, it might have been written in there. I thought they were made by Fujitsu Ten?
