[Rookey]

How much are the tickets?

[Firthy]

NOOOOOO!!!!!

GUTTED :(

[Richard K]

Wont be able to come now

I hate garages

I was looking forward to that passenger test flight (I mean ride).

is there any others after pod?

knowlson - £38+ for them to plug in a machine, that tells them whats wrong. And because they only have oil, Wiper Blades and screen wash on site,

I have to wait till tuesday because when stuff is ordered on friday it takes two working days. But if the parts man orders it before 12 midday on monday it will arrive on monday afternoon. *rant over*

Sorry way off topic.

I just need my rear caliper fixed but the dunce at the garage has broken the locking nut that you use to remove the wheels so they cannot get my wheel off to find out what part I need to fix the caliper....... the car has been in since 8.30 and they tell me this now.......

I am going to go back to riding a bike so I dont have to deal with grease monkeys who have a lower IQ then my dog

[Firthy]

Gutted for you mate, my mates dad had 18" kahns on his and the couldnt get them off to put on his new car, had to send the car off to khan

Im going but not sure whether in Celica or FTO

[Richard K]

the garage has broken the locking nut that you use to remove the wheels so they cannot get my wheel off

DO YOU MEAN THE LOCKING WHEEL NUT "KEY" (E.G. 3 PINS)

OR THE LOCKING WHEEL NUT ITSELF (3 HOLES)?

COS MOST PEOPLE SUGGEST "THE SMALLER SOCKET" THEORY

BUT IF IT'S THE KEY, F:censor: KING WRECKS YOUR SET.

APOLOGIES IF I'M STATING THE OBVIOUS. BUT KNIGHTRIDER CONFUSED ME.

I HOPE YOU GET IT SORTED SOON.

[knightrider]

[Nick-Johnson]

[Corolla-98]

Hi People,

I got car sorted yesterday, spark plugs & leads ££££. I've really gotta do the basic maintainence on my car myself, I can't afford toyota labour.

Ed - Keeping the 17's on cos I can't be ubikd to take them off, So I think it will be a little slower (hmmm 0-60 in 13secs ) than normal. So the race is on, let me re-phrase that the slaughter is on

see ya on the strip bucko.

Firthy - Got your number (*118 118*), I'll send a text in a bit So you've got mine. Watford Gap services is just after the M1/M6 junction so We just have to arrange a time.

Roll-on tomorrow.

I'll have to go clean my car again, cos it might actually be looked at unless I park next to Firthy

[corollasr]

i aint decided whether to clean mine. has some nice splats of mud up the side giving it that rally look
