Re: Aggghh just broke down

Wow, the batteries are expensive on these Coupes. :icon-surprised:
Well, compared to other cars I’ve owned in recent years.
Why so?

Re: East Carlton Park - 18th November 2018

I have an affiliation with Orange too being a KTM bike owner and a Luton Town fan. Not sure I’d dress up though. Although I do have plenty of KTM t-shirts. :icon-biggrin:

Re: Hey all

Welcome. I had a 94 M FTO GR 4 speed auto in steel silver. I did like that car and fitted a nice custom 'Dragon Fire' back box and Apexi induction kit. Lovely V6 sound. I guess with the tappet sound you had a FTO GPX Mivec as they had adjustable tappets. What Skyline do you have? I still love the or...

Re: Winter Tyres and Chris Knott

Given that winter wheels/tyres are a positive safety measure, I'd expect a discount rather than a surcharge! I agree, (although maybe not a discount :icon-lol: ) but certainly most people who do fit winter tyres don't tend to use their fancy (or nice original) wheels on come winter time so there sh...

Re: Excited Double Newbie

Welcome. I've had my fair share of Toyotas but never Jags. I've had 2 x mk1 MR2, 4 x mk2 MR2's (including 1 x rev 3 turbo, 1 x rev4 n/a and 2 rev 2 n/a's). I also had a '92 Celica ST185 Carlos Sainz. Most recently a Yaris mk1 1.0 was my steed before I px'd it for my coupe. You certainly get value fo...

Re: Gen 3.5 New Owner

Thanks. I've been reading many posts and looking at various websites including Opie Oils, EuroCarParts, Halfords, many and various old forum posts about which oils to use. I like to do regular changes anyway so will likely be opting for 10w40 Semi Synth and change it every 6k miles or 1 year. I was ...

This will be my 38th car that I've owned and I just took the plunge and went for the Coupe after seeing it in a dealers yard. First plan ...
