Goodbye and thanks to all you vtr fanatics
She's sold, gone to a guy near Brighton who's got another firestorm with a knackered rear head (mcct came loose and unwound the tensioner). He will likely be on this forum soon as I told him of its greatness! I've not been online for ages as my sons been in hospital for 4 months but better now. Need...

I'm over the moon. for 6 months I've had hanging over me a ...

Re: w&nkers: speeding= 6 points & £660+court costs
Is that section 172 of the Mental Health Act? They will need to have two doctors in agreement to give you the points and fine. No not mental health act, although I am mental! S.172 is failing to provide driver ID aka failure to furnish. The reason being that I never received the penalty notice for ...

Re: w&nkers: speeding= 6 points & £660+court costs
cps have now confirmed the the charge will revert back to 2 charges of an sp30 and a s.172.
bad news is if i get done for both thats 9 points and about a grand!
good news is cause there's 2 charges back now i have a chance of plea bargaining for the lesser ad getting just 3 points and £100 fine..

Re: 14.6
agreed, thats fine, although on the high end of normal for a lead acid battery.
just be sure the volts don't climb any more as the revs increase but you should be fine..

Luckily I extracted the rotten front studs and made up a split flange a few months back so the job was do-able without a headache today. 2 knackered mikalor clamps later and I find the problem- the rear header to link pipe seal...
