Had this a couple of years now, and I absolutely love it.
It’s a 2011 61 plate and was on 58k when I bought it and paid circa £19k for it in May 2019. The bud is sitting on 71k now and practically just ran in.
Couple of minor issues over that time, like NSR airbag went, so changed out the...
After hitting a pothole in the RS6, I've had to order 2 of the above tyres at an eye-watering £581 supplied and fitted. Can anyone beat that price?
Cheers, Gaz.
Evening folks, been a while...
I’m caught in a bit of a dilemma here.
For those of you who don’t know me or my story, I sustained serious injuries on my road legal Yamaha Raptor 700, 4.5 years ago and my left leg was pretty badly damaged. At that time, I had a B7 4.2 V8 Avant S4 (couldn’t...
Think the last time I was on here I had my red Mk4 R32 and 172 Cup track car. Since then I've had a B7 S4 Avant 4.2 V8, a 700R Yamaha Raptor (Road legal) and a Mk5 Golf GT Sport 140.
Bought myself a new toy 4 weeks ago, a split new Clubsport GTI Edition 40 and tonight I won (that's right, WON)...
Might not be as straight forward as it seems. The TV needs to be no bigger than 900mm high as it's for a TV bed. Manufacturers recommend 32" TV but I'm hoping to squeeze a 40" one in it.
Can anyone help locate one?
Cheers, Gaz.
Alternator's only showing 12.3v with engine running. Reckon it's fucked? Going to disconnect everything today and clean it up, see if it makes any difference.
AA man seems to think the 12.3v was the power in the battery and the alternator's had it but I'm not 100% convinced.
Might as well get this started.
I for one was pretty happy in Houx but would be happy to upgrade.
I'm in and have already secured transport for next year.

Thought I'd test the GoPro out with the iPhone app, before taking the track Cup to Knockhill tomorrow.
Here's a 5 minute video with the camera mounted above the exhaust.

Ok, over the last day or two the track car has been a bit iffy when starting. Now it's not starting at all.
Strong turnover
Fuel pump priming
No immobiliser light on dash
No fuel when turning over
I've had the TDC sensor off and gave it a clean but still nothing.
Got a trackday on Monday...
Needing a favour..
I've got 2 sets of A048's lying at Knockhill and they need to be collected tonight after 7pm..
If I Paypal you the cash, could you pick them up and store them till next Tuesday and I'll grab them off you?

Anyone tried these? Thinking of buying a set for the Cup.

Anyone used this?
Went to see Need for Speed tonight and opted for these D-Box seats. What an experience!!
Don't think I could sit on a normal cinema seat, now.
Seems to be loads of Knockhill threads being posted lately. Probably better off having a proper thread that we can post dates in and have discussions. Saves having multiple threads on the go.

Hi guys,
Been a long time coming (7years) but I managed to get @Ali's dad to part with this little beauty. A tornado red Mk4 3dr R32 with only 1 previous owner and on 32k. I've been trying to buy this particular car for circa 7 years but Ali's dad wouldn't part with it. Received a phonecall...
My new car has a Halfords battery fitted and is into the 4th year of its 5yr warranty. Would Halfords replace it "no questions asked" if I took it in and said it was faulty? I've got the receipts etc.

Any of you lot up for this?
18-19 January '14.
Tickets starting from £49 + booking fee.
General sale tickets go in sale on Friday AFAIK, but you can sign up for early bird tickets that go in sale tomorrow...
Basically, I own an E53 54 plate X5.
Problem is, over the last year I've lost sound from 3 of the 4 door speakers. I've done a search on Google and it comes back as being an amp fault (BM54). Any idea how big a job it is to find, remove, refurbish and refit?
Tbh, the OE speakers are terrible...
Right, basically, myself and Danny are going to LeMans next June with the usual lot from down south. We've decided to take my X5 and stick an air mattress in the back with the seats down (rather than sleeping in a tent).
Now, to keep costs to a minimum (fuel, pitch, ferry) I'm opening up TWO...
Got to be worth a punt at that price, especially with free P&P.

I've just ordered 2 sets.
