I spotted another cinematic DS that I had never seen before the other night- theres a DS amongst the old yank iron that goes round and round in 'Dark city',an excellent scifi/horror crossover with Richard o'Brien and Kiefer Sutherland, which appears to have been looted of most its plot for 'The Matrix'.

Why on earth make a turbo diesel hot rod and why on earth use a Sierra engine?
A hot rod should by definition make the sort of V8 Rumble that sets off earthquake detectors!
Might put a bid in as I need a pair of red front wings...

Have a look at the front end of this.....

I came across this whilst browsing for a hot-rod project,I say no more..........

Does anybody know what these stupid little fins on BMW roofs are for? And am I the only person who has the urge to break them off and stab the driver repeatedly with them?

Does it have reasonably quick electric windows? I'd be interested in the electric window motors, and maybe the central locking motors for the doors.
How much do you want for these (if it has them?)
Cheers,

W.R.C. SEBASTIEN LOEB & CITROEN XSARA

by ACTIVE8 » 19 Mar 2005, 23:45

I have been looking at the highlights of the W.R.C. Corona Rally in Mexico. Well done to Sebastien Loeb, the reigning World Rally Champion for managing to make his way back up from 18th place to 4th place.
He managed to do this despite his W.R.C. Xsara having a major accident, which left the O/S/R wheel and suspension completely smashed up with...

Guys, don't open the links if you are faint of heart.
This little roach was killed when a fellow decided to inspect a sewer line in the city of São Paulo, Brazil.
Briefly after after entering the sewer, this thing bit him. He was assisted at a medical post and had 3 stitches.
The little bugger is now residing in the entomology labs of a local...

G.S. F. RECOMMENDED IN CAR SALE

by ACTIVE8 » 17 Mar 2005, 23:22

This car is up for sale, & the seller has put a link for G.S.F. in the listing. WELL DONE !

So he knows where to get his parts from at a competitive, and affordable price.
The thing is, he hasn't had much luck with the guy he got to work on the car, who does not appear to know what he is doing so far, and wants to over charge for the pads,...

Try HSS (I think) - my mate gets his Oxy-Acetylene bottles exchanged there I think, and doesn't pay any rental...

Anyone know where I can refill a bottle?
I've tried BOC but they want £56 a year rental and £44 to refill.
Thanks
