realised I need to service, mot and tax the (t)rusty silver slag sharpish.
also, found that the issue with my android playback on my head unit is.. my current android phone. shoved an old android phone onto it, job sorted!
on my normal phone it would work once but then not again. on the old phone it works every time.

HA
no. Fixing it. Again. cos the CAS and one coil died this time. Plus the jackson racing CAI decided to have a pipe split
Still got to put half the interior back together from inspecting ignition wiring and the ECU
then waiting on replacement pipe for the jrcai
Then i can tidy the engine bay up again and fix stuff down properly
Hopefullyy all by thursday so i can go to the bracknell meet without it dying again

Hopefully you'll get it sorted soon. A week without my car has felt like AGES!

Even a day is awful for me. Megan hasn't had hers for about 2 or 3 months now and we are both getting withdrawal symptoms

I can't see my selling mine. That means if ever I get the car itch again it would have to be an addition to the family, rather than a replacement. What with everything I have to pay out for (doing up a house) I can't see me making a change for the foreseeable future! Hooked.

replaced the last of the rear end bulbs with LEDs.
other than the foglight, which doesn't work anyway.

lent mine to my boy for a few days after someone kindly kicked both his door mirrors off his M3, w*nker , the perpetrator, not my boy!!! called me this morning saying how he had to "muscle" a VXR out of his way on the A27 slip instead of being upset, the VXR driver was salivating at the next set of lights and giving Lew the thumbs up..............nice to be appreciated

Got my car back and went for a long drive home. Then out to dinner. I still want to go out later tonight as well. Awesome times!

Finally wound the front suspension down, no more backwards rake! Obviously drove the splitter straight into the floor pulling off the drive, maybe I should've wound the back up instead...

I took my little girl Lili out in the 5 today. She absolutely loved it! We were driving along some great flowing country roads and her hair was flying around. So I think we have our youngest member at 8 years old 2348 by s_worksair, on Flickr Making memories

So I think we have our youngest member at 8 years old Have you considered enrolling her in the Under 17s Car Club? She might be a bit too young at the moment but they do have a waiting list. She'd have to use a boring family car during the training days but would be awesome to get her driving properly (physically and mental-attitude speaking) before she has to deal with the morons out there on the road.
