No a friend imports cars just does it for himself, holiday then should be sorted for when I'm back.coconat said:Typical
Oh? Who are you getting it through? JM Imports?
Nah just find the majority of them of the stuck up snobs Oh that's fine I know who they are- a TL who used to work for us (will probably follow suit and say the housing association) works there now, lovely lady called Susan M? If you know her tell her Natalie says hi
Mario Kart is easily the most in depth of driving sims!coconat said:I play a mean game of Mario Kart. I can own Rainbow Road without even using the cheat jump
But on a serious note yes i've played Forza a fair bit, I actually can see your point about the link as I guess it gives you the chance to simulate a track without the worry at the back of your mind about doing something wrong and ruining an expensive car
Also agree 100% on the mechanical side of things. Everything I know about cars/my car i've either self taught from forums or picked up bits and pieces from friends. I actually would love to just be able to go to those basic mechanic courses just so I can learn, can't expect friends to sit and teach me everything from scratch as it would require a lot of time and patience I guess?
I'll hold my hands up and say I don't know half as much about cars as I would like- just never been in that circle of people to experience it first hand, and truthfully I hate it. I hate having to ask people to do stupid little fix it jobs that I should be doing myself. I do want to learn for the methods, but I also want to learn because I do actually find it fun
My idea of an ideal weekend would be spent working on my car in nice weather if I only knew what I was doing! lol For instance need to change my sidelights, need new brake pads as well, these are things I want to be able to do myself and as I want to track the car eventually and modify it for performance I don't want to have someone do that for me. I want to be able to say i've done all my own work as i'm stubborn like that..but it's daunting when you don't know where to look or where to be taught
Thanks though for the reply, any excuse to play games is fine with me!
You're right-I'm lucky to know someone local at leastTeegwa said:As above Nat you know I'll steer you right lol, we all start somewhere and there is a few long in tooth on here that are more than happy to help (following proper use of the search function beforehand).
If in doubt ask and ask and ask some more and you'll pick it up.
Not long now......
Thats no bad thing Mister!!! lol :xhaha:davidpingu said:To be honest there really is nothing to fudge up with side light bulbs. Just twist the carriers about 90 degrees and out the whole unit comes. The bulb just pops in and out. Only thing to remember with the new bulbs is to try to avoid touching them with your fingers. The oils in your skin transfers to the glass and can shorten the lifespan of them. Having said that if they are LED ones going in then it shouldn't be a problem. I always make a point of using a piece of kitchen towel to hold bulbs though.
Heres a link to that tool set. For the money you'd find it hard to do better - http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_862463_langId_-1_categoryId_255215
No worries, as said you can always ask. But be warned if you let Teegwa near your car too often it will definitely turn purple :xlol:
