Costs

Do you have any guide on costs and level of security James Harry, hi. Security is pretty good - it's brickbuilt, with heavy duty roller shutters and plate metal doors. Padlocks are v heavy duty. Access is from the open front yard, directly on the main road, and well lit, so nowhere to hide. It has ...

Anyone need to store a car?

So, I have a small garage business, amongst other businesses, and I'm thinking at the moment of taking on premises, near Ely. Now, there's a lovely big farm warehouse, with lots of room, that's perfect for me, but I can't quite make the numbers stack up at the moment. So, here's the proposal. Would ...

I'll speak to a couple of the chaps about ramp access for you, and come back to you in due course.
Thanks - happy to pay as it's a semi-commercial project, so not expecting any freebies.

Hi James I used to have a unit near the race track but I gave that up about two years ago :nod: No comments about how long you've been away then ;) What sort of access/use did you need? (length of time and facilities etc). The reason I ask is that I may know of a way around this for temporary use. ...

Shared Garage

Hi all, haven't logged in for a while. Cerbera gone. XKR come and gone. 911 come and still here!

Silly question - didn't members used to have access to some sort of shared garage/workshop facility??

Re: Track car for sale

Due to my Cerbera engine rebuild, Cadwell looks like being my last outing in my track car - it has to go: It's an E30 325i, with lots done to it. Spec: E30 Saloon (better weight distribution than coupe) Full V5 and paperwork, and still road legal Fully stripped out, including perspex windows, remov...

400 at the wheels seems a pretty good gain James, you must be delighted? Was that a 'seat of the pants' dyno or based on previous engines worked on? I know the V8s are capable of great gains with improved breathing but that is a big gain. Great news :thumb: Is this engine builder based near you? I ...

I think what he was referring to is incitement - that is a one way street. In my mind though all religion should be banned. True. On the last point. :) Incitement - how so? I thought his text of 'abusing people' was quite clear. But in any case, incitement is certainly not a one way street. Abu Ham...

More traffic cops and cops out on the streets.. This country has managed to slide into a real hole when it comes to justice. Only in the UK can you be arrested for for abusing a coloured/ non christian/immigrant/whatever person ( for whatever reason - not that I would condone such) but that person ...
