I served in the army for a number of years. Loved the soldiering and the trips abroad. Hated the jobs worth muppets i had to work with. Decided it wasn't for me when I was told they wouldn't promote me, because I wouldn't bully the younger lads. Has the potential to be the best job in the world... but its full of wa*****s Now, im in my 3rd year of uni :)

hi all, so a mate suggested I should paint my calipers when I upgrade my discs and pads. therefore, anyone know of any decent caliper paint? not chosen a colour yet, but will most likely be matt black. Anyone any suggestions?

I'm on 87k, :) I think I will keep it for a few years, then get a newer model :)

I'm not sure what a microwave alarm is. But if your gf's ex is vandalising your scooby, surely contacting the feds would be a better idea?

I need some of them! where do you get them from? found some, wow 50 quid for a set...

I never actually got this issue sorted, as I don't really wanna leave it with the garage that caused it in the first place. But the steering wheel not being straight is doing my head in. Tempted to take it down to the Scooby guys in Sheffield.

ah I love rain x, amazing stuff!

I got my spare sorted today :) Now have a proper 17inch spare alloy in the boot. Mag to grid that crappy space saver. Also popped in a new K and N air filter.

I use firefox with adblock plus. So I didn't even know there was ads on this site :)

I'd go for Silver myself. Although, blue would certainly make it stand out!

that is a very nice car! Wonder what the price would be?

What about something like this... Clickerty Click

yeah he specifically asked me if i was members of the owners club. then he went of the speak to the "underwriter" - lol whoever that guy is, but he sounded like he was in the know.

Flux offered me 950 for my legacy, got it elsewhere for 550. Was a nice chap on the phone though, :)

I bought a used alloy off ebay (for a spare) just need to clean it up and get a new tyre on :) I also bought a K an N Air filter, will get it fitted on Saturday :)

well, i can't speak for the 3ltr 6 speed Legacy, but i have a 2ltr 5 speed and its an absolute gem :) I'd love a 3ltr version, although the insurance would be extremely expensive for me.

ooh, I do this every other weekend :) Rinse the car off, then wash with Autoglym shampoo using the two bucket method. Then I will dry the car using a microfiber cloth. Then polish with autoglym resin polish and buff off with another microfiber. I'll then wax on and buff off with another microfiber. I use this wax by the way, its amazing stuff :) edit, sorry this is a better video I also use either auto finesse iron x or Autoglym alloy wheel cleaner on the alloys. And Rainx glass cleaner for the windows - I also add some rainx to the windows too. Its nice seeing the water beading on the paintwork.

main dealers charge a fortune for stuff. I nipped into my local scooby dealer a few weeks back after another alloy to act as a spare. They wanted 270 quid for just one alloy! Found a used one on Ebay for 50 quid. Hope you get it sorted OP, but does your friend really need two keys?

I wouldn't have a clue where to get one fitted or anything. But have you checked Larkspeed for a new clutch? http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?c=BRAKING&s=category

I drove to and from work :) And got my MPG up to 31.2 haha I can't help but think my MPG would be a bit higher if i had decent brand tyres on it. It came with new set of cheap "event" tyres.

hi all, Would it be possible to have a "forum chat box" on the forum? I think it would make a pretty decent addition to the community. Easy to just live chat to other online users, be pretty handy I think.

sweet dude, welcome to the forums :)

The missus hoovered mine whilst i washed, polished and waxed her Astra :)
