I pay £50 a wheel in general.

Welcome to the club.

Why not call a mobile refurb chap? thery will come to home or work and will do 4 wheels in about 5 hours, job done no need to swap wheels ect.

Buy some from eBay and resell them?

I think grey imports will be the only way to get the new cars :(

Smart looking car, was going to buy a hawk eye myself before I got the Hatch.

Welcome to the Club, not my area :(

Looks great. Loads of elbow work for such a small job, bet your right arm looks like popeye's now :D

Could always ask Top Gear if you could borrow the Fiat Panda Limo

2 options, nail varnish remover (acetone) to dissolve the glue, a strong bit of plastic to work behind the letters and prise them of can be messy though. Leave quite a bit of gummy stuff behind which require lots of elbow grease to remove. Or use a hair dryer to warm the glue on each letter and soften it, and a strong bit of plastic to work behind the letters and prise them off. I did actually use my fingers, but it was quite painful. This takes quite a time to do as the glue needs to be quite warm to release it. After you have got them off you will need to T-Cut and polish the area as you can still see the outline of the letters.

the do a stretched Tribeka in the US. Why not just go for the rally slagg? A scoob with all the raly stickers applied.

Welcome to the club

Sleep posting?

Just wondering what everyone does for a living? Me I work for Sky as a Movies scheduler. I basically make sure the programmes run with on time with the correct voice overs, promos, logos and BBFC thingys. I'll say now that I am not technical or customer services and I can't fix you're sky box, just unplug it and leave it 5 mins, plug it back in. If that didn't work call customer services :D That may sound blunt but I get it all the time and wish I could help but I can't sorry :( Also I don't personally know the "Evil Emperor" Mr Murdoch :)

Yeah an engine swap is easy enough to do. I did mine on the driveway. Borrowed an engine hoist and had it out in a couple of hours. If you do get another engine, change the cam belts and tensioners before you put it in the car. Oh and new spark plugs as well as I reckon it's one of the hardest DIY service jobs to do on the car. The access to the plugs is rather hard.

Good luck with the reluctant sale.

Welcome, some great roads around the Brecons, and with the awd you should be showing it the wet roads. wet roads and Scoobs = great fun :)

Damm that's a bugger, shame it wasnt just the thremostat or a leaky hose/Rad :( Pretty sure some one wil come along with a suggestion, Maybe contact a local subaru specalist see if they have any heads.

nice, must be great to have access mto a rolling road whenever you want :)

Go faster stripes?

Shame that, the car for you is out there somewhere, good luck with the hunt.

I'd replace ethe thermostat anyway, I had one that looked like it worked ok when testing in the kettle, but wasn't opening fully when in the car. At £30 its one of the cheaper things to eliminate.
