    That's 250 miles to a 1/4 of a tank.
    Either incredibly economical or a woeful way of estimating :)
    (or a very large tank)


    And one quarter of the tank is guaranteed to be bigger then the other :D

    my astra takes about 4days to even think about getting up off the full line. its all a rapid descent from there :(

    adapters? ive to get adapters for any sort of speaker for my car
    Nah not for the E36 door speakers. I will have to grind off any corners so the speaker is perfectly round. It just clips in.

    Nah I order from the US all the time. The only problem is they are all 2 way speakers so they won't fit into the E36 speaker surrounds.:(

    How about Parts Express?

    They have lots of unusually sized speakers for BMWs:

    Hmm, they seem 2-way too.

    I know I may get in a little trouble for this.....but with all the mention of speakers and amps etc, I have several componants sitting unused in the garage at home if anyone is looking for anything. 12" subs, 6x9's and a couple of amps(1000w and 2400w) and a power cap.

    Top tip of the day: always get insurance changeover confirmations emailed to your account. Turns out the aa never changed my cover to the rover 3 weeks ago despite me having a confirmation email that said otherwise..........also my €15 refund turned into a €35 charge

    In fact not only wasn't it changed there was no record of my account being accessed or my call

    Had a similar experience with them, complete foul up with a change to the policy. Never again, and the volumes of junk mail they send me won't change my mind either.
    Also had the same experience with Quinn.

    So far problems are damaged trim during windscreen replacement, no sign of my refund or or return calls from all glass despite promises from both the aa and Allglass to refund me, due a €15 refund which turned into €35 charge but no insurance when I've been in ireland and all over the uk takes the biscuit.

    I've spoken to the supervisor so lets see what happens

    Would the gardai or uk police agree though at the roadside if I was pulled

    Of course not. Push come to shove though and you get brought to court, no Judge would convict you and you could take your insurer to the cleaners.

    I'm not defending their incompetence however, at least you have something to cover yourself should the sh1t hit the fan. :)

    I know I'd get away but the stress and expense of it all would be worse. No word back yet but I'm interested to see what it will be

    reading about colms trip over the weekend has really made me wanna go back to connemara :( those 3 summers in irish college were great!

    has anyone here camped or bnb'd on inis moir before?

    out of boredom today i carbon wrapped my key and it turned out pretty good. took almost an hour with a scalpel and no lost fingers so all is well. it looks like this but messier $(KGrHqR,!j!E4rl)ogqSBOSEyJ6hqw~~0_12.JPG

    Anything to avoid the studying? Surprised you'd head to inis mor as you can't bring your car over.....

    Speaking of insurance, I had no increase on my policy switching from the 1.4 megane to the 2.0t Saab today. Policy expires mid June. Score!

    My bad, thought it'd be viewable if you weren't logged in. It's a fundraiser for a 7 year old boy who's been diagnosed with Duchennes, a muscle wasting disease.
