Motors Chat Thread Round 3

Alanstrainor

1.This thread is for motoring topics which you feel are not worthy of starting a new thread for, banter from a meet or general motoring related chit chat.

2.No lonely hearts (This is not a personal dig at anyone, it's how we feel is the best way to describe what we want to avoid. )

3.Keep it clean.

4.The Motors charter applies.

Had to create a new thread, as the last one was on the fritz!

Have fun everyone.

That was taken in Dublin.

Pay day yesterday so I'm naturally broke today

Ordered new wheel arch liners + clips / screws because mine are loose and rubbing off the tyres (clips were €30 from a dealer in the UK), new top dash vent trim because it's lifted (common fault apparently), mirror screw cover because after I tightened the mirror itself - it fell off (whoops) and new clean scratch free reg plates and H4 Xenon lights + 501's that are clear instead of blue to top it off. Also have the rear window cable / regulator to change and the new red Fiat badge for the back.

Finally, I've found alloys I like and that I think ya'll will approve of for the GP - just gotta wait until next pay day

Northside of Dublin had a fair bit of snow when I left around half seven. Enough to give my 4 day old Eagle F1s trouble on the roundabouts anyway. Central Dublin is fine though. The snows falling, but there's too much traffic movement for it too stick or even cause trouble.

Just coming off the slip for Blanch earlier on the M50 in the far left lane when an Avensis went hooring up the outside lane..... then saw the traffic in front and buried into the railing.... Tore the side off his motor.... Not two minutes later and another Avensis, hammering up the same lane ploughs into the back of a Golf.

Idiots speeding in snow at least entertain me somewhat.

And they say the Avensis and the people who drive them are boring :rolleyes: :pac:

Seen that being taken away on a recovery truck as I came by it there alright, their stupidity is not just limited to when its snowing though!

Glad I decided to avoid the mess that is the M50 and work from home today so!

Passed a Qashqai / Passat crash myself bypassing Blanch today.

Not bad actually.

Radio is wrong.

Most of it's just slush or melted now and you get the odd crawler at 20kph but it's perfectly fine.

Overblown as usual.

ebay, they were cheap too. There's a few different options for them.

http://www.ebay.ie/itm/BMW-E46-3-SERIES-01-03-COUPE-CRYSTAL-BLACK-INDICATORS-/300707540355?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item460390ed83#ht_1905wt_1200

They were the ones I got, but like I said, there's a few different options. They did the job though.

Alanstrainor

Oh, and if you're going down that route of changing lenses, don't forget to pick up some silver indicator bulbs. Looks kind of silly with the orange bulbs in them. Should only cost a couple of quid.

I suppose if she was so clean inside you'd expect interior pics.

Sure 400 quid is only a few nights out.

If I had the money I'd turn it into a track car.
