Anybody interested in an A8?
Sun, 10 Aug 2008 21:51:34 +0100
As subject - I've got an offer pending for the RX7 that involves taking
another silly four-door car in p/x, in which case the A8 would be
surplus to requirements.
It's an N-plate A8 4.2 quattro, around 137k on the clock, Tax and MOT'd
until sometime next year, FSH - yes, up to now - with me having a
couple of s ...

Engine fun
Sat, 9 Aug 2008 21:27:00 +0100
Decided to strip down the top end of the 106 engine todays. It's always had
a slight misfure and it's a bit smokey on startup so decided it was about
time I did something about it.
So after much messing about I wipped the head off today and started
stripping it down. Unfortunately due to the weather and lac ...

Sold the Capri. On the lookout for its replacement now. Fancy something
RWD and old that I can shove a hoofing great V8 in and blast down a
drag strip.

I assume you hang around the Saab forums from time to time.
Have you heard anything about getting rid of the 'Dame Edna' bling on
the front of the current shape car?

Mini Review :- Skoda Felicia (X reg)
Sat, 9 Aug 2008 16:36:15 +0100
**start of review**
It's all the car you actually need.
**End of review**
It's not any of the car you want right enough, but I was very surprised at
just how competent such a piece of junk could be.
This really was the bit where Skoda got it together enough to build a car
that stood a reasonable chance o ...

All this talk of RPM and BHP from NA motors - anyone else noticed the
facelifted SLK is now a 3.5l, 305bhp at 6500 rpm V6, and fits into the 210
quid road tax band with the 7 speed auto (not the manual - that's 400 quid)
And the 200K is no longer the poor relation - 0-62 in 7.6 and 170 quid road
tax...
