  1. Well there is more to a car than AutoX.
  2. I think it's a bit over the top to say " the difference from the 996 to the 7 is about the difference between the 996 and say a big old american sedan" .
  3. I just want to see my speed and revs not move to Vegas. By the way ...how much did you win with the Orange and 2 Cherries?
  4. Yup, I would do that.
  5. The Dixon looks like a Cod that was pulled up from the depths too fast. Ain't exactly smiling either. Great scenery and pics tho. By the way, the red and alum Birkin is a dead ringer for my 85 Caterham, did they do a deal to keep that look?

    Painful to Watch

    http://video.yahoo.com/network/100284668?v=4533761&l=3774753 http://video.yahoo.com/network/100284668?v=4533761&l=3774753 It should work, works for me...
  7. Bob, Yeah I know that. Caterham provides 2 dif heights, the old original height as used for years and taller ones as an option.Honest.
  8. skate tape works well.
  9. I liked the old site better.Nice and simple, like ...oh yeah a 7 (well, like they can be). Was there a reason to change the site, was it broken? This is just like so many other forums now. I would have thought that there would have been discussion within the club and asked members for feedback before such radical changes were made, then again as I was told before:"this is not a forum for free speach,if you don't like it leave"...so what do I know. http://www.californiacaterhamclub.com/chat/ et al..
  10. The biggest problem in the UK is that the cameras are everywhere, I mean everywhere. The majority being fixed position locations (more cost effective ) and they rotate the activations to stop familiarity,lol.
  11. Looks like he got into it : http://jalopnik.com/5111232/csaba-csere-car-and-driver-editor+in+chief-resigns
  12. Hi Kyle, They have had that for a while,looks nice enough tho. I see that yellow Westy in Portland is back up with a buy now of $20K on ebay.
  13. Hank, I think they all follow the same formula, try and be "reality" while making the max amount of cash by plugging the sponsors shamelessly ( the worst has to be Casto at Unique, it is so bad I just watch a bit longer to see who is next). I really think there is a void for an good, intelligent car show on US TV. I know Top Gear UK can be a bit fake at times but compared to the typical US fare it is biblical. The ppl that produce this stuff really insult the intelligence of the viewer, then again I guess they play to the lowest denominator and it comes down to the almighty $.Who knows, just sad to watch.
  14. They also come in shorts and longs. I have short stainless, I kinda like the BB shot up look after the first few dings. By the way I got a rock chip in the eye tonite, chipped my glasses ( I have clams and sidescreens). So much nasty rock crap was put on the roads this winter it is still all over the place and as I said before shit that wont bother you in a car become asteroid nitemares in a 7.
  15. Yeah I saw it last nite, very very staged. But, not as bad as "Unique Whips" with Mr Castro, that is really bad.
  16. Love to take a look, any one know of this place??
  17. Thanks I have it now. http://www.softbitsforsevens.co.uk/
  18. By going on a diet and not being such a fat bastard
  19. I have a Caterham with all the factory weather options(joke) and I am looking to just get a "bimini" or temp wet shield/screen that runs from the top of the windshield to the top of the roll bar.
  20. Jerry, If I come across a pair of WW2 pilot goggles and a helmet and face mask, damn even a warm leather flight jacket I think I will buy one; I mean if we cared how we looked we would not be driving "roller skates" right?
  21. Hi, I hate my speedometer and tach, too small and old (oohh like me). I really have a problem seeing the speedo in daylight let alone at night (err yes good evening officer") So anybody have any luck with anything not too expensive or exotic, this is just for street use , I was thinking is there is a newer more visible drop in or a led set up, looking for ideas really. When I am driving this car I really have a problem trying to see these buggers. And no, I am not going to steal the glasses off the Japanese snipers that shoot at me ! By the way the Rx bottle hold ear plugs not drugs.
  22. Hi Gert, Yeah I here ya, but the flaps look ugly hey? By the way, you have a lot of slots in your bonnet, is that stock? Regards David
  23. I have the ole clams, I guess I like em. Kinda funky late 50's Brit racer look, but they are a bitch for stress cracks on the hanger points, plus when you are working on the car it is all too easy to forget they are papier-mache, (so do a lot of ppl near the car, I had one girl sit on one last year... well I should re-phrase that..I did not have a super model that wanted to pose'''it was a heifer at a car show who felt she could sit on it while her pic was taken by her even heavier boyfriend. I have to say, even tho I like the MG TD look ,(Mr Chapman you little Tea Leaf you) ] By the way, I get rock chips in my hair everytime I go out, damn they put so much grit down this year it,s nasty. I really do not even think about it in my beater but pulling into the center lane to take a left on a little used road feels like I am the target of a group of hidden Japanese snipers. I think if I prefer cycles.
  24. it will not hit the floor,damn that looks tight; not that any of us could hold a dance under the bonnet.
