    Double Clutching

    Hmm, can't think of a single valid reason for doing this on a public road in a modern car. Only ever used double clutching in circumstances the Constabluary would not approve of. Heel and toe, I do confess to having used on the road... emergency stops; well I do enough miles that I get to...

    One of my toys :)

    Nice ride 2fast, I think that's the best colour I've seen. I currently have an '01 Transalp with full luggage for touring and commuting. So, there's at least three of us... ;)

    Who's got a clean licence?

    Never had a point, never had a fine. Had a car licence since '86 and a bike licence since '00. Use available power appropriately and safely as often as possible :cool: Just lucky I guess

    My Nissan Skyline R34 GTT

    Damn! That's a nice ride J, see a lot of TLC has gone into that, respect is due8). Don't suppose you see much more than 20mpg. Worth it in smiles per miles any day :bigsmile: RW

    Faux fur seat covers anyone

    :confused: You haven't been visiting Chavland have you Waynne? Personally, I think covers are up there with bolt on tea tray rear spoilers, bumper stickers and furry dice. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that but you can guarantee the other thing they all have in common is...

    reliable turbo cars

    Hi Yul, I think the sentiment may be somewhat outdated with 'modern' cars. I myself have an Impreza turbo with about 110,000 miles on the clock and it's runs just fine. Even though I do take every available opportunity to use as much as possible of the availbale power, it fits in with what...

    Subaru Impreza WRX STi

    Hmmm... still not feeling the love. Especially when you compare it to the new Evo. Not saying I'd sell my Subaru to buy a Mitsubishi, but at the moment, I won't be chopping it in for a hatchback either...:blink1:

    Re-mapping?

    Hi WRXash, 330bhp should be no bother without having to modify any internals from what I've learned through owners and clubs. For a local remap, check these people out www.rstuning.co.uk I don't know anything about them other than they are in Leeds. Cheers ;)

    Driving clothes

    Oakleys and a big grin :cool: Nothing to do with image, the shades are because I can't see in daylight (slight problem when driving) so much so that for the bike, I have a crash helmet with built in shades like pilots have.

    Best and worst brakes

    Best brakes I ever used were on a Porsche 996 at Brands :toung: , for my own cars, the Scooby is definitely the best I've ever owned. The worst had to be the Mk II Cortina I tried to restore in my youth; would have stopped quicker if I'd opened the door and put my foot out:embarrest:

    bikes ehh?

    If it has an engine and moves fast, they'll be an excuse to love it:bigsmile: I'm into cars and bikes equally but only got into bikes because commuting into London is such a pain in the ar@. The bike does 40 minutes regardless of traffic, the car can go the wrong side of 4 hours!!! And if...

    car list

    Morris Marina, 40 shades of blue, £300, sold after a year for the same. Austin Allegro, canary yellow, hideous, slow and couldn't handle. So much for buy british. Mk II Cortina, wanted to do a restore, learnt a lot, ran out of talent. Vauxhall Chevette, reliable, slightly more fun, sold to my...

    My first scooby

    Welcome Marcscoob, There are soooo many things you can do to the Scooby it'll make youwallet hurt and your head spin. Among the more common and straight forward things to be played with you could go for: Swap the air box for an induction kit. K&N57i and Green are very popluar but if you...
