VX has been sitting for 3 weeks. Do I brave the almost certain wheelspinny death of outside or leave it another few days?

    Just took it out for a 15 mile run to keep things fresh. Started fresh as a daisy but stiff gears when it's cold :/ . Definitely worth the run; fun oversteer and a nod and smile from 3 hot chicks. Winner.

    Better if them hot chicks had past on their numbers to you pal. I am thinking of getting my number in vinyl on the side of the VX. For business purposes only of course!! ;)

    Never got round to PMing a mod but I was reporting Smith2012 and WillsDarren2011, 2 fishy looking accounts which are either bot-created or retard-created and exist only to advertise random and irrelevant products while trying to look inconspicuous

    I'm confused. If you get on the BA future pilot scheme, do you have to pay back the £84k? And £1k a month foor 7 years? :O

    Sorry! I have to pay £84k during training but after finishing you start to receive £1k pcm tax free on top of your pay until you receive £84k back. Still not a great deal financially but better than self sponsored!

    Oh ok. So you basically take out a mortgage and they pay it back. That sounds quite interesting.

    It will? Is it only the top bolt that is holding the caliper onto the 'frame' behind the brake discs?

    Sorry should've said, it's a Sony Bluetooth unit. Hope everyone hasn't been messing with their head unit being to find it! On that note infiniti speakers and good head unit is a worthwhile upgrade!

    He flashed heavily and gave a massive thumbsdown as I was overtaking going up a crawler lane. Had been stuck behind a Micra doing 30 in a NSL area >:|
