Pirelli Cinturato P7 - set of four

Selling a set of Pirelli Cinturato P7 tyres - 225/55-R17 97Y. These are Audi original equipment tyres, removed from a one year old A6 when the alloys were upgraded. They've been stored in the dark for the last year and basically look brand new. I can email through photos if anyone needs them. The RR...

Re: Car Transportation

My boss did a load of research recently before he moved his Ferrari, and subsequently gave me the details of Aberdeen Vehicle Transport on 07751 272267. He was very happy with the service and the price he got if that helps? :thumbsup

Re: Blue S1 on Tarland Road

Yup, I was in the 4S. You were past in a flash - must have been my (poor) memory filling in the blanks! Was looking great in the sunshine btw. Enough to send me home to look at S1's on pistonheads yet again...

Blue S1 on Tarland Road

So flashed past a tidy azure blue S1 on the Tarland Road this evening and wondered who it was? I was in the 911 and despite being past in a flash, I thought I recognised the number plate (S87 xxx) as the one I had on my first S1 years ago. I know it changed colour from green to white after Andy G ha...

TAG Heuer Carrera

Decided to sell my TAG Heuer Carrera if any one is in the market? It's a black face, 39mm case and a black leather strap, so a nice subtle auto. I bought it in 2011 as a more subtle alternative to my Rolex, but then never wore it and in fact I doubt it has been on my wrist more than two dozen times ...

Re: Roofer - Aberdeen

Good luck getting a roofer in Aberdeen, I've tried a couple of times and the half dozen I spoke to weren't interested in anythingbsmall (I was looking to have light tunnels installed so not that small!). Most wouldn't even quote - the expectation was that they would 'accept' my workscope but if I wa...

Re: Gas boiler engineer Aberdeen

I can recommend AR Will on the North Deeside Road in Cults. Plumbers and sparkies - always helpful, never been too busy and pretty reasonable. Proper old school family business. My family has used them for thirty years :thumbsup

Re: Scottish Italian Car Day 2015

I guess Hopetoun House was getting too expensive, was always a good family day out. Unless I'm mistaken, this isn't related to Paul Santoni's Hopetoun House Italian car days - pretty sure this one has been running for years in parallel. Hopetoun was apparently pretty high maintenance and Paul was l...

Re: White '11'plate Evora S...on a trailer

Suspect it might belong to a chap on my floor, Iain. I'd heard he'd just bought one - hopefully arriving and not being recovered though :?

Re: 'Mailing' alloy wheels and tyres

Did they collect today then? Last time I used Paisley Freight they didn't show up for the three booked collections which caused untold amounts of inconvenience. Ended up having to drive the wheels twenty miles to the depot to send them out. They turned up to collect them two days later after having ...
