Re: Porker lovers

Stuart in Stirling is very good, and has carried out work for me recently at reasonable rates . I'm amazed you could get your car booked in. I tried to book the 993 in for a service a few months ago and called him countless times (always leaving a voicemail message) and emailed too (where he replie...

Re: Cycling - NLC

Anyone signed up for the Etape Caledonia next year? I've entered, never done anything like the distance before and only bought my road bike about 3 months ago so it'll be a challenge. Hoping my fairly decent fitness level and mountain biking help along with a good amount of training :) Scott, on the...

Re: Come on Alonso....

No surprise really, the footage was shown during the race and mentioned several times by Croft and Brundle but the stewards appeared to ignore/miss it. If it had been investigated during the race and Vettel had been given a penalty it could've handed the championship to Alonso. I do think if it chan...

Re: Evo Car of the Year 2012

production is up and running, and the first cars are expected next week - rather than in 2013, as some have speculated. Lotus has even shuffled the schedule to prioritise customer cars over showroom cars, we're told. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=26581 It's all talk though Cam...
