Re: V6 exige

That pic caught my eye as well in EVO. At 1st glance thought it was an Exige with a lengthways V6 in there. i thought the Hennessey looked more different but looking at that pic it is just a Exige with a couple of feet in front of the rear wheels. Mind you that is in the eyes of an Elise owner so p...

Re: Paypal

I was looking at paypal today thinking it might be a safer way to accept payment but reckon as a receiver of a payment i would be hit with a 3.4% charge (assuming the payment is not family / gift related !). So for selling my 111r via paypal would cost me over £500 :shock: Got a supposed buyer who w...

Re: tar spots

Was a bit worried at first when i used tardis then a clay bar and didn't wipe off the tardis enough as the clay bar just smudges into a sticky goo but does come off easily...

I don't want to start experimenting on something so visible and make it any worse. Most common idea I have seen on the web is to run a raz...
