Doubt a motor technician would like to be called a tyre fitter mate :nono:

blimey all this over a number plate!!!!!

I do have £5000 if someone would be nice and do the same mods thanks lol:deadhorse:

I think 3/4 size mate, it looks abit odd with the ends cut off

bazza must be the only person on here that doesn't know about clives car, this is what the special edition scoobs should be running and if i do say so this is my favourite scoob after the gobstopper, a nutty daily car that isn't stripped out.:yeah:

You can't get better than a Kwik-Fit fitter, there the boys to trust!!!

Umm seems to be getting a little off topic

Bazza, chill out, we are not picking on you.

These forums/clubs are all about a bunch of guys who all share the same interest and all the guys here are a good bunch of blokes.

You would have done yourself a favour by going to www.gardenplants.co.uk, finding a forum that specializes in "Tulips of Europe" and putting your question in there mate.
Instead you pick a forum full of guys who live for cars/performance/motorsports etc and anyone of us could have answered your question lol .... your funny.

Hey! it's tyre & bald by the way :doubleup:

Ah forget my last comment, like the link mate

I might get myself a nice Clematis..... :doubleup:

Yep just about to spend the best part of £1K on two sets of tyres :doh:

Baz, You are correct in your thinking that the general consensus of owning a limited edition car, would be to keep it as standard as possible. The benefit of this would only be shown if you was to keep the car looking for maybe a future classic or similar to sell on in the future.

We are all enthusiasts here, not the usual boy racer lot that spend a few thousand wrecking what is an already nice car:nono:

Clive decided to start with what is considered to be a very good example of the mark and to persue his own ideas and that of Roger Clarkes as to what could be achieved from such a vehicle. If you do some research clive has done all the modifications, of which there are many and yet still managed to retain the P1 status, to many the car looks like a well kept P1, to us in the know it is a rather special P1.

You need to do some research with regards the mark prior to jumping to assumptions, the P1 does require a little tweaking to make it a safe daily user, even in standard guise. I will let you do the research on that:doubleup:

SouthEastScoobies, we don't like to delete threads or lock them:nono: we prefer to let things run there course:nod: we are a grown up bunch and I state again, Enthusiasts. You are welcome to continue to participate if you feel you want to and be assured you won't find the halfords crew within our mists.

Baz, I hope you take the time to read the forums and get to know the people who participate within the forums and at meets. The knowledge base is varied and we are proud to say we have some of the most respected people in the Subaru community as participating members of this club.

As a new member it would maybe be better for you to re-introduce yourself and start again especially as we all need tyres at some point and you may indeed prove your worth to the club:doubleup:

Sorry I was having a bad day - I was only voice my opinion. Soz for taking thread off topic

Regards

Bazza

No problem. We all have them.

Top man for coming back and saying sorry :mrgreen:

Enjoy the site fella.

No probs Bazza, Takes a man to come clean :doubleup:
