How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

...........door. There you go guys - company car photo time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Well....................... I havent got it yet cause I 'aven't finished paying for mine. More importantly, how high is the shelf and is there a window?. And is the spoon woodern or metal?.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Right then, lets post it here so we don't get told off again :lol:

Did you get your scooby through a PLP as I did Steve? I have paid myself the extra money for the last 4 1/2 years as a dividend to get the tax down on it and claimed mileage.

This one I am doing the same thing virtually but with a bit more in the kitty. Although I am flat out buying it and not going down a lease purchase with maintainence option. I have allowed more than enough to cover that.

I did think about a New Cooper S myself, but when this came along at the silly price it is, I just couldn't ignore it.

As I said in the other post, it is fully loaded with extras, leading me to think it is probably an ex demo car.

You never know, I might not even like it................... but I doubt that.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

And the answer about the spoon is.

If the spoon is coated in semi-fluid grease then you can pass it through the gear box that is stuck in the middle of the wall next to the door.

Simple as that really.

Yes mate, similar type of deal. I had leased my old WRX and it seemed crazy to return a car after two years that had only done 12000 miles, when I actually would have kept it. So this time I opted to buy it, knowing I want to keep hold of it. Once its bought, it'll then be mine to do as i please with.

The M3 is a lovely motor. As much as I love the scooby, sometimes its nice to jump into something else - makes you realise how quick the scoob is and you dont take it for granted!

Next time though, i'm not too bothered about owning something. I will prob just lease a GTi/cooper s for a year.

As for the spoon :cuckoo: :cuckoo: :cuckoo: :cuckoo: :cuckoo:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Ive got a 320 m sport company car,and the scoob feels like a rocket compared to the bmw.
Great car,smooth and fully spec'd but get blown away by most deisels.



Assuming the spoon is the model chromium then simply shimmy on up to the wall and throw the twangle end first.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Just make sure the indicators work Steve, cos i have yet to see a bmw with indicators that work :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

And make sure you get the parking permit that bmw supply.....so you have the right to park any fcuking where you want :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

LOL at the Duke!!!

Yes Martyn! It's the twangle end that needs to be coerced through the gabbin bulge. You were quite right. Bit of KY on the bugle snuff, and a light prod, and the shelf will stay upright through inclement weather.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

But isn't the twangle deemed irreversably scantlethwad by inclement weather?

I would have thought that you would be much better off by reconstituting your worrup with rum and leaving it in a dark place for the winter............ like Sittingbourne?

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

I hope you haven't gone for the psychic indicators and bellendtronic option that most BMW drivers opt for...

Sorry, just don't like BMW's. Nor the stereotypical drivers of them that you seem to get around my way. Fortunately most of them have now moved over to Volvo XC90's or Audi Q7's because they are BIGGER!

I hope you are very happy with it :D

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

I know what you mean mate.

BMW drivers come with pretty **** reputations. They reckon though that the cocks who previously drove beemers are now in Audi's as you said.

The one thing I am going to enjoy on Sunday is turning up in the Scooby, and telling them that I just need something slower for during the week. I'll keep the quick one for the weekends :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Well I had a 3 beemers before I got the scoob :fight:

and I still like driving them every so often because there is just something about them :rant:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

At least you saw sense [img]http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n22/RobVXD/Gifs/lol4.gif[/img]

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

I have always liked the sound of a beemer. Really nice engine note on them.

It's like all cars though, Volvo drivers have a bad rep because some people drive them so poorly, some scooby drivers are complete donuts and everyone gets tarnished with the same tag?

But..................................... as Rob Said.............................................. . you eventually saw sense ;)

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Oi!

Watch what you say about Volvo drivers! :wedgie:

I'm doing my best to get them a NEW reputation! Should've seen the look I got from a lad in a chav mobile as I went past and left him :rofl: Mind you, these D5's don't half shift ;)

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Volvos are cool matey 8-) We both come from the T5 generation, when Ridell and Harvey were tearing the BTCC apart in T5 estates :norty:

The problem with Volvos is the few that are "Captain Slow Middle Lane Hogger @ **** all MPH" that irritates people. :nod: Then everyone who says they drive a volvo gets looked at as if they were one!

BMW drivers, it's nice and easy with.......... That's why there is such good storage in the centre consol on a beemer............................... so that when the driver gets in, they can store their common sense and courtesy in there! ;)

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Nice car Steve,

Hopefully you wont need any SPANNERS. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Is it because they make the scoob feel soooooooooo much better Cath?

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Not a very happy bunny :sadno:

Got a phone call at 10.00am yesterday morning from Karl @ BMW T/Wells. Some other ****er put a deposit down on Saturday night at 8.00pm.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Bummer :(

Means you can get yourself a sensible car instead :D

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Oh mate what a ****e, missed the sushi for fook all.
I always say it is meant to be mate. Now get real and go for a skyline or your favourite NSX :yeah:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Been looking on the Paragon website this morning :nod:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Now your talking

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Seen 5 that I like including a 911 turbo.

The Turbo is to say the least "pushing the bounderies" price wise, but is ultimately tempting.

Will be going over there to talk to them at some point.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Steve you really do have bad car taste dont you....was you having an off day when you brought the scoob? :rofl: :rofl:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

I was having a shocker! :rofl: :rofl:

Because of the fact I am buying it instead of leasing and giving back, I am after something half decent that I can enjoy driving in.

I hasten to add, these are all second hand that I'm looking at! No silly money passing hands here :nono:

The first thing I will be doing (this will look good on the back of the Carrera 2 I am interested in for sure) is getting my sticker guy to make the following sticker, with a smiling "Pig E" at the end.

MY FAST CAR IS A SCOOBY!

Ideally I would like to stick it on while I am picking it up :norty:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

RS4 you know it makes sense :norty:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

I have been looking :nod:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

For sure Rich
Trouble then,the RS4 will be quicker than the Scoob,Superb car though.

Get a luxury cruiser mate,then you got best of both worlds.

You could re-mortgage and get an RS8

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

2007 T25. 'nough said. There was one at goodwood on sunday. Awesome, just knowing what lies beneath.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Yep,saw that was nice,also RB320 was nice

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

If you get a Porker you could jump between that and the scoob and switch between being a Cock to a Chav in less time then it take you to get to 60 :boom:

Get the ultimate Wagon and get the RS4 Avant....show the wagon squadron how to really fly.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Couldn't agree more Scott :yeah:

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

Heck Worzel,you might aswell get a caravan to hook on the back :doh:

You would not be disapointed with a BMW,Mine is 18 months old now,fully spec'd 320 M Sport,Covered 39,000 Not fast but very nice to drive.

Re: How to place a spoon on a shelf where there is no connecting
 

I have seen a stunner too. Trouble is they are not available at the money I'm looking at (not without **** loads miles on them :roll: )

I reckon this week for looking and decide after the weekend.

I might post up the choices for some opinion.

Martyn, have thought about a cruiser :nod:
