Mark, that would be great if you can spare the time. I'll call you on the way. I've never driven to Adelaide so have no idea. I've got Sygic in my iPhone but nothing beats the knowledge of a local. I'm planning on leaving Melbourne at around 8.30-9.00am.
Mines the top set on both pallets. The other 2 sets are for a 430 Scud and a 360. I'm just helping a couple of other club members as you do,
Gees I'm glad I've got a UK car with what I have to transport to SA. The boot is bigger. My business partner has an Oz delivered 308 and I have the UK car. We had to use some bits from his car as templates. I'd heard the UK car has a bigger boot so took the opportunity to measure them both today as they were almost next door neighbours. The UK boot appears to be approximately 80mm deeper. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
let me get this straight.........its an import just like phil..........WTF a 308 is the same as an F40 and also the Mclaren F1 and RB8 Red bull F1......all the same windscreens
really? that's very interesting. must be the lack of the cats on the UK car compared to the aus car, just like the idiot you're parroting said. lol..hilarious...so he's wrong again!!! *sigh*
Yep, the rally commences on the 20th of November concluding on the Tuesday 23rd November being the track day. See you there.
So, just confirming why I'm elated about Brett posting those boot photos of his car. My mate Judge Judy says that if you don't tell lies, you don't need a good memory. Here's what Brett's post of his boot proves. 1. we STILL get under phil's skin 2. Phil said that QVs and 328s from UK have deeper boots than the aussie ones because the aussie ones have cats that take up room and hence a shallower boot...so what does he use to compare?? Two cars from the 70s!!! lol..idiot. Neither of them had cats, of course. 3. in his desperation to prove he's right, not only did he choose cars that don't have cats (and never did), he chose two different models!!! (fibreglass and steel) *shakes head* Another post from brett that makes me happy
Look, I don't give a hoot about your issues with Phil PP, I was merely commenting on my car compared to my friends. My car was missing the covers over the rear lights in the boot area and it was then that I learnt there was a difference between height in the boot of the cars. Not sure what your on about regarding fiberglass and steel. Both mine and Davids cars are steel. His is an Aussie car and mines a UK car. One day you'll move on and get a life.
Would be keen for you to expand on this, I'm not sure what you meant by the fibreglass/steel comment??
Not that I'm qualified to read what is on PP's mind (who is FFS!), but maybe this will assist - Fibreglass: A composite material made of fine glass fibres woven into a cloth then bonded together with a synthetic plastic or resin. Steel: An alloy consisting mostly of iron, with a carbon content between 0.2% and 2.1% by weight, depending on the grade.
ok.....so phil didn't put you up to posting that?? not much he didn't. David's car didn't come with cats....so if the boot is deeper on yours on that particular model, then it sure as hell wasn't because of that, was it? I guess poor old phil forgot about that part of his argument. again, liars don't need a good memory.
I first saw this pic and I thought MAN you take your track work seriously! Helping out other guys, thats the way. Aren't you a good boy. Nice, nice. Is his red/tan?
just had my car checked by Marc for the trip to Sadelaide. ..... VERY glad I did, his eye for detail fixed ALL the niggling faults I have put in it. The exhaust leak was fixed in less than 5 minutes by tightening all the manifold nuts (and no, I hadn't touched them PP!!!) The water temp was fixed in 10 minutes (this was my fault ) Not saying what I did but it was a fundamental mistake by someone who should know better and I'm firing him The suspension bushes will need changing when I get back, seems all the track work has flogged them to death .... and I was using the 355 bushes to make it last longer
Had breakie with Goober,i think his new car will pick up FTD,its awesome. He is on a mission,it was flown in.
