Was it a green van??

I meant to post earlier, there are a few Police Traffic monitoring vehicles about at the mo, so make sure the car's are legal lads!

Luckily they weren't fully set up when i flew past this morning. But they had a monitor in the back of the van, so it may have been an insurance / tax / mot check aswell!

My tyres are legal, but my plates aint! Luckily i've got legal plates in the boot, but nothing to stick them on with! Maybe i should buy some stickies!!

Pah! Be gone with you, Honda driver!

DC5's are sweet! need slamming on coilovers though obviously!

it was a white unmarked renault traffic? with black tinted rear fold out windows (which were closed), looks identical to the one that used to man the end of penarth road at the start of every month doing people for tax etc, however that one was normally acoupanined by police traffic cars and motorcycles, this van was alone but went round the roundabout and came back up and saw a police motorcycle going the other way

what u reckon?

 

[Martyn]

DC2 still owns the DC5 DC5s are still a bit soft!

 

[davidol]

a guy i used to work with owned a DC2 and i went out with him a couple of times in it, raw as fook car, awesome fun but difficult day to dayer me thinks, DC5 is a bit more of a livable car, prefer the bulker shape too, like i said espeically slammed on coilovers

 

[Forbez]

Old mans car!

 

[PhilW]

Dave, seen you this mornin pullin into the garage in Llantrisant.

 

[Jonzy]

I spotted some yellow cupra on top of a deserted mountain last week..... looked like a dogger.

And theres another black one about, had a crack at me in Nantgarw, till I smoked him - literally

 

[Forbez]

I noticed a yellow one in risca the other day, and i know of another blue one, and silver one local to me.

 

[rogers]

iv seen that black one about, came right up behind me to my shock of c'ing another tryed to overtake lol bye bye it was standard! my mate has a dc5 the white one that was in westec and it is rapid, brembo's and 240bhp hell of a mixture, and he can drive it, i aint into jap crap but that car has to have crediit! if it is where i am thinking dave between bosch and the castell mynach pub, on that dual i have seen a camera van there a fair few times,

vibra technic mounts came today! well happy not wid the invoce tho! lol

 

[davidol]

nah other way matt towards tesco's, i was heading to bosch but was early so decided to head to the petrol station towards tescos to grab some breakfast!

didnt see you phil, where bouts were you?

seen another black one in fairwater this morning, obviously my mates new one is black in taffs well too

phil do you fancy a PC'in session soon, my paintwork feels as rough as matts haircut, needs to be sorted, tried phoning round the motor factors this morning including GSF and euro, none of um can get a foglight for mine so it looks like im gonna have to bend over and take it from white dove

 

[davidol]

oh yeah and matt any chance of getting your mate to take me for a blast in his DC5, im yet to go for a spin in one, i might think its crap!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Any meet dates set? Too many pages to trawl through to find out. Plus im lazy.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

A bugeye Sti just got shown the way. Another addition to the list..

 

[rogers]

ye probably dave it is awesome, i have seen the camera van both sides mind, but probably the tax van or something esle, fitted my new engine mounts tonight, wot a difference! fair play, exhust tomz,

 

[Jonzy]

What difference?

 

[rogers]

they are really good, much more responsive, specially through the bends, bit of vibration when idealing but i can deal wid that, iv only replaced two of the 3, the rear two and that has made a hell of a difference, forgot to mension one of my rear ones was split and recked when i took it off,

 

[Jonzy]

Ive been thinking about it too, typical seat **** job to replace?

 

[rogers]

well it was ovious to me that one of mine was fu#ed slit exhust and fook me it was rocking about so perfect chance to buy them expensive for wot they are, was so close to the brakes and they just pushed them away that little further!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

My front one snapped clean in half. Nightmare to replace. The whole front end pretty much has to come off bumper, slam panel rad the lot
