Hi there mate where are you from?

Theres a place in Birmingham Erdington that replace cabriolet roofs my brother had his done about 3 years ago cost him nealy Â£650 iirc but that one was a mohare one (spelling).

ishturbs

no way bro that thing was a beast on the rollers.

As you said things change and you have to adapt i too have been thinking about selling up but im finding it hard to part with it

ishturbs

Why do people mutelate cars in this manner

ishturbs

somebody needs to be shot.

ishturbs

The car will be smoother, but you'll use more fuel as that 6-8 minutes of cold idling is fuel completely wasted. I get about 70-75 miles to a Â£20 worth of fuel this way which may sound shite to some people but id be lucky to see 60 miles on Â£20 pounds if i were to turn the key and drive off after...

ishturbs

Well i start the car and huff and puff on a ciggi which takes about 6-8 minutes. I then drive off the car feels alot smoother for 1 and also seen that i save on fuel were as if i start the car and drive off after 10 seconds the car feels lumpy and also use up more fuel. wether this is the right way ...

Best things come to those who wait and it looks like the wait is worth it

Is that a that a original turbo or a conversion?

ishturbs

Glad to hear that they made it out in one piece.

Just means one less yellow rover on the road

ishturbs

ishturbs

My first one did look like the bottem one and it was sh1te.

Looked like some one with a beard and a pipe knocked one out in his garden shed.

ishturbs

Welcome to the 200 club. Well there abouts

Nice colour for the 420 and she looks clean and rust free

ishturbs

How much for the boost gauge?

ishturbs

Yeh as said Gary 420 Gazza.

Viking spares Kings norton.

Although i found metro man to be a bit expensive compared to viking.

But I love it too - the "f*ck me it's a rover" look you get as you accelerate away from people is priceless and I find it very comfy too!

ishturbs

Thats some funny sh1t Benji.

Nearly happened to me last week was driving down conagre road in tipton when a big a$$ lorry came bombing down the other way but i clocked it and as soon as i did the window up the bugger drenched my car.

ishturbs

Kept up with scooby once. I was bumper to bumper with him on the straights but he clarted me on the round abouts.

ishturbs

Were about in birmingham are you mate maybe when we get a date sorted you might want to bring it to the RR day and put it on the rollers.

Then you will know for sure how many ponies your pushing.

Get some pics up of the car mate
