Yep, 4S, now with new look wheels and spacers...

I would certainly say that things have improved immensely with the donation service in recent years, and I have plenty of experience to call upon!

I too started donating through the lorry coming...

I've had a couple of E85 Z4s (2.5 Sport & 3.0si), an E89 Z4 (35iS), as well as a 986 Boxster. The Boxster is the better driver's car, but it's a Porsche so comes with larger repair bills and that...

Thanks for all of the comments. The one about FoS gate checks is spot on, as I went on Friday and agree that there was now requirement to show any ID to go with your Covid status.

I'm going to...

I'm seeking a bit of advice from those in the know, or with experience, about the legitimacy of reselling F1 tickets for next week's Silverstone GP weekend. I was planning on taking my F1 mad...

Thanks again for all of the comments. I have the Omega repair card with the watch, which includes the movement serial number (confirming that it is from 1967). It also has a repair number on the...

Thanks Andy. I do actually have the paperwork from the last service for the Rolex, so it doesn't sound like I have much to gain from contacting them.

Thanks for all of the comments, and particularly the advice about the potential problem with requesting an archive extract on the watch. I guess that one option would be for me to have the case back...

Thanks for the advice. Really annoying that Omega have effectively ruined this lovely original watch! I wonder whether there is any comeback on them, as I have the repair reference number from them,...

Here you go...

Hi all, I have been extrusted with my father-in-law's watches for safe keeping and am after a bit of advice about what to do with a pre-moon Speedmaster (105.003 Ed White) that has been refurbished...

Looks great! Enjoy it Matt, as it only gets better once you have had a chance to drive it and try out the various settings ;-).

I'll be honest Matt, I don't actually have the performance exhaust (more to do with cars available at the time that I bought, rather than a choice). However, it's still got a great exhaust note, with...

You can get 400+ miles out of a tank at a push, but usually 350-400 comfortably. It is 98 RON, but that never bothered me, as I always buy V-Power anyway.

I tend to drive in Comfort for most...

Probably, but I'd like to see an M3 beat it in the winter... The C43 is a genuine all-year round performance car, especially if you fit some winter orientated rubber when the temparature drops!

I've had my C43 for 18 months and getting on for 35k miles, so I think you've made a very good choice, as I love mine. Used to do 2k a month on mostly motorways, and would happily achieve 30-35mpg,...

I have no idea how much the machines are, but I know that the disposable pipework that they use for each donation costs over £100! That's a one-use item, and so they only load them onto the machines...

It's now 24 times a year, with a minimum of 14 days between each. Given that they typically take two units of platelets at a time (and sometimes three), that can be a fair few donations.

I am B-,...

Just wondering if there are any other active blood platelet donors on the forum? I've been going in Southampton for a few years now, and have now notched up just over 120 units of platelets (on top...

Took my son this morning, to get his first proper taste of supercars, and he wasn't disappointed! Lots of great cars, although rather a lot of certain models (Astons, R8s), and some decidedly dubious...

The distillery in Hampshire is worth a visit ;-). A variety of options, from just straightforward tour, to a masterclass in cocktail making...

I used to have an S3 (8P), and recently changed to a Boxster S (1994 Anniversary Edition) and am loving it. The weather hasn't been the best to exploit it's obviously roof down attractions this year,...

Had mine about three weeks and am absolutely loving it :D (the weather at the moment helps 8) !!!). I picked up this 2004 Anniversary Edition for £10k, which I was really pleased with, as it is a...

Shouldn't really be worth watching, but there is something strangely addictive about it :? . Bit like American Chopper/Hotrod etc. on Quest :shock: :mrgreen: !!
