Niiiiiiice.

Washer jets? :)

Haha, and you're still finding the time to post on here. :)

Any update on the washer jets? :)

Think I need alloy ones (for alloy wheels, yes?).

How do, I'm after some K11 wheelnuts to replace the old locking ones I'm going to use, a, er, slightly destructive technique to remove.

Ah well, the dark-clothed pedestrian staggering drunk down the country lane will be able to hear you coming, so it's his fault for not getting off the road. HID beams are simply not as good as properly designed headlamps. The headlamp casings are not designed for the HID headlights, the...

Just get some H4 Philips +80s, honest. Legal, won't dazzle, and far more effective.

Two screws under the top edge, two screws visible if you remove the ashtray. Wiggle-wiggle-wiggle and it's free.

Don't waste time on HID kits, just get some Philips +80 bulbs - £18 from Ebay, and they're as good if not better than the lights on my Omega. Fantastic range, sharp cutoff on dipped beam so you don't dazzle. One of my pet hates is people with cheap HID kits on cars not designed for them - they...

That'd be great, cheers mate :)

A smooth style of driving is far more important than worrying about what revs you're changing up at. To put it into context, I worked it out that I get between 38 and 40mpg from my 1.3, and I accelerate briskly up to speed using the full rev range, where appropriate. If I was passengering with...

:) Cheers mate.

Are the washer jets available?

Ah, that'd explain a lot. :) After a bit of head scratching and fumbling into the back of my memory, I think they may be from a Corsa? Just with the centre badges popped out and changed? A quick look on t'bay, and the Corsa centre caps are (spookily) also 155mm across... *goes to try to buy...

Are the Super S wheels different to any other? I've not seen any other centre caps with allen-bolts to hold them on...

I'm intending to try a good bit of lube over the weekend... on the throttle cable. I know exactly what you mean, I switch regularly between the Micra and a V6 Omega, the difference is huge - neither is an easy car to drive smoothly (especially when, er, making progress) but I like a challenge... :)

Aye, the SR is much more desirable to be TWOC, and being a bit quicky and "sportier" more likely to be crashed... Three things I can think of are if you have a garage or off-road parking, use it. Then consider a pro-fitted Thatcham 1 alarm - might cost £80 to fit, but it knocked as much as...

Is the back box still on the car? :)
