    2019 Supra GTS

    So I umm'd and ahhhh'd for a while, test drove the hell out of a few cars and felt that this was a suitable toy: I've got the Patrol V8 that will be getting some mods after Christmas, exhaust/bar/wheels so that will satisfy the urge for a V8 grumble. The Supra will be getting...

    2020 Nissan Y62 Patrol Series 5

    Felt it was about time to upgrade the Patrol of Doom to something more functional so a brand new Patrol it was! Still have a load of modifications to sort, tyres/lift/bar/camping etc 5.6litre petrol V8. Going to need an exhaust on there too. :D Obvious first question, fuel, 120litres in...

    Fool's GU4500 Patrol of DOOM.

    Thought it might be entertaining throwing up a thread dedicated to my hideously inefficient family beater. When we were looking at emigrating down here we were set on shipping our old car, 2005 Discovery 3 HSE, but when push came to shove it just wasn't worth spending £6000 to ship a £10-12k...

    Fools Disco3 HSE

    Thought I'd start one, seeing as it will of course get modified a bit.. It's a 54 plate Discovery 3, 59k on the clock and everything works!! For now at least.. More comical pictures of it next to the sh1tbox once it's back from a full service and cambelt change.

    Increased Premiums, 2010 Statistics.

    Thought it would be prudent to post this as it will go someway to removing the endless threads regarding insurance prices and the rise recently. Click for source

    Sureterm Direct, any experience?

    As above, comparethemarket keeps bringing them up as cheapest to insure 4x4's, eg price of £650 (in a BD postcode) with nearest competitor at £1400. Have done the usual google, found a fair few review sites, however can't be too sure these are not the usual spam dodgy companies throw out in...

    Pilfered from Garrett: If you can look past the marketing blurb it might be interesting. Original Here Turbo Tech 101 ( Basic ) How a Turbo System Works Engine power is proportional to the amount of air and fuel that can get into the cylinders. All things being equal, larger engines...

    Boosted EP3 = 314bhp 204lbft

    Will skip the NA stage and just jump to where I am at now. Few pictures, it needs a fair bit of TLC on the outside. Which will come in time. Parts laid out ready for the trip to TDI-North: Tuned at TDI-North: And that's how she stands at the moment...
