    I've got my car up for sale so hopefully it goes before yours 

    If it does I will deffo be in touch been looking for a honda for a while but need to shift mine first all 3 of them ?

  2. smart looking old ride there matey ........................ if I remember correctly the carbs were a soft spot and needed regular balancing I think a few people I knew cobbled the slabside carbs onto them  but if your just going to lightly restore / bring back to it prior glory I would just get them ones ultrasonic cleaned and balanced

  3. I,ve got 2 of the top one both in better condition and i.m.h.o I would not of valued them that high .................................... but then again I may be wrong

    I suppose they are worth what ever amount of money someone wants to pay

    I emailed the supplier in the Netherlands this morning, although Cold Steel is made in the USA, I am buying from within EU.

    and please GIVE HIM A HUGE PAT ON THE BACK from me on becoming a parra :beer:

  5. not being funny LB just asking my thought ......... ............ will it be allowed through customs as I was watching one of those customs at the airport type programmes and they intercepted a shipment of ornamental knives and did not let it in and sent it for destruction

  6. I degreased it with some neat T.F.R [traffic film remover] then fine wire brush in drill then differing grades of scotchbrite pads from course to fine then 0000 wire wool and then solvol cream polish  then mer polish to help seal it

    I wish I had some polishing mops and soap at hand tho . might of been easier / less time consuming but hey ho I didn't so used what I had available

    Are you for real?

    YES are you  ?

    so lets put along these lines ..........

    you and lets say your brother (hypothetical) both get caught for the exact same offence  you earn treble the amount of salary as your brother so at court he gets a fine of lets say ? £700 + costs

    at court for the exact same offence because of your higher earnings you get fined £4000 + costs

    so is that in any way a fair outcome ...........................   I very much doubt it and as for " being in the public eye " statement made by some that should make no difference either .

    there will be loads of people like him fighting problems in their life but without the media interest he made a massive mistake (which can not be defended in any way what so ever) of getting behind the wheel

    there has been numerous cases of repeat offenders committing more serious crimes which in some cases have ended in loss of life that have not been fined a fraction of his fine being famous and earning a high salary is not a crime

  9. FIRST OF ALL I'LL SAY THAT I IN NO WAY AT ALL CONDONE WHAT HE HAS DONE .......

    But I do believe that in my opinion the fine that has been imposed on him is absolutely ridiculous and his legal team should insist on an appeal to get it reduced ......

    Yes he commited a terrible offence  but there has been numerous  cases where some little dope taking scrote high on whatever and drunk as a skunk has been caught after a life risking high speed chase after colliding with multiple vehicles and in some cases badly injuring people and they virtually get a slap on the wrist . With a fine that the tax payer picks up .....

    Unbelievable how badly the judge got it wrong
