  1. Sorry about the mess in the garage. joe
  2. Sorry forgot to add pics ect. Joe
  3. Is she getting married in Norwitch? I may be able to help you with a classic car. It's just a matter of getting it there as the insurance limits me to 3000 miles a year and i don't really want to use 300 of those up driving it to yours. I have a trailer license but not a trailer suitable for the car. I've done 2 weddings for friends in it already and it worked really well. Just have to take the front passenger seat out se it's easy to get into the back. Joe
  4. Midwales clay centre have been stocking them for the last 6 months. Apparently they've ordered 750,000 of them last week due to cartridge prices rising £10 per thousand in march?? Joe

    Golf GTI

    A friend of mine bought the gti pirelli second hand which is basically the same car as the edition 30 minus the horrible seats. Same engine and got it remapped by vw racing. still keeps the full warranty and its around the 300hp mark. Utterly insane to drive and very expensive to run due to it needing a new pair of front tires every 12,000 miles! Joe

    Golf GTI

    The R32 is actually slower than the scirocco 2.0 tsi. (the same engine in the gti) and far more economical yet to mention cheaper to tax and insure. That is from a rolling start though. The 4motion is brilliant for grip though. After a in house remap by a vw dealership to 240hp has the same power but minus the weight of the 4 wheel drive and and 3.2 ltr engine. Joe
  7. Hi, I'm shooting Gamebore supergems at the moment. I get on really well with them and pattern better than Superbs through my gun, for £146 a thousand 28 gram also a bargain. i was wondering if anyone else shoots these or has any opinions on them? They don't seem to be widely available which surprises me? Joe
  8. I've been offered more than £1500 in cash by two gun shops for it. I would be willing to accept an offer closer to £2000 . many thanks Joe
  9. I've been advised that by using a mx2005 it will keep my head upright and therefore protect me be from a bad neck later in life? Also the elevated rib alows me to see the bird far earlier. Joe
  10. I am selling my much loved trap gun in order to help fund one with an adjustable stock. The top barrel is fixed full and the bottom barrel adjustable. It comes with three adjustable chokes for the bottom barrel. A 3,4 and 8. The gun has been well looked after and is in excellent condition considering it's age. I'm not entirely sure but i think it's 24 years old. It has Perazzi's pro rib. I am prepared to RFD the gun. £2000, Manchester Joe
  11. I know it's fine for it to be bought outright by a company and the bills thereafter paid by an individual. In regards to leasing i assume it's still ok if it's classed as a company car and in your contract. Tbh though i've never dealt with leasing due to you only being able to claim half the VAT on non commercial cars. Joe
  12. Just a quick addition we always buy ex demo's. You can still claim the VAT back on them and they're normally a thousand or so pounds cheeper. I'd stay away from leasing. Also since the touran isn't classed as "works or agricultural" you'd only be able to claim half the VAT back. Joe
  13. You have to be very carefull what you claim through your company. We have a few on our companies books. Insurance wise its ok and so is fuel but servicing and MOT we have to pay out of our own wallet. Thats on the company cars. On the works ones such as the hilux's everything can be claimed through the company. Just be very carefull and i'd recommend you check with your accountants first instead of other peoples experiences. Joe
  14. Hi, I've seen these m4 and m16 copies quite a bit. A shop about 15mins drive from me specialise in them. Nice looking rifles. I had to pick between on of those and a remmington 700 in .223 I chose the remmington. http://www.nwcustomparts.com/ar15/spikes.h...ry/built_07.jpg joe
  15. [quote It'll be interesting to see how the H&K version will be priced . . . I've asked at the gun shop i use to get a price and potential order date. According to the 2010 shooting show in the states they're retailing for $700! So around the same price as the gsg version. I fully agree with you on the cleaning part. If you look after your gun, it'll look after you. Joe
  16. Sorry i misread your post. They're being released at the end of this month according to their site. I don't know why but i've always liked mp5's. So if H&K are willing to put their name on in i'd assume the quality would be their? We're quite fortunate on our land that the vast majority has no footpaths running through it and therefore no one legally should be in the vicinity. I do fully understand what your saying in regards to disrupting the peace and causing unnecessary distress. I am a member of a rifle club and if it's a bit risky using it in the day i may just resort to having it as a range gun or lamping gun at nite for the rabbits. Joe
  17. That's taken me slightly by surprise. The reviews i read all seemed to be positive. But a review can't beat everyday use. I think i'll steer away from gsg and look at the colt, sig and s&w offerings. Are these far more reliable? I know with semi's they're reliable to level that they're cleaned, but is the build quality any good? Joe
  18. Hi, I was planning on spending some of my summer wages on a gsg-5. Thought it would be ideal as a bunny basher? Any thoughts or suggestions? http://www.targetsportsmagazine.com/featur...gunswunderkind/ Joe
  19. Hi, I'm selling my winchester 101 xtr. It comes with what i assume is its original leather and four chokes with key. Its in good condition but has sustained some damage which was professionally repaired. The but of the shotgun split. U can see where on the pics. I had a kick eez pad fitted to it last year. I'm based in manchester and will only sell face to face due to the but. £500 Joe
  20. Hi, Sorry. Realised this has already been covered and can't find how to delete the thread. Sorry. Joe
  21. When i catch the train to Uni i sometimes take another shotgun down. We have pump action only skeet comps ect :-) Having phoned my train operator they informed me it was in violation to carry a offensive weapon on their trains. But the kind gentleman did follow that up with if the ticket inspector doesn't know what it is then there's no problem :-) I therefore transport my shotguns in a breakdown hard case. I also bought two fender guitar stickers off ebay to put on the side of the case. Btw do you need to carry your license on you when transporting shotguns or is it like a drivers license where you have 72hr's to produce it at a police station? Joe
