  1. 18 feet 4 inches long - 6 feet 3 inches wide - wheelbase 120.39 inches. The Lincoln is in the garage behind the Trans Am. Not the ones that I have had. I had the TA rust proofed before I took delivery of it.
  2. I am not a fan of black, you lose all definition. If going black any style will do.
  3. I don't think it's a rivet, blow it up to full magnification and you can see it's oval in shape.
  4. I like them. I get a little more room between the calliper and the rim, helps when cleaning them.
  5. No, that's for normal load driving. Full load is pretty much 50psi front and rear. My tyres are 255/35 R19 96Y XL.
  6. He's in charge of an accident repair company, That Capri belongs to a chap who has a classic car company who has all of his cars done at my sons place. You say your not keen on 70s cars, This was my 1972 Lincoln Continental Mk 4. Only 7.6 L
  7. A couple of months ago my son was test driving a Capri 3000GT from work and came to show me. That's me in the car.
  8. K reg 1972, Tawney brown metallic, all black interior. Had the engine rebuilt because the oil pump drive sheered off. Always used to run it on five star petrol, 6/- gallon. (30p)
  9. A Capri, love em. Had a couple of those as well. I traded a 3L Ghia Capri in for the Trany. also had a 3000 E
  10. So that I could import this one from South Carolina. This one's only a 5.8 V8 1094990001_Tahoe2.bmp
  11. 6.6 V8 403 cubic inches, Purchased it new, kept it for 24 years and when I sold it, it had 24k on the clock. TA - Copy (2).bmpTA - Copy (2).bmp
  12. Oil is cheap enough Swaitsy. I've never gone as much as 5k between changes, but I only do about 1k a year these days so I just change it every year. When I was working I used to own a Trans-Am and when I changed it's oil I would use it to do an oil change on my van, haha. A regular oil change keeps every thing clean. My 2009 A6 has only done 42k.
  13. Just make a note of the new plug incase you ever want a new one.
  14. Don't forget to hook up your charger before doing your brakes.
  15. Hears a a3 2021 jack https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353083294861?fits=Car+Make%3AAudi|Cars+Type%3AS3+quattro|Cars+Year%3A2021&hash=item523567848d:g:GkMAAOSwCgBexw~q
  16. Thanks for the tip. I'll make the same offer next week. Hospital appointments this week would clash with delivery.
  17. Let us know how it goes.
  18. ebay's got them for £43 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/393180653071 I'll get one next week.
  19. I found this, seems to do everything I will ever want to do. https://www.obdadvisor.com/ancel-vd500-review/
  20. ^ ^ ^ DITO. Just like you, I want EPB open and close or service reminder . remove. Not having to go from page to page to do a simple task.
  21. I already have VCDS but am not a fan I'm afraid. I don't know why I have to update it all the time, that and windows 11 crashing every five mins.
  22. Try giving the battery a good charging. I was getting all kind of random things happening, doors not locking / unlocking. In the end I purchased a new Varta 110Ah battery, everything works ok now and I didn't even bother to code the battery. Mind you my old battery was 13 years old.
