    Currency exchange in the UK

    Thanks Dave, I didn't know that about Thos Cook and the limit of 100 yoyo notes. We have been sat in a restaurant in France before now, and the waiter has gone across to the bank to change the note to smaller currency for us before we could pay for the food. Nice man :) We usually pay by...

    My Barn (motor cycle) find.

    Pete, maybe next time you need to start the 40 up with some straight through pipes, give em something to really complain about :laugh: Very nice find, lucky bugger. Finds like that are becoming rarer and rarer as now people expect everything to be worth a lot of money regardless of whether...

    Currency exchange in the UK

    david, how can they charge a different rate for different notes ? surely an exchange rate is an exchange rate, regardless of the size of note... I usually try to never take anything bigger than 50s, as even they get checked at some of the more out of the way places (Spain especially)...

    Shelby Sues Internet Forum

    this makes me very sad. Whilst I can see all points he is making to generally be true (they do look alike, they do refer to cobra etc etc) what is the point of all this, given just how long they have been producing them ? The people that go buy FF cobras most likely can't afford a CS cobra...

    heat shrink hose clamps

    I would assume that the engine heat will ensure they maintain as much shrink as they can. My concern would be whether they soften with the applied heat, and so potentially stretch under pressure. Still, they look like a smart idea if they have none of the potential problems. Give them a go...

    OOps!! Stig unveiled

    so I wonder if that means he will be sacked too now. Funny thing is, if you google his name it seems speculation over it being him goes back to 2005, just no one has proven it until now :)

    HT Lead Crimp tool

    Hi Paul, I suspect the one on vehiclewiringproducts.co.uk are the same as yours. which seem to be the preferred crimpers. Or maybe buy a kit with crimps and tool together. HT Terminal Kit I haven't used any others, so can't comment on quality. A guy has posted on the Cobra forum to...

    Drum Banging.......

    Dave, nice record, nice vid, nice daughter too. I hope they do well with the song. Is your daughter part of the band, or an extra for the video ? All the best, John. p.s. would be good to catch up at an area meeting some time soon, hows the pills ? ;)

    Carroll Shelby vs Factory Five Racing

    Ah, I understand now you pointed that out Keith, thanks. Bill, the idea is that not ALL (or rather, everybodys) PMs go to 'Mr Moderator', only those sent to the moderator requesting intervention. Its like having one login that all the moderators share (if they wish) and can manage...

    GT40 45th reunion at Road America

    Anyone going from the UK ? I'm thinking about it, so looking at flights and accomodation. It would be good to go as a smallish group if anyone else fancies it. Cheers, John.

    Carroll Shelby vs Factory Five Racing

    Hi Bill, not sure if you meant me when you said John. I forgot you were the man for the FF coupe (should have read back up the posts as I've spotted its in there - Doh !) I've sent you an email anyway ;)

    Carroll Shelby vs Factory Five Racing

    So neither the FF or the Superformance are the same, dimensionally or shapewise, as the orginal :) Doesn't matter now - the wife caught me looking at the Superformance site and 'reminded' me that we will be replacing the kitchen this year, so that put paid to that idea :|

    Taking a Break

    Ross, one of the bike club forums I belong to & moderate on have exactly that. There is a single member identity (Mr Moderator funnily enough) that any of the moderators can use to dispell situations. By doing this, it removes any perceived personalities from the intervening moderator...

    Taking a Break

    Hi Ron, firstly, given that I believe I may have played a part in one such thread, or at least inadvertently provided the catalyst for an eruption, allow me to apologise. I have already, but if it helps you reconsider, I'll do it some more ;) Second, this site DOES have a high signal to noise...

    Carroll Shelby vs Factory Five Racing

    Hi guys, interesting development. Just how close to original is the FF Coupe, or indeed the Superformance Daytona ? We get the Superformance one in the UK via Rod Leaches 'Nostalgia', but not seen a FF version. Just interested, as the price sounds entertaining enough to think about...
