    What to bring from Tokyo! car?

    been to Asia so many times i may as well have an Asian confectionary shop, the kit kat is nice but too expensive IMO. Wasabi Pistachio is where its at. Japanse beer is good, Yebisu, Suntory Malt, Kirin Ichiban, Sapporo, Asahi.

    Facelift differences

    easier just to buy a facelift, why would anyone go to the trouble of converting one to another, if it was just a few bumpers or side skirts perhaps i could see the point its not financial sense to do here however.

    High mileage petrol accord - a good buy?

    they all have their merits, Honda, Lexus and Subaru, Mercedes are what they are incredible cars (V8 petrols) but best to not get ones with a MOT obtained through dubious means. A SpecB Subaru is better than a Honda Accord, a Corolla (obviously), and IMO better than a Lexus IS250 also - Lexus is...

    High mileage petrol accord - a good buy?

    this one i posted has manual box and is a SpecB, simply put it will (as Jon put it) embarrass all the cars mentioned above, but hey if you are worried about mpg and all that its probably not for you. I dont do huge miles like yourself so dont see what the problem is - drive a nice car like a...

    High mileage petrol accord - a good buy?

    better enlighten us Jon, nothing screams embarrassment to me that driving a diesel and giving it loads only to leave behind a reeking pile of crap in your wake.

    High mileage petrol accord - a good buy?

    Legacies will outlive you Jon, they will still be having a rasping boxer 6 growl when you are in some faraway land consoling yourself on the demise of diesels.!

    remaps...

    So, I finally got around to doing a remap and blimey..... :wub: :wub: :blink: what performance. I used ECUFlash and Romraider with the Taxtrix cable, S# mode is truly ballistic, I mode is more sedate and bring some slightly better economy - win win as far as I can see. The only bad news is...

    Fairfuel

    well he is on the head with the 2nd point, I remember being in Germany a decade ago and the bottle banks in supermarkets where you get cash back, alien to England, hell even Ireland charged for plasic bags yonks ago. England is meant to be a developed nation but looking at the ancient and...
