General Discussion Area / Anyone need any Xbox games?

« on: 01 November 2006, 22:32:42 »

My son is going to sell some Xbox games to raise some cash for Christmas (probably for himself) so I thought I would see if anyone here would be interested in them before they go for sale elsewhere.
The titles are -

Splinter Cell
Splinter Cell - Pandora Tomorrow
James Bond - Nightfire
WWE Raw 2
Prince of Persia - Warrior Within
LA Rush
Worms 3D
Sonic Heroes
Simpsons Hit and Run

Might make handy presents in themselves.
He was looking for about £4.50 each delivered, but we're all friends here so we'll see how it goes.
Cheers

General Discussion Area / The Dark Side.......

« on: 12 October 2006, 19:34:11 »

Firstly I apologise....for sneaking a peak at the dark side (ie V*O*) [smiley=embarassed.gif]. Anyway, noticed that they are close to achieving VBOA status, thereby eligible for the Vx trade club scheme, and of course they are also piloting the Halfords trade card. Good luck to them I suppose!? [smiley=lipsrsealed.gif]
Anyway, part 2, I found a thread from some dealer who is having a clearout of old stock, and who then provided me with a list of perhaps 2000 items. Unfortunately the list contains part numbers only, rather than item description. I haven't started to go through it yet, but if anyone is interested I can email a copy. I'm not sure if it could be posted here, or even whether it would be worth it, but if you're looking for something in particular and have the part number then they might be able to help. [smiley=undecided.gif]
Just thought I'd mention it.

General Discussion Area / Mind over matter?

« on: 09 October 2006, 13:12:47 »

Was a wee bit busy over the weekend with the old Meega, in between the usual family chores and taxi service! Firstly, got the new pollen filter fitted. the old one was totally black. Unbelieveable! Anyway, with the new one fitted the air con seems fresher or colder. Happy days!
Then decided to do some cleaning. Due to time and weather constraints, decided not to remove the scuttle to do the breathers, but did remove the plenum and clean the throttle bodies, which were also filthy. First 'major' mechanic type work done by me, and all thanks to this forum and the generous help found therein. When I took the car out again, it seems that it runs a bit smoother, and a bit more responsive. In particular from starting, as there no longer seems to be some travel in the throttle pedal before it bites, as if the butterflies had been a bit sticky and needed more throttle to get them moving. Not sure if that makes mechanical sense, and perhaps it is simply mind over matter, but at the end of the day it was a job done by myself (with the 'how to' of course) and was extremely satisfying. I intend doing the crankcase breathers next weekend if I can, and hope that it also turns out as well.
Cheers for all the help so far [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

General Discussion Area / Vx non current models

« on: 24 July 2006, 22:43:15 »

Does anyone know why non-current models no longer feature on the Vx accessories page? Surely the facelift Omega is not that old? [smiley=shocked.gif]

General Discussion Area / And he's off ......

« on: 16 July 2006, 22:24:15 »

Well it's finally started. Spent some time on the Meega at the weekend and did two minor jobs -

1. cleaned the ICV. First time have got my hands dirty, and maybe it's just my imagination but the car seems smoother. Haven't gone too far as yet though, and appreciate that I'll need to do the throttle body and breathers to complete the job, but hey, one step at a time!

2. changed the side repeater lenses for clear ones. I know it's not much of a mod but I think it was worth it. It updates the look of the car and matches in with the already clear indicator lenses.

Don't think I would have done anything at all if it had not been for this forum and all its members. Gaining knowledge every time I look here, and a wee bit of confidence.

Happy days!! [smiley=happy.gif]
