    YELLOW!

    Can anyone tell me if Atacama yellow is metallic or solid? TIA.
  2. Wired up the trailer plug on the M5, just have to rewire the trailer now to have seperate left/right tail light circuits, then put a 50mm coupling on my trailer.
  3. I didnt even push the power button (much)

    Cheap M2

    Pity its front wheel drive???!!
  5. Fascia is the boards around the outside at the top of the walls, usually has the spouting attached to it. I only got one roller door, but I recommend an access door as its a bit of a pain opening the roller door every time you go in or out! The window doesnt matter, I have one but I put a curtain on it so I dont piss the neighbours off welding at night, and its always closed, so not much point having it really.
  6. Your main issue with using the existing pad and wall will be proving to the council that they are up to the job, they are getting really strict on that stuff now, also you will need to have a rebate in the concrete for where the door closes and your floor level has to be at least 150mm higher than the ground level (from memory) so it may be easier to rip it out and start again, plus you will get a nice new smooth floor!! You will also need to tell whoever you use if you are going to line the inside as they normally space the studs at 900mm which is no good for attaching ply or gib to.
  7. Total span was ok to deal with, but they are franchises so each area will be different, but the product has held up really well, the main reason I chose them was because of the design of the frame, no horizontal bars on the roof framing so more clearance for overhead stuff.I had similar Iissues with space at my place, 6 x 7 was the biggest I could fit!!

    E46 M3 project

    Flick me a pm IF you want I can powdercoat over It with matt black or something!!
  10. I built a 6 x 7 total span at my place about 7 years ago, all up was around 30k, I got someone to do the slab and I did the rest. I had to get a fire engineers report because I was close to the boundary, as well as a survey to check the boundry. I also had to get an engineer to do a PS 4 because I built it myself (about $500 from memory) I have one of those wind powered ventilators so no condensation issues, but it still gets hot in summer. I also increased the wall height to 3m so I could have a gantry beam running across with a chain block for lifting engines etc. I also spent a lot getting power put in, I have 20 x 10 amp plugs, 1 x 15 amp, and 1 x 32 amp for my welders. (Still not enough!!) Inside is lined with 12mm ply so I can attach stuff to walls, and it is insulated with noise stop batts to keep the neighbours happy! Have fun!
  11. Kinda need to move this on, $8000 to BS members. Price wont be going any lower than this. Will hang on to it for a project or something if it doesnt sell.
  12. They seem to have bottomed out price wise, I paid 2700 for mine 3+ years ago, similar condition.
  13. I'd be very wary of something with a raper at one end!!
  14. How do we know your Mrs isnt trying to sell edgars car ? Seriously, what do people hope to achieve by doing this sort of crap?

    Picked up a mini me for this, www.otto-models.com number 362 of 500, left hand drive though!!
  18. Im glad you didnt get any closer, you would be able to see how filthy It Is!!!
  19. Did you take the caliper apart and clean the slides and grease them when you did the pads? It is probably worth doing before you look at rebuild kits etc.
