Luckily, this isn't in Kent

It's a disused road tunnel on Leake Street on the South Bank in London. It runs underneath Waterloo Station and since Banksy used it to exhibit work, it has become a legal Graffiti zone. It's now known as the Graffiti Tunnel. It's used quite often for car meets etc - it's out of the way, hardly any Police interaction, and acoustics are fantastic

Here's the result of a mate's new camera...












































Last few were actually taken on Embankment, just up the road from Westminster. Amazingly, the parking I had found was not only empty, but completely free (though it was between Midnight and 2am!)

great shots, love the car

but just a tip if i may, 4 shots of each angle is a bit of a overkill, the photographer i understand, its never wrong to take too many photos, but dont upload them all

[Rs Adz]

nice pics have you got an album set up with all the different ones in

I'm not wasting any bandwidth... I've just uploaded everything that wasn't blurry.

Adz - my photobucket is stocked to the gills with photos now, when I've finished sorting through them and erasing number plates I'll probably open it up

And how many photos have you uploaded in your thread? pot-kettle-black

[Smo]

Still close enough, Nick

[jonyb4]

do you even read what people say before you comment?

[Smo]

Who, me?

[jonyb4]

noooooo

[hb69]

I would prefer 7 pictures from each angle tbh

Some people have mentioned problems in that tunnel, a few been jacked so i heard.

[dontpannic]

Yeah, I was a bit apprehensive but when I got there there was a VAG/Jap meet going on down there so felt safer! Had a good old chat with a few randomers down there too lol

Moved the car last night to find a big puddle of oil underneath it, and the power steering reservoir almost empty. Yet another job to do, hopefully its not the pump, don't really fancy spending £300+VAT on a new one, so if it turns out to be the pump I'll take my chances with a low mileage second hand one.

And these are pictures of a nice car

Looking good Nick, I really like what you have done with it, love the STs!

Cheers Dave

Quick mod, replaced the standard 'transit CV boot' gear gaiter for an oem leather one

[jonyb4]

so much better, personally always disliked them, even mk2/mk3 ones.. leather ftw!


something else that bugs me in this pic, the 'on show' seat runner bolts

Power steering pump on my ST was whining like mad when I got rid of it, I assume it was on it's way out. Yet another thing that was wrong with it.

Strangely, it just seemed to throw a hissy fit that day - it actually ended up losing all its coolant from a combination of a split hose and the water pump. Therefore, I have a spare PAS pump in the shed from a 20k mile car ready to go in once mine dies

[Dave G fsi]

Not looked at this thread for a while, loving how it looks now

Pressed plates?

[dontpannic]

Already got them haha!

[Dave G fsi]

Glad to hear it

[dontpannic]

[jonyb4]

chive points to you sir, nice buy on the rev wimeter

[dontpannic]

Haha. I duly accept my chive points.

It's going on the saxo as the standard rev limiter on that causes you to headbutt the steering wheel, but had to try it on the fiesta first lol

[dontpannic]

Cleaned, Polished, Waxed and Deep Shined.

Also spot the amber side repeaters

[jonyb4]

mmmm

[Smo]

Looks good, Nick

[hb69]

They aren't amber as standard are they?

[dontpannic]

Long time no update. The car now has a dashcam (constantly records), a slow puncture and a cracked windscreen.

Windscreens booked in for Tuesday (being replaced so it means my quickclear screen might actually work!), and new tyres are on the cards (advisory on MOT - which passed with tyres being the only advisory).

No photos - the crack is mighty difficult to photograph.

[hb69]

Keep photos of the crack to yourself

[trecoll]

What dashcam you go for?

[FiestaBen]

Saw this at brands hatch tonight! Looking good

Didn't know you were about lol. I moved it around a couple of times. Was it down at the bottom of Paddock Hill when you saw it or up the top road?

[FiestaBen]

When I saw it, it was like you were leaving. Were you with the Saxo that was behind you?
