Crunches into reverse occasionally when cold... Not too bad though..

Paid rego thismorning, so that is all sorted, buying a brand new VN bulge on ebay in white tonight if i win, mum said she'll buy me some tyres for the ceptors on friday so it is basically a decision whether to run with ceptors or my crappy rims on the cruise, probably the crappy rims as my ceptors need new nuts and a new cap, so im gonna splurge out and get chrome caps :D

You have 2 choices - be nice on the box or start saving for a new one. Reco units are around $900 change over. Less from ebay as a second handy but it's a bit of a lottery. TVR will spend a few days helping you put it in :thumbsup:

Hey..

Yeah, paid rego today so itll be there, giving it a wash & polish on friday.

Havent decided on what wheels to take there though, probably my shitty 16" clubby replica's.

Thanks, ill try that out, what usually works is clutch out, clutch in, gearstick as far left in neutral as possibly and then slowly into reverse.

You bringing the ute or the caprice..

In other news, since seeing a white VP with the exact same stuff as mine, except he has 17" VR clubby replica's and a bonnet bulge.. I bought a bonnet bulge because i think it quite suits that VP up the road, so it should mine.. LOL

Bulge cost me $50, he says it is brand new, and it is in my colour which is a win...
