    Post Covid are we all feeling really stupid

    If anyone would like copies of the scientific documents I mentioned just PM me. Argue the toss with the authors, don't take my word. PS I share these thoughts out of genuine concern for others.

    Post Covid are we all feeling really stupid

    I'm with Wattie. At the very beginning I saw the fix was in when all Australian State Governments legislated to ban use of Hydroxychloroquine a drug claimed beat Covid. A co-worker had been on it for 10 years for another ailment, so why ban it as suddenly dangerous? There had to be...

    GS Died on the diveway

    Thank you for posting that video. Would you believe I plan to change my key fob batteries today after an embarrassing fail last weekend? Love the forum, we can assist each other.

    GS Died on the diveway

    Hope it's not the clutch sensor. Friend had his spyder die at a set of traffic lights near his home.

    GS Died on the diveway

    Try slamming the brake pedal hard. Then start up. The brake pedal sensor may be on the way out and the car has a "no brakes, no go" feature. I have experienced this.

    Cardle

    Tried playing this for the first time, no idea what it was. Never seen or heard of this model in Australia, yet there are 3 for sale here. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/honda/beat/?sort=%7ePrice

    Embarrassing Key Battery Moment

    Took my car to a Cars'N'Coffee event at Warners Bay, Newcastle yesterday morning. Great turn out, first event since Covid. When it was time to go, I noticed the remote key didn't respond, so I opened the door using the physical key in the slot. Alarm goes off and grabs the attention of all...

    Looks like a Summernats special. For cruising around the arena in Canberra amongst the crowds where the SummerNats is held each year in early January.

    GranSport Giallo Granturismo thread

    Hi Gotcha, I have tech cloth inserts so jeans aren't too bad. This is an early photo before I had the dash top changed to black. With our strong sunshine, the glare was impossible. You'll note the carbon fibre paddles from Formula Dynamics, or a copy at least. The red piping matches the...

    GranSport Giallo Granturismo thread

    Hi Gotcha, I am late to this thread, but really, really enjoyed reading every step of your journey. I feel we have the same passion, which some call a disease, wanting the car to be perfect. I have many similiar experiences in my nearly 10 years ownership, though I leave the more mechanical...

    4200 water pump

    I might have one becoming available as I've bought a low kilometer engine including water pump to be fitted when my mechanic can schedule my job. The engine and torque tube are already at his workshop. It's in Australia though, so freight might be a bit much.

    COUPE (4200) DRIVERS SEAT ADJUSTMENT JOYSTICK COVER

    Hi Steven, I found this in one of my many boxes of spares (nearly 10 years ownership creates lots of stuff). Is this what you are looking for? From my 2005 Gransport. I upgraded to a memory seat set I got from Stu. I'll send a PM to make sure you see this.

    That's from Targa Tasmania, which means the Pantera is overtaking the Testarossa, who has taken to the verge to give room.

    Pic of the day

    I used to sell Choppers in the early days in my career in the bicycle world in the 70's. I also used to hate marketing people who would transpose a bicycle picture such as above (chainwheel on the wrong side) for artistic reasons. That would really grind my gears so to speak.

    Wraps, I just don't get why

    As a concours judge, I am definitely not into the chameleon paint effect, nor into matte paints or the wraps that copy them. It may be technically difficult to paint but that doesn't mean it looks any good. Why waste time and effort on ugly eg. the TVR posted. It reminds me of syncopation in...
