  1. yeah i heard it was health and safety because apparently people who mod carz have the most unsafe cars etc but surely if you mod your car you do it right and take pride in it tinkering about most days with it so should be safer than normal cars and people who dont no how to check oil levels and lights etc(thats unsafe!!???) not fittin a bodykit or exhaust hows that unsafe???? any way surely parking sensors and hands free kits are mods and i bet tony blair has them on his car so his car is illegal too surely if they do bring it in they need to set limits but youll still get round it though some

  10. @scutch i got an engine from a place up north for 230quid its got 17000miles on it so should be mint!!!as for how i did it yeah i did valve stem seals on it but didnt make any difference so obviousely wasnt them and can only be two things if its burnin oil valve stem seals or piston rings as for the cause it has been overfueling for a long time hence the flames!!! and found a faulty air temp sensor which was messing all the fuelling about and think washed the bores and killed the oil control rings so hopefully get the new lump in their and run it about for a bit and then sell it but @toymota i
