In the UK catapults are not illegal to own or carry in public, but if they are being used to harm people, animals, property, or for anti-social behaviour, their use could be illegal under existing laws.

The difficulty comes in proving whether or not someone carrying a catapult intends to use it for harm.

Including this which can kill a person - the law is an ass.

I always thought the sight on one of those was hopelessy optimistic and pointless... bearing in mind the trajectory was entirely variable depending on your grip and how straight you pulled back the bands...

Was the site down for other people over the weekend? I couldn't seem to access it. Was away camping in the van and kept getting error messages.

During the Great Summer Blackout of 2026 I replaced my D2S bulbs and main beams from JDM, the D2S I removed were Koito which my mate Google thinks were OEM, obviously not still in from new, but the difference in brightness was pretty shocking even in strong daylight. The main beams I put in are the Masuma and obviously much brighter. All in all if you want some budget friendly bulbs then the JDM car parts stuff seem really good value. Will get a night photo if anyone is interested.1000031527.jpg1000031444.jpg
 
Oil and Filter change...1st since 2024.... Less than 10k since last change, but still......Also 1st opportunity when sun wasn't able to fully roast me, so win win...plus I had new, unsealed oil from 2 years ago, which was 60% cheaper than now, so win,win,win??

Whoever it is, he might take offence at being labelled in such a way... ;-)
 
Today I topped up my AC - nice and cold now for the trip to France, was already cool but now its icy! I also removed my backbox in preparation for switching mine out on the way down to France. Both nuts completely seized so had to grind them off, drill out and fit new stainless nuts/bolts (new gasket too for good measure) then the HKS backbox will be on 👌🏻
 
Also went to change rear droplinks only to find the bushes need done too so put that off until they arrive from JDM... I measured my arb with calipers at 27mm but everywhere says 26mm - guessing that's the correct size 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
well i am glad you came out paddy the suspense was killing me hope you have got used to not trying to change gear with the brake and enjoy the beast as much as i did
 
Only been on here almost 5 years so it's taking a while. Been & bought the very one I drove back in June 2022. Strangely whilst I went to post this after my it's me post the forum crashed again for me just as I said it would. So starting this post again today. Either the laptop or forum went into shock.

Driving home I got used to it and I'm loving the reversing camera and folding mirrors.

Anyhow I had 3 to choose from and each one was a compromise and it boiled down to which of those compromises I was prepared to make. It has way more legroom than I remember which is good. But I felt like I was sat a lot lower than I remember.

All the blue will be going as will the pin stripes and puff on the rear window. It's gonna piss a lot of the neighbours off now I have 2 vehicles again as they've all lost the parking space outside our house they've got used to taking.

Anyhow here's the bad boy in its new territory
