Anonymous Unregistered A	It seems to be the cheapest place around the A55 that sells decent fuel i.e. Optimax! Hence the queues mistress - it's a nightmare isn't it! I love playing the petrol pump roulette game "Which car will move next? I'll try this one - oh dear, they've gone to the toilet! Lose a turn!! etc" They must also keep the oveheads down by not employing more than one person at a time - those guys must be ex-Tibetan monks i.e. very patient with the customers! I've seen at least one toursit having a real go at them becuase they were on their lunch!! Agree with you there Pinin - no point using more fuel to save a penny or two a litre by going to Black Cat - Optimax is also available near Llanfairfechan, Menai Bridge & Valley. I went to the GP Masters race in Silverstone this weekend (saw one 20VT in Portofino there) and put £55 of Opti in Black Cat. On the way back I needed more fuel (I stuck to the limit obviously! & Telford services had Opti cheaper than 'the cat'. Who'd have thunk it!

How dare they tell me they weren't part of the meal deal - despite the promo material saying ALL walkers big eats were, and the Wotsits blatantly had Walkers Big Eat all over them!! ...I get very passionate about me Wotsits

I hope you haven't shunned the coupe for a Beetle - a Scotts Green 20V Turbo, heavily modified, in Bangor (Tesco (again!) and Halfords And again I suspect this is Cowboy Coopless!

I haven't seen CD's Coupe outside Bennetts for a while, as it used to be parked by the front door. There appears to be a modded (new) Beetle in red parked there now - but there used to be a modded blue Beetle there before, so perhaps Dave has not left the fold! I'll have to look this week on my way to Tescos..... Last edited by mona20vturbo; 14/08/2006 21:24.

Anonymous Unregistered A	That explains why I haven't seen it when I've been passing recently. The Beetle looks pretty modded (as was the old one) - is it a turbo? I actually bought a TV & VCD/DVD-R combo from Bennetts this year, so I think I might know you already. I'm also friends with Dave Fox from Pesda, who used to work there (if you know him). Glad you kept the faith with the Coupe Dave!

Anonymous Unregistered A	Hi Enforcer Have forgotten the specifics, except that it was a few months ago and it was daylight!! I'll keep my eyes peeled when I'm passing the area again (which is frequently) - keep your eye out for a red 20vT with personal number & I usually have a pair of Oakley X-Metal Juliets on my hooter!

You've probably seen me around a bit as I work in Bangor (Ffriddoedd Road), and go down from there to Coed Mawr as I go towards Tesco/Halfords (where I've seen your motor), and past Dave's Porto Turbo in Benetts (spotted last Thursday - too wet to cycle Dave?!)! If I see you driving in future, I'll wave! As for not being modded, I've decided (for the moment) to leave the body as Chris Bangle intended - but mine has a few cheeky bits installed under the bodywork so to speak - with more planned....

Anonymous Unregistered A	I was passing in the opposite direction in a Land Rover Discovery on my way home from the V Festival, and spotted a dark blue T-plated Turbo at about 11 A.M. on Monday 21st parked up by the side of the A483 Wrexham By-Pass with a puncture! The driver was taking off the nearside rear wheel & had the space saver out - hope you got it changed and back on your journey OK! Were you the one I saw parked in the lay-by near the Llanfairfechan tunnel a few weeks before?!?
