    Any news on this?
  5. Cool. there are a few ways of spelling "Stephen" so i understand if you have to put my name in a few times!
  6. If your doing the hat thing, can i put my name in there. Thanks!
  7. Surely is should be "Paying for parking is beneath them!"
  8. Send a copy of this thread in with the cheque
  9. That reminds me of something clarkson said about getting the Veyron to 250mph : "Somehow they had to find an extra 30kph, and there was no point in looking to the engine for answers because each extra 1kph increase in speed requires an extra 8bhp from the power plant. An extra 30kph then would need an extra 240bhp. That was not possible. "
  10. Well over 50% of my income goes on tax in its various forms and i am on the basic rate! The people in the highest tax bracken must be paying closer to 70%!!!! Its a fantastic reward for working hard and bettering yourself. I agree with helping those less fortunate then you but that idea has been warped by the government and is now closer to communism
  11. I dont really blame the companies (Though i am sure opec could do more to help). Its the amount of tax that is the real killer. And it just seems to be going up and up while to roads get worse and worse. Pulic transport for the most part is a total joke and still manages to be more expensive then driving in most cases.
  12. The government in this country takes a lot of stick. People are always saying that they just take and take and never give anything back. I think this is very unfair! The government has realised that driving at the moment is not pleasant. Drivers are having to devote so much energy to avoid the craters that litter the tarmac, the piggy banks at the side of the road and the ever changing speed limits that much concentration is being taken away from the act of driving. I am sure you will agree that it has taken them long enough, but the government has finally realised that drivers feel unloved and persecuted. So, rather then reversing some of their ridiculous policies and making life easier for everyone, they are going to give each and every driver in the UK a gift for putting up with it! So on to the good stuff! What do we actually get?! Well from the 1st of April 2010 you will get to give the government an extra 3p for every litre of fuel that you put into your car!!! I know that some of you will find this hard to believe, after all there was not one, but two very generous duty increases last year. However, since it is an election year the government is keen to hammer home just what jolly nice fellow they are. So there you have it. At a motorway service station yesterday I saw optimax for 126.9p which means in just over two weeks times the price in places will break £1.30 a litre! All joking aside, is anyone else starting to struggle with the petrol costs?
  13. Could it be a fault with your shoes? Not pressing both pedels at the same time?

    I have the same pads and they are doing exactlly the same thing. Perhaps they all do it...........
  16. thats a good starting point....i would be interested to know what type of protection the dvd has (if it has one)...although i used to make money of back up copies of cd games as a student that was almost 10 years ago...i am sure i could spent some time and find out...i ll try my 08 dvd tom and let you know... I was able to back up and use my 06 disk with no issues using clone DVD
  17. I have a 2009 copy but i would like another copy as a Back-up. Since i dont have the skill to take a back up on my own i would be more then happy to pay you for a back up copy of your disk. I am sure there are other who as in the same situation and want a copy as a back up ONLY.
  18. Thanks guys. I am pretty sure i can fix this by inserting the correct technical component (Read: bit of rubber). Will give it a try tomorrow.
  19. I have been trying to trace a rattle in my dash for a while now. I have spotted a bow in the plastic where the dash meets the window. If i push down on this there is some give and the rattle stops. Is this bow normal on the 350? I have attached a picture to show what i mean. Thanks.
  20. Isn't there already a download 2010 thread?
  21. I am looking for tyres. Can you still get them?
