  1. Bought a item over the weekend using bank transfer, haven't heard anything yet..slightly worried (phoned & email sent)

    He's in Romania, back Wednesday... not sure if there's someone covering while he's away.

  2. I was only stirring mate, like you say, it's a doddle to use. TBH I'd be surprised if another human is involved after you submit.

     

    Good luck on the next one.

     

    I uploaded a few images before that 1 and was flipping/resizing etc quite a bit, I get the feeling some flipped="true/false" flag got stuck... hopefully the next one will turn out OK!

  3. Hi All,

     

    So I wanted to order a contactless debit card from Barclays, however to do that you have to phone telephone banking which is always a hassle. So I thought I'd be clever and order a personalised debit card, Barclays do that for free. a new card should be contactless right? And I get a photo of my Z on my card... win win!

     

    The web based app is fairly easy to use, you upload a photo, scale/flip/move it how you want and submit, easy! It looks like this:

    See how I've positioned my Z so well in the area with no text or logos? My card arrived today and, personally I think they've done a spot on job!

  4. Personally, every time a stone or something made a noise under the car I'd be second guessing whether the cheap decats were falling apart so I'd prefer to pay a little extra for something I know is good quality.

  5. Interesting about the Phantom, I'd never have put that up there in the stiffest chassis list.

     

    I'm not sure if that's true but it makes sense that a heavy car needing a stiffer Chassis, Bentley claimed they had the stiffest convertible chassis. I think I read somewhere that Jaguar said the BMW M5 had the stiffest chassis they'd tested but could be wrong.

  6. Seriously every time I put the wheel back on a customers car I end up second guessing myself over and over if I torqued them up.

     

    I end up going round a car about 3 times rechecking.

     

    Such an easy but critical thing to do.

    If it was easy you wouldn't have to do it 3 times. :stir:

  7. I don't understand the tyre selection on these tests, they take the top of the range Michelin Pilot Super Sports (£175) and compare it against the lower in the range Yokohama V105s (£126) and Falken FK510s (£118). Why not compare against the Yoko AD08Rs (£160) or Falken FK453s (£148) which seem like a better competitor?

     

    * Prices are from black circles for a 245/45R18 for comparison on budget/quality/whatever.

  8. It's not 4 seats but MR2 Turbo? If you're not a fan of convertibles the T-Bar is a great compromise, you could always go tin top if you really wanted. Reliable, fast, cheap (ish considering age) and won't depreciate... unless you bend it.

  9. The Last of Us is on the rental list, coming soon!

     

    Can't you buy the game from Amazon for like £20??

     

     

    Loved the last of us on PS4 but got stuck in the gym IIRC and never went back.

     

    Ooooh I remember that part, took a few attempts but it's rewarding when you finish it. I think there was another part where you play the girl in a confined space that was bloody tough as well.

  10. I understand you are planning on using ABS filament which in itself has a better resistance to higher temperatures than PLA filament and although it does have good strength properties it is as yet a totally untested part in the environment you're putting it in.

     

    What's the worst case scenario though? The stack shatters/breaks and the air filter catches the crap? I doubt the air velocity would be great enough to cut right through the filter and enter the engine, you'd have to expect the odd stone or whatever hitting the filter which would cause more damage.
