  1. As long as he tries the handle and it doesnt open I would imagine he will move on. A good practice is to leave ashtray and glove box open showing nothing in it to deter people from bothering to brick a window.
  2. Its all just bizarre. A quota of recruitment based on race surely has to be as illegal as not offering a role based on race? Racism, if it exists in a certain industry or company has to be dealt with at its core which is to sort out the person/s responsible, quota's for me simply help keep racist people in positions of power.
  3. It was always there, you just had no reason to notice it before
  4. Exactly, he would never have done Ali if he was white Actually come to think of it, could you have been a Fresh Prince if you were white?
  5. I think he is 'almost' there but wonder if you stuck him into the oscar winning roles you see whether he would do such a good job. Certainly never going to be De Niro or the like. He provides reasonable entertainment but do not find him on the whole convincing, I think the best I saw of him was Pursuit of Happyness.
  6. I think Ekona hits nail on the head, as soon as someone convinces themselves they are not achieving because of something like their colour its a pathway to continual failure. They will always look outside their own issues for reasons for not achieving and not look to improve themselves. Yes there will be instances of out and out racism which needs to be tackled but if you want to improve you should always look to yourself first - certainly a Mr Will Smith is far from the best actor in the world and has some way to go, maybe he should think a bit more about how he can improve himself.
  7. Only feedback on the BH stuff is that it stinks, pretty bad, even when I put the lid back on!
  8. No it doesn't you short fat black gay immigrant
  9. I know, I was joking bit gutted we didnt see DH comment on the 260z though
  10. Haha I've been told to stop posting in my threads as apparently it comes across as flirtatious behaviour lol I think they were being sarcastic
  11. Chirag how was the BH stuff? I took receipt of some on Friday but havent had the chance to try it yet?
  12. As tested by James May and Damon Hill last night - skip to 17:00 mins in http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b06z98lc/james-mays-cars-of-the-people-series-2-episode-1
  13. I do struggle with some things regarding racism, I really do. There is racism all over the world, I was subject to it in France and in Japan when I lived there but you know what, it really didn't bother me, I just got on with it and didn't use it as an excuse for how I behaved or got on in life. The idea that this is so serious that they are thinking of putting in quota's to ensure a percentage of people of a certain race appear in a backside kissing sycophantic awards show is mental. If it really is that important then tackle racism at its core, putting in quota's doesn't get rid of it only allows it to continue. Again I wonder, why do actors think they are so important? Its a shame the public are so obsessed with these people whose talent in most cases is at best minimal. There really are more important issues in the world today.
  14. Cheapest I can see it on google shopping search is £245 from car audio centre...
  15. Twas indeed me a pleasure to share a page with you Jeff!
  16. Amazing bit of kit this, and a bargain as well if you want some proper bass in the car - nearly got one of these before going for the Alpine box simply because priced new was out of my target price range.
  17. Sounds like they got the 'tang back on track in terms of what its meant to deliver, went out in the previous version, drop top, and wasn't that impressed really.
  18. Another problem solved (hopefully) by the power of the forum!
  19. That said, do nothing and he robs someone else tonight, even worse hurts someone. Pass it to police with statements from people that can ID him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Not good those speed bumps, although they look pretty much par for the course driving around inside zone 3 in London Glad you are enjoying, when I read new purchase threads I do fear for that post that comes up saying something terrible has happened to the car...glad you are negotiating early ownership well!

  22. I got insured on bigger more powerful cars for less than little 1.2 shitboxes, because they tend to be owned by older more mature and better drivers. My first car was a 2003 BMW 318i - Not exactly fast, apaz did 0-60 in 9.7 I believe, but it was more the fact it was comfortable and safe as a first car Had leather seats, climate/cruise control too Damn nice first car 2nd car is now my Z at the age of 20 and insurance is literally £20 a month more than the BMW was, for a total of about £1700 a year. You just have to shop around for unusual cars that people don't tend to crash much A while ago Churchill neglected to recognize certain performance badges, which my mate took advantage of to insure a Mondeo ST for the same price as a standard Mondeo. Think it was around £900 and he was 19 at the time. The moral is to never rule out a quick car, insurance companies sometimes "forget" certain cars are quick! And if he was involved in an accident and the insurer goes along and notes it's an ST not a standard Mondeo and says he isn't covered...?
