  1. I've got a 3 and I often use my mate's 2. The difference in screen clarity on the 3 over the predecessors is noticeable, as is it's generally nippier performance. I've not tried a 4 yet. I'd go for a used or refurbed 3 if you can. I have 3G on mine which is useful and saves messing around tethering to your phone (and draining its battery) when you're on the move. I also have Nexus 7 for my folks to use. It's very impressive and I'd say a step up from iPad 1, but only if you don't mind not being in the apple ecosystem and the smaller screen and no 3G.
  2. I had a Passat as a rental a few months ago, absolutely loved it, felt nice and refined.
  3. I'm not mechanically experienced either and I was really scared buying my Zed a few months ago, it's the most expensive purchase I've ever made! I paid an AA dude to check it out for me and he gave me a long report which I got the garage to do some of the work before I collected. Looking back now this was an expensive choice but it saved me a few quid on the jobs they did and gave me peace of mind (which I was really pleased to have), it also gave me a list of the smaller jobs that needed doing, which I'm working through. However it comes with zero guarantees from the AA so if they miss something big, you're still on your own and it ain't cheap. It might be a decent last resort but if you know a grease junkie they will probably help you, or, if you ask nicely on here and are lucky enough that there's an experienced Zedder near you, they might check it out with you. I was blown away by helpful and friendly everyone is here, still am. Good luck.
  4. It's hard to see what these lunatics think they'll achieve. As if our foreign policy is decided by the poor victim or even the people of the UK. You'd maybe understand it more if they kidnapped an MP or something, but this sort of thing simply gives people like Cameron the ammo they need to justify the continuing war on terror/sending troops wherever/shipping arms to wherever. You gotta feel for the bloke and his family, totally senseless.
  5. what the handbrake lever assembly? same set up as a early car. Nice one, how much for the assembly please Mark? £35-00 inc postage Done! Thanks Mark. I'll email.
  6. I'll be going PS4, I've had each iteration and if I learnt one thing as a kid, you're either SEGA or Nintendo - you can't change teams! - so I'm sticking Sony not jumping to Microsoft. I'd have considered switching if Xbox was significantly better, or if Gran Turismo would make it over to that platform. Also the home media centre stuff doesn't really float my boat, I'm after a games machine, nothing else, if I do want to watch a movie the PS3 already has sufficient capability in that area for me. I've dabbled with Xbox over the years, I've always preferred Sony's UI. I hope this isn't the begining of the end of dedicated gaming devices, on a long road to a switch to cloud served up games and the start of always on Internet being mandatory. I don't want the brains of my device in some server farm contending with a billion other people for CPU cycles. I want it in my living room just for me!
  7. what the handbrake lever assembly? same set up as a early car. Nice one, how much for the assembly please Mark?
  8. I know I didn't attend but surely a man only owns in total: black shoes for work trainers for recreation one pair Copa Mundial footy boots one pair Adizero golf spikes one pair Havaianas for the beach/pool Why would anyone need other shoes? I'm confused.
  9. As per above, if you feel inclined to do so, drop a quid in the honesty box for the greater good Please don't do it until you've got them and your happy its sorted your pop. I know from bitter experience that sometimes one fix for this is not enough! I'm not a trader, there are no refunds! Gifted as seen, all gifts are final!
  10. FYI anyone who's PM'd I don't provide the (necessary) superglue!
  11. Don't sweat it, off to the postie tomorrow anyway, just PM address details.
  12. I ordered them prior to seeing that link, so got suckered into a couple of sheets! £6 I think but a bit smaller.
  13. Just received some, have about 56 more than I need. PM and I'll send anyone some. Gratis like.
  14. Check out this guy, he's getting seats in the back and everything, he must really be somebody. But seriously, the jags are fit, good luck with the hunt.
  15. To be fair, the strap line is spot on. It's easily the best killer tyre movie I've ever seen.
  16. I think those two comments some up nicely how divisive a film like this is!
  17. Hi Do you have the handbrake available at all? If so, how much? Also, is it significantly different to the one in my '04? Thanks
  18. This is by far the strangest film I've ever seen, and I've seen Tampopo. If you have the time and the kind of disposition that can tolerate esoteric movies, this is for you. If Battleship is your favourite movie, it may not be. It's about a tyre that goes on a psycho killing spree. Nuff said. Sorry if this is a repost, I searched for rubber, but got quite a few hits.
  19. Can someone please tell me what that front lip is? I like it.
  20. I'm just down the road in Blackpool, if I can get away would it be ok to pop up? I've never met another Zed owner in real life?
