  1. I know its absolutely wrong but would much prefer to see a few handbags at 5 paces than all the he said she said bu**sh*t, one of the funniest things i have ever seen was seeing an enraged Italian Frankie Chilli storming down the pit lane in his dressing grown to "have words" with Carl Fogarty.
  2. I would bet my left nut if it was anyone but Vettel or Hamilton they would have been black flagged immediately for dangerous driving and furthermore suffered a few race suspension. Some people think they are bigger than the sport (not just F1) and if they are allowed to get away with it, they will continue to behave like it. If the evidence is there (which i am sure it is with all their data) to show Hamilton maintained a constant pace and didnt brake test Vettel as he says, he has zero argument and should be made to apologise publicly to Hamilton, the FIA and the Fans and accept the punishment like a man, not a whinging spoilt brat.
  3. Just buy original, they can often be had from Amazon around the same as RT copies, sometimes less or as said above let rt fit and paint, just be aware of the costs.
  4. I think Stu has already replied but this is one of my biggest issues in politics today, calling up history from 10, 20, even 50 years ago to try and justify a point today. The fact is that even 10 years ago the world was a different place with different people in it (the second Iraq war was now 15 years ago) so its no more valid than comparing a 2003 BMW with a current one and people were referencing Churchill in the Brexit argument No one party or person can ever be held 100% accountable for anything thats happened in the past, this is why we have a parliament (and a second house) in the first place. While the Tory "investment" in NI can be seen as a bung, Id take 100 of those over Labours continual pandering to the unions in the 80's just to maintain support, its hardly a new concept. Again i agree, but thats just it with politics and most people are guilty of it, as i think Jay mentions, how many dont vote Tory because of the miners/thatcher which as you suggest was a different era and we are talking a major policy (trident), so personally i dont think its "just" to roll out the old trident argument and jump on the JC bandwagon surrounding it and the costs when the party you are advocating led us into Iraq, you either have those morals or just blindly follow a party regardless.
  5. As i say i agree, opinion on its merits are one thing, the cost to the state is a separate issue imho
  6. Not the point i am making, you cant get on a moral high ground about defence budgets unless of course you changed your vote because of Iraq, i will take a guess Stu hasnt voted anything but Labour all his voting life, if he did, i humbly apologise, if he didnt, he obviously didnt feel that strongly about the defense spending so cant make issue of it now.
  7. I agree, but you cant claim a moral high ground for Labour on the subject of defense budgets
  8. I must admit Stu I find it particularly ironic that a staunch Labour supporter would be prepared to voice any opinion on defense when Labour led us into an illegal war and the associated costs.
  9. As suggested, get a Jack Royal reprofile flat bottom. http://royalsteeringwheels.com/nissan-3/
  10. Those would soon disappear with a sniff of government I think it would have cost us a fair few more billions if Labour had got in
  11. How much do you reckon JC would pay to be in government, bet it would be more than a pound, i mean billion, sorry, talking Labour and figures and i get all confused
  12. I think its just the sport dude, you dont get this kind of bull in motogp.
  13. You are not wrong, but he is a particularly good example.
  14. Ive never warmed to Vettel and the last few years have shown me why, he is like a petulant child throwing his toys out of the pram at the slighest hint its not going his way, no doubt a very talented driver, but a total tool.
  15. ^^ This, its just a car, be thankful no one was hurt, particularly your daughter.
  16. Winter pack/tow pack is 15k+, what the hell does that consist of?
  17. You wouldnt be disappointed with either, personal choice would be ds2500 pads, also worth considering mtech discs
  18. I am sorry to say, this was a terrible tragedy, but can you really foot the blame at hotpoint or the installers of the cladding? Surely anything with 240v going to it runs the risk of combusting, even if its 1 in a million, whats next, ev owners suing because their batteries caught fire? I am with TT, it was a terrible chain of events, i do not know why someone has to be at blame for people to feel vindicated and i personally see no way of proving without doubt that the building would not have had the same fate with different cladding etc. I would also bet there are 1000's if not millions of buildings in the uk that are way more a tinder box than this one, whats the answer, condemn every one?
  19. Who authorised the ev hire car, your insurance company or have your personally hired it?
  20. As said, I fully respect his knowledge and his posts. There are no hard facts though, even today I read an article regarding the banking sector and job losses due to Brexit, but as of yet, there is no confirmation and likely to be a lot lot less than the drama queen responses this time last year, so all I am saying is lets wait and see and stop condemning every post to the opposite.
  21. Sorry Codel, but you are so dismissive of any other views on this subject, its flat out arrogant, i do fully respect your views and opinions and digest anything you post on the subject, but its all conjecture without ANY fact, hardly surprising when as said before none of us know what will or wont happen. Lets see what the Eu want from us and what we want from them, its not a one way street dude!
  22. I went for a few passengers laps in my vx220 with a mate who is a national tarmac rally champion, if you think your fast, go for a drive with someone who is, its a whole other level.
  23. Certainly not carbon fibre, but Jack Royal steering wheels can reprofile your current wheel to a flat bottom and retrim with various materials.
  24. We are all men in the street, whats changed in our world, apart from a few quid more on a holiday, anyone earning less, lost their business, paying more tax etc. What we should of done is get out of this beurocratic load of nonsense years ago, single market is a great concept, the rest is just an industry payroll for politicians.
  25. Or just put up a load of non factual doom and gloom links about what "may" happen, see it how you want, but its not one way traffic dude and imho its a positive, even short term when not so long back there was talk of the business's folding or fleeing the country
