4.1 million signed a petition for a 2nd referendum is fact (probably all of Scotland ) and you are right, no point discussing who they were and whether they were even British 90% is not a fact, its pure speculation based on you what you believe along with the zero doubt in you're mind, which is absolutely cool, but lets not try and pass it off as fact based on a petition which was actually set up BEFORE the first referendum by a dude who voted to leave and has nothing to do with people changing their vote

Personally i would just buy a charged 350 but only you can decide if its worth it

As a pretty widely populated forum one think i dont notice a lot of on here is, had my zed nicked or written my zed off, so i just struggle to believe its a high risk vehicle that insurers are making it out to be! In 4 years i cant remember a stolen thread and maybe 1 or 2 written off. -
Is this factual, or purely opinion based., it may be a tiny majority % wise, but 1.5 million is a lot of people and i dont think you or anyone else can say 1.5 million people would change their mind, well of course you can as you did, but its not true My feelings on voting out havent changed one bit.

My thoughts exactly and I have asked, ebay said I can appeal but have to have taken the correct steps, I.e contacted the courier, I dont think thats my responsibility, its up to the seller imho, problem is and hence the topic, just making sure people are aware of ebay policy.
-
I asked the seller for information, I.e signatory, house number, but got nothing back and to be fair, if the dodgy driver just signed with my surname, I cant prove otherwise, thinking of phoning yodel and balgging it to say I have cctv to show it wasnt delivered.
-
I opened a case with ebay recently, a small item £30 but still frustrating, shipped with Yodel and apparently delivered and signed for, although it wasnt as I was in, yodel tracking does not show signatory name or number delivered, nothing from my neighbours as they always drop things round or i get a card through the door. The seller has gone quiet after offering a refund or replacement, I said I would have a replacement and ebay (in fairness) wont offer a refund because it says delivered. Just makes you realise how vunerable you are if some dodgy courier says they delivered it.

I fitted some but cant remember the exact size, if you have the indicators can you not measure them?

You want a mixture of revs, not just sitting on the motorway at x speed, that is not the way to run in an engine. Just go for a drive to some places you always wanted to go, mix it up, drive through some towns, drive some motorways, a and b roads, make a long weekend of it. Just avoid prolonged high revs, the odd burst is fine when running in an engine.

I dont think he expected a reward, his hero had just been taken out, poor little fella was devastated anyway, very noble gesture from Ferrari as well.
-
Mmm, says a lot about the thoughts on F1 that the last post was a month ago. Anyway, saw the best moment ever in F1 today and that was the little lad crying when Kimmi got punted off and Ferrari got him from the crowd to meet Kimmi and the crew, he will remember that day for the rest of his life, absolutely mint

I did the exact opposite with my vortech, sounded like a steam train, it was awful. Just check the inlet dimensions, if they are the same, its no problem.

When i was looking for my first 350 some 4 years ago, they were all similarly priced, there was the odd rogue cheapie but they were proper dogs or really high mileage, i did a fair bit to mine but sold it two years later for a little more than i paid. The problem is as they get older, more end up in the dog/bodged repairs/seriously high mileage territory, so you will find more cheapies, so it appears as though prices across the board have dropped, but in reality, to buy a nice one, they are still very close to what i paid 4 years ago. However as eluded to elsewhere, unless you are actively looking to buy and viewing in the flesh whats out there, advertised prices are just that and mean absolutely nothing as you really dont know what they are like until you are standing in front of them and what the seller will actually take.

Any excuse to load a premium. Its getting to be a bit of a farce these days imho. -
Interestingly they were discussing tyres during the MotoGp at the weekend, effectively they could do tyres any colour, but apparently there is a stigma that anything coloured wont stick like black, as thats how we have always known tyres. Why not just have jr18's they are near enough identical, there are loads of wheels that style, if your worried about cost and fitment.
-
There is definitely two different sizes for the 350z, its either 16mm or 18mm apart from the 22mm (i cant remember which)
-
I agree but your making direct claims (20-30%) and using a report and more hypothetical % to confirm your stand point which is exactly what you criticised people for, anyway, its all circumstantial.
-
Seems your first statement is right with regards to your last points There is absolutely no evidence or proof that either of those two statements will be fact, its all hypothetical. To be clear i am not saying it wont happen, but lets not start the scaremongering bs again please. No the BS was "fact" presented as such which was clearly not. The UK has NEVER paid £350k to the EU per week, the countries publicly available accounts showed this. I then speculated about price increases for supermarkets, prices have already gone up (again measured by the market as fact) in some food areas by up to 10% (again fact) - WTO rules have % levels associated with them (again fact) and I speculated if they came into play adding them together what the outcome would be - that's using informed data to predict an outcome, that's not BS. BS is telling something to the public as fact which is proven not to be. The UK never at any point sent £350m to the EU in fees. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I am not debating the 350 million, so lets leave that aside, as you say, there was a lot of bs claims from both sides. Its all hypothetical depending on the outcome, so being as the government dont even know our fate, how on earth can anyone else, therefore its all bs/speculation/theoretical, its not meant offensively, there is absolutely NOTHING factual about what will and wont happen, so in my opinion, at the moment, its all bs

We could have had a plan a, b, c and so on, but the good old EU deathstar could have derailed every single one, i still cant quite get my head around how this is ever going to be resolved, but so far, apart from our £ not going so far, has anyone really been affected?
-
Labour or Lid Dem for you then
-
You and TT are both spot on, but one thing you both seem not to be adressing is, the Tories gains are through votes, people are changing their parties, not just staying at home because their party is a showe of sh*t, they are actively supporting the party and its policies, which is worth talking about. Remember what happened to Labour, they lost votes when TB was replaced with GB, not gained a vast majority.

And the misery caused to 1000's of commuters reliant on the trains to get their job, or even worse, open the doors (excuse the pun) of their business? If the upper echelon have decided one man can push the button, thats their decision, jobs cant be kept just to keep someone employed (like the mines), if their business suffers because of safety etc again thats their business, thats for bosses to decide not the staff. i often wonder how many of these union employees would react if the shoe was on the other foot, i.e if they were running a business, i cant see for one minute they would keep people employed unnecessarily. i fully appreciate workers rights in the working environment, but no one has the right to a job. The misery of the commuter was not apparent before the for profit, Train Operating Company (TOC) decided to change the workings of an already safe environment, to that, that introduced risk. It's the TOC that may be intransigent here, not the employees. By strong representation in a unionised environment and, for no monetary gain, the employees are trying to keep the 1000's of commuters safe, not save costs, with no gain to the commuters. It is necessary to keep employees, if they are keeping the public safe, again, you show scant or little knowledge of public amenities. Would you take your children, or advocate, because you don't use them, that public swimming pools did not have life guards to save costs? But be happy to put more at risk through a misapprehension that guards are not needed. I do hope this is not the case. As said elsewhere, lets not make this an issue over "safety" claims, both the Rail Safety and Standards Board and the Office of Road and Rail (both independent) have said DOO trains are safe and present no increased risk AND meet LEGAL safety requirements providing the correct procedures are followed. DOO trains have been around for some 30 years, its nothing new, if there was increased risk to safety in this day and age, they just simply wouldnt exist, so lets not get weighed down by blindly believing everything unions spout as gospel.

Taxation flew up on cigs but smokers still voted for the ruling party? I agree though, any government should conduct some sort of policy research before committing. There has pretty much always been duty on fags though, same as fuel, i bet if there was no duty on either and it was introduced it would be a vote looser and thats kind of what i am saying, we obviously cant get by on the same old, increase tax and duty on fuel, fags and alcohol. I know its probably not popular but i think chucking actually money to those on social scary, sure they need help, but why give them cash to spend on fags, alcohol etc and not a credit card style top up that can be redeemed at shops/supermarkets for food etc

Reason, they are about the cheapest out there, by some margin
