  1. Black, looking nicely pimped...even had a forum sticker on I was one of the photographers wandering about aimlessly.
  2. If I hadn't just gotten rid of the Z, this is the route I would've taken: [/url]
  3. mattross1313 - Man you got soul! Always loved D'Angelo's original. Nice interpretation.
  4. Thanks for the love guys. I've enjoyed my time here, even if it has been as a lurker! There just doesn't seem to be many forums about like it. *wub* Turns out I couldn't shift it. Had it on Autotrader for all of December, then the last 2 weeks too...ended up part exchanging it for...an M5. This is currently stage 3 of getting my dream cars out of my system. Lo and behold, on the way back from the garage, I had 2 phone calls inquiring about it! Sods law. What I did learn is dealers don't know do doo. They don't read emails properly. Don't read specs and certainly don't know about single mass lightened fly wheels "what's that noise? Sounds bad...". Still, their clarity was 'reinforced' in the end
  5. Wedding photographer here You cant go too far wrong with either. Bare in mind they are entry level SLR's. Even so, the quality will be much higher than your average cam, even with the kit lens. But you should ditch the kit lens. As stated above, either manufacturer makes a 50mm f1.8. BUY THIS LENS. Learn to use it at f1.8 and it'll prove to you why DSLR's are so amazing. You can get them for around £100. For that kind of quality from other lenses, you'll be paying loads more. Remember, camera bodies come and go, lenses should stay with you for life. Ultimately though, the camera is just a tool. See which one fits better in your hand. I shoot Nikon and struggle when I pick up a Canon.
  6. Nissan 350Z GT 3.5 V6 71,000 miles JDM. 53 plate. Silver. 18†GT Touring wheels. Brembo brakes. Massive service history. 2 owners. When I first purchased it. I put it in for a full check over as soon as I got it. I upgraded 1500 miles ago: Exedy uprated clutch Single mass lightened flywheel Rear drop links New drivers side window motor and regulator New battery Carbon wrap roof Carbon wrap wing mirrors Limo tint on boot lid and rear quarters Stubby aerial Alpine double din touch screen stereo – bluetooth, phone control, USB link in arm rest glove box – linked to steering wheel controls JL Audio sub and amplifier in glove box, crossovers in the door panels Garmin satnav professionally installed (removable still) in the cubby – I left the JDM control face in for effect Always run on Momentum fuel and always warmed up before taking it over 3000rpm. Massive history. Tax runs out this month, MOT until 08/14. Bad points: Slight scuff on the front bumper Drivers side bolster is wearing a little on the cloth seats Wheels could do with a refurb Boot arms could do with re-gassing Carbon wrap on the wing mirrors – The edging on the inside could be better stuck down Cubby lid close could do with a screw or two inside to make the action work better It’s really done me proud over the last year and never missed a beat. Really, I’d like to keep it but my circumstances have changed and could do with a 5 door. It’s a very reliable car, I just need a change. I bought this car a year ago and had some great fun with it. I’ve loved my time on the forum and the couple of meets I went to…and the pictures I took! £5000 for a quick sale. I’m based in Portsmouth.
  7. Some tips for you: Be warned, 'The Strip' is very deceiving it doesn't look like you have to walk to far but from experience, it's a damn long walk. When you arrive in Vegas and get in your cab to the hotel pick up one of the booklets in the back of the cab, these tell you what is going on and there will be coupons in there for free stuff like meals and drinks etc. Free things to do and see: It's great to go around all the hotels and casinos and have a look around. Things to see: Rio (get a cab there) in the Casino they have the 'show in the sky' free to watch and see if you catch some beads, it's in the far area of the casino near the buffet (which apparently is the best sea food buffet in Vegas) Bellagio: fountains at the front, there is a show with the fountains at the front of the hotel, but they don't run so often in the winter months because of the weather. Mirage: the volcano, there is a new improved volcano show out the front of the mirage, this runs as well every half hour or so weather permitting, and next door at Treasure Island there is the Pirate ship show, whores of whore island or something to that effect, but Treasure Island has recently been bought out so I don't know if the show will still be running. Luxor hotel: have a look around the luxor it's a very strange hotel, you must go into the main lobby area and look up to the top of the pyramid, check out the freaky elevators. Freemont Street: this is the original Vegas, with the Golden Nugget and other landmark hotels. this is a covered area with a free light show in the canopy every hour or so. best to go in the evening. get a cab to freemont street, and don't deviate from freemont street to far as it's really not nice just outside. Paid things to do and go to see: If you feel you have the time I would recommend the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam, there are many different trips to choose from, go to www.vegas.com and look at the tours, you can go on many different trips or experiences. make sure you check the timing of everything in case you have things planned. We have also been on the helicopter trip over the strip, it was quite enjoyable but only lasts 15 mins. Another place we have been was the stratosphere tower...it's a long walk. I would recommend going just before dusk and take your camera with you. There is a revolving restaurant up there with a typically french menu, you can view the menus online if you feel like eating there. There are also a couple of scare rides up there, go to the stratosphere website to see what they look like. I'm not sure if they still have the roller coaster on the top but we went on the big shot (during the day) which was great fun! Gambling: Keep an eye out for the reward cards, you earn points for how much you play, which can be turned into comps (meals, slot rewards etc) also make sure you know which hotels belong to which group, you have the MGM group (MGM, Bellagio, Mirage, Monte Carlo, New-York New-York, Luxor, Excalibur, Circus Circus) and Harrahs group (Harrahs, Caesars, Paris, Rio, Flamingo, Ballys, Imperial Palace). Sluts: I mean Slots! a couple of slots to look out for, we had great fun on the E-bay slot, it's a 1c slot and great fun to play. also look for a machine in The Venetian, it's called lil' ladybird and it payed out nice and big because it has stacked wilds, keep an eye out for the stacked wilds, and it's a 1c machine. they were kind of tucked out of the way in The Venetian. Shopping: You will not be stuck for places to shop while you're there, make sure you take a spare suitcase if you are going to do some shopping. We went out to one of the outlet malls which made quite a nice morning. Las Vegas premium outlets and Las vegas outlet center are good places to go, we got a cab to these places. Don't go to the Fashion outlet of Las Vegas in Primm, it was rubbish! and took ages to get there on a coach. There are huge shopping areas in Caesers Palace (my favourite place) Planet Hollywood (not bad shops here) Fashion Show Mall (opposite Wynn) good shopping for homewares and other items. Eating: Well if you have been to Amerca before you will know what the eating will be like. I love the breakfast buffet in the Mirage. I would recommend eating a good breakfast and we usually skip lunch, there is only so much food I can eat in one day. Mirage also has a really really good steak restaurant called Stack, but there are plenty of other places popping up here and there. Apparently the best evening buffet & Sunday Brunch to go to is in the Bellagio (good luck getting in there though, the queue is always to big for us to get in there) Also Wynn do a fantastic Sunday Brunch buffet with champagne. problem is you cannot book the buffet which sucks, we queued for an hour for the Wynn buffet once, only once I refuse to wait. if you like the tex mex food we went to Diablos cantina at the front of the Monte Carlo hotel, a great meal in there. Oh you must travel over to the Hooters hotel, for many reasons...the chicken is the best ever, we both love it. In Harrahs hotel there is a really good burger restaurant Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill, to find it, it's on the way to the monorail station. Basically, you can't really go wrong in Vegas - unless you stay in Circus Circus. Find a mid priced hotel, ideally mid strip (for location) the reality of a mid priced hotel means good quality food at a reasonable price (not extortionate)
  8. Not on the ps4 u cant!!!! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Positive mate, I have been playing BF3 on the PS3 for over 12 months and got to level 86 before buying BF4 on the PS3, all the controls were different from BF3 ... Doh.... as you say changing them to Veteran got around this so happy days but now on the PS4... changing the controls to Veteran does not change the fire and scope buttons, fire is now L2 and Scope is now R2. Its taking some getting used to... and Ive lost count at the number of times Ive stumbled across an enemy face to face and have him rake me with a P90 while I stand there and throw a grenade at him .... Oooops You know why they did this? Because the DS3 controllers were so jank, they had to move to the bumpers. Now the DS4 controller is so much better, they've gone back to how it should be!
  9. DAMN ELITE!!!! I remember playing that alongside Repton Infinity and Chucky Egg!!
  10. Goddamn. Been playing the One for a couple of weeks now. If driving GT-R on Forza is anything close to how it drives in real life...THEN GIVE ME ONE NOW!
  11. So he was given the bare minimum from the dealer to buy a like for like car - same age, condition etc... I wonder how this is calculated, and from where? Does that mean they could've looked on their forecourt for the same car and flat out given it to him?
  12. I've got a big case of the "I wants" at the mo. Even after just purchasing a new gaming PC! Madness. There's just something about the console experience playing with mates that makes it all the better...
