Manners

It all happened very quickly but yes it scared me more than anything else that has happened in my life. Iv been driving round a 1.2 fiat 500 hire car for the last week and I'm absolutely hating every minute of it

Thanks guys, I'm still very shaken by it, just hoping my insurance aren't going to be massive (======3 about it and offer me £3k or something. Iv got a very relieved and happy girlfriend and family and I'm just glad we get to spend Christmas together.

Unfortunately, this was my post. I am absolutely gutted that I have ruined my dream car, however, I am happy I got to walk away from the situation without seriously injuring myself. It happened whilst driving in a straight line too which baffles me really, can't do anything now except just perve on everyone else's zeds until the time is right to get another for myself.... If the missus allows it.

Thanks again guys, I'll have a look at those. I don't min paying a bit extra for the right tool. Then iv got it for life then havnt I.

Any particular brand/model that's worth looking at?

Worth investing in a reader?

Thanks mate I'll have a scroll through and have a dance tomorrow. Appreciate the speedy replies!

The car or me? Yeah it lost power, similar to how my old corsa used to go when the turbo cut out. The pedal dance? Is that something that can reset the lights?

On my way home today the Z Decided to have a jolt and then light up my dash to try and make me feel festive. ESP/Traction control and engine lights came on. After pulling over and turning it off and waiting for a while, the ESP/traction control light has gone out, however the engine light is still on. No difference in how it drives now, but I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else or something similar?

Bought one last night from asda for £6, left it in overnight and it worked a treat.

Missus was watching last night and paused it for me and called me downstairs, shes a good cookie. I managed the rest of the episode too, good TV...

Thought I'd raise this deal as we all love cars. So... on humblebundle.com you pay what you want for the games and get the codes to redeem through steam. All proceeds go to charity so its a few awesome games and helping others out too. Win win.

Just seen in whilst looking through a price list to get mine valeted. Shes looking pretty now she has her winter wax on

Haha! Previous to my titan I had a 750ti which was a tiny little thing despite actually being a pretty good card for the money... Bought the titan and it is what is says. Its massive. There's not a lot of clearance in my case, but I could have been stung! So +1 for checking it fits first!

Ricey, thankyou so much, I didn't even consider that pathway. It makes sense to study alongside my current career and I can stay in the game and gain experience until the time comes to move on and hang the tools up. My workplace offer an 'accountability' role in the company where you take on a specific area and organise contractors, maintenance schedules, work orders, budgeting etc etc each summer, iv always turned my nose up at it because there is no financial gain to be had, however the experience might be exactly what I need to push on later in life.
