  1. R8 V10 Sprint.
  2. wow, Cat N structural damage?
  3. Should have put a tenner on 300+ coins. A new one came out few days ago and rose 2900%. Missed it but some claim to have put £500. But theyre not cashing out. I did hear a story about two lost hard drives and a guy offering £500,000 to the council to find them in landfill. 😂
  4. Very suited username for this topic . I guess thats why it all came about. your right anyone getting in now missed the train. Now its just small investments for long term. Sudden rises most around November till last month on many coins including Bitcoin. Still all new for me but glad I looked it up. Im always watching videos and doing some checks. 6 months ago i reckon I would have just about got on the train. Its okay though patience is key... Ethereum and Cardano have great potential and are steady. Although Ether took a strong dive in 2018 and rose again last April. Any others youd recommend thats not overrated dogecoin
  5. Not too dissimilar to Self employed/Limited Contractors and many who didnt want to go that route. That fear of having to deal with HMRC. System is literally designed to keep people at a certain level. The introduction of IR35 and new tax rules every year. Surely it would be better for the country if more people could enter the 20%/40%/45% tax brackets then there may be a case for reductions further down the line. Maybe.... The 45% guys mostly have accountants anyway....Yeah with crypto the tax man wants in. Like the old days of soldiers banging the door down to collect half of what you made that month. It can still rise. According to the experts but its more steady than sudden in the case of the main ones. New coins are very volatile to mess around with. Bitcoin is currently stagnant for the last 2 months.
  6. To make it seem faster than it is? The marketing team has taken the action movie route. I think that was the digital clip from the trailer a few posts up. It does sound muted. I think it should be amplified a bit more. They can put an exhaust that will give it a more exotic natural sound although it wont be as loud as the pre 2015 370Z. I think from the A to Z list. The Ariya and the Z are whats left. Ariya will come first. Then Z early next year with pre orders starting in July/August I think. 6 - 9 months lead time
  7. Anyone here investing in this? Ive had a look i missed the boat which was literally from last April 2020 till now. Most have hit the peak. There are some that are still going up. It is high risk and not regulated. Lots of people are cashing out while some are holding out in order to make more profits Some crazy technology behind it all. More countries governments are investing in it. Many Corporations are accepting it. Im not going to lie im hoping to get some profits out long term. I think short term hikes are too good to be true. Even if you did become a millionaire overnight youd be paying 45% capital gains taxes. Unless you ran to the Cayman Islands You could get a spike then lose it all in an instant. Risk is the name of the game. Only put in what you are prepared to lose. Is it really better than a lotto ticket?
  8. Because its been written off or crashed possibly non structural damage. Insurance has paid out and the person has sold the car. Due to the previous crash its never the same value. £5,000 below retail is about right. This ones missing a few bits like the camera apparently. If youve tried to sell an accident damaged car in the past, its not easy at all. Most people wouldn't want it unless it dirt cheap. Having owned a CAT C back in the day with Electrics in a hot mess ill never own one again. Im even going to buy am electronic paint tester so I can inspect hpi clear cars to see whats been repaired on the body.
  9. Toyota are rumoured to be developing a road legal version of their Le Mans racecar. It could be powered by a Hybrid 2.4 L V6 and produce 986 HP. Click on the link below. Maybe some rivals will follow suit in future. Guesstimating 20-50 units if it goes ahead. Subject to business case obviously. Rivals: Mercedes AMG 1/Aston Martin Valkyrie https://www-motor1-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.motor1.com/news/506269/toyota-gr-super-sport-hypercar/amp/?amp_js_v=a6&amp_gsa=1#referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From %1%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.motor1.com%2Fnews%2F506269%2Ftoyota-gr-super-sport-hypercar%2F

  10. doubt it might get lucky. Needs a few bits. Try knock him down. Pics of original crash damage would be nice
  11. Sold my Z recently but by the time I get round to getting another itll probably be winter time tbh Might be at Ace Cafe only 15 mins away.
  12. "The 370 Zee". Congrats mate! Enjoy! Any meets planned?
  13. Subaru come take some notes on how to do OEM. Good luck with the sale. Looks legit!!
  14. Only the Clerk or Legal adviser that sits in front of the 3 judges has a clue lol. I remember she was flipping through the records to look for previous and said she couldn't find anything. Advised the judge of the bands and said its up to them what they want to give. As soon as they stepped out I asked her about whats beyond band C and she said there are other further categories not published they can go by.... They came back in after 3 minutes and they all whispered between themselves. Took the 6 points...they said dont come back basically The police lawyer was pi**ed....In the beginning she said to the judge "the speed speaks for itself" all animated like some Bollywood movie...waving arms about.....i looked over at her thinking why is she even here. Im just glad she had no influence on the judges The case before mine was a mobile phone case where he used it in standstill traffic. That one was a straight forward 6 pointer....The guy tried to use the band practice excuse. When the judge dropped the 6 month ban hammer I heard ppl shouting and despairing like someone died. It made me more shook for my turn. Fortunately the judges were in a good mood.
  15. still waiting for the clip bro! If you ever sell ill be waiting in the wings!
  16. Lol a lawyer actually could make your case worse. As theyll be trying to argue mitigating circumstances instead of admitting wrongdoing, apologizing and showing remorse... like a shorter ban instead of points etc as he needs to get to band practice aka second job to make ends meet. As is everyones right to take a lawyer in those extreme circumstances. I read somewhere that they are reviewing 12 pointers as ppl are still on the road with 24 points etc. Also mitigating circumstances im sure that will be stricter in future. Hardship has been used to escape where others have been given 6 month bans through totting up to 12 points 104 with no punishment sounds like a place where you pay the police and carry on. Anything up to 80mph gps should be allowed on a clear dry day with low traffic
  17. I did way over 61 in a 40. I got 6 points depends on your record and the judge. There are other factors like conditions and how busy it is. As the police lady said. The speed speaks for itself. It could easily have been a 6 month to a year ban. It also could have been 2 - 6 months ban (56 days to 180 days).

  19. Thats a long term listed car. He needs to put the price at £2500 or throw that front bumper in the bin where it belongs
  20. Just stay away from Monaco. You get tickets for breathing
