  1. No i wouldnt, as i wouldnt have them on my car - i dont like Bridgestones. I stated why i've gone for the Asymetric in my original post - i will be swapping all of my tyres to the Asymetric when they need replacing in the next 4-5 months - no sense in spending £450 now on a pair of fronts when i dont need to.
  2. So its that time of year again when i have to start mowing the lawns I hired a gardener to do it last year but would rather do it myself i think, as its not that much work - im just lazy! I've got a Flymo Hovermo at the moment which is crap (I had to empty it 17 times today when doing the front and back lawns!), plus it doesnt hover that well - i end up pushing it up and down the lawn with my foot. So - im thinking about getting a 2nd hand petrol mower... want to spend about £75 ideally. I've had a look around and there are lots at this price, but wondered if anyone has any experience with them? What are they like maintenance-wise? Do they cut well or do you have to keep re-tracing your steps? How do the cheap petrol mowers compare to the similarly priced electric mowers with wheels? Any comments welcome.
  3. Sorry Dad... i mean Dan. When my car flips over coming out of a bend, i'll let you know.
  4. I can handle Dan but yes, I could drive around on bars of soap and they'd be better than the maxis tyres on my winter rims.
  5. So i picked up a nail in my tyre today (2nd one in the last 7 months ) but it's right on the edge of the tyre so cant be repaired. I've got Goodyear Eagle F1's on at the car (originals, not the asymetrics), but these arent made anymore so cant get hold of them at all... However, having had a look on ebay i've managed to pick up a 245/35/19 Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymetric (new style), with 4.5mm tread on it for just £35 + £12 delivery Dodged a bullet there i think, although not happy that i've got a different tread tyre on the front axle now, but at least they're the same make. Will be replacing them all with F1 Asymetrics as and when they need it as they're a fantastic tyre.
  6. Mines a wierd one... i have a JDM but i swapped to UK tripple guage pod. I still dont have a clock on there but there is one that just flashed and flickers strangely, but i cant do anything with it.
  7. I got an iPad 2 for Christmas and I love it. Just use it for surfing the net and visiting the forum... It's perfect. I also watch downloaded movies/tv shows on it that I've downloaded on my laptop. It's all so quick and seamless that it's just a breeze to use. I tried a lot of other devices before I got my iPad and none compared in terms of the user interface. A surprising use I've found for it is taking it to family events and showing my holiday photos/videos etc - everyone loves it!
  8. That's sickening. Get a couple of Rottweilers to live in the front yard. The police really can't do anything...? On the second video you can see one of them put their hands down on the wall... Would be worth a check for fingerprints. I'd say they were 18-22yrs old too... They're too big for kids. That might sway the police too...
  9. Give her one for me Stew. All the very best to you both
  10. +1 they were perfect, and jake was good too. I really dislike this sky team. The main commentator just would not shut up!
  11. Enjoyed that, perfect result as a Mclaren fan. Cant believe the gap between Grosjean and Kimi though?!
  12. So was this you today....? Best bit is from 1:50 onwards...
  13. I always make a big effort to show my appreciation to garages for good service, going and getting the guys a crate of beer or something. Always a good idea to have a mechanic onside.
  14. Nismo on mine, happy for you to to take a video. Will be there on the Saturday
  15. Looks like a corvette rear end...
