I just bought a Samsung 55" LED TV last week from Comet - got it for an absolute bargain price of £1200 down from £1500. I've been weighing up my options for over a year and i've just been waiting to pounce as soon as i found a good deal. My only criteria is that i wanted a borderless screen, i.e. one with only a 0.5mm bezel. From reading online reviews, they all said Plasma's still offer better picture quality than the LEDs, but i've had a large Plasma for the last 5 years and i was ready for a change. My TV is active 3d. The glasses are £15 each which i dont think is bad. Active 3d tv'd are full 1080p HD when in 3d mode as the tv is displaying alternate full-res pictures, whereas the passive system used on the LG's is showing alternate columns of pixels per eye, per frame i believe - hence only 540p resolution. My TV has 2D>3D conversion too which can be used on any input source. It does a really good job... maybe 70% as good as dedicated 3D material. Playing XBOX in 3D is great... i even hooked up my N64 and played Goldeneye in 3D - but it wasnt that noticeable... I've bought a couple of dedicated 3D xbox games too... Crysis 2 and Gears of War 3. Only played them for 10 mins each but the 3D really adds another dimension to the games. As for Smart TV... as others have said, there are tons of other devices out there that can do this i.e. xbox etc - but what i didnt realise is the TV now sees my NAS drive simply as an input source. Like when you switch between inputs, it is listed here. . I have a LOT of films on there, and scrolling through them has always been a pain - but the TV has a search function so i just type the name of the film i want to watch in, and it finds it instantly... this is so much nicer than streaming through my xbox. All in all - im very happy. I wasnt interested in 3D or Smart functionality until i got them both, and i now love them.

As Chris says above, use thee Ultra Yellow theme as this seems to work in the most similar manner to the old site.

This is the one thing i hate about my zed. I have to press the catch with one hand while lifting the boot with the other to get into it. A few months ago i opened the spring things to find there were already pennies in them, so i removed the inside boot liner to get to the counterweight - and thats already been taken off too!

Sorry mate, no idea. Its just an unbranded rear diffuser.

Seriously, i'd beat Alonso with is own helmet if i ever met him, the smug c***. Alonso tweeted: 'I don't believe in miracles. I make my miracles out of the correct rules.' A few points which makes this whole story interesting though i think... 1. It says the FIA have until Nov 30th to review this issue. Does that mean for every race this season? If so, are Redbull watching every driver from every race now to see if somebody committed any kind of infringement which could alter the results of a race in their favour? Are these infringements related to just Vettel and Alonso, or could anyone be penalised/demoted thus pushing other people up to higher finishing positions? 2. The safety car - if there hadnt have been an SC on the 2nd to last lap, i think Vettel would have been > 20 secs ahead of the car in 8th, but because the SC bunched everybody together on the last lap, he should lose the world championship??! Not a chance, thats not fair.

The Chargespeed's looking good Steve.

So happy for Vettel. I detest Alonso...

Offers anyone?

The 1 litre works out cheaper from here; http://www.polishedb...n-gel-cat4.html (after delivery is added, that's free from Polished Bliss). They don't do the 500ml though. I also use this and it is indeed epic stuff, and not limited to use on just the wheels either. Brilliant, cheers buddy

Thats the best one yet i think... crazy stuff!

Cheers Ian.... Looks like its available over here, although never ordered from this site: http://www.detailedclean.co.uk/wheels-and-tyres/wolfs-chemicals-decon-gel-deironizer-500ml-255

Hey guys... Im just making my Christmas list for my family's Secret Santa do tonight... I need a new wheel cleaner having recently run out of my DoDo Juice Mellow Yellow. Last year i was talking to Clarkie34 about what he used on his Volks, and he said that Wolf's wheel cleaner was the best... i remember looking into it at the time and it was about £40 i think. However i'm looking for it now and i can only find 'Wolf Chemicals Nano Wheel Clean & Coat', and it's only £10 for 1 liter. Does anyone know if this is the right stuff? I need a PH neutral cleaner for use on my Volks, but this stuff says its acid based... (although only ph 5.5). http://www.detailedclean.co.uk/wheels-and-tyres/wolfs-chemicals-nano-wheel-cleaner-clean-coat-1-litre-259 Any thoughts? Ohh one more question, does anyone know where to buy Turtlewax Nanotech Extreme products these days...? It appears halfords has stopped selling them.

Good vid... Looks like you've got an open diff with only the 1 rear wheel smoking?

I've just cleared my messages now... what a ball ache! I only read zmanalex's post on the first page of this topic so created a new folder, and then manually moved all 1200 of my messages to it, 1 page at a time, only to find out that they still count towards your quota. So i just had to do it all again but deleting evertything this time... took about half an hour....

Ever tried being gay? You might like it. Thanks for the offer Stew, never realised you were gay, but no I've never tried it. It's not for me, but whatever floats your boat. I'm not actually gay, well not that I (or my wife) knows anyway! I think that 350z-uk should make it a joint objective to get you laid though! Won't work. I am my own worst enemy! The forum has been known to pay out before.... fill yer boots lad.

Big +1. Ive realised that there is no longer a point in the day when im not online. If im watching TV, im on my laptop, If im on the toilet, im on the iPad If im in a queue waiting to buy something, im on my phone

I may be wrong but i cant see McLaren ever doing this...? Redbull maybe, but with Ferrari it just doesnt surprise me.

Ohhh thats like my favourite realistic car...

Dont buy them, it will look rubbish.
