  1. to the forum. Sorry to hear about the car, they are not all like that I promise. If the car is not at advertised you should be able to take it back and refund it otherwise the guys on here can help.
  2. Wow that is deep but yes It's the old nurture and nature bit. Trouble is most of us don't have the finger on the nuclear button or herds (probably appropriate) of gun tottin nutters following your every word, leaders from other counties getting peed off because he makes something up about their country for self preservation reasons and we don't have the power to influence the stock markets with our wild boasts or just plain made up stuff! Otherwise excluding the fake tan we could easily be him yup. That must be a fly on the wall TV programme crying out to be made!
  3. I have worked with plenty of people like that. The ones who make the most noise tend to be the ones caused the issue in the first place. 'it wasn't me it woz him! My dad's bigger than your dad'
  4. Ironically there were half a dozen Muppets in that video holding cans of fizz yet did nothing? Maybe they should have watched this video.
  5. My sparkplugs turned up today for the Rover and well look at the photo? What were the chances who decided on that colour scheme first the Scots or the Japs? I better be careful and eat the right one?
  6. I still like the GTR but always disappointed with the interior? It's very 1990s bland plastic even the revised version is still lacking for this price car? If they make it all touch screen it may even brighten it up as long as they don't go all Honda -E 1970s style Teak record player. Then again the interior of the Lexus Lc500 does look like it came from a discerning 1970s musicians flat insisting on high end stereophonic audio equipment. Looks ace
  7. Why don't Nissan get on the bandwagon and start knocking out carbon fibre (flavour of the month material) copies of the 240z but with modern underpinnings or go leccie like every other b******r is doing and charging extortionate amounts for bespoke interior's? You know swap the black plastic door cards for Bentley Mulsanne stylie diamond pattern leather or for vegans, velour (sorry I mean alcantara!) Just saying...
  8. I am sorry but if you are that stupid then serves you right Imagine if a fuel line caught fire and took the whole car out including all the spectators? Never ever open a bonnet or boot in that case, it feeds oxygen to the fire.
  9. By then the new flying cars will be available running on low fat bio yogurts
  10. It is odd isn't it? They go to the trouble and fancy marketing spin even sending Zed-pee on a bit of a busman's holiday to show off to the YouTube crowd and it's not going to be exported for some time? A bit like all the exotic stuff creates a stir then the market changes then ether quietly vanishes or reappears as an SUV. In 2 to 3 years time the leccie stuff will pick up and I doubt the design will be appreciated as it is now unless it's leccie by then?
  11. Who knows I think the first job is to cool everything off and calm everyone down, after the mess Trump left! Things like that don't change overnight but at least if you have someone more 'normal' and diplomatic there is a chance. They have to get away from gun culture for a start
  12. Don't say that, our pensions are linked to the share market and since Trump lost its started to creep back up and thankfully recovered the drop.
  13. According to BBC news just now Biden has won which is great for normal.sensible people however I have a bad feeling there could be a violent civil war brewing because of Trump's supporters? Looking further afield it's going to damage that countries image on the world stage in the same way we did with the Brexit farce! Whilst all this is going on all the nut jobs will take advantage.
  14. Unfortunately some people take things too far from both sides - madness! We hear about them out with guns which maybe something normal over there but sounds scary! But it is nice to see policitians passing comments on camera in total disbelief at Trump's actions and comment, that guy is a total nut job! Did anyone see Newsnight last night and the lady in Detroit being interviewed, asked if she was worried about the Trump supporters intimidating them as they count votes ' They can come here if they want, this is Detroit do you think we are scared of them'? Which I thought was superb! Hopefully things begin to settle down after all this finishes but I doubt Trump will let this lie for months to come.
  15. As a rule I have no interest in politics but the American voting at the moment is just so hilarious, Spitting Image can't keep up! Mayor of Philly and his big boy pants statement. Well done that man!
  16. On the plus side think of all those scientists and university experts that usually don't see daylight are now dragged on to News shows daily for their opinions. This guy is a young Prof Heinz Wolf (if you remember him?)
  17. If they say Zeeee one more time or Datsoooon or Neeeesaan. English speak English please. The worse thing about Zed-pee its a super spreader isn't it? Going all over the place and no face mask over its huge gob? Come on Neeeesaan you have a responsibility like the rest of us.
  18. I know everyone has mentioned the love it or hate it wee yellow (although I don't mind it) just wondering if they will go further with a full colour 70s retro palette? Dog poo brown (ok Russet Brown then) Magenta purple, Orange, Beige, Blood Red? Interiors lavished with pnstriped brown crushed velour seats or black vinyl for that squeaky slide your bum around a corner feel? 15 fag trays plus a nice Pye Radio and some formica wood effect surfaces, it's an easy sell, I would be first in line. Honest.
  19. He is hardly going to say it's rubbish and why did you choose this p***ed your pants colour, oh straighten that damn badge on the boot! He was probably concentrating very hard on the bike pedals he had to operate underneath, I mean it's a prototype after all probably no engine just Flintstones pedal car stylie?
  20. Perfect for scaletrix Nintendo etc but you would feel a bit of a k**b parking up at Tesco for the weekly shop.
  21. It's a good video review but hardly world shocking revelations that it looks very much a 370 underneath, this is what manufacturers do. They can't be blank pieces of paper everytime not even Bentley have that sort of money. Nissan got the zed right (mostly) why change the oily and grippy bits if they work. Have you looked at the suspension components on a zed? It's decent engineering, your average MAN truck probably has suspension arms thinner that Zeds.
  22. I was wrong 1920s it is! Look at this? Then you have this time travel films but I think they are fake.
  23. Yes yes Star Trek it was probably the pre cursor to the Motorola flip although the Pye radio from the Professionals in the 70s probably closer to what we have today. James Bonds Sat Nav in the Aston of course but generally all the distopian stuff going right back to the 1930s. I sometimes wonder if designers are influenced by these films with such gadgets. Remember the first time you saw a touch screen iPhone it was such a cool thing.
