    My New Car

    Fair play to you Ian, you've wanted one for ages and now you've finally got there, am really pleased for you mate
  2. 24K for a slipping clutch? I'd be surprised if it wasn't on it's way out! Some go for 50K miles, some go for 10K. Luck of the draw really.
  3. Your users have no taste at all then
  4. What size do you have them on your forum then?
  5. It's not really a matter of taste though, is it? Anything that much larger than the text that is also moving is going to be more distracting to the eye on a page. It's like me putting in a huge picture of Kelly Brook in the middle of this post, you'd be hard pressed to read the text first
  6. 18" for me. 19" looks prettier but the extra cost of tyres and making your car handle worse isn't worth it in my eyes. They're probably not going to be that much more uncomfortable than 18"s in the real world, but it's the extra weight that would put me off.
  7. ...which is also visually distracting.
  8. Oh I dunno, if we applied the same rules then I'd quite like a 911bhp Porker...
  9. They're more than twice the size of the standard smilies, and nearly three times the height of the text. That's ridiculous IMHO.
  10. They're not smilies, they're full on pictures! They're the perfect example of how to make a forum look ugly and unusable though
  11. I'd hide all the nails around the time of Jesus' death.
  12. He's loaded now mate, proper minted I tell you. Yesterday he was pooping truffles and diamonds right out of his sphincter. Couple more years of this place and we're all retiring. I quite fancy Monaco myself.
  13. Trouble is that all those subscriptions pay the wages of all the team here, so really there's nothing left in the pot. I mean, you wouldn't expect all of us to actually work for a living, would you?!
  14. We're far too busy clubbing together to pay for Max's petrol, room costs, BBQ, red carpet, clothing, and someone to dress him in the morning to do anything about this. Sorry 'bout that.
  15. Yeah, that's kinda what I thought.
  16. *Dan like this* I fill up when the car needs fuel, and for the odd quid here or there I couldn't care less how much it costs. What I could save over a year (£50?) I'd waste in my own free time driving around trying to find the cheapest place, and my free time is more important than £50.
  17. I've read this thread numerous times now and I still can't work out if it's genuine or dripping in sarcasm.
  18. Read the code (either at a garage for approx £30 or DIY by following the guide on here) and post it up.
  19. I'd be amazed if the Zed was en ex-hire or ex-lease car. I've yet to see a single Zed that fell into either of those camps. *awaits the rush of people saying they've seen loads*
  20. If they've never done one before, they'll want to give themselves a good day to cover their arses in case stuff goes wrong. Or it might be 2x men for 4 hours, not impossible if they want to get an apprentice on it as well.
  21. Sounds fair to me. £50p/h for 8 hours work-ish I guess? If you've used them before and trust them then I'd pay £100 more than some other garage who I didn't know from Adam. I can't remember what I paid for mine now though.
