Ahhhh that’s why I’ve never seen it then! Ignore my post above.

Nope, nothing on that for me, either if I start from the first new post, the top of the last page or the top of the first page.

Never seen that on mine, got a link to a thread in particular?

Ironically buying one unseen over the internet is safer than buying one you’ve seen in person, much easier to enforce consumer rights that way

Human Traffic was the film of my youth, perfectly captures the era and the music. I said nice one bruv!!!

No way at all, AFAIK. Type approval is set at the launch of the model, and there’s no way of changing it regardless of how many cats you may add.

Where would you like me to start? I mean I enjoyed it as I love the franchises, but it’s not a great film by any means.

Predator is indeed a classic, but it can’t hold a candle to Aliens. But then we start down the AvP conversation, and no one wants to go there

We’re no longer friends. JP is immense. I get chills whenever I hear the theme tune, which I have in my music collection so comes up occasionally in the car

Wtf is wrong with you people?!?! Independence Day is one of my favourite films ever, right up there with Jurassic Park and Aliens! Honestly love it so much, I can recite it word for word which drives the other half crazy when we’re watching it

Read the flipping manual

Works perfectly that one

I can’t seem to click the link, on iOS if that’s any help. Any else got probs?

tell me you don’t actually believe that?!?!

Without biting on your obvious hook, why? It’s only a Zed, they’re cheap enough to fix if something goes wrong and this is exactly when you can enjoy rwd goodness without doing anything massively illegal.

Are you kidding?! This is the best time to be driving a rwd car! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the MX5 and the 5er estate of late

Yellow and red combo? Hello, Noddy!

That car in the original advert has had new clutch, lwf, aem intakes and a remap: that’s easy a couple of grand of extras there. I can’t see how that’s bad value compared with a standard one that might well need the clutch doing soon anyway. Haggle another couple of grand off and that would seem to be a bargain. Five owners isn’t unusual for a thirsty sports coupe these days at all. People buy them then realise it costs a bomb to actually drive one properly!

Attention-whoring existed long before social media I get he’s your brother, but surely from what you’ve said even you must have doubts? Hey if I’m wrong then charity wins, and if I’m right charity wins. Can’t be a bad result either way.

ZP still ain’t coming here so I’m okay with that Look, they guy doesn’t even have a 600bhp car running yet, and from what you’ve said it’s still stock so half that. He’s shooting for a figure that only a tiny fraction of pro level tuners ever reach, so you can understand why people don’t think it’s going to happen. I’ve put my money where my mouth is this time, so can’t say fairer than that. If he does do it then fair enough, but right now this is screaming attention-whoring at its finest. It’s like me saying I’m going to put an 800bhp TT LS3 in my little MX5: totally doable, but equally unlikely.

No one said it was impossible. I just said it’s never going to happen.

Dare I ask what tyres he bought? And on what size wheels? Cos I’m thinking that anything shy of 335 width semi-slicks might have been a waste of money when it comes to putting 1000bhp down at all

Oh I bet they’re not. If they were, they wouldn’t have released one or the other so as not to cannibalise sales.

£50 to a charity of your choice @GranTurismoEra if he gets this finished in the next five years. And £10 if he doesn’t.

In every logical way, it’s never going to be worth the leap: it doesn’t do anything substantially different. But these things are our passion, and logic doesn’t count. If you want one, buy one
