  1. I've stopped watching, for the most part. I cancelled my Sky sub in August, so I'm limited to crappy C4 coverage anyway, and in a couple of years I'll have nothing. The trouble with F1 is that when it's good it's unbeatable, it's just that that doesn't happen very often. Maybe with the rule change next year, but I doubt it. It's like football: If it's on and I'm at a loose end I'll watch it, but I won't go out of my way to see it at all costs.
  2. What tyres is it on? But yes, those cars are noisy. Not as noisy as the 370, but still not quiet.
  3. Doom is epic fun! I caved and bought FH3 because Stevo kept pestering me. Good thing too, as I bloody love it now What made the difference was replacing the LHS thumbstick with the taller one on the Elite controller, made everything less twitchy and more controllable.
  4. I would. It's been gifted to Roscheat by an appalling lack of engineering quality on one side of the garage.
  5. I keep forgetting it's on there when I open the boot after it's been raining: Lift it up and the water falls off, soaking me every single time
  6. Refill via the expansion tank, not the rad. It works in an identical way to the tank you have on a central heating system, it's pumped round and any excess is pushed back into it. The tank is higher than the rad, look at the top level fill mark
  7. Does she take requests? Master Of Puppets please! Must've taken a lot of practice to get there, how long has she been playing again? And how old is she?
  8. Like every BGW just slapped on a regular production car, it does two halves of f*ck all
  9. Just wax so far, haven't got round to coating it yet. It'll be having a dose of SiRamik SC15 soon though.
  10. Thanks guys Total cost was IRO £2500, not entirely sure as I had the roof done separately aaaages ago. Still holding up very well, and we might well get the Impreza done too at some point. Not the same colour, mind!
  11. Always orange!
  12. As a very rough rule, if you can't see their front numberplate in your RVM then they're too close. Brake testing utterly retarded and the most moronic thing you can do, Also, when overtaking if you wait until you can see the entire car in your RVM then that's a safe distance to pull back in front of them. Was taught that years ago, really handy to know

    NEW Nissan Micra

    Better than current, yes. Still a generic piece of angled garbage though. Are Ford and Renault literally the only people who can design a decent small car these days?
  14. That's a lot of money per bhp.
  15. Don't forget Comrade Corbyn wants to repeal the Trade Unions Act that forces at least a 50% turnout in these strikes. What a hero he is! Personally I say that's not enough, it should be a 51% majority of 100% entitled to vote before a strike can be called. Bare minimum. And then line all those striking up outside and shoot them.

    NEW car!?

    Kept back, had to desperately chuck on the credit card, it's all the same

    NEW car!?

    ssssssshhhhhhhh
  18. Tbh I cannot see how the Pirelli score better than the MPSS in the wet. That's always been the biggest failure by far of Pirelli tyres. Maybe they just work better on FWD stuff?
  19. I just wish they'd use a RWD car for these things, just once. Or at least the same car year on year.
  20. Doesn't affect me in the slightest, but yes: Sack the lot of them. Can't stand people who go on strike. If you don't like it, go work somewhere else and stop holding people to ransom.
  21. No top mounts is why they're cheap.
  22. Sounds like you need a regas more than anything. Blows hot until you start moving, then you're getting cold air flow through the matrix. I'd start with that, and see what happens.
  23. Grundy is currently moving house right now, so his internetting abilities are patchy at best.
  24. Agreed. Legalise & tax is the way forward, but it's completely unelectable sadly. Maybe Labour should give it a go, it's not like they're getting back in power any time soon with Comrade Corbyn at the helm!
  25. Looks very similar to what Steve runs on his. Different brackets for sure, but otherwise I reckon that's very close.
