  1. Ah, clock spring is a term I've heard of.

    Do Wings work?

    It's not bollocks. Go read about the difference between a spoiler and a wing. Also you might want to look up just how difficult it is to create downforce.

    Pretty much. Proper wings can reduce lift, but very very few actually add downforce, especially not without other body additions. Not a slight, I like that spoiler of yours and I don't often like spoilers

    Your spoiler doesn't create any downforce at all. Drag yes, downforce no.
  5. Gotcha. Never heard of that before!
  6. Walk away. Anything you do will only highlight it, and then it's got your name on it. Sometimes it's better to walk away.
  7. Because it's better for them, too.
  8. Depends. Some of us drive our cars, whilst others just stand there and look at them
  9. Besides, you can't see the colour when you're sat in the seat hooning anyway!
  10. Buy on condition, not on colour. I said I'd never have a silver car as they're boring as f*ck, but look what I drive now! Colour is the least important thing about a car, it's too subjective. If you want a black one get a black one, if you want a blue one get a blue one. No-one can tell you which is better because neither is. If you want pics, there's a couple of threads here in the Media section or there's Google. I had a blue one, it was nice. It would've been just as nice in black, or red, or yellow. But not silver or grey.
  11. They're so pretty
  12. Edited due to new info.
  13. Brodit clips for me, sir. Nowt but the finest, albeit they're chuffing pricey for what they are.
  14. Does that actually work?! Not something I'd want to try, as you'd need a strong magnet to hold the phone in place but then would you want a strong magnet near your delicate electronics...
  15. The Motordyne warranty terms are irrelevant, as the end user has no contract with them. Regardless of what they say, your warranty is ALWAYS with Torqen on this one if you purchase via Adrian. Edited due to new info.
  16. I didn't even mention Salmond, nor anything about Boris and Dave. My point was about Sturgeon's choice of words now she's on the other side of an in/out referendum.

    Did you even read the question??
  18. Partially, yes. He has nothing to lose by taking his standpoint in that regard. Sturgeon didn't stand against Salmond though. Salmond had to step down as he lost the referendum and out his career on it, Sturgeon was the Deputy so just stepped up. And oh look! Salmond is now back anyway, creepy little f*cker.
  19. I was thinking on the way into work this morning (I know, a rarity) about any parallels between what politicians on both sides of the Scotland vote said, and what they're saying now. Sturgeon is an interesting one here. She was firmly on the Out side in the Scotland vote, but is committed to the In side on the EU vote. This can make for some particularly odd reading of her speeches, when you look back at them! For example, here is a link to her final speech before the Scottish referendum itself: http://www.scotrefer...ore-referendum/ Now clearly some arguments she makes for independence do not translate directly to the battle for an In vote for the EU, but look how she constantly says that it's much better to be able to decide your own future than rely on others. This is the opposite of what she's campaigning for now! Now, I actually stand with her in the EU vote, but even so it's this kind of double-standard back-tracking politics that make me dislike the woman so much. She wants everything both ways, and she'll use her diminutive yet passionate speaking talents to convince people. There's very little substance to her, but she's an excellent public speaker who gives off an air of dignity. I cannot fault her for that, but it's things like this that are worth remembering for the future. No real reason behind my post, I just find this kind of analysis of political coercing to be of interest. It would be equally as interesting to see comments from someone like Boris, who campaigned for the UK to stay together but wants us now to leave the EU.

    I've put part worns on before. No issues at all, as long as you use common sense.
  21. That bit, you mean? Sorry, I hate selective quoting. I should've been more precise in the exact part I was replying to, I apologise.

    I'm married. I have no idea if it still works or not, no chance of ever finding out

    We? Speak for yourself!
  24. BMW have some really decent stuff in their merchandising range. I've not seen the quality up close, but it's arguably better in styling and design than the Porsche catalogue.
