  1. Hanging round car parks? Chav
  2. I'll just leave this here
  3. I actually really like the look of the standard 370 now, which considering my taste in cars clearly does mean it's ugly
  4. No idea, I suspect not for another month or so at least. They may even wait to see if the demand is there in other sizes before committing to producing anything else.
  5. Like I said, ignore this They ARE actively pursuing people now after the Beavis judgement, and they have a lovely log of outstanding things to get through if the ticket was issued after the law changed to make the RK responsible for the fine. Not only will you have to pay the fine, but you will also have to pay their court costs too. It's a really, really silly thing just to ignore these now.
  6. Nothing wrong with owning a BMW Just arrange your own meet fella, pick a pub & date & time and we'll see you there
  7. In all likelihood, you'll have to pay. I went to POPLA with one last year as I could prove that the signage wasn't correct, but in a place like that and knowing PE I very much doubt they've got anything wrong. However, no harm in checking that the sign is visible and that the lettering is correct and reasonable, as that's the only get out you have. Please ignore anyone who tells you to ignore it, as they're very much wrong and since the Beavis judgement PE are actively taking people to court as they know they've got a slam dunk case now. Personally, I'd pay up and move on. Life is too short.
  8. I'd never sell a WR1 for a 370. Ever. Doesn't seem a lot wrong with that car though, and like you say you're not exactly spoilt for choice locally. I say go for it, life's too short not to.
  9. Oh god yeah, you'll want engine work at that point well before the gearbox gives up.
  10. Yeah, about 600bhp Just get a standard 'box, your rods will go long before the gearbox does.
  11. How much power are you running? AFAIK Alex is on 600+ and still on the standard gearbox.
  12. You would hope not He's not doing the windscreen though, just windows and hatch. You'd never do the front screen.
  13. I run a lexan rear screen on the MR2, and in terms of cleaning it I've been exceptionally careful. Lots of water, lots of suds, very little touching with a cloth until I'm sure that there's practically zero dirt on it. So far, it's looking very good. Film I wouldn't worry about, just don't wipe it over with a dry cloth and I think you'll be fine.
  14. Agreed, but turnout won't be anywhere near close enough to make a difference on those kind of figures. I reckon we'll be lucky to see 50%. Nope, when you vote to stay with the UK you vote to do everything as the UK, not decide you don't like one thing they've done so you fancy another go.

    0 - 60 mph..

    30-100 is much better. Removes any silliness about how much you want to break your drivetrain, and focuses purely on usable speeds. Big stuff can use 30-150 instead.
  16. That's 90% of the population, at least. I meet very, very few people with whom I can hold an intelligent debate about politics, or finance, or anything really. There's an awful lot of people who are just incredibly blinkered or naive about the wider world around them. This place has a surprisingly high signal to noise ratio, which is pleasing. There's a good few forums I frequent where it's utterly painful to try and find anyone with even half an ounce of common sense!
  17. No. No more so than England should be able to have a referendum to leave them behind and re-join the EU.
  18. Use Photobucket. You will want upgrades for the DE. It's a 2006 car, just registered on an 07 plate.
  19. TV streaming over wifi is not the issue really, it's more down to the quality of the stream. Right now all online content in both HD and 4K is of such a low bitrate that wifi has no issues streaming it whatsoever (signal strength allowing, of course). It's when you want to watch something in genuine full-bitrate HD with DTS-HD sound that you'll struggle. A wifi connection or even a 10/100 Ethernet connection simply doesn't have the bandwidth to carry the data, so you end up with buffering/stuttering problems. Granted, for most people who are happy to watch in stereo with a compressed image that's okay, but if you really want to make the most of the format (or may want to in the future) then you really will need gig Ethernet at the very least.
  20. The rays from the morning sun raise my spirits, but drinking rehs can erase my memory as I raze my waffle tower with gusto.
