  1. PMs can be read by anyone with access to the actual database. It's a faff, but doable. Admin, for example, could do this if they really wanted to. That said, I'm comfortable enough to say with a large degree of certainty that that's never happened here. If it did, then I think you'd quickly see a mass exodus when folks realised that PMs weren't P any more, so ultimately self defeating.
  2. No. This has nothing to do with them and all to do with you. Start a claim today, no need to wait for anything else. They may well advise him that he needs to cough up, but regardless he's not going to do anything until court papers drop on his doorstep.
  3. You've rejected the car, he has refused, I assume you've started a claim in the courts now?
  4. Well said. The irony of someone telling people not to believe anything they see or read in the media because a piece of media told them to is brilliant. You don't have to believe everything the Daily Mail tells you, but neither should you believe that the Illuminati control Rupert Murdoch.

    Number Plates

    Number plates look rubbish, end of. No-one has ever done anything to a plate ever which made everyone turn around and go "Ooh, that number plate looks amazing, what a brilliant idea!". All doing anything different does is draw your eyes to the fact the number plate exists, and looks crap. As such, stick a cheapy 100% legal set on there and be done with it. Make people notice the car, not the plate.
  6. I would, unless you want to be chopping and changing the cat once a year. Some people do (I did with my MX-5) so always an option.
  7. Lol not at all, it'll be bloody obvious to the tester that it's a testpipe and not a cat! All the simulator will be is either a resistor in the O2 sensor wire, or an extender to move the sensor out of the gasflow. It'll fool the ECU, but it won't fool someone looking at it nor the MOT sniffers.
  8. Same as any exhaust, if it has a cat then you'll be fine (as long as it's a decent one that does actually filter the nasties), if no cat then it's an automatic fail.
  9. You could do that yourself in 10 mins in Paint!
  10. Stubby? Checked the physical connection of the antenna lead into the HU?
  11. It'd look better without the watermark
  12. Three strikes and all that...
  13. In the convertible, yes. But still not on the coupe.
  14. Beady lovely
  15. 10 is the best OS I've ever used. 7 is great, but 10 improves in every single area.
  16. Absolutely. Thing is, I had zero plans to start gaming again when I bought this PC (indeed, it was an emergency purchase as the other one started being a knob and resetting itself every 5 mins) so didn't even consider it. If I'd bought something like a Titan then I'd probably have thought to check dimensions, but a sodding 980 should really be fitting any full size case these days. However, it was nothing a pair of tin snips, some duct tape and packaging foam couldn't sort out
  17. I happily switch between the two without issue. I've a Win10 laptop at work, an Win10 PC at home, an iMac for Jo, and we use iPhones & iPads when on the go. Really, there's very little in it any more, and both have their good bits and bad bits. The bad bits on both are so few though, I'd go with whatever is cheaper and 'feels' better. Surface Pro isn't a cheap bit of kit any more either though, however as you say it has the benefit of using a proper OS so I see no reason not to go that way.
  18. But it's a common name in that part of the world, like being called Dave Smith here or whatever. Why should he change it? Still, he got his five minutes I guess.
  19. You really would want all three. 918 as the every day, FLF as the weekend toy, P1 for the track. Make me choose just one and I'll take the Ferrari though. It's the ugliest, but I couldn't pick a V8 over that V12.
  20. Indeed, that's exactly what the case was by the time I'd finished with it! The card is now in and working a treat
  21. Protip: When buying a new gfx card, especially a powerful one, do check to make sure it fits your case first.
  22. I have decent VXR220 and 911 shots
  23. Those women really need to get over themselves IMHO.
  24. How dare those awful police not stand out from the crowd and try and catch people breaking the law!!! Who do they think they are??!!!!!11
  25. ONE MILLION DOLLARS
