  1. They’re just playing on time, hoping people will get bored and leave them with the money. They say they can’t issue refunds quick enough as there’s so many to do, which is probably partly true as there’s less staff to issue refunds (and you can bet the system isn’t set up to issue automatically), but even so many of these companies will be taking the mick. Only thing you can do is issue a final letter before action, and hope that sorts it. Or be very nice to someone on the phone, if you can ever get through...
  2. Awesome, a whole bunch of nothing.
  3. There’s more to this than a simple robbery, methinks.
  4. Utter c*nt gives his child an utter c*nt of a name. Shocker.
  5. But how do you prevent against that? Apart from never opening the front door you can’t, so whilst it’s scary to watch something like that ultimately there’s nothing to be cautious of. If someone is going to run at your door and barge in, then that’s what they’ll do: Let them grab what they want at that point.
  6. Were older Vettes not the same though? Build quality has never been a US motoring strong point.
  7. Oh god no, paint it black!

    Hankook tyres

    They’re decent enough tbh, certainly a solid mid-range option. I’d be happy to run them, put it that way.

    Hankook tyres

    The MO will be a slightly different compound to a regular one, but not so much as you’d notice. I’ve tried identical tyres in both N-spec (Porsche OE) and non N-spec, and I couldn’t tell any difference whatsoever.
  12. FFS looks are irrelevant when it comes to tyres, they’re all bloody black!
  13. Money no object for the best tyre: MPS4S Looking after the pennies and want a tyre that will last ages: MPS4S
  14. No, if you want a V10 this is what you need...

    Brembo Pads.

    May well be the same pads used between many vehicles, don’t be so quick to return them. Got a pic you can put up?
  16. Is it not just an evolution of the VQ series? I remember seeing some guff about it taking things from the R390, but only in the same way the four banger in the A45 takes some inspiration from the lump in Lewis’ car i.e. not very much!

    Brembo Pads.

    I’ve had to grind excess material from the non-friction material parts of pads before to get them to fit. It’s just manufacturing tolerances, nothing to worry about unless something really really doesn’t fit, or you feel that what you do to make it fit will cause a safety issue. Happens with genuine parts as well as pattern ones.
  18. I’m making the most of having a great excuse for avoiding people I otherwise can’t
  19. Well I’m bang on 40 so that’s me f*cked
  20. We’ve had three confirmed cases at my place, I’ve been in direct contact with two of them and about 2/3 of my wing has/had symptoms. Yay!
  21. Totally sarcastic post mate, just would be nice to see some of that gear in the prison too!
  22. PPE? What’s PPE? Sounds fancy, like something they should have at our workplace too...

    I did think that too, more than a hint of the Bmw-lite in there.

    F*ck those mock ups by a bored student are ugly as sin. They’d be lucky to sell six if it looked anything like that. The baseball cap look is not a good one for cars.
  25. Good call, forgot about that random one.
