You realise that that's not BT's fault, and that's exactly what Sky did with the PL to terrestrial TV? No-one's holding anyone hostage, it's a free market and you can choose to pay or not. I choose not to. If you have the internet, there's no need to pay BT to watch CL football. It's out there, you just need to know where to google.

I am less puzzled now. Mixing tyres though...

I'm very puzzled.

They're SUV tyres, why would you do that?

No way I ever got 15k from the 050A! Used to get about 8k from the 050As, I'm already on 7k on the MPSS on a heavier car with no LSD and I'm being much more aggressive and I've barely touched them.

I guess the MPSS are okay, if you like that sort of thing. MPSS will give you around 1.5x the mileage. That's reason enough alone to consider them, the fact they're also give immense feel in both wet and dry conditions can be seen as a bonus. They are the pinnacle of performance tyres right now.

Seeing as how your posts are pretty unintelligible, that's actually going to be easier than you think. Sorry, I was at a wedding all day yesterday and missed this bag 'o fun, but no way am I passing up an open goal like that.

I was trying to work out if the keyboard was broken, a cat was walking across it at the time, or if he was typing with his elbows

Ah, I see now. You young rapscallions, you!

Pardon?

Ouch, not good Oil pump failure?

Now sold

Oops, missed your reply, sorry! That's not actually as bad as I thought it was going to be, y'know. I half expected you to say £12K or something daft!

Yup, fraud. Dishonestly misrepresenting the situation for personal gain. Fraud. Dress it up however you want, if it makes you feel better. I'm sure it has been done before, doesn't make it right. Would you also be happy to steal something from the shelf? After all, they're a big company and can clearly afford it, eh?

Brilliant, your answer is to lie? That's called fraud.

Lotus forum? You on SELOC as well by any chance?

Also, that's a very tasteful plate whilst still being personal, good job

You cannot make a car look newer. That reg is for a 1997 car, so is fine.

...is the correct answer. Couple of weeks you'd be okay with, but two months is stretching it a bit. I'd go in store on a quiet day, ask to speak to a manager, and get some kind of rapport going so he feels sorry for you and helps you out.

Exactly why. That will be 99.9% styling.

2 month warranty is irrelevant, the SOGA overrides anything there so you have 6 mths where the dealer has to prove the car was fine before you bought it, not you having to prove something broke. Haggle down as far as you can, take the spare cash and put it into a rainy day fund. Even £1K should cover most things going pop, this side of a complete engine failure which is hideously unlikely. These are very reliable cars, we don't really get any big issues on them. It handles like any FR car does in winter, i.e. not very well unless the driver drives to the conditions. Some will insist you must put winter tyres on or you'll die, others (like me) just slow down a bit and understand that crap weather isn't the time to be hooning. It'll be fine though, just use your head and you'll be okay. Unless you mean how does the physically survive when parked outside in the winter, in which case it'll be absolutely fine. This is no longer the 1970s, we don't have to worry about cars rusting away underneath us any more

FTFY

Sorry, are you suggesting someone has designed either the front or the rear end at all? Intentionally? It just looks to me like someone's taken a parts catalogue and thrown it all together to me. Still, that seat looks good at least. Having said that, Civics never were pretty cars. Hey, I was trying to be polite Tbh, I think it's a nice thing that they let the care in the community experience kids have a go at designing these things.
