  1. It's an excellent ad, it really is. I suspect the price might be a little off putting, given the damage history, however personally that wouldn't bother me if I was in the market for something like this. It looks to be a great and very honest car, and I love the yellow calipers. Really hope this sells soon, I think it deserves to.
  2. The race cars do. Manufacturers will, if they want to be allowed on. Road cars will on TF days if they don't want to jeopardise those days.
  3. Good. Ring times are ultimately pointless, I'll be glad to see the back of them tbh, manufacturers shouldn't be using them as a way of benchmarking their cars.
  4. No, it won't. Spoilers on road cars in general are for looks only, they may reduce lift ever so slightly but not to any degree that any normal person at normal speeds (myself included) would ever notice.
  5. Alignment should be checked at least once a year, if not 6 monthly if your local roads are crap. Those tyres are garbage, please don't put such horrible things on such a decent car No way in hell you can guarantee the car won't be driven in the rain, and besides which they're just as crap in the dry
  6. Well, at least we can rule out the piggyback then. Bad earth?
  7. Take the piggyback off, see what happens.

    Too much?

    Not just you, very odd!
  9. I wouldn't trust any government to run a bath, much less car insurance.
  10. Nice one matey!
  11. Sounds like the perfect series to me, except you forgot the episode where I drive the Macan and proclaim it as really very good indeed
  12. None of them, really. May is a bit dull, but Hammond loves Porsches so clearly he's my favourite. It's TG I don't like, rather than the individuals.
  13. I like Clarkson! His written stuff is brilliant, and he's ace on TV too.
  14. Oh hell no, I'm far too irritating to be on TV
  15. I really walked into that one there, didn't I?!
  16. Lucky sod, I wish mine did! They used to be fine on Whiskas pouches jelly for about 8 years, then they would only eat the Whiskas Simply Steamed, then only Applaws, then finally the uber posh stuff they have now. I'm sure they'll have me catching and cooking a whole chicken for them soon enough.
  17. Hammond came from radio, and May had already done some car-related TV work. All from their wikis, so usual pinch of salt. I want to see a professional on the show, not some random gobby Yootoober. Why does everyone think that generic bloke off the street will do a good job on TG? It's like me imagining that I'm capable of managing Man Utd just because I won the league with Villa on Football Manager!
  18. It's not for the third presenter, it's for A.N. Other role on the show in some aspect. Driver, feature bit, anything they want really. No way in hell would the BBC trust the most important show relaunch since Dr Who to a stranger It's a nice bit of advertising (not that it needs it), and guarantees a few more people will be watching the first new show.
  19. Welcome to the internet!
  20. I think Carly Simon wrote a song about me once.
  21. I am and I can't
  22. Have you had a look to see if anything is loose?
  23. No-one has said the driver was okay to be eating cereal. Clearly, that's not right, however it looked like she was in full control of the vehicle at a very low speed. Contrary to what some would have you think, some people are actually capable of doing more than one thing when driving. I used to use my phone all the time when driving before the law changed, and AFAIK no-one died because of that. Vigilantism is the bigger worry here in my book. That bloke lost his rag completely, when it wasn't needed. If she'd been doing 50mph and weaving all over the place then sure, his anger would be justified, but pootling along at 2mph? Massive, massive over reaction.
  24. If some bloke was that aggressive to my missus, regardless of what she'd done wrong, I suspect my temper might just get the better of me. At that point in time, eating a bowl of cereal in stationary traffic was hardly causing too much of an issue. A militant cyclist cutting across lanes without so much as a signal, just so he can get righteous in the face of a woman, I'd suggest was the bigger problem.
  25. Just added you fella
