  1. What. The. Actual. F*ck.
  2. I did a lot of that route when I did LEJOG in one day. It really is stunning.
  3. Blimey, I thought Will had trouble tying his own shoelaces, although that could be because he can't bend down that far Nice one matey
  4. I've seen appalling driving in both a sheddy old Fiesta with chav cans and in a 458 Challenge car on track days. I make zero assumptions as to the level of driving I expect from the guy behind/in front, as any one with a big enough chequebook can buy anything they want, regardless of talent I'd consider myself an experienced track day driver, but I'm not sure I'd be happy with overtaking on either side. I've been on days where it's been allowed in parts (Rockingham is the one that sticks out in my mind), and tbh it just encourages idiots to do idiotic things. I'm sure it does work, as lots of companies do it now, but each to their own on the comfort for that. Worst track day I ever did was at Anglesey with Circuit Days years ago, we had GT-Rs and Evos racing each other and undertaking through the the last corner by the pit wall (the single most dangerous place on the whole track!) but I went back with them last year and they had massively improved and it was one of the best run days I've ever done. I'd use them happily again.
  5. I really should get new glasses, I read that last sentence completely wrong...!
  6. I would, yes. If you drive on a worn clutch you can put hotspots on the flywheel, which would then also need changing. Now, for performance reasons I'd change the flywheel to a single mass one at the same time as doing the clutch any way to save on the labour costs, but if you don't want to then better to change the clutch earlier rather than later.
  7. Good article, nice find Graham
  8. Ding A F*cking Ling
  9. I care. She's taking up a spot that a decent driver could actually be using to further their career, rather than just being there for PR purposes.
  10. Well yeah, like the 911 and the BRZ86, you can get adults in but you wouldn't want to do hundreds of miles like that. The 645 isn't any better, tbh.
  11. Which part?
  12. 2+2, no way a GT-R is a four seater unless you're a midget.
  13. Depends on whether you want a coupe or a convertible, doesn't it? Then it depends on what colour you like. Then it depends on whether you want more power. Then it depends on your budget. Then it depends on whether you can find a decent example.
  14. The numbers are just order the tester writes things down in, they're not proper codes
  15. Meh, I've nailed the snot out of an FF and a 458 in the damp without traction kicking in, you must just have a very heavy right foot
  16. It's okay if you ban me, I know it's only because you're super-jelly of my awesome handbag
  17. What a crock. Utterly, utterly pointless. All they've done now is to ensure that any driver that has a crash that could possibly maybe cause a concussion (i.e. any crash) can no longer be allowed to race for a month afterwards. Well, isn't that just helpful. If I was Alonso, I'd be looking for a different set of doctors.
  18. Right, I see get you now.
  19. Why did you declare it? I wouldn't have. Household insurance has zero to do with motoring insurance.
  20. Another terrible choice. What are you all thinking?! Congrats Ian!
  21. Terrible choice. I mean, congrats Andy! :D
  22. Apart from being massively overwheeled, that looks pretty good. I wasn't sure at first, but I think the design would grow on me. Needs a little more attention with regards to the sizes of the lights compared to the body, but otherwise I think that's genuinely decent. Better than their Bentayga!
  23. Nice How comes you disconnected the battery?
