  1. Which TDO? Turn the TCS, especially if it's raining. You'll learn so much more about the car. If you get caught running that lap timer, you're going to be thrown off, you know that?
  2. Some berk parked on a blind corner the other week, so I pulled up behind him and gave him a little toot to let him know I couldn't go past as I couldn't see round the corner. Did he get the hint and move? No. He got out of the car and attempted to shuttle me past. I didn't take the bait, as there's no way I'm chancing my vehicle to a stranger, so I sat there. He then came up being all shirty, as did his mate in the car behind me (didn't realise they were together), and basically I ended up calling the police. Well, I didn't, I just pretended to. I got a mouthful of abuse, but he took the hint and drove on when his mate pointed out that if the police came and there were two of them standing outside my door shouting at me, one of them parked like a c*nt, it probably wouldn't look too good for them Honestly, why park bang-on on a blind bend? Stupidity.
  3. It's not illegal to fancy kids, either.
  4. I don't get that at all. I'm strongly attracted to beautiful women, but somehow I manage to contain myself from raping every single one I see when out and about. It's not about what kind of person you fancy, it's about what kind of person you are.
  5. Plenty of places selling a non-kinect Xbone with FH2 for £330, bargain
  6. That comparison vid is just stunning.
  7. No, I got your point, I was trying to make a joke out of it. Clearly didn't work *grabs coat*
  8. Most people on the road are as good a driver as Schumacher. Shame it's Ralf, not Michael. Or maybe Michael as he is now.
  9. I reckon 90% of accidents could be avoided if people indicated when they were supposed to.
  10. Sounds about right. They don't have the resources to entrap people, however morally right that may be.
  11. Don't blame the people getting angry. Blame the idiots who cannot drive properly.
  12. If anyone thinks JC had anything to do with the purchase of the car, I suspect you'd be mistaken. That kind of stuff would be sorted out by low paid researchers well before the act. The presenters would discuss with the producers what cars they want, the producers tell the researchers who go off and find the cars, then the presenters are given a small selection that have been pre-selected to the budget and then the car is bought. No way was this done on purpose, unless after the car was bought someone clicked with the reg and they moved the filming to Argentina. Some bright spark in the press office then leaked the details to the media, and all hell breaks loose.
  13. I've not seen this programme, but I assume it's similar to To Catch A Predator? That was terrifying to watch, both in terms of how casual the guys (and it was always guys) were when attempting to arrange a meet and just how prepared some of them came to the house. Ultimately I agree we need to move to a law where naming and shaming before conviction in sexual cases is prohibited, as it's causing so many problems now that any arrest or investigation is taken as a sign of guilt.

    tyre size help

    This. If you don't reduce the front profile having increased the width, you'll end up with a balloon of a tyre.
  15. If no-one saw you do it, it's fine. Just don't leave a mark.
  16. I'm guessing the kid has never heard the word 'no'.
  17. I said to get one to save money. Spend a grand on a Mondeo, keep four grand in your pocket.
  18. Should've punched the kid back, but twice as hard. Bullies need to be taught a lesson.

    tyre size help

    No reason you can't run different sized wheels at all. It might look a bit odd at first, but as long as you keep the tyres vaguely balanced front to rear then you won't have too many issues.
  20. Agreed. I'd rather have something with personality than something dull. If you're doing dull, then you might as well do cheap dull so something like a Mondeo would get my cash. S-Type R is in budget, if you look hard enough.
  21. Aren't they also a bit lower to the ground? If they have PASM as standard, then yes. I assume they do.
  22. S-Type would be lovely. Any big Merc as well.
