Lower the pressures to compensate?

Why though? I don’t understand why someone who this would seriously affect doesn’t feel comfortable sharing those opinions on here, it’s not like you’re a newbie who we’d tear to shreds

Slicks it is then. Pointless running anything less.

Celica the most popular used coupe on the market? I’d suggest the BMW 3 series says hi.

What tyres are you using now? What power levels are you at? And how much do you hate your drivetrain? But yes, if you're only on regular tyres then any semi-slick will massively improve your launches. Proper slicks even more so, but they take a little more effort to get right.

As to why we should only have a single referendum on this issue, but we have continuous votes for the general elections, I would say that both are very different things. One is a single question on a single issue, to give a single solitary answer: It's not based on party politics, or on that of a single person. It's far more simple, and should not be asked more than once in a generation. Another is more general voting, one that most certainly comes down to party politics but also covers a vast spectrum of topics and issues that are perhaps less vital, less defining and something that can be changed from year to year if required. I think this is why some are saying that a second vote is undemocratic, not meaning it in a literal term but more because this was a very specific issue. I think I've probably used the term undemocratic in my posts about this, and maybe that's wrong. Maybe I actually just mean 'fair'. I don't consider it to be fair to keep voting over and over and over in a short space of time. Ask us again in 20 years if you like, I've no problem with that at all. I don't think we have any more information now than prior to the original referendum with regards to how damaging it will be to leave the EU: That was never really in question. Ultimately it more comes down to personal preference, and I very much doubt that a significant proportion of voters from either camp will have changed their minds after learning of what the deal entails. Do I have proof? Honestly, no I don't. It's a feeling from constant browsing and reading of various sites and news sources, and I may well be wrong. That's just how I view the whole thing. Is May's deal dreadful? No. It's exactly what we should've expected. That doesn't make it bad, that makes it realistic. It's more of the same, just more awkward and with more risk. Is a Hard Brexit going to be worse? Of course. It cannot be any other way. I hope that the politicians can find a way to smooth the waters before the ultimate deadline, but I doubt they will. I believe we're heading for a Hard Brexit, that very little can stop that now, and that we're going to suffer for years. But that's what we as a country voted for, and we will have to find a way to make the best of it. The best of a bad deal, if you will.

During the war...

I voted Remain, I’m in the same camp as you. However, I support democracy and the only clear vote we have had has had Leave as the winner, so that’s what should happen and be damned with the results. We cannot go around and say that the electorate has moved on and people need to put forward a reason to leave: We’ve done that. It’s how we leave now that’s important.

Petrol is cheaper here now than it was a month ago, so I don’t see what the fuss is about.

How do we know the electorate have moved on? The left made a massive noise on social media during the last election, and still Labour didn’t get into power. Just because there’s a lot of noise right now on BookFace of people calling for another vote, doesn’t mean that’s how the majority feel. I distintly remember everyone thinking Remain would be a landslide, due to that being how the internet said they were going to vote. That didn’t pan out well either.

What could possibly go wrong?

Don’t read it then? Jeez. Given its it’s going to shape your life for the next 20-30 years, it’s pretty important.

If we can get German milk for cheaper than we can produce and sell for in this country, then that’s a big issue for our farmers they need to sort out ASAP. If they’re that overpriced then wtf are they doing?!

Essentially just buy a Nikon or Canon in your price range and you won’t go far wrong. I prefer Nikon as their UI and button placement suits me more, but there’s nothing wrong with Canon. It’s like Android vs iOS, there’s no right or wrong answer. Lenses are probably more important, a decent 18-105mm lens will get you to most things, but you might want a 10mm prime or a 300mm telephoto one for specific stuff too. Arguably if all you’re doing is point and click on auto you could just get a point and click camera, or use your phone, but that’s no fun and doesn’t give you the same fiddling factor I bought a D90 about 9 years ago now, and a 100-300 lens to go with the 18-105 kit lens that came with it for motorsport stuff. That’s pretty much all I’ve ever needed, except for the odd time I could’ve done with a wider view lens.

One can only hope they all kill each other but nobody else, when the inevitable happens. They’re not even particularly good drivers, their lines are awful!

Personally I think they made their minds up before they even saw the deal.

I’m not sure why MPs are bothering to discuss the Brexit deal really, we all know it’s never going to pass in a million years. Might as well vote for it this week and get it out of the way.

Very wise words there Col. If we did have a GE now, whilst I’ve no doubt we’d see Corbyn at no10 there’s no chance it would be with a clear majority imho. They’d need the SNP at least for support, and more likely others as well to end up with some kind of uber-coalition. Can you just imagine the arguments amongst that particular rabble: It would be nothing short of utter chaos! Even if we assume that Corbyn tones down the nationalisation stuff, McDonnell realises money doesn’t grow on trees and Abbott finally learns to count past ten without taking her socks off, the sheer internal political arguments of a coalition with 2+ parties would ensure an even bigger failing of a Brexit. And that’s before we get to the daily business of, y’know, actually running a country.

They’re all a bunch of idiots. Why can they not understand it’s this deal or no deal?

And that £2200 could’ve been before interest charges as well, so that makes the £135 even further out. Good spot Col

This doesn't sound right to me at all. An annual policy is an annual policy, you normally pay for your premium either in one go or 12 equal payments. We need more detail really. As above, is it a black box? What have they said when you spoke to them?

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of oem cats failing on the 350. I’m sure they have, but it’s less than 1%. Unlike hfcs which seem to be about 50% failure rate! Make the other garage supply whatever cats though, don’t buy them yourself. Otherwise if/when they fail you know who’s going to get the blame...

Sounds promising then. Always worth remembering that even companies make mistakes, and they may have been spun a lie by their MOT tester and did not know about the issues, so just need a bit of time to fix the troubles. Not all companies are bad.

Battery. Get it changed.

I detest PZeros, and I hate Porsche for swapping manufacturers. B*stards. Don't get me wrong, if you've got sub-19" wheels then I'm still convinced that MPS4 are the best non-semi slick tyres to have, but if you do have 19"+ wheels then the MPS4S are a cut above.
