  1. Right, basically someone has fitted cheap-ass caps to your valves that have seized on. Now you have to go to a tyre fitters, get them cut off and new ones put on. I still don't get what you're measuring.
  2. Check alignment, and drop a couple of psi all round.
  3. Wait, what are you doing? Or trying to do? Remove valve cap. Pump up to 35psi, as indicated on pump gauge. Replace cap. It's the easiest thing in the world to do on cars, except filling the fuel tank.
  4. Drive both 86 and BRZ, they are subtly different. I prefer the BRZ due to the keener turn in, but it depends on what you're after.
  5. Oh lord that's pretty
  6. March 22nd is the actual track day, just hoping for less snow this year I see you managed to grab yourself a harness bar over on ROC, good work
  7. Seriously? Just go to Santa Pod then. You'll be quicker off the line, and then he'll murder you with all that torque. Ultimately you've got the slower car, but I also know which one I'd rather be driving. And it's not the FWD scrabble wagon.
  8. Exactly. It's pointless as a measure of whether a car is 'safer' or not.
  9. Bloody hell, makes the 458 look tiny!
  10. HIG Capital are the one investment group, from what I gather. I've no real idea though, I'm only going on a bad Google translation and what STR wrote on FB.
  11. Needs a bigger wing.
  12. You said Capricorn, not HIG

    I need a 4x4!!

    Nah, no-one would be daft enough to buy a CVT
  14. According to STR, it looks like HIG Capital have bought the Ring. German linky
  15. Or AIDS. The bad kind, too!
  16. Probably only get a three star nowadays. NCAP really is a stupid rating. How can you rely on a system when they keep moving the goalposts?
  17. You would think that there would be a contract in place stating compatibility for x number of years. If not, car manufacturers are stupid.
  18. We clearly have very different definitions of growler! NSFW
  19. TomTom for me. I prefer the UI, but really there's no wrong answer. If you do go for a TT, make sure it has the ability to use ITN files: Couple that with TYRE, and you'll be able to plan routes with ease from any PC.
  20. Something my missus sent me this morning, that she's using in class today as part of her maths lesson:
  21. The amount of revs isn't the problem. It's how much you like having a clutch.
  22. Might just be the wifi bit, but my one definitely stays on with ignition off. My throttle controller did used to power off though, you're quite right.

    new citroen c1

    And that's why, as with the previous models, you'd always buy the Toyota instead: http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/News/Search-Results/First-Official-Pictures/Toyota-Aygo-2014-first-official-pictures/ Much angrier. Rarr!
  24. Don't leave the cable/box plugged in, the socket is permanent live so you'll drain the battery
