  1. You can sleep in a car, you cant drive a house. But yeah, bin the car. Serious.
  2. Yeah, 'cos thieves never rob people in nice areas who have lots of nice stuff.
  3. Only a flaw if you were a cack handed flid incapable of holding a phone properly To this day, I still can't figure out how people could hold a phone in such a way that it would cause the noted effect. And they did apologise, they gave out free bumpers IIRC. @HaydnH: Good work with the maths, really doesn't seem that impressive when you put it like that.
  4. The letter wouldn't, but it wouldn't have been necessary either. Bravo Tim, it takes balls to admit a mistake like that to the world.
  5. Heh, I was trying to work the same thing out the other week myself, as I bought Jo an RB top and fancied a team one myself. Like you, couldn't decide if I like McLaren or Lewis, but decided it was actually the driver I followed and not the team. Glad I didn't grab a Lewis one now! Although, I bet they'll be selling them off cheap soon...
  6. Well well, looks like I was completely wrong about Lewis not moving to Mercedes and EJ being a one-man PR team. I'd love to know what Ross Brawn said to Lewis to convince him, must've been pretty special.
  7. The more I use my 5, the more I like it. I really wasn't keen on the extra length at first (fnarr), but then again I hated the shape of the 4 after using the 3GS for so long and yet it did eventually grow on me. The fact they've kept the girth the same (fnarr!) does help, although I'm still waiting for the first batch of apps to actually make use of the extra real estate.
  8. Do people actually still watch adverts? Haven't seen one for years, all my stuff is recorded and then I can FF through the ads.
  9. I suspect the Yanks are going to nick it. Just got that feeling.
  10. Said like a true Porsche owner! you got there before me Also said like a pikey old MX-5 owner The point stands regardless of what car you own: Fuel is the biggest running cost you've got, VED is nothing.
  11. Always. A bottle and a rag takes up no space at all in the boot really.
  12. Whether it's £270 or £500, it's still peanuts in the scheme of annual car ownership costs.
  13. VED doesn't go towards the upkeep of the roads. And yes, if people keep buying low VED cars then another tax will need to rise to balance the books. Like fuel.
  14. Plenty of QD and a microfibres for me. The more liquid, the less chance of scraping the bird crap into your paintwork IMHO.
  15. A dimmer switch is about fiver. Buy one and try it.
  16. DMS get a lot of good press, but none from enthusiasts. They have a good, solid brand, but some of their claims are either silly or their maps don't leave you with a safe margin. All second-hand evidence, but I wouldn't spend my money there.
  17. I know, I was making a point in general rather than replying to you directly.
  18. Looks fine, won't give any extra power unless you Uprev, leaves you open to hydro locking.
  19. I wouldn't get hung up on the charging issue unless you plan to keep your phone for 5+ years. Since smartphones came out, I charge mine every night or if it needs a top-up, then it gets one. It goes straight into the PCM3 system in the 911 as soon as I get in it, and if I've mullered it at work then it gets topped up in the truck on the way home. If it needs power then it gets it, no point letting it die or not using it just so I can connect it to the mains when I get in.
  20. Maldonado is a giant asshat. Having him up the front is only going to end in tears for someone, I just hope it isn't Lewis.
  21. Now you just sound stupid. You were doing okay until that last line. Seriously though, remove the vid from YT.
  22. Link? I'm getting an official Apple one, and they're not due out until next month. I'd want to see how good these knock offs are before committing to pluggin one into a £700 handset.
