    Is that the Space 1999 ship in the bottom pic?

    Old Games Collections.

    I remember some of the NEO-GEO titles (cartridges) that were released in the late 80s. Some were north of £250 back then - but to their credit they were the arcade ROMs with no difference between them. I believe they even offered a cross save function where you could play the NEO-GEO arcade...

    Changing lhd headlamps to rhd headlamps?

    Good question on that actually. Could you buy a LHD headlamp unit, but swap over the internals (bulb, ballast, starter, etc) from a RHD unit? Seems like the unicorn-spec dark grey xenon headlights are pretty plentiful in Eastern Europe - but are clearly all specced for the LHD market.

    Has anyone refurbed the original 182 seats?

    Thanks all. As most will have done - the bolster on the right side had pretty much crumbled away to nothing and I can feel the rigid plastic (?) section of the seat through it. Little surprise after 19 years worth of getting in and out of the car - but I actually do like the seats as it. Of...

    Has anyone refurbed the original 182 seats?

    Just curious. Or have most people just ditched them in favour of aftermarket options?

    I was lucky enough to get the Amiga 500 Batman Pack, back in the day. Batman itself was a great game, but I think The New Zealand Story that came with the pack, just pipped it. Definitely up there with Rainbow Islands as one of my all time favourite platformers. It came with F-18 Interceptor...

    Old Games Collections.

    We were lucky enough to have an Archimedes with Zarch on it at school back in the late 80s. Controlling that aircraft was tricky with the mouse, but it looked and played like nothing else - especially when the rest of the kit around it were BBC Micro B's playing Football Manager!

    Teardown

    Yeah, it's a good one. I was particularly impressed with the fire and hose effects on it.

    Old Games Collections.

    I'm amazed at times, just how long that certain magazines stay in print. More so in these days of digital content and people tending to prefer reading on multiple devices. I read an article over the weekend that mentioned Acorn User magazine - and somehow that stayed in print until the very end...

    I guess it wasn't their fault that the knew no better. ;) The C64 trounced the shitty Spectrums in every conceivable way. Preying that with each game load from tape, that the flashing colours around the screen border were the correct ones?! Was it blue and yellow for it to be working fine and...

    Gaming headphones

    I stick with wired for nearly all the peripherals. Headphones, mouse, keyboard - the exception being the XBox controller. Less messing all round - especially when Bluetooth decides to randomly behave like an arse.

    The spoiler really does finish that back end off.

    New Pearl White RS200 owner..

    I've owned a black car and white car at the same time and somehow the black one always looked more dirty!

    New Pearl White RS200 owner..

    White is such a good colour on RS's. I really wish they had that colour option when I ordered my 182! Welcome as well :)

    Rush Car Magazine

    Received my copy in the post today - very well presented. Fingers crossed that the momentum can be maintained. (y)

    Yep, we actually got it deducted on the checkout screen when we ordered it. 👍🏻

    The new TV thread

    Ended up getting a 55" Samsung S92C in the end, with a Samsung C430 basic soundbar chucked in for peanuts. Overall, I'm very happy with the picture quality and sound - the latter adding way more to the viewing experience whilst at the same time, not being making us utter cnuts with our...

    Storm Grey Clio Looking for Value Help

    Needs to be £2k less through having no boot spoiler. ;) Good luck selling it though - should be snapped up in no time.

    Rear bulb holder issue, brake light out

    Not bent any of the connector at the base of where the bulb goes have you? Or if it's got a build-up of surface corrosion?

    Rear bulb holder issue, brake light out

    So the bulb is swapped over, or have you got that to do yet?

    Tomb Raider

    Never really been that much of a fan of the earlier stuff, but the recent trilogy reboots have been very good. I'd probably say that the 1st game was my favourite in the modern offerings.

    The new TV thread

    Hi all, Currently looking into getting a replacement TV for our ageing 50" Samsung in the main room. Ideally, we're looking to increase it slightly to 55" and aiming for a budget of around £1k. Are there any suggestions from the wise tech-people here on CS of some good tellys out there? It...

    Tough decisions

    Is another option to put it in storage? If you like the car that much and it's clearly a coveted example - I'd be looking into keeping it, but off the road.

    GTA 6

    I have to admit, Rockstar did an amazing job of squeezing the X360 hardware to the limit in order to get GTAV running on it. They might have some other dev trickery up their sleeves in order to get GTAVI running half-decent on current-gen consoles?

    The attention to detail is crazy. 1st pic.... Then in the 2nd pic, you notice the pervy bloke using his camera phone....

    ??? I disagree. Rockstar is doing a good job at teaching kids valuable life skillz.

    Proof that Stallone might like men. Aside from the nonce socks & shoes combo - facing Sandra and looking at the wrong part of her? Get a grip man!
