    Gordon Murray Automotive T50/T50s

    I can't even begin to imagine what driving that car would feel like. Just about the exact same weight as my stripped 172 Cup, but with a 725bhp NA V12 behind you, f*** off big tyres, f*** off big brakes, and 1500 kgs of downforce pushing all of that into the tarmac. That's mind bending.

    All in one computer

    I don't know what shell mode means, but you can set your laptop not to shut down/sleep when you close the lid, it's in the wWindows Power settings.

    Dilemma... C7 RS6 or R8 V10+

    I can't see why an RS6 would even be in the running for a fun car when you have another load-lugger. R8 all day long.

    I didn't go there intending to film anything, I certainly didn't expect to get a run up the hill in it! I had a brand new GoPro that I'd not recorded anything with yet and only intended on getting some b-roll about the event...so it was very much make do and mend! It was a weapon for...

    Alright everyone.

    Yer, welcome mate, I hope you stick around.

    Nice one, I've just subscribed after watching 60s of his Esprit tear down. You're right about his production, I winced at how long some of the things I saw would take to do!

    That's good going for such a large pricey things 👍

    That event is going to be carnage. Everyone will have a point to prove, it's not going to end well.

    Now that's super-light! Those rear wishbones!

    Ryan's Megane 250

    Percentage likelihood the word "gimp" features in any of these emails is, in my opinion, >90. I'm 50/50 on which party though.

    Sunglasses Ron’s Peugeot 107

    Ours was like that originally, took all of about 5 minutes to adjust. There's a huge community, and many YouTube video guides on doing any and everything you might need to on these. I watched, I stuck my arm down the back of the engine, twiddled an adjuster, clutch biting point fixed.

    Sunglasses Ron’s Peugeot 107

    Great purchase, as said above, I absolutely adore mine...apart from the fact that it now has an insurance tracker for my daughter fitted so I can't drive it how I'd like to. If I ever find myself driving into the office 5 days a week I'd buy one of these for the task in a heartbeat. Have you...

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    There's also the fact that I drink far too much coffee, so if I ever do go off script, I tend to ramble on for ages and spear off in random directions which makes editing take 10x longer. Besides, who wants to watch a 17 minute video of me talking about wheel center cap alignment. That was one...

    Cordless impact driver

    I find a light spray of silicone oil eases any golf ball discomfort, it also makes two a real possibility. But it's not pretty. HTH

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Yep. That's why cameras are always angled so as not to show the passenger seat base. Big font and alternate line highlights means a quick glance across gives me my next line. All the biro crossing through is from me working through the edit as I finally select which takes I'm going to use. A...

    I'm glad to be of service in any way 😘

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    That's going to feature again soon...because I've come to realise that while the conversation with Lewis was the catalyst, the actual reason I bought the Cayman was the joy I got from driving that slow little thing, which also happened to have the best throttle response of any car I've owned...

    Natural presentation :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Everything, and I mean everything that I say is scripted beforehand, and everything you see/hear me say is said probably 10 times before I think I've got a good one and move on to the next line. Clearly my editing skills...

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Surely you can't be serious?! I mean, I watch what I make because, well, clearly awesome :ROFLMAO: , but it's awkward AF really, certainly not worthy of regular viewing I don't think. It's honestly always puzzled me why I've got any kind of audience (most of it came from the RS engine...

    100% I've got an SGS one rated at 1.25 tons and unsurprisingly it managed to lift either end of my 1.6 ton Focus RS just fine.

    I wouldn't say anything, just cancel your renewal and go with Aviva!

    MarkCup's BMW M140i

    Balls. I Just went to buy the cheap cover, and the Topcashback promotion isn't pulling through. Never mind, got it for £141 in then end.

    MarkCup's BMW M140i

    I think it'll be beacuse of the claims history on the lowly underpowered 2.7. Dipping a toe into the online Cayman community does show an awful lot that appear to have bought on the basis of being able to say they've got/owned a Porsche...not for actual driving. So I doubt many have been wrapped...

    MarkCup's BMW M140i

    £354 with BMW Insurance. The silly cheap Cayman prices area coming back through comparison sites, top 3 are all around that level. It's with Aviva too!
