    Been reversed into

    Personally I’d always go direct to the other person’s insurance if they’ve admitted fault. Less messing around with multiple people in the chain and they are well used to dealing with things that way so it’s no issue.

    Iphone 11 + Apple watch 5

    US prices don't include sales tax, UK prices include it (VAT) But yeah, that aside I don't remember the pound to dollar price being more in pounds before - shows you how crap the exchange rate is and how hard they're having to hedge against future weakness in the pound. Hoping to get an 11 Pro...

    Clio being driven like a dick at Croft

    I've seen a few people get spoken to - only one got flagged but a few have had "chats" in the pits. Generally if people are driving like arseholes I just back off and let them go, what gets really frustrating is if they're driving like arseholes and are really slow so that you catch them up...

    My New Volvo 740

    Liking that. Gotta have some blanks for those headlamp wiper spindle holes though, triggering my Volvo OCD :p

    Decent sounding USB/Bluetooth headphones with a mic?

    Really, really happy with the momentums. They're not what I'd call broken in yet by any means, but they sound awesome even over bluetooth. Tried a few hands free calls and people say they can't tell I'm on a headset. Expensive but they are a league ahead of any headphones I've ever had before...

    Decent sounding USB/Bluetooth headphones with a mic?

    Just picked up a set of Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 wireless for £175. Blew the budget big time but they’re supposed to sound slightly better than the 550s (although miss out on touch sensitive controls etc) and although the noise cancelling isn’t as good as the QCs again the overall sound is...

    Thanks guys, will take a look at those options

    Decent sounding USB/Bluetooth headphones with a mic?

    I'm looking for a recommendation for a decent set of headphones which I can also use in the office. Don't mind if they're USB or Bluetooth but these are the criteria: Good sound quality for listening to music Lightweight and comfortable for extended use, I could easily be wearing them three or...

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    They do like a little sip of petrol every now and again, can’t be denied ?

    99.9% sure it’s the same thread, yep. How come it lasted such a short time? Looked like a decent example.

    You could have waited a few months until the Golf goes back! I dunno, some people, no consideration :p

    Selling it yet? Asking for a friend. ?

    The Apple Watch Thread

    There's a Nike+ app too. I went for it just because I preferred the band. I got a refurbished 3 - it's a decent saving and with Apple refurb stuff you can't tell it's not brand new and it comes with the same warranty. Worth a look if you're not 100% sure on it and don't want to splash out for a...

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    It was ever thus ? The performance oriented section was always pretty different to the rest of the forum iirc. I moderated on the VOC for a couple of years, left me with an undying respect for forum mods and admins - talk about a thankless ball ache of a job!

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    Fingers crossed on the MoT. Found the original sale ad on the VOC the other day, you did well there I’d say, looks like a very honest example. Haven’t been on the VOC forums for a while, they’ve not changed much, just all these newer cars on there now ?

    Project Binky - mini 4x4 turbo celica engine

    Top quality innuendo and punning, plus some work on the car. What’s not to like ;)

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    Reckon the comets would look better than the original wheels if they were in silver, with them being dark they kinda vanish into the car. There is something compelling about the classic look though. Tough choice,

    I’d forgotten how traction limited they are :LOL:

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    That exhaust that’s on it now is decidedly non-standard, wonder what it is? Looks a bit gash with those twin tailpipes IMO. I enjoyed the BSR one I had on mine, nice noise without droning. You’re going to get a proper drainpipe on it, aren’t you? ;)

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    That's fighting talk @Panda. ;) Titans are nice, for sure, but they're not all that. Better than Volans though. And of course on a tighter budget everyone wanted the Perfo instead of the Columba because you could get the bigger discs under them for an easy brake upgrade. Ah, happy days. Bit...

    If @massivewangers doesn't have it, I have a real hankering for another one :D

    Project Binky - mini 4x4 turbo celica engine

    Enjoying the new vid about the conversion of an old library bus into a track car transporter. Some properly heavyweight stuff bolted onto that old shed! Hopefully we still get to see Binky 100% completed and given a good run sometime this year :ROFLMAO:

    My New Volvo 850 T5

    Love a set of Comets, they are by far the best wheels for an 850 IMO. It will look great with a bit of a drop, here's my old one on Eibachs and Comets. If that shows one thing, it's that mobile phone cameras have come a long, long way in twelve years :D Can you still get polybushes for the...

    5G rollout

    The reality of 5G will be very different to what people are used to in terms of coverage. The problem is that the frequencies it uses are much worse at penetrating objects - walls, trees, people, hills, whatever - than the older technology. It's those frequencies which bring with them the high...

    Still miss mine to this day, finding a good one is getting quite tricky now. Nice one (y) Needs boot spoiler though :)

    They got a chuckle out of me at 1:30 - properly heartfelt curse is always good :)

    Age is just a number. The older you get, the truer you hope that is ?

    WHAT CHIP AND WHERE TO GET IT FROM

    Yeah, the rear one is to check on catalyst efficiency and throw a warning if more crud is getting through the emissions control system than it should.

    Need help with resistor wiring for Renault sport seats in a 1.2 with no air bags in the seat!

    If the old seats don’t have airbags in them then is there actually an airbag connection on the car side which needs resistors adding? I guess this is actually the seatbelt pretensioners which the car is being fooled into thinking are still connected? If it is then I’d get the wiring done...

    Sniper Elite 4

    I don’t really do much multiplayer TBH, used to play WoW for years and had my fill of dealing with other players through that - also, I’m a bit s**t at FPS games ;)
