So the laptop at home is getting old as f**k and really slow. Toshiba Satellite L300. I think it was bought in 2009.
The battery is on it's last legs and the specs are a whopping 2gb of RAM and a 160gb hard drive. It's still running Windows Vista
Rather than splurge out on a new one, I...
I always thought they were like the Bush/Alba of TVs, but on looking to upgrade our 50" LG plasma, I came across this

The reviews for it seem to be fantastic. and it probably uses half the power to run than what we have...
My dashcam recently showed up that the SD card was not inserted, which is weird because I just leave it in there constantly writing over unless I need something off it.
So I thought it must be full. Swapped it over for another and that read the same thing. Strange.
I popped the first one into...
I'm just considering a Mk2 Clio diesel as a workhorse to trounce up and down the motorway, say 40miles a day. I know they came in 65bhp format, but is the 85bhp one from the Mk3?
I have seen Dci 100 parts mentioned, but can't seem to find any cars?
Can someone enlighten me. I have read up on these and, from what I can tell, it basically hides what you're viewing from your ISP.
My pal recommended Nord to me. He said it's as simple as paying £65 quid and you're covered for the year. However, do you have to pay that for each system you use...
So I have had my firestick for a good 4 years now. I've got a few apps loaded on it, but nothing much. However, its showings over 4gb of internal memory used up so less than a gb left. It seems to be getting a bit jittery when running netflix etc, so I guess it needs replacing. Can anyone...
So, ECP have a sale on at the mo (so do DFS) so thought I might grab some extra bits
I've already got 2 buckets, snow foam, AG shampoo, lambswool washmit and a large drying towel. Does anyone have any recommendations for clay? The car is in need of a run over it after 12 months of being...
Anyone ever owned one of these? There's something about them that I've always loved. Chavvy yes, appealing, very. Obviously Arden Blue is the most popular choice over black or silver.
Are they a strong lump? Do they respond well to fettling? Are the gearboxes made by Cadbury?
Can anyone help.
My phone installed an update lastnight and, since then, my Waze and Googlemaps is not getting a GPS signal. I had this happen a few months back and, from what I can remember, I toggled the wifi on and off, turned location on and off. Nothing. I've even deleted the app...
I'm on the look out for a replacement for my 320d and had the idea of maybe gong for a Megane. There aren't actually that many about for sale at the moment, but this one caught my eye:

Chopping in the E46 330i for something a little newer, better looking, and more economical

Not loving the lemon/champagne trim though, but luckily it has the black dash and carpets, so last night I drove to West Yorkshire to pick up an LCI...
Just clearing the shed and found my old one. Obvioulsy don't want to post and I don't have access to the for sale forum.
It's free to whoever wants to pick it up from Whitefield or Old Trafford.
Hope this is OK with Admin
So, any one using one of these?
I bought one a while back as they were on offer at £25.00. A few hack add ons, and I get every single sky channel, as well as the ability to stream all movies, brand new ones too. Sat watching Ted 2 this evening.
Highly recommend one.
Sold my VR6 a couple of weeks back.
It was getting a little long in the tooth and was going to need some welding for the MOT. I got a LOT of interest in it, which shocked me. maybe I advertised it too low?
Anyway, after that had gone I decided to jump for this

Sold it to a member off here who lived near Jesus a few years back. I wonder if it's stick knocking about. I'd love to buy it back
I see these are still as varied as ever. Names ranging from cliosport, to renaultsport clio, clio 172 etc.
Then there's the prices. Seems there are some decent 182's about for less money than 172s, as well as some crackhead prices.
Some mention cambelts, some don't, meaning you have to email...
So, the missus picked up the new Astra GTC CDTi SRi tonight (enough with the f**king letters!!)
6 miles on the clock

So, I recently sold the 172. Having had it for a while, I was getting bored of it, and the new job means I don't need a daily commuter.....
Having had a couple in the past, I decided to get another Mk3 Golf VR6
I only have the pics off the ads yet. Picked it up Saturday, had to put a...

I have a feeling my Ph1 poly bush has ovalled.
I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to put on the twisted Ph2 item? There must be a reason why it's twisted? Is it a better design?
Or will it not fit due to different boxes etc??
