    Multiregion DVDs?

    Was just about to order a DVD I really wanted (Samurai Jack season 4, absolutely amazing if you haven't seen it!!) and noticed it was "Region 1, NTSC" and requires a multiregion or NTSC DVD player to use it. Will this work on my laptop or PS2 does anyone know? If not I'm gutted as can't seem to...

    Pressure Washers in Leeds?

    Hi...back in Leeds and my new place has no tap, so looking to just wash the car somewhere then bring it home to "finish off" e.g. spend hours and hours cleaning... The place I used to go to use their hose is closed, does anyone else know or recommend anywhere? I know there are loads of "hand...

    Touch up...

    Got my car back from the service yesterday, and noticed a scratch back to the paint just above the window on the driver's door, in a really noticable place. I touched it up well but still looks gash. Well I'm not happy with it any way...would polishing it down with Menzerna IP improve it (as its...

    Orane Phone Contract

    I have a contract with Orange that has about 5 months left to run, but I want to upgrade to their Dolphin tariff. Does anyone know if I can do this whilst still on an existing tariff, and if so can I upgrade my handset as I don't really like the one I have? Cheers for any mystical wisdom ;)

    Mineral Water

    Would using bottled mineral water (cheap stuff, not going to be using Evian!) be the same as using filtered water for rinsing the car does anyone know? Merci

    Cheap Alternative To Maxi Suds...

    Currently using CG Maxi Suds as a pre-wash soak, but seem to be using far too much and not working out very cost effective. Are there any alternative products I can buy in larger volume, Snowfoam is meant to be good I heard? Ta

    HD through Virgin Media box?

    Hi guys I have a 40" Sony Bravia LCD (V series I think) and have the Virgin Media HD box and HD channels. To me, the HD channels look really good but when I stay on them a sign comes up saying that I am not watching them in HD. I have checked the TV and the HDMI cable is definitely plugged...

    Evo Job

    Here is a link to the Evo detail I did... ended up spending about 5 hours on that fooker in the end for far too little money - but it was such a nice car couldn't stand to leave it in "ok" state. http://www.lancerregister.com//showthread.php?s=&threadid=164818 When I got to the car, it was in...

    "Quick" Clean...

    I went outside about lunch time today to give my old man's Boxster S a quick shampoo and QD, but 7 hours later I have return, after ending up claying, PC polish with AG SRP, wheels and tyres, windows... you get the picture! Annoying thing is I will probably end up spending the same amount of...

    172 36k Service...Suggestions!

    It is finally time for the big 36k service on the old 172... I was hoping some kind soul may be able to suggest a decent place to get this done in the South East somewhere, as have heard the Renault dealerships are lame and would like it done by someone who knows what they are doing ideally...

    Thinners...

    Have been working at a garage this week as got some free time, and took the 172 to the bodyshop round the back. I asked the guy there to take a peak at the lower part of the front grille on my car, I had suspected it had been resprayed prior to purchase as the paint was slightly different there...

    CG Jetseal 109, Pete's 53 and Mirror Finish

    Has anyone tried either of these products or heard any reviews on them? Sound quite interesting, but then again most products do! Would just like to hear from anyone that has had experience with them before spending the cash, can't really justify them even if they are good let alone if they...

    Xbox 360 - worth waiting for an Elite?

    I am really after a 360, but with the Elite out this year I was wondering what does everyone think - worth waiting for? I think the HDMI cable will make a big difference, like the huge hard disc and I am hoping they sort out some other hardward issues that have plagued the current versions...

    Some pics of the 172 and Boxster S in the sun..

    Just took a few photos of the cars this morning... in the picturesque setting of my drive! Will be looking for a nice dusk shot somewhere in the country soon as on the drive can't really get much scope and loads of shadows from surrounding walls... but anyway: Boxster S just had a wash with CG...

But after plugging it all in this morning - nothing! It isn't coming to life at all. Am I missing something, what is going on?! At the moment I...

    LCD in dashboard... spacked it!

    Been a bit of an idiot and to cut a long story short, ended up pushing the LCD screen about a centimetre back into the dashboard housing. Only problem is that there seems no way to pull it forward again... also annoying as the buttons are joined to the LCD so they have gone back in too...

    Sounds silly but hhow do you discern between the two Menzerna Final Finish polishes... they both seem to have identical bottles. So much so that I am thinking maybe they sent me two of the same in the set I ordered...any ideas?! Really can't see ANY differences in the two bottles and both the...

    Alloy resprays

    Just wondering if anyone has used any decent firms for repairing alloys, or alternatively know where you can pick up a spray paint so I can do it myself. I think the wheel must have been resprayed prior to my purchase and hasn't been lacquered well as the area has turned a lot darker than the...
