Having a massive variation of weather conditions and temperature over the last month or so had me wondering.... What (in opinion or fact) is the best external temperature for the RS engine to be running at? Personally, I've found that at around 2 degrees, cold and crisp, (not foggy etc) seems...

COD - Black Ops, 360. WTF is this all about? Haven't been able to get into a game for about 30 minutes now, rage!! Anyone else?

Ok, so it was -1 outside, but sometimes it's just got to be done.... Unfreezing the hosepipe by connecting it to the hot tap seems to work rather well FYI. I apologise for the quality of the photo's, I took more but they were even worse (believe it). The iPhone camera is certainly pants in...

I know we had a thread before, but it was some time ago and all over the place.... Who do you use for your code? It'd be nice to put together a list of good/trustworthy sites to use... From what I've seen: http://cheapxboxlivecodes.com Seem pretty good for price and look quite...

Had a Google, can't see anything obvious, seriously need CS g33k's for this one... This is our clients laptop, so I can't change anything and just need to try to fix it.... Laptop running Vista and using Internet explorer Uses BT Openworld for all of his email Uses 3 Mobile Broadband...

I've always had 15" laptops, whether they are widescreen format or not, it's always been 15", 17" is massive, and netbooks annoy me... The time has come to "become one of the elite" and I'm trying to choose a MBP... The base 13" is only £999, but the base 15"? £1499? Is it worth it, or is...

Struck a tasty deal with another member on here, and got these yesterday afternoon... Out with the old: In with the new: (Excuse the iPhone low light picture quality, more pics to follow :) ) I've also got some standard silver o.z f1's arriving on saturday, :o Opinions?

I'm about to sell some wheels to some one, the wheels recently had a refurb so I let all of the air out, one of the wheels has a "Flush Valve" but I don't have the adapter. I can't find anywhere that does, or anywhere that sells Flush Valves for that matter.... except online, but I need them...

Ok, so this thread has no real purpose other than blowing my own trumpet if I'm honest... :cool: Basically, I ruined one of my lovely wheels AGES ago due to an idiot on the road, and a week ago I finally decided to do something about it and make an exact replica. Tonight I finished it, the...

On the way home tonight I noticed mine didn't move an inch... Nor when I turned the engine off, blinding... Is it possible to just be stuck on something? Or is it fubar'd? Oh and there's currently a power cut here, makes me sad. :-(

My friend is breaking his 106 GTI, with the intention of getting a lot of hot hatches in and doing the same. He wants to be the Budgie of the 106 world if you will. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/hothatched/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686 He has pretty much every part available at...

Well, a while back I well and truly ruined one of my pretty painted o.z f1's.... I managed to source another wheel from a loyal CS'er but had no colour code or anything to match up against. After considering a lot of different options I decided to go for it and see what I could achieve anyway...

I want to sort out a meet before the weather turns proper nasty, we've still got some sun so maybe be able to get some nice pics, and obviously, none of us will be freezing our tits off. My question to you all, where do you want to see these meets? This part of the world doesn't exactly seem...

We've all seen the ph1 gear knobs get a bit tatty, and as it seems not possible to do anything with them.... I was just wondering if it'd be possible to carbon wrap it? Any reason why not?

Ok, I'm going to need a proper clio geek for this. I've just recieved a new seat bottom, I was just going to use the cover (as I burnt mine :o) but it seems to have been removed from the top half of the seat without damaging a thing.... now, my question to you all: How do they come apart and...

My boss woke up this morning to see his daughters car covered in gloss paint, someone's pretty much thrown a whole tin at it. It's a black car and white paint, so you can imagine the mess. What's the best way to get this off the paintwork? The car's a lease car and is supposed to go back next...

I've recently bought a new tv, 42" 1080p LG, and I'm trying to output from my laptop to it. My laptop is a widescreen format Dell, 1366x768, but when I select "output to external monitor only" I can go up to full 1080p output.... When I do this, it displays on my tv beautifully, apart from...

So, I have a feeling my FK coilovers may be slightly uneven on the front with regards to the damping. Is this something I can just change myself? I was thinking just wind them both to as soft as possible, then go say three full turns tighter on both, go out and test, then repeat? Is there more...

Apologies in advance for the long read, and this could go in GC, but does feature a lot of the Clio :o So as some of you know, I set off for France on Wednesday morning, with four planned stops along the way: Lille (D) Paris (E) Epernay (Champagne) (F) Brugge (G) The car received a service...

On Wednesday morning, halfway between Calais and Lille, gave me a flash of the hazards and a wave. (CS really is everywhere)

Spotted in Sidcup, a horrendously bright red Fiesta ST, driven by a man who once had taste....

Has anyone got it? Darling Daniel off of here needs it but is unable to get online ATM. Please help, Thanks, x

The service from Demon Tweeks was unreal, got a great deal on price and somehow it even turned up less than 24 hours after I ordered it :) The wheel looks and feels great, I'm very happy with the overall quality, not to mention it's lovely to have a new wheel that only I've used. :cool: I've...

FFS, I had an OMP wheel fitted before, no problem, go to fit my new wheel, disconnect the horn and re-connect the same one (for ease) to fit the new wheel, the metal "catch" type bit of wire stuff sparks, sets fire and falls onto my drivers seat. I actually want to cry. My mint 182 interior...

There are two types available, one a lot more expensive than the other. Is this because one set come with bearings and one without? I can only guess, because as far as I can see it doesn't say in the advert? Anyone ordered to confirm: Type 1...

Just popped into kwik fit (my local one are alright blokes) on the way home, tracking was £40, came outside, saw the car was lowered and said they couldn't do it, as they're machine goes inbetween the wheel and the arch..... Came home and just looked for prices of places that have that hunter...

Ok, so at current I've got an OMP, suede, dished wheel, and I don't like how it is wearing away and I'm not overly keen on the dish.... I've narrowed it down to one of two wheels.... The OMP GP: and The OMP Trecento The GP is a bit cheaper but nothing radical. Now the differences: The...

My passenger door can no longer be opened from the outside, unless it is first opened from the inside (to disarm the lock). Danny (off here) and I ,took the doorcard off to have a look at the weekend, but got nowhere, everything seemed normal as far as we could tell? Now I was going to get a...

Seen you twice now, once Friday night when I was walking to the pub and I drove past you parked in a driveway last night. Black 182, EVO and CS sticker in the rear window, black LED style rear lights I believe?

After having an altercation with a kerb one day a few weeks ago I'm having some serious trouble finding someone to paint up my spare alloy the same as the ones already on the car... So I'm in a bit of a pickle, my options: Have all of the wheels done again, colour unknown? (Black? Silver...
