The fact still remains that they should be side by side to 150. This was not the case in that video which raises some questions about what exactly was going on and how much you should read into it.

In terms of 0-150mph acceleration the Veyron and a modern R1 or any of the 1000cc sportsbikes post identical times. The R1 may even be a tenth or two up. Bear in mind the former does it with computer controlled 4WD, traction control and launch control where as the other is fully manual 1WD. You...

What is the punishment for an illegal exhaust system? No de-cat'd or anything. Just loud and in breach of the noise laws. Points, fine or points and fine?

That is ridiculous! Mine was £340 with them and I am 31 with a full protected no claims and only down for 8000 miles a year. Car is parked on the drive but even if I said it was garaged it only knocks off a tenner or something! My post code is in the middle of the risk table.

Surely you will be putting it in whilst you still have a week or so of warranty left so it won't matter unless it is cheap stuff like pads or tyres.

They are a load of b*llocks. Don't waste your money. I've had a 1.2 16v and a 182 with the same shape headlights but one being standard and the other xenon and I can't tell the difference. Only thing you notice is a the purple tinge on road signs and people flashing at you cos they think you...

Then do what I did. Flog it and wait for the new HDMI version with HD drive and larger hard disk!

Thats the bloke that everyone said was full of sh*t when he said the CTR was better than the 182.

I washed my car just before the service and they also washed it after finishing the service. Somehow they managed to make the car look dirtier by washing it.

Yeah backwards compatibility is a load of hype and nothing else. I never did it on my PS2 or 360. The older games just looked too crap and I had already played them to death. I dunno why everyone is so keen on it as it just pushes up the prices of consoles. It was the PS2 owners that talked it...

That sure is true about the price! You would have to be an absolute nutter to pay £425 for that! I think most people are holding off for a price cut.

Don't buy at launch. Sony and Uk retailers are crapping themselves because where as the 360 and Wii sold out within 12 hours of pre-orders being available hardly anyone seems to be pre-ordering the PS3. They have loads left that haven't been allocated. The price is bound to be cut not long...

Couldn't tell if it was a Cup cos he was coming towards me and I had parked cars on my side that I was concentrating on. I can't remember if his plate was B* *** or something like that.

I've had this before when ordering TV's online. Twice they blatantly lied and said yeah yeah you will definitely have it tomorrow etc and both days I took time off work and got nothing. After mega complaining they admitted they didn't have it in stock and it would be in within a week. I...

Going down Mill Lane in Warmley. Racing blue 182 with stripes and a personalised plate. I was on my way to Maccy D's and he was coming in the opposite direction and raised his finger.

The NCAP tests involve a crash at 40mph head on into a deformable object and a light side impact test. These tests do more harm that good because they lead people to believe they are safe in their cars - and that makes them drive like c*cks. A 40mph crash into a stationary object is obviously...

Personally I can't understand why they prosecute the other person for CDBDD if the deceased was actively involved in the race. The charge should be the one for racing on the highway or whatever it is. The other person is death by misadventure. If they hit a third party and kill them then it...

Used to be 3 years but in many/most cases now it is 2 years. I lost a full NCB that way.

Same here. AVG. Still free.

To be honest the thieves don't know who is upstairs (could be three six foot geezers with knives or baseball bats for all they know) and it is only a 182 after all. Not like it is a brand new M5 or something so I don't think they would be taking the risk going after the keys. 182's are common...

Yeah I am shocked how fast that gets to 60 for a 1.2!

The first was ok. I liked the first missions but later on they sucked. The GRAW 2 demo was quite good but again it depends how all the missions are as you go through the game.

What a waste of time. All this xenon stuff is a load of b****cks. I owned the 1.2 16v with standard lights and now the 182 and can't tell any difference when driving at night aside from a hint of purple on road signs. It is just a load of crap so that people with small dappers can advertise the...

I am sure the PS3 n00bs on here are too busy flipping their giant crabs for massive damage to watch that. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidge Raaaaaaaaaaaaaacer. uh uh um um

I used to work in NH2. Once I drove in under the bridge behind some kid in my office. He drove off to park up in the other carpark and I went into the suspension bridge carpark. Some sod had stolen my space so I had to go for my backup space all the way up the top! I walked in and got to the...

Which carpark do you go in? I used to go in the suspension bridge carpark but moved up to the other end last October. If you are in my old carpark then you have my permission to use my safe space that I used for 5 years. It is an end space but crucially the space on the unprotected side is...

I was sat in my car one lunchtime and two RAF blokes got into a car next to mine and the passenger just flung the door open and it bounced repeatedly off my door. I didn't do anything at the time cos you can't even breath on someone at that pathetic place because of all the stupid little...

I think there were two blokes in the car although I couldn't see the passenger as I was in the outside lane and they were in the inside. Anyone? Anyhow I was one of the first people there to have an RS Clio. I talked them up all the time on the forums from way back in 2001 and now every bloody...

There are two Silver 182's - one being mine. There is also an arctic blue one without Cup packs and he is my mates brother and they both work there. I have seen a Silver 197 too and a few 172's. Coming home today I saw a blue 172 with a double exhaust sticking out the back but that was on the...

54 plate - 12800. Just put two new front tyres on. Wore in the middle due to over inflation I suspect. But I generally only go 0.5 psi over the book just to get a bit of extra gas mileage.
