    Few shots of the new motor.

    Lovely car mate and I do like the interior's colour combo. Appreciate yours is probably too new to have any issue.... but how are you finding the quality of the leather around the seat bolsters? I've been looking at a few used TT-S's & S3s recently and have noticed the leather seems to sag...

    MBP to HDMI on tv sound problem

    I had this issue. Are you using VLC media player? In VLC on one of the options along the top (I think audio) there's an option to select output sound through HDMI. Having said that, dunno what would have happened to get it to work when you plugged it back in again....

    0% Interest Free @ Apple Store

    Yeah, I did get the emails and it told me I'd been accepted. However, it took me straight to a pdf with instructions to sign and send it back to them. I think it might have something to do with proving my identity and address though as they requested I send a bank statement along with the...

    0% Interest Free @ Apple Store

    Strange. For my one they sent me a pdf and told me to print and sign it, before sending i back to a freepost address. Don't hold much hope of getting my MBP before New Year now then..... :(

    My GTA

    Red one is lovely. Are these twin exhausts as standard? As they're two GTAs that live near me and both have quad exhausts. Is that a common upgrade?

    ^^^^^ I did! ;) But it was 8.30 when I did it and Barclays Capital closed their call centre at 8.00. Lazy bums!

    0% Interest Free @ Apple Store

    Grrr..... Bit annoyed now. Just tried to buy a MBP through the finance deal. Filled out all my details and it came to the final page and it said I'd been accepted. Then said to click the button and it'd take me through to a page where I could sign an electronic signature. Clicked on it and...

    Easy question: why are 197 F1's called F1's?!

    To be fair on the R27, it did basically have all the desirable options that you really should have been speccing (at the time) if you were thinking of buying a 197 for a cheaper price than what the options would have cost. Cup pack, recaros, tinted windows and some rather dubious stickers made...

    Football Manager 2012

    Can I ask what people are running their games on? I'm thinking of getting a new laptop (namely a Macbook Air) but if it isn't able to run FM 2012 with multiple leagues smootjly and quickly, it's gonna be a no-no! Any experiences?

    clio v6 to buy or not to buy??? your thoughts please

    I heard they catch fire quite easily. Can somebody post the picture that proves this?? In all seriousness, they're not the fastest. They're not the sweetest handling. However, for pure sense of occassion when driving one, I reckon they're probably not far off a supercar.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

    Umm... not really, that's just the ending of the story isn't it? I was hoping for an extra level or something. Campaign was awesome I have to say though.

    Really?! I feel really miffed now.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

    Applogies if this has been discussed already.... But for those of you who have played through campaign....... What is the reward for completing it? In MW1 we got the cool airplane hijack mission and in MW2 we had the museum. However, I've just completed campaign (finally got Makarov -...

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

    For those of you playing campaign already...... Does the voice-actor (the bloke out of Cliffhanger and Eastenders - Craig sumat?) who plays Ghost/Gaz make a re-appareance again as a new character???? He doesn't have much luck in MW games and will probably be dead by the end of the campaign...

    Hong Kong - The world's supercar capital?

    Yes. .......On the ex's camera and laptop. Fail on my part.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

    I don't get that though.... because surely by the time the auction has finished and the item has been posted..... it's practically release date anyway?! Unless they're only doing local pick-up on them?

    Hong Kong - The world's supercar capital?

    +1 Looks incredible. I've been through a lot of the photos and I'm surprised he hasn't snapped a Pagani Zonda. Last time I was in Hong Kong, I saw 2, including the daddy of them all, the Zonda R parked up (I'm sure they're not road legal). Highlight of the trip IIRC.

    Vtec y0!

    He's actually one of the mechanics at TDI North. Nice enough guy to chat to. I was following this car a while back onto the motorway, I wasn't hanging about but this car just seemed to hit warp-speed and dissappear into the distance as if I wasn't moving.

    New JAP Bus

    Looks fine to me aside from the dodgy filter. Interior looks reasonably well-looked after too from the pic. Also, good call on the GruppeM. I've got one on my FD2 and they sound fapping brilliant!!

    FAQ: LEE F1 2011

    Strange indeed, I'm finding intermediate level a bit odd too. (I gave up on professional as I was too rubbish) The intermediate level seems to flirt between being about "right" on some tracks and then will suddenly turn ridiculously easy on another track. Not sure what's going on....

    FAQ: LEE F1 2011

    Has anyone else been having ridiculously "clean" races? I'm 5 races into a season on career mode with damage on, AI on professional etc... , and in all 5 races, everyone has finished. No DNFs, no crashes, no safety cars, no incidents. I'm enjoying the game, but this is kinda detracting from...

    FAQ: LEE F1 2011

    Ah cool. Didn't know that. But will the game always re-charge it to 100% (assuming its not damaged) regardless of how much braking is done on the pre-ceeding lap? Just thinking of tracks where they always say its difficult to get KERS re-charged up fully. Does anyone know in race if there's a...

    FAQ: LEE F1 2011

    Been playing it this evening on the PS3, and have to agree with the comments in that the graphics do seem like a step back from 2010. Not sure why, but I'm really struggling to get the hang of 2011 on my G27. I've been doing much better on my pad. On 2010, it was the other way round. Was...

    Friday Afternoon Road-Rage, resulting in 1 x Dented Trophy, a short story...

    He gave you his car?? Amazing, I'd happily take a few punches for a free BMW. :rasp: In all seriousness, he sounds like an absolute nutter, but at least the police are involved now so hopefully he won't get off totally scot-free.

    So, who's looking forward to the 2013 Mk4 Renaulsport Clio Williams 230 1.6t Cup?

    Why don't Renault just take a 370Z, wrap a sophisticated European coupe body round it, sprinkle a bit of RenaultSport magic, badge it as an Alpine and put it on sale?

    Mrs new Car, dont laugh.

    You have a "boot-shute!!" Hero. I remember getting one of these a courtesy car when my old 197 went in for a service. I was so disappointed when the service manager told me the one I was being given didn't have a "boot-shute". :(

    Clio 200 - Silverstone GP Edition

    Not Clio related, but did anyone notice this bit about the Twingo? Sounds interesting if it'll eventually come to other Twingo owners as a "RenaultSport accessory" as it could suggest Renault might start offering additional performance parts on the RS range similar to what a lot of other...

    BUDGET ek civic build...

    I thought it was meant to be a budget build?! ;) Looks good either way, good work on the rear especially. Look forward to see how it progresses and I bet it quickly become quite awesome..... but no longer a budget build!

    Man in a BT Van hit me

    They're crushing it already? Didn't realise insurance companies moved so quickly on these things nowadays. I'd have thought you'd be waiting around for a few weeks whilst they investigate everything. Glad you're okay anyway. I take it you were driving alone and didn't have a passenger?
