It's part of what keeps tension on the aux belt, if that fails you lose the drive to the alternator, power steering pump, etc. If you're unlucky and it gets wrapped around something then it could damage other pulleys. Worst case if it comes off and interferes with the cambelt somehow then you...
It's also a pretty uncompromising car - if anyone thinks they're going to daily it like a regular 200 it really is quite different with all the extra bracing etc. It's actually a decent motorway cruiser, but from memory it needs you to be engaged with it everywhere else or it'll sniff out a...
I dropped the seller a message about the Storm last night, haven’t had a response yet but this morning the advert has been taken down.
Guess it’s sold. Gutted!
22 euro for a brand new set of harnesses. What could go wrong eh?
There was this test a year or two back too, was pretty well publicised at the time IIRC.

The guy who sold them got an 18 month jail...
I dunno, it depends what you are after really. The screen on the X is clearly superior, but the 11 looks better in almost every other way - especially in terms of battery life.
You'd exchange the zoom on the camera for a wide angle lens which personally I wouldn't like, but I'd probably go for...
Camera wise they tend to be about half a generation to a generation behind the curve.
On the other hand, pocessor wise the iPhone has had a clear lead for a long time now, ever since at least iPhone 8 benchmarks show that even the very best android chipsets are well behind. Even now, the just...
Your own insurer won’t be interested in taking your side, they will just want to get the claim processed. You don’t really have any control over the quality of repair because your contract with them has all sorts of terms around using their approved repair facilities, etc
The key question is...
Personally I’d always go direct to the other person’s insurance if they’ve admitted fault. Less messing around with multiple people in the chain and they are well used to dealing with things that way so it’s no issue.
US prices don't include sales tax, UK prices include it (VAT)
But yeah, that aside I don't remember the pound to dollar price being more in pounds before - shows you how crap the exchange rate is and how hard they're having to hedge against future weakness in the pound.
Hoping to get an 11 Pro...
I've seen a few people get spoken to - only one got flagged but a few have had "chats" in the pits.
Generally if people are driving like arseholes I just back off and let them go, what gets really frustrating is if they're driving like arseholes and are really slow so that you catch them up...
Really, really happy with the momentums. They're not what I'd call broken in yet by any means, but they sound awesome even over bluetooth. Tried a few hands free calls and people say they can't tell I'm on a headset.
Expensive but they are a league ahead of any headphones I've ever had before...
Just picked up a set of Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 wireless for £175. Blew the budget big time but they’re supposed to sound slightly better than the 550s (although miss out on touch sensitive controls etc) and although the noise cancelling isn’t as good as the QCs again the overall sound is...
I'm looking for a recommendation for a decent set of headphones which I can also use in the office. Don't mind if they're USB or Bluetooth but these are the criteria:
Good sound quality for listening to music
Lightweight and comfortable for extended use, I could easily be wearing them three or...
There's a Nike+ app too. I went for it just because I preferred the band.
I got a refurbished 3 - it's a decent saving and with Apple refurb stuff you can't tell it's not brand new and it comes with the same warranty. Worth a look if you're not 100% sure on it and don't want to splash out for a...
It was ever thus ?
The performance oriented section was always pretty different to the rest of the forum iirc. I moderated on the VOC for a couple of years, left me with an undying respect for forum mods and admins - talk about a thankless ball ache of a job!
Fingers crossed on the MoT. Found the original sale ad on the VOC the other day, you did well there I’d say, looks like a very honest example. Haven’t been on the VOC forums for a while, they’ve not changed much, just all these newer cars on there now ?
Reckon the comets would look better than the original wheels if they were in silver, with them being dark they kinda vanish into the car.
There is something compelling about the classic look though. Tough choice,
