I used to be on Giffgaff too, but as above the signal was never really good enough.

I've never got on with Assetto Corsa. I've tried like hell to get all the settings right and it still doesn't feel at all realistic to me. Don't get me wrong, you can't get the arse end out on Pcars in a lot of cars, but it's still realistic enough to not piss me off constantly.

Yeah, this. WOULD. NOT. RECOMMEND.

Bricksport.net is coming along beautifully :D

Still playing the absolute f**k out of this. Did a 4 hour enduro yesterday at Le Mans in a McLaren F1. Managed P3 which wasn't too bad considering I kept twatting the backmarkers and having to pit. Last 2 laps were epic as I had some suspension damage and had to reach the finish before P4...

How do they know it's beyond economic repair then?

Because they've already assessed it as being wrecked, they won't let you drive it away. Get someone to have a look at it from a garage you know, they'll produce a quote which then gets sent to the insurance company, who then approves the quote and the work then takes place. Assuming it's not...

Some insurance companies want to keep written off cars with no chance of buyback. Personally I'd have it repaired by a person of my own choosing for a fraction of the price that the insurance repairers want, the insurance will pay out if it's no longer so expensive that it would write the car...

They look great when they're sitting right :up: Wish I had an ignition cut limiter :(

If it lights up, it means the bomb's about to go off. Don't bother stopping the car, you won't have time. Just throw the door open and jump.

Lovely sound, sticks out a fair old way though doesn't it?

Who are you taking it to to get the belts done? I'd have misgivings about even taking them to main dealers, as even the dealers have cocked them up since they're used to working on 1.2s and diesels. Otherwise it looks like a good little daily :up:

I believe they're mail order only now, no garage services.

A few of my friends have used R&S Motors in Saltash, with good reviews. Dan ^ did mine.

Looking spot on!

12.5 if it's a 150w one. Mine was 150w and I'd have thought most are. EDIT: lol, beaten to it.

I'm off to work in a bit, I'll read it there :P

A proper harness bar will make things safer. The instructions for harness fitting state that the rear mounting points can't be too low, and for good reason since it can cause spinal compression if you mount them so your shoulders are the pointy bit of a triangle. The harness bar is supposed to...

Something smells fishy. Probably the .cod file they're uploading. Battery voltage 11.7v too. In fact, I've seen that laptop before....

'SERV' light doesn't usually come on on its own. Any other lights on? My bet is the airbag light as a result of changing the steering wheel. EDIT: or that cracked ABS ring. Synchro crunch 2nd-3rd is common, a sign that the box is on its way to needing a refurb.

f**k. That.

Whilst I doubt you'd actually sell the Impreza for an 850, it'd be awesome to see one spruced up to your standard.

In 2015 the RS's top 3 markets were: 1. France 2. Australia 3. UK Australia is RHD too.

Actually the aerodynamics of the estate were better, hence why they used it. IIRC the rule change was that rear wings were allowed after, so the estate's additional downforce wasn't an advantage any more.

They once cabletied a toy collie to the rollcage in qualifying just to annoy the people behind even more.

Where are we reading this, chaps? Link a brother up.

The rules changed IIRC.

I know the HSA speed championship has an MX5 class, A2.1, which is what my car is in, running 4th in the class, 20th in the championship under the last owner.

The fact I've just bought an MX5 should tell you how fun they are for the sort of stuff I've mentioned, although as above there are better cars if you want to win.

I'm 23. Zero regrets.
