I value what they say, but probably only because I've been looking at the pretty pictures for so long now. Truth is, I wouldn't have a clue whether they were right or wrong.... but they drive Ferrari's for a living.

Hmmm, Watchdog group buy! I would imagine they'd be interested in a mass compaint regarding one of the World's leading car manufacturers...

LCD's and Plasmas each have their own benefits and disadvantages, LCD refresh rates are improving all the time and newer models can cope with football and fast-moving images better. If you go plasma then make sure it is HD Ready, as lots of them aren't. If you're about 4 metres away, then that...

Or, double click on the torrent file, it'll load up in the bittorrent window thing but not do anything. Right click on it and select 'download' and it'll start. This is how it works for me anyway.

It depends how far away you'll be watching the TV as to what size you should get, normally 37" is the largest you want to go for living room use, with 32" perfectly fine. They recommend you should sit 5/6 times the height of the TV away from it (so if the TV is 2ft tall, you should be about 10ft...

I'd say that's a Cup, handle seems small enough to avoid mug status...

Renault's pricing may actually be the reason they lose their case. If they quoted a couple hundred then they could argue that the part is made of lower quality materials, but charging almost a grand for it dictates that it should last the distance. You reckon all us Ph1 owners can add our...

I'd go for clay...

Driver involvement seems to side with the Willy, and speed isn't much different. But then you'll probably have to fix it more often and it won't be as refined, with less goodies...

You're kidding right!?! The ability to change a gear at the right time and speed? What, so you're not meant to try to pull away in 4th and then change up into 5th when you've exceeded 20mph? That's where I'm going wrong then...

I wouldn't describe it as a 'kick' as such, but there is definitely a difference above 5k revs. The best way to feel it isn't just by accelerating longer before changing up from 3rd to 4th, say, but to just take on some - roads in 3rd, accelerating and decelerating.... then you definitely notice...

Bugger all difference, small enough to be decided by driver ability.

But then the Trophy is a lot more refined than older hot hatches, so you could say that even that isn't a 'true' hot hatch... Car's evolve, technology advances, and manufacturers have to as well to stay up with the competition. If a manufacturer decided to go back to proper old school hot...

Shenmue, MSR, Virtua Tennis, Soul Calibur all amazing games... sold my DC a while ago and wish I never had, don't get the same amount of fun out of a PS2 or XBox. SEGA are the daddies at making games, just crap at marketing!

I initially plan to just run my TV / DVD player through my standard stereo amp to my Gale speakers... not home cinema quality but it's plenty good enough for my small lounge.

I'd imagine the VTS would actually be a touch quicker at lower speeds, normally just about matches the RS's up to 60/80.

Both good cars. ST is better build quality, newer, better interior and arguably a bit rarer ATM, the 182 is faster, more fun, better looking IMO... 182 for me.

What's the best way to strengthen the standard 172 rubber mount? Mine needs firming up! Mr AA man just pulled the whole bloody lot off when my exhaust broke off, not sure how though, only took him 5 minutes!

Them pink 172's are nice ;)

http://media.putfile.com/Exhaust-clip-10-98 Nothing special, just me messing around with my phone and Putfile, sounds nice though. :) EDIT: Watch out for the celebrity cameo at 14 seconds!

Looks even better in the flesh, seems lower than the pics for some reason... settlement I suppose. Exhaust sounds nice driving away too, I want to hear my car like that! Cheers Day :)

Cool, cheers guys. The guy I spoke to reckons he pays a cheaper subscription than what he should for some reason, so I may ask how he's doing that, and just get a box of Ebay. Even FreeSat is better than what I currently have, which isn't even FreeView, can't get it in the middle of Exeter.

Mine lasted 6 years I think (from new), so had a good innings. I've put another OEM one for now, hopefully it'll break again after I've sold it on.

Right, had a bit of an impromptu (?) chat with a guy in the same building as me and it turns out we've got a communal Sky dish... bargain! :D What do I need to get it to my place? I've got everything down to the socket on the wall which is obviously for Sky (SAT), but nothing on my end...

I guarantee the new Megane will be even uglier... imagine that Clio-esque front but spread out. :dead:

Lol, I kinda waved and got a blank stare back, so I just kept the ol' hand moving up to the head and gave myself a scratch instead!

Supplies the glass hammers and left-handed screwdrivers... keeps him busy looking for them for hours.

They won't come back, too many other cars full of unprotected stuff. The thieves will know this particular owner will have removed everything of value, at least for a while.

:( Gutted to hear mate, it's probably because the car has been sat there every night for the last 10 months that they've finally decided to do something. You'll be picking glass out of it for months as well... :mad: I always leave stuff on display in my car, just lazy really but you never...

If you're going to refurb and sell them I'd say stick to silver, as it will attract a wider range of potential buyers, who would normally expect to buy them in that colour and then change the colour themselves afterwards. Alternatively, advertise them as they currently are, but for a price...
