Very nice. I love things like that, it's just finding room for them. Most my larger scale models are now boxed and away, but I still have some of the smaller ones out, mainly Porsche, and of course my old 172.
They wouldn't do it if they weren't designed to go that fast, they would limit the top end.
Believe it or not it's incredibly stable, a lot more so than my 306 GTi-6 used to feel when going that quick.
Those kinds of speeds are dangerous no matter what you are driving though, I agree.
My 182 used to have a loud beep at around 140mph indicated on the speedo. Scared the s**t out of me the first time, I thought it was the b2 telling me to stop being an idiot at first. I never worked out what it was, obviously. I couldn't tell if it was wind noise or some kind of electrical beep.
I'm not sure I have the manual either, and I'm sure I didn't get the certificate with my previous 182.
I'll check for the manual tomorrow, it's too cold to go down into the garage and squeeze past a dirty car.
Cost cutting, they make a big enough loss on each console as it is.
They have a HD DVD drive in the pipeline too. Cost and time restraints prevented it launching with one.

Yeah, I did. I had a 182 from there in 2004, the sales guy was pretty good, Richard Goodhead. Then I got the Trophy from there last year, the sales guy was useless, he didn't even know the car existed, but i wasn't bothered, I knew what I was buying and he was just a means to an end.
Engine temperature sensor fault and an oil and filter change. I've had my last two cars from there.
Yeah, in a secured car park of course. No way it's going on the road.
Whoever has my old 172 FJ03 WOM kept the CS sticker in it as it's been spotted recently. Not sure where my 182 went though. BP04 FLR should anyone have it.
500 was a competition prize from Autocar, not sure if the winner has been announced yet.
I'm in Tricorn house up on 5 Ways island.
I'm surprised you've not seen my car over the last two days, it's been down at Renault Birmingham in Digbeth. The service guys have put plenty of miles on it. lol
I'm from Cannock, just up the M6 from you, but work in the centre of Brum.
I'm not big into my waxing like some, but you need to give the car a good wash, then use a product to strip any old wax and residue from the paintwork, even a new car has some, then you apply the wax.
I'm slack so...
A large portion is for the OS and software which runs on there, and an even larger amount is for developers to use to cache data as the hard drive is quick it works out quicker for them to dump a lot of data to the hard drive.
I did have the exact amounts somewhere, but can't find them now.
