    5th Gear last night Car washing......lol

    I've used one for the past 10 years . Never had a problem . As long as the car is clean , which obviously it should be if you've washed it right and the blade is kept clean you can't scratch the paintwork . Better than any waffle weave for drying the car and only takes a couple of mins :)

    Virgin Media Broadband

    Are you blind or what , or just illiterate ? I stated they cap you for 10 hours . You said 24 hours . Nobody else mentioned 24 hours except yourself . And where it says " may " it really means they do and will . I download alot at all times of the day so i've experienced capping many many...

    Virgin Media Broadband

    Wrong !! And who posted 24 hours ? I posted 10 hours as in the information given out by Virginmedia themselves . What do the updates to the traffic management policy mean? To make sure all customers get the most from their connection, we automatically reduce the speed of the heaviest users...

    Virgin Media Broadband

    Virgins ok unless your what they call a " heavy user " , like me . Then their traffic management kicks in and they cap you for like 10 hours a day . http://allyours.virginmedia.com/html/internet/traffic.html I've been with em donkeys years and i'm too lazy to change because i have so many...

    Windscreen coated in titanium?

    ^^^ Thats where alot of people put gps devices . I have my Talex speed camera detector there as it would struggle to pick up a signal anywhere else on the dash , so he's right . But the real reason initially was for French toll road payments .

    Windscreen coated in titanium?

    They have a heat reflective coating on . If you look in the centre of the windscreen down near the dash you'll see a little square . The French have toll roads and have automatic payments as they drive through them , so they need a gap in the heat reflective screen to pay for it . Probably not...

    Bird poo

    Like Rich says . Get if off asap as it will etch into the paint . If the birds have been eating berries it seems to be worse and can be very acidic . Always have a bottle off quick detailer and a couple of microfibres in the car in case of emergencies ;)

    auto locking doors

    In the garage round the back when i'm not using it ? Do you live on Greenway Street ? I come along there quite a bit and i've seen a Nimbus R27 on there a few times recently .

    Mp3 splitters?

    Audacity will do it Mark , but it's not the easiest program to use , not if your after splitting the file 21 times anyway . You'll be at it literally all day . What about this one ...

    Tyre choice

    Ask yourself why ?? You get what you pay for . I've said it before and i'll say it again . I had both the Toyo T1R's and T1S's on my 172 and it was absolute sh!te in the wet . If you gave me a set i wouldn't put them on my car . The Toyos give good grip in the dry , granted , so will most...

    INSURANCE QUOTE HELP

    Your 18 years old and you don't even have 1 years NCB under your belt . I don't really see what the problem is tbh . You've very little experience driving a car , of course your insurance rate will be high . Your seen as a very high risk . It stands to reason imo .

    auto locking doors

    Thats not what i experienced when i stuck my 172 into a motorway barrier and span it 180 degrees . The airbags never went off and the doors remained locked . According to the manual they will remained locked in the event of an accident .

    Wash Mitts

    I prefer the Meguiars wash mitts with the mesh on the back , Halfords sell them and it's last me almost 3 years with lots of use . The ones from serious performance are too thin when loaded with water , i use this one on my wheels ;)

    FAO: Anyone wanting cheaper car insurance...

    Personally , i always phone insurance companys if i can rather than get an on online quote . Actually talking to somebody , especially somebody who knows a little bit about cars always seems bring better results .
