It is definitely a step up in difficulty over the first game - which I’ve played through twice. The single biggest problem I have with it, is that every round is rushed. You have X amount of turns for a level, or X amount of turns to extract. It ruins the core concept of the game - making...

Wasn't there a post a while back where the earth strap looked fine but the car was a no-go. The owner replaced it with a new one and it was instantly ok.

Doubt it. That will be the deluxe model. I'll guess its more like cardboard tubing from several dozen bog rolls.

Affinity Photo has some great video tutorials on their website, showing you the basics. Or alternatively, they also do the official workbook for it, which is excellent - taking you through different sample images and how to manipulate them. There are different chapters by different experts as...

If you're starting out with photo editing - give Serif Affinity Photo a try. https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/photo/ I'm on that path now. While Photoshop is clearly the industry standard - there's a boatload of options that I'll never use. Plus the subscription based model would be just...

Kinda worried/concerned/intrigued as to what might be down there after nearly fifteen years of ownership!

Probably common knowledge to most people now, but Epic Games have their own installer and regularly give out free games on the PC. Currently they are giving away the triple pack of Batman Arkham games as well as the triple collection of Batman Lego titles.

Is the floor carpet easy to remove? Not glued downed everywhere? I take it that you just unbolt the front seats and away you go?

I have two cars slew the wipers slowly before... Punto GT - the alternator was knackered. Clio 182 - the battery was knackered. Batteries can be sods of devices, simply because even when failing, the majority of kit that relies on them continues to work. Of sorts. My last battery fixed an...

Interested to hear how the i30N does on track!

Nice. So going back to an Evo then?

I see what you're saying - but this is where logic just falls apart. I could have parked in the local supermarket for the last ten years and not had an issue. I then do a road-trip and into the wilds of northern Scotland, get reversed into outside a newsagent and then get 'black flagged' as a...

For me personally - if that's just a marker against your policy - then so be it. If you get penalised for it over the next five years, then that's out of order. Having paid into this corrupt system for the past 22 years (and never claimed) - I'd be livid if someone hit my parked car, I got it...

I do - I think it's great. Something SO not 2019 with all the drag-coefficients and sweeping lines of generic yawn cars these days. Also, when was the last one you saw on the road? It's something different - something to look at. It might not be desirable in the eyes of a lot of people, but I...

Thanks matey - it's definitely on my task list for this weekend!

Great stuff - thanks for the info, @Gus. I'll give that a try this weekend. Cheers, D.

Before blindly attempting to fix this - what would you guys suggest? I've heard comments about boot solenoids, etc - but is this the first port of call? Essentially the boot is locked at the minute with the boot button in the diamond not being able to be pushed in. The key fob flicks both door...

Could be this? I did something to mine when replacing the headlight xenon bulbs. Clicks now - but I CBA'd to take the bumper off again to look at it.

Mentioned elsewhere that we had an iTunes issue some years back. The online tech support couldn't fix it and it got escalated immediately (not we'll callback at some point if we can be arsed) to the next tier support in America. Had this bloke on the phone who literally must have been Mr...

What an absolute tool. A liability for all others on track. On a lighter note, that GT4 (?) sounded amazing.

Currently free on PC via Humble Bundle if anyone wants it? 2 days left of the freebie offer... https://www.humblebundle.com/store/dirt-rally?hmb_source=humble_home&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=mosaic_section_1_layout_index_1_layout_type_twos_tile_index_1_c_freegame_2019_storetile_dirtrally

Not been back on the PC version for quite a while. Think I need to revisit it.

“Can” they actually be replaced? 😉 I think more so in these current times where the likes of an Evo are the complete opposite of most people’s ideal car - it’s great to actually still see them about. I followed a silver VI on a flatbed on the way home last week. It still looks a great design...

That’s the long-game with Evos. The 182 is quite within the realms of most people’s driving ability. Not only that, but to exploit it, doesn’t cost a great deal. The Evo takes time to master - even for a capable driver, I’d say. And to see its full potential, you really need to track it...

Yeah - the OTT looks do work in its favour. Certainly if you get a good one, there's only one way that its value is going to go!

Never got the appeal with these...... at all. Chuck an R32 lump in the rear - make it RWD only, add some side-pods for ventilation like a Clio V6 - and make 100 of them. Then I'd get the attraction!

Quite possibly. Will be interesting to see what he replaces it with. Does seem like a very quick turn around between buying and selling it. Could be that he thought all the costs with Evos were 'other people's cars' and that his would be different? ;)

I can't answer your questions unfortunately - but that sounds like a decent buy you've picked up there. :)

Check, check and double check the injectors before going any further. Luckily, mine died on pot 2 and a direct replacement sorted it out straight away. But I ended up replacing the other three not long after - especially as up to that point all of them were Day 1 items. Heard some horror...
