    Back in a ph1

    FFS - cheeky b******s. I guess it could have been worse and they might have hit the front and creased that cherished aluminium bonnet. Would that dent be viable to be 'popped out'?

    Replacement sound system

    @Cue @iMZee - is this the ST005 stalk adapter that you're referring to? https://www.dynamicsounds.co.uk/connects2-ctsrn005-renault-clio-laguna-megane-modus-scenic-twingo-stalk-control-adaptor.html Cheers, D.

    Replacement sound system

    Thanks @Cue - what's the ISO female DD you mention? Sorry, I hardly know anything about this kind of kit.

    Replacement sound system

    @Goodj - I'm a total novice with stereo kit. Would the likes of that Pioneer you mention literally swapout with the cables that are currently connected on the Cabasse Audiotorium? I'd be keen on getting DAB on it as well, so I'd assume I'd need that additional aerial lead mentioned on that...

    Renault discontinuing parts

    Does such a unicorn-hen's teeth actually exist?? :P

    When a car blocks your drive way.

    Probably a simple case of not having the slightest clue about the dimensions of their car and spatial awareness of the QE2. I'll put money on the driver being 'one of those' who brakes whenever a car comes the other way. I just wish I had a Mad Max vehicle that I could ram the trundling cretins...

    SSD

    Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and go for a clean reformat. If you open a command prompt (Windows key + R and then type cmd) - and run the systeminfo command - it will show you the Original Install Date of the OS. My work's PC is currently reporting 23rd June 2017 and I'll be switching to...

    Sniper Elite 4

    Does that comes with the DLC as well Chris - like the Hitler assassination, etc? I really liked that one as there's about half-a-dozen ways to bump him off - all with their own achievement. Some are fairly easy - like his inspection of the submarine pen, where you shoot out one of the...

    The life of... SharkyUK's Trophy

    There's definitely a one-off episode on Netflix due, that will summarise the trials and tribulations of Andy and a certain off-red Clio. There's a strange and weird side of me that doesn't want to see this car finished. Almost like standing back and admiring those ceiling paintings on Venetian...

    PS4 Memory Upgrade

    Assuming there are no OS/file structure limitations about sticking a new drive into a PS4, as I don't have one - I would definitely recommend going down the SSD route. I would rather have a 480GB SSD fitted than a 2TB SATA fitted to any gaming device. Tried the swap back about two years ago for...

    Engine light on following bumper removal/replacement for Xenon ballast change?

    I definitely did something to my CC when I swapped the xenon bulbs out recently. The CC is more 'clicky' in sound than it was before.

    Haha! I was thinking whether or not you were one of the 'select' people who at one time owned a Punto GT, perhaps? There's a few of us on here - but we're very thin on the ground - almost on par with the same likelihood of seeing one in decent condition on the road!

    By the way - what does the 'GT' in your forum name refer to? :)

    UK Clio Cup to end after 2019

    While I'm no fan of Minis - it's good to see that there will be some correlation between the cars prowess on the road and those on the track. It's pretty obvious that the majority of sales are marketing driven - an association with the badge rather than anything to do with the car itself. Get...

    Arch liner nightmare for daily

    If you want to cry - look into the pricing of replacement Clio V6 arch-liners and under-tray sections!

    Adaptronic 420d ecu

    Few do these days - but the adapters aren't expensive - assuming it's DB9 serial? Probably a lot cheaper on eBay too.... https://www.pcworldbusiness.co.uk/buy-rent/P238560P?cidp=Froogle&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1NbhBRCBARIsAKOTmUsRTvDSFUeZQMhqMVmCwZEHHzOa0A9vBoOnGsd8d9riIi1P5TCTbncaAkHMEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

    Escort Cosworth - How Much is too much ?

    You'd probably get a lot more money for it in standard trim too. The whole 90's era was probably the pinnacle of mainstream cars, from an array of manufacturers - each wanting to promote and out-do the other. Just look at the array of JDM stuff from that era too - amazing bits of kit, that we...

    Phase 1 Renault 9 Turbo

    Great project! Can't remember the last time I saw a 9 - let alone a Turbo one. What were the book figures on these for BHP and torque? I bet some of the bits like the Turbo badges on the flanks would be a small fortune if original. I assume you're just going to get some vinyl reprints of them...

    £10k 172

    Not forgetting that when we're all chauffeured around in our electric-powered, four-wheeled Google seats - small, chuckable 'fun' cars will undoubtedly have a lot of appeal. Assuming it's not taxed out of existence through burning fossil fuels, or £25k in insurance because there's a...

    Sniper Elite 4

    It's definitely worth a try if you can manage it though. I'm not a fan of player-vs-player much - especially with FPS games - but the co-op mode where you're against increasing waves of more difficult enemies is a nice feature. More so when there's four of you working together, laying mines...

    Sniper Elite 4

    Yeah - it was a great game - the DLC is worth it if you get it cheap in a Season Pass - currently 50% off on Steam at £14.99. SE4 is massively more appealing than the 'replacement' Strange Brigade. Despite me paying for the Season Pass'd edition of that as well - I've yet to complete it...

    £500 gaming pc.

    While its heart-warming to hear that some young 'uns look beyond Console Land for their gaming - £500 will be pushing it. Even in the 2nd hand market, choices would be pretty poor I'd expect and virtually impossible to obtain if he needs the full works like a monitor as well. As @Simon998 says...

    PC High Resolution Screenshots

    I'll definitely get this in a decent sale. The last two TR games have been superb, imo.

    MarkCup's BMW M140i

    Even if you halved that figure - those results are shocking. Pretty much any mainstream car north of £20k can break (or at least approach) double the speed limit these days. To have absolutely no idea of which end the car that you're pressing the Go pedal on is driven by, is bloody scary. To...

    Powering two head units?

    You've got massively more patience and willpower for this. I'd just want a decent unit in there. Does it connect? Does it sound good? Those would be my criteria - and ideally not be that appealing to thieving b******s! :P
