Have you been out towards Drumheller yet, or west to the likes of Field and Golden? Canmore would be one of my lottery-win locations to move to - absolutely stunning. If you head-on through Golden, you get to Revelstoke and the toilet that is Kamloops beyond it. Seriously, stop for nothing there...
Hi m8. I bought the EVGA FTW AIO cooler for it and fitted it to the 1080 FTW.
It's a bit fragile to swap over - putting screws into plastic is always a bit twitchy - but it's straight forward enough to do.
I used to get proper fan noise increase - when anything slightly demanding kicked in...
The next Steam sale is likely to be the summer one - though occasionally they do have publisher specials randomly coming up. It's also worth checking on cdkeys if the Master Collection comes up cheap, or possibly even G2A, though I've heard the occasional bad report about the latter.
If you...
As @JON FOZ says - its the Holy Grail of Evo VI's - iirc, only 6 were ever registered in the UK. They were listed as being 320bhp, but I'm sure I read they were higher - towards the 340bhp mark. A result of utterly ruthless weight-saving - no boot carpet, no stereo, manual windows, etc. Not a...
Not child friendly? It has four doors and a boot? :wink:
Seriously though - a nice cash sum on the sale. Mine was far from pristine when I sold it, but christ - I wish I had stored it somewhere and left it a few more years. The VI's in particular just seem to be going up and up in value.
Great write up - nice and up front opinions about both cars.
The one thing that I can't now un-see regarding the Mk4's is the front appearance. It must be driven by aerodynamics, but it looks like the result of a very bad face-lift. If the car was human, it would look about 5 seconds after...
The FRP is lovely - but again, they didn't actually go to town with additional power on them. I'm sure @gally will say whether or not that extra performance would be needed overall though.
Yep - the Puma is a great shout. The Yahama derived 1.7 lump just loves to be thrashed and I agree with the steering and gearshift feel too.
My wife loved hers - she'd have another one tomorrow. Aside from the dreaded tin-worm (rear arches, especially) and a few starting issues, hers was a good...
Thanks for the Gold reminder. It's coming up for renewal again and I've not switched on my 360 in two years. Always nice to see you getting charged a membership fee when you don't use it!
Totally agree with the freebie games given out, though. When I did use the Xbox, some of the titles given...
Trouble is, most of their business model is based on trinkets, DLCs and other crap that you can buy. Similarly, I saw a coloured knife going for sale on CS:GO on Friday for £351. Worse - someone had previously bought one at a similar price. It's a knife. In a game. Get a grip.
As much as we all...
Leading on from that find yesterday, I had a quick browse of Atari Lynx stuff on ebay. I was surprised at how high the prices were for a quarter-of-a-century old console.
Still got mine - will have to dig it out at some point.
Lol - and they wonder why sales are poor!
Just why would you pay a sizeable chunk upfront for a car that you might actually detest? That is one big wing-and-a-prayer that they are asking their potential customers to go for.
If you want - forward it to me and I'll see if the password box appears?
I'm happy to save it in a different format if you send me the password - assuming it's not too confidential?
This looks like it has potential. Literally fired it up last night for a few minutes and instantly picked up on the SimCity vibe.
Looks very pwetty for such a traditionally bland looking subject matter.
