I know it's an obvious statement to say that the faster your BB connection, the better the 'experience' will be. But how much does general broadband speed make to your game, in comparison to what the server deems to correct at any one particular time. E.g:- Me at home on a 1MB connection at...

I don't think I've ever used such a disjointed, unhelpful, illogical and just plain stupid website as Cisco's. Every single option on the screens are a million miles away from what you need or want. We've got a new 1841-SDSL router with SmartNET cover and I'm just after downloading the latest...

Ok - soap-box time. Last night was the first time I'd had a go at BF2 in literally months. I applied the latest patch and got ready for some tank ownage. Except I couldn't. The main reason being that out of the quickest ten servers in ping times, the top eight were all infantry only. There...

..... heading Ashton way. Only caught a glimpse at first with the xenons on, so I couldn't tell if it was arctic or racing blue... :o Anyone? D.

Parked up. I actually saw it leave a bit later on as well. Anyone of here? D.

What's the deal with these then? I presume its something you can switch on and off? Nothing changes on the dash lights when I press the button. Maybe mine's broken? ;) D.

On the way back from Oulton Park today - back to the M56 - I spotted four silver 172s at different times. Is it a Cheshire thing to have such a 172? ;) Spotted a couple of blue Ph.2 172s at Oulton itself and a pornographic Meggy F1 (the fit as fook one - blue/dark alloys) D.

Bit of a random thread, but how and where do people store their PCs and other bits like pads, polishes, etc? I'm keeping mine in its packaging for now, but I'd like something to keep all the bits in together. I thought of an old rucksack or something similar to protect the PC? Any other...

Quite easily the largest grouping of V6 Clios I've seen in one spot.... .... and if you don't want to count - there's a dozen of the buggers! Both me and Steve felt a little bit outnumbered in our 182 and 172, but as it was a v6Clio.net meet, what else could we expect? ;) The weather was...

Whoa! :D How easy is to wash the car now?! Much, much smoother and dare I say it, quicker and easier than before. I only used the usual tepid water mix with AG Bodywork Shampoo in it, but the results were very impressive indeed. The only question I have now (hello Rich?!) is with keeping...

Past the Ramsbottom turn off - saw it on the other side of the motorway. Not seen many in red? D.

No stickers or anything on it, so I doubt the owner will be on here. Worth a shot though. ;) Approx 12.30, when I was getting me a butty. D.

Well, today was the day. The past weekend, I clayed the car (leaving the usual god-damn awful paintwork) but didn't worry too much as the polisher was up for it's first outing today. :) I was going to take my time and not rush it. Clearly the last point rang true - even though I'd done the...

LOL - wtf have they done with the AI on C&C3? The campaigns are ok, but the skirmish AI appears to have had training at the Well 'ard Military Academy for the past few years. Literally any RTS from EA in recent times I've been able to whack up the AI on skirmish to Brutal levels and have a...

.....that quad CPU with dual core support would be more powerful than dual CPU with quad core support? Ponder, ponder... D.

Amazing what you could spend, going ticky, ticky, ticky online.... I'll take three, please. ;) D. 1 DA-1280A-BD AS GS1280 M64 Dual AC UNIX $600,000.00 $600,000.00 32 3X-KN72D-AB GS1280 7-1300 AD-IN UX $66,000.00 $2,112,000.00 128 3X-MS7AC-DA GS-ES 4GB RIMMs kit...

My car is currently in the Reno garage for the usual weeping washer problem. In exchange, I have a 1.2 Mk3 Clio for the day. Now, I'm not going to compare the performance of the 1.2 against the 182 as that would be totally unfair, but rarely have I felt such little faith in the car that I'm...

Approx 9.30pm tonight. We were just leaving in our mini convoy when you came in. Car looked very good - and low! :cool: D.

The 182 isn't going anywhere........ for now, at least! I've been thinking of what best to do these past couple of months, and I can safely say that I'm happy sticking with the 182. The 197 was never even a starter for me and while the Corsa VXR had some potential, it was a hefty hike in...

What's the deal with taping up the cill rubbers, etc? Does the PC damage these in anyway? Or is it that the pad on the PC would pickup way too much crap off the rubbers? Cheers, D.

Is this stuff too harsh for normal use? I'd only be using the standard SFX-2 polish anyway, but if there were sections that didn't appear to be touched by the SFX-2, I maybe tempted for the SFX-1. D.

In response to my earlier thread... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=216012&highlight=mofo I tied-in a look at the front pads with an oil and filter change yesterday. And the results were horrendous. I'm actually shocked and disgusted at myself that I've allowed them to get...

.....went past the Beehive Roundabout approx 5pm last night - heading down past the hospital. Looked very shiny indeed! D.

I have a couple of small stone chips on my car - two on the bonnet and one on the wing. With a PC on the way, am I best staying well clear with the PC? Or just being extra careful? Cheers, D.

Passed the 182 heading south. Had two girlies in it who seemed deep in conversation?! ;) The Trophy came past on the other side of the motorway - heading north. Only caught a glimpse of the plate - private one beginning with 'T'. Both would have been around 5.30pm tonight. Anyone? D.

Some great racing today at Oulton Park - in particular the GT racing being a gamble with the rain being on/off all through the 2nd race. The VW racing was superb too - an entertaining mix of VAG powered cars including turbos, turbo/supercharged combos. V6's and even TDi power. Some of the sounds...

So far - I've still got to try GTR2 whilst under the influence, but on things like Gran Turismo, I have managed better laptimes after a good couple of bevvies. What this proves/disproves, I've no idea. Do I drive like 92-year-old Norris in his 1.0litre Micra whilst sober? Crikey. There's a...

Right chaps.... My 182 has developed a very irritating squeak whilst on the move, that I originally thought was down to binding brakes. Whenever I dabbed the brakes, the noise would stop, but then pickup again within a few seconds. However, tapping the brakes doesn't seem to make much...

Does anyone here use it? Currently disabled on my PC at home, but just wondered if anyone has recommendations for it? Cheers, D.

Met Ste on the way back from Leeds. His Ph.1 172 has had major heart surgery today (new cambelt) - so we decided to go for a quick blat over the hills, towards home. A couple of blatant (and cheesey! :cool:) shots... D.
