Glad to hear it's fitted, fingers crossed for the permanent fix and hopefully getting details of it.

Maybe I'm being a bit paranoid, just basing it on sometimes it can be a bugger to get a car to make the turn in one go if you get the line slightly wrong. First pic is the view down the drive towards the road, second two are the road and the turn onto the drive. There's also a white stone...

Some of them do seem to go just fine with a lot of power and the right map, been a while since I was a Volvo beard so I'm probably a bit out of touch ;)

Nice choice. Might be slightly biased. :D

To be fair to Ford, the 2.5 lump in the RS and ST which quite often needs the block mod is a Volvo engine and very little to do with them in terms of the core design. The mistake seems to have been to up the power when they decided to make it the new "T5" engine because they couldn't make the...

I'd love to get myself a trailer setup, but I've got a tight 90 degree corner to get onto my drive and I don't think I'd be able to make it - basically a single track road with a 90 degree turn into a driveway just wide enough to get a transit down with a couple of inches clearance either side...

T1-S was a far worse tyre than the T1-R to be fair to the R, the R was a good tyre for the price although not great in the wet, or the cold. I used them with no real complaints, but like I say it was a very, very long time ago. :wink: The Eagle F1 peed all over them by comparison, and that’s...

They were decent enough, if never class leading except in terms of bang for buck, but that was about fifteen years ago. Ancient design, long surpassed. I’m genuinely mystified that they still have an almost cult following. I mean, they’re not lethal or anything but they’re still treated like...

Got a Belkin Bluetooth keyboard/case combo on mine, can’t fault it. It’s tough, battery lasts ages and not too heavy.

That's not bad, and also good that they didn't mess about, I guess the technical bulletins are out now. Either that or they watch your YT vids, power of celebrity and all that :D

Seriously, stop it, once I've sorted my daily I want a 7-a-like for a toy and after the M3 it makes me look like some creepy perv who's copying your choices :D

@mossyv6 E46 M3? Ideal family car :D

It's an unusual kink, but whatever floats your boat :D

Goddamnit, I can't believe you're selling this, after meeting you I always had it in my head that if you sold one of yours I'd be all over it..... Lovely example mate.

You’ve got me wanting another one now, stop it.

As you say, at least Ford have acknowledged the issue. Aren't they on the verge of a full blown recall? I don't see they've got much choice, it's not something any car can afford to have hanging over it no matter how widespread it is in reality. Fingers crossed it's something silly like a leaky...

I’ve got an SE, if you don’t do much web browsing, emailing and tons of stuff with different apps and games it’s nigh-on perfect. Still works well with Waze in the car. I was looking at the range myself the other day and I think I’d go for a 7 if I was wanting one with a bigger screen on a...

Arrrrrgh..... I finally get an hour of free time, sort out a couple of jobs, decide to get some gaming in. 1.5Gb patch that I can't skip. Estimated download time on my current cruddy connection - 30 minutes. Sometimes modern gaming really hacks me off. I'm gonna play some Starship Command on...

Very true, my missus would be a case in point, she likes a "sporty" looking car that feels "nippy" but certainly doesn't need a hot hatch of any sort. Her current 207 GTi has way more performance than she'll ever need. She never takes it beyond three or four thousand RPM at part throttle, on the...

I just wish I got time to play the bloody thing.......

Quickest purchase to bork ever?

I'm there too, I think the trick may be to At least that was as far as I got with it last night. Generally the tricky bits in all the Wolf games have a path through them, you just need to work out the strategy, which is a pain because the rest of the game lets you play however you want. I...

I'd say not absolutely necessary, but the emotional impact of a lot of the events will be much greater if you played and enjoyed the first game. Bit like watching Empire Strikes Back without having first seen Star Wars ;) If you just want a decent shooter and sod the storyline then nah you...

In terms of seating permission, with the curved screens I've found you're so much closer to them that where you sit doesn't really matter that much. They are really nice but personally I wouldn't pay much extra for one. Got a 34" ultrawide curved one at work and it's great for productivity but I...

@Darren S, agreed. I would have thought at least having most of the game content on a couple/three dual-layer DVDs would make sense, not the bare minimum. I can't really complain, Amazon upgraded the order to the "Welcome To Amerika" pack for no extra charge which also gave me some free DLC...

Couple of hours in now, it's awesome, absolutely brilliant so far. If you liked the previous games this is a no-brainer, dark, compelling, solid story, really good combat. Only reason I've stopped playing now is I'll already be in the doghouse for spending the last couple of hours gaming. :smiley:

Anyone played it yet? Reviews look good and I loved the earlier games. I've got it. My internet connection is a bit crap so I pre-ordered from Amazon on disc to avoid having too much of a download wait, was expecting the usual day 1 patch malarky. Wasn't expecting it to grab about 4Gb of 46...

Does look a little bit lean, especially lower down the rev range. Wants to be about 13 at full throttle on these IIRC, but it's not like you're heading up to properly dangerous territory.

Garmin VIRB here too, plus an OBDLink LX for data from the car. It links to my fitness band too for heart rate data which can be quite amusing :)
