'been a while, about time for an update having tweaked my depreciation calculation; nothing to report other than it having had its second service.

So it does...I missed that too! Worth a punt then I'd say.

That looks good enough although there's no mention of it being a two-channel stereo microphone; looks like mono only. That's your choice...while using my lav mic in its mono setting there is a marked improvement over what the GoPro in-built mic picks up there's no substitute for the much fuller...

You do indeed! Get another case? I've never done the underwater thing with mine so was happy taking a Dremel to it.

If you get a lav mic it'll be on a lengthy wire with a clip for attachment anyway. When using it with my HD2 hand held I just clip the mic to the jack plug sticking out from the side of the camera.

Nope HD 2 for me so a standard 3.5 mm jack which gives a nice two-channel stereo format instead of the standard in-built mic's useless mono. I've never really looked into or at a 3 so couldn't even suggest what's best!

I can't see the problem with it at all to be honest. There's plenty of premium cars, in that colour, that would have the majority of CS knocking one out at the sight of it. Hypocrisy? Jealousy?

Just get a generic cheap omni-directional lav mic from eBay. I paid circa £10 and it's more than adequate.

I love the 'it's different' which automatically makes it OK line, when in reality it looks awful. brilliant. On the plus side all that crap can be easily removed :)

Yes, both start automatically on ignition.

This is it, it wasn't hard and certainly not harsh braking. Yes I braked late and firmly. Why? The forward video shows this , the white sign was hidden from view, the junction itself was hidden from view, and the sign itself was almost on top of the junction leaving little time to react once...

You do! Now they're so cheap and easily available the only reason not to have one is if you regularly drive like a cnut.

So here is my approach to the junction from my front camera...damn I was tearing up dem lanes!

No, as explained (quite clearly I thought) I was looking for a junction, the whereabouts of which was, to me, unknown. The junction itself was on the brow of a hill and wasn't visible from afar, I spotted the sign but couldn't see clearly if this junction was the one I needed or indeed where the...

I fail to see the relevance of my speed? Regardless, I can say with 100% certainty that I was not going even anywhere near and certainly not over the posted speed limit. I was driving along an unfamiliar road trying to pick out a junction I didn't know on damp roads with wet leaves strewn...

This is what appeals. The ST is almost too good. Only almost though, it is a hooligan on demand, just a nice refined one. I kind of miss the character of the lean forward long reach into third gear and the offset steering wheel though LOL

LOL I accept some blame here as I did slow quickly...I stayed at a mate's last night and a diversion giving an unusual route in meant I was looking for a turning but had no idea where it would be. The junction signage was partially hidden behind foliage with the junction, on a brow of a hill...

It matches the one I have facing forwards...and, err, the footage above shows why I have them.

My heart was in my mouth as I saw this coming in my rear view mirror this morning!

Who covers West Sussex?

Excellent news Tim!

They really are. I've found myself looking at any 1*2 recently...I'm drawn towards finding an original Trophy as it's the only one I've still yet to experience.

You've never been caught in the wrong gear and been left behind by a diesel rep-mobile then? Happened to me many times in both my 172 Cup and 200.

On track they're similar. On road the ST would romp away at every opportunity unless the 172 drove everywhere in 2nd gear at 5,000 rpm just in case.

That's the problem. They're really good, zero fade around Goodwood, barely any dust, and I'm just about to hit 27k miles on the set it left the factory with. That's what makes me want to stay standard.

Agreed. Far too over assisted. New pads for me soon so I may stray from standard and go for something with a little less cold bite.

My Fiesta has a 7.5% increase in bhp. That 172 Cup had circa 22% increase in bhp. You're forgetting or ignoring that the ST comes with 200 bhp as standard. It's all irrelevant anyway, the only thing that really matters is not power mods, unrepeatable 0-60 sprint times or who was stronger on the...

Nope. Big AMG V8, yes, makes sense. Little low revving charged two litre four-banger. No. It won't be long before 5inch tailpipes are the norm on Aygos if this carries on. Just no.

I'm waiting for mine from Google but if anyone has one spare; Mark cup 70 at gmail dot com Thankyou please.
