    Winter Tyres

    my servicing package replaces only like for like tyres, i have no say what goes on them, just 195/50/16 michelin energy something or other. if i want to put a set of winter tyres on i have to purchase them, have them fitted then once winter is over have them changed back over to my standard...

    Winter Tyres

    i never said i saved it, im not £500 worse off by buying a set of tyres that i dont need, my car came supplied with a set of tyres which im still using, i dont see the point in removing them to fit a set of winter tyres.

    Winter Tyres

    because for me, in winter a car is about getting to and from work and thats all its for. i leave a bit earlier when it snows, take my time and get there just as safely as i would in the summer! pulling G's off the traffic lights with my winter tyres doesnt sound like fun, so i keep the £500+ in...

    Winter Tyres

    of couse they give better grip, they are designed to. Toyo R888's are designed to give brilliant grip in the summer, doesnt mean your cars unsafe if your running something cheaper and lower spec. im with danny, the last 2 winters and especially last winter have been terrible up here with...

    Recommend me a cheap external hard drive

    best bet is going 2nd hand due to the above, also price up a 2nd hand hard drive in what ever size you need and a cheap enclosure. you considered an upgrade to 7 rather than a down(upgrade!) to XP from vista? you would be surprized how well 7 runs on older hardware. i tried it on my old IBM T40...
