    Damaged ipad. Options please.

    £200 !?! Where from...?? For the sake of £50, is it really worth it...? You can probably get £50 for your busted one on eBay....

    Would you be bothered about the miles on this 197?

    I'd call them and firstly clarify the price just incase. Then ask for the HPi cert... then do it yourself. If that's all clear go look at it .. I can't see it on their own website though....

    Internet in a flat/apartment - slow as s**t.

    Aunt and Uncle moved into their apartment about 5 years ago. They've got broadband from BT but it's still hovering about the 1MB mark. He nearly swung for me when I told him my 100MB is going up to 120 soon lol :o I don't personally know how they haven't gone utterly batsh*t at BT yet, but...

    Buy on condition, not miles. It's not like it's done 250k... HPi and check it over. Shed ? Walk away. Clean ? Buy it.

    My car sounds like a scooby!

    Won't be an injector as it's backfiring .. meaning there's unburnt fuel there.

    Misfire. Be it a lead or an actual plug is up to you to figure out. My money is on cyl no.3 though...

    About to finally buy a camera, come, stop me making a mistake!

    Without looking too hard .. for example http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Canon-EOS-40D-10-1-MP-Digital-SLR-Camera-Black-Body-Only-/271168367835 Seems OK to me.... Little more money, but a newer body ...

    About to finally buy a camera, come, stop me making a mistake!

    I said look at second hand bodies. There's always old ones cropping up (no pun intended) on the for sale board at work ( >2k nerdy blokes on one site ) .. I got Ant a 400D body for £110 the other day and there was a 40D for about £125 not long ago. 450D is always a good start IMO, but it's...

    I'm just saying for a little more pocket money, you can up your game seriously ;) That lense looks fine. Nothing wrong with Sigma .. my favourite lense is my 10-20mm Sigma UWA !! Just buy a body, if it comes with a kit lense, use that for a while and see how you get on. If you need more...

    About to finally buy a camera, come, stop me making a mistake!

    Yes you'll get 100's of 1,000's of shots out of a sensor. If it looks knackered, avoid. Just like buying cars - buy on condition not milage ;) As for 70-300's .. depends what it is .. but that should be much better than a 17-300 haha ! Again, like cars (or anything), buying cheap isn't...

    About to finally buy a camera, come, stop me making a mistake!

    Firstly, go into Currys etc. and handle the cameras. I found 2 in my budget, got on with the Canon quite well, all seemed quite logical and simple - couldn't begin to understand the Nikon as it seemed very confusing to a noob compared to the other one. Find a few cameras in your budget and...

    How is the Clio 200 on the motorway?

    If I spent 15k+ on a new car, I'd want as many miles per £ as possible. Cars are designed for driving. Why would you be bothered about putting miles on a car which sole purpose (essentially) is to be driven ?!

    new car.. dying :(

    As long as it's a 12V battery, it'll work. You could have one from a Transit van if it's 12V .. it's whether it fits that is the issue... a loose battery is dangerous for so many reasons. If it's secure, I'd not worry about it. If it was a battery for a 0.5l Matiz it might not have enough...

    What to use to attach new front number plate

    Not being funny but Velcro attaches them very very well... stuck on with anything less than 3M super double sided glue tape (which you'll still get off eventually...) they're coming off if someone wants them. Most are stuck on with screws FFS. If they were smart however, they'd just note...
