    Bought a Clio Again!

    Was tempted to put the coffin in the Clio but in a car that small it'd just kill it - so gonna go with a more subtle stereo of a couple of 8" subs in a shelf. And no, I'm not remapping it, or lowering it, or tuning it - Norm knows the score. ;)

    Bought a Clio Again!

    About 33k, and confirmed over the last 300 miles it's done 60mpg (trip computer). Bargain TBH!

    Bought a Clio Again!

    About 33k on the clock, just been serviced, and I checked the trip computer and average for the last 300 miles is 60mpg! Bargain!

    Bought a Clio Again!

    Got ~33k on it, and I confirmed on the test drive that the trip computer thinks it's actually been getting 60mpg for the last 300 miles... So should be good!

    Bought a Clio Again!

    This Clio is staying standard unless a SERIOUSLY cheap RS interior appears on the 'bay, or one of the projects turn one up. There are plans afoot to spend the money I save, I just need to finalise them before I tell you what :p

    Looking to buy...Advise please?

    There are better for the money than a Cat D, but you'll have to spend a shade more. If your budget extends to around 4, then you'll get an alright one IMO.

    Check my bad self! Haha. No air con though... Not sure if I'll regret that tbh, but hey, everything else is good and piss cheap running costs!

    Bought a Clio Again!

    Evening all! Just thought I'd tell you all that I've ditched Diesely-weasely for another girl, bit older and more experienced: £35 tax FTW! Lol! Think I'm gonna miss the Megane TBH, but I'm hoping it'll be worth it! :)

    auto glym help

    The thing with EGP is if you think you've put enough on, you've put too much on. Lots of thin layers as opposed to caking it on.

    Megane GT Quick Clean

    Just a quick clean, with the aid of the assistant! Rinse, wash down with 50:50 Shampoo/Hyper Wash, dry, and a coat of Dodo Wax Light Fantastic all over!

    Baaaaaahahahahahahahaahahaha!!! Just seen that first pic. I hope you killed your mate for doing that!

    Questions - Cv joint & wheel hub thing (pics)

    Just noticed - take the caliper off, take the disc off, and you've got about 8mm to get pliers on! Do it that way, easy picking!

    Questions - Cv joint & wheel hub thing (pics)

    Yeah I did that to one of my Megane's wheel nuts! Fortunately I broke one that went into the spacer, so just had to take the spacer off and the bolt was easy-ish to remove. Will a flat head and a hammer not get it out? As they don't tend to be THAT bad...

    Show me your boot builds (Audio)

    Does this count? LOL! Took me and Norm 4 hours or so I think!

    Car Accident - Please help...

    It's on a 182, so they're unlikely to notice - they only tend to notice when there's bling bling exhausts on a 1.2 that isn't supposed to have them.

    Clio III Dynamique S 138 Light Detail - 56k No!

    Righty, before I start unfortunately this one was on strict time constraints - it's the old dear's fairly unloved Clio III Dynamique S and whilst she can use mine, I wouldn't see it back until 8 tonight and could do with it before then! So started it on Saturday lunchtime, but was on hold...

    Which Blue Ray Laptop for under 800 quid ?

    When your laptop is repaired they often use refurbished parts - they carry the same warranty as new and effectively are new, they're just faulty parts that have come back and been repaired and tested. You won't find a manufacturer out there that DOESN'T do this, as to bin hardware for what is...

    Anybody know if BT are experiencing broadband issues?

    It's a fair shout on their part TBH though mate, as everyone's ADSL is a contended line and I guess they're learning the hard way that their advertised speed is a 'best possible' but realistically it can plummet. I know at least one computer in every department has had the Olympics on all day...

    buying new desktop help

    You're asking alot of a cheap-ass desktop tbh - however Dell E-Value code UKBSDONL-D084101 is a Dell Vostro 410 tower computer, with a Core2Quad processor for £230+shipping and VAT. You'll want a memory upgrade for it but that's about as cheap and as powerful as you can get nowadays.

    buying new desktop help

    http://store.cbccomputers.com/products.asp?partno=KB929ET%23ABU That's the sort of spec you want. Buy a second SATA HDD for it (and an SATA cable) and it'll do you proud - and silent too...

    FAT32 or NTSF

    That'd do it.

    FAT32 or NTSF

    It's not great but I guess you're limited to half of your USB controller's theoretical throughput of 480Mbit. Which equals 30MB/sec. And that assumes you're not using anything else USB as well...

    FAT32 or NTSF

    I've got a 32GB USB Pen Drive that confuses XP, as XP doesn't like formatting volumes over 10GB as FAT32. Lol. It does work though! Just gotta mess with performance settings.
  30. Mike_182

    FAT32 or NTSF

    FAT32 is still fine for external storage :) As to push FAT32 you're using more than an external hard drive as it's capable of dealing with partitions up to 8TB in size.
