It is a FF. If it was a silver Cup amonst other things it would have cloth seats rather than leather, no xenons, no headlight washers, a bigger spoiler. My 53 172 has cruise, 6cd under passenger seat and switchable ESP/traction. Cruise was only on late 172 and the 6cd was optional on...

You will still be able to answer calls as it would still come up with the caller and screen. It'd probably crash tomtom though. I could try it out and see. To be fair, I rarely use it as tomtom whereas the Parrot is on always when I drive. If I think on, I'll try it out this way tomorrow...

Nice car for what it is really. Subtle and smart. But definitely the strip looks tacky. Spoils everything.

Nah, I didn't. If you have tomtom on then it will interupt the radio and by the time it's done so you've missed the start of what is says. You can't easily turn off Parrot so as you have bluetooth on for tomtom, you have 2 connections, one to each. if you depair with parrot, it keeps...

bitlord is excellent but i find when it's running my internet browsing slows down a lot.

You can buy them off ebay pretty cheap.

Parrot systems are mint. have a read of one of my old threads... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=210876

Nice one. Do the DVLA do cherished plates anymore? Can't see them on their site anymore just transfers.

Once mine's picked a satellite I can usually put it in the small shelf near my right knee. More often it sits fine just below the small non uv window at the bottom of the windscreen. Recently, I've bought an external aerial for it so that I can plumb that through from the wiper scuttle...

I got a BT-77 Nemerix one off ebay. Pretty good. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-BT-77-Bluetooth-GPS-Receiver-16-Channels-Nemerix_W0QQitemZ190127500950QQihZ009QQcategoryZ4668QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Use it with my N80 fine.

They are rubbish like. Any weight you put on them and they move from your selected position to the fully closed position. Pointless. My old RT ones would sort of rotate forward and actually provide support (they just didn't go high enough for my lanky frame).

I personally think Satnav on a phone is the best option. It's always with you so never left on your dashboard. I can give you tomtom6 for a S60 Nokias like N80/N95. Works brilliantly. N80 would require an external GPS (~£20).

^^ Exactly as mine. I'm not worried as I'm always confident it'll start second time such is the pattern its taken. It's more embarrassing than anything else.

Mine often does not start first thing on a morning. It starts second time I try, fine. Oddly it did it all last summer but not the winter. It's just recently started doing it again. :S

Congrats Rich, well worth the effort. Dare say I'll spot you on the road some time. Enjoy getting stared at!

Just noticed something else about the cup racer.. yours losing the rear wiper too?

Class! This getting a roll cage too?

After selling an AMD based board like the above, I've just bought the intel version along with a Core2duo e6600 chip. ebuyer: http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/124950

^^ Excellent mobo. I was going to suggest this. I'ev just sold one for £45 on ebay. Allows you to use AGP until you can afford a PCI-E card and you won't then have to replace mobo &/or chip. You can get AMD or Intel based versions ie socket 939/AM2 or 775.

White hot hatches rock! Nice one Rich. (You still working in Shields?)

Basically it's air filter, oil and filter, pollen filter. Sparks are not needed until 72k and I don't think they even do fuel filter. They basically do the odd check here and there. Make sure they stamp your corrosion service thing in the book as most dealers never bother. Also, if you get...

Why do braided hoses mean better brakes? Is it something along the lines of they won't expand like normal hoses and therefore allow more force to travel through pipe? Just guessing. I need to change my fluid soon and may invest in new hoses. And I agree. Greenstuff suck. I took mine...

And I marked my aux belt with a felt tip while the engine was running just to check it was changed.

I got my 36k service done at Benfield Renault in Gateshead. £275. That includes the aux belt but it's me supplying my own oil which seperately cost me £30 (Halfords special offer on fully synth). Renault wanted £70 for oil so it would have been about £350 with their oil and belt.

lol I know why it wont work!! A while back I took all my keys off to clean them but Ive put the alt and windows keys the wrong round! so i was pressing windows and 2 5 5 . LOL!!

Dammit, it works on my lasses pc but not mine. The irony is it's stuff I want to hide from her but on my pc!

Not working. I either end up with it still being called New Folder or (if num lock is turned on) 255. Dammit! I've Gb's of filth to hide!

Would be useful but dunno what I'm doing wrong. When I press Alt then 2, 5, 5 I get cursor going to the end of the name New Folder and it stays there. When I press return it's still called new folder. When I do click rename, name new folder goes blue but soon as I press Alt 2, 5, 5 the...

By the way... I didn't know XP ran on a MAC? Vista certainly needs moderately high spec pc so I'd check compatibility.
