    182 Newbie...

    Have you passed your HGV test? You'll need one for the 182 steering wheel. ;) D.

    New From Manchester

    Just check with your insurance about them first. Some insurers don't mind. Some (like mine) charge a small increase in premium for anything up to a 50mm drop. 50mm seems to be a cut-off point for a lot of insurers - i.e., a no-go area. Whereabouts in MCR are you? There's quite a few people in...

    Mid 20's crisis!?

    Definitely. A bit like that what they have in Evo magazine. The car only cost £800 iirc. Ok, so then you have the initial 'hit' of probably replacing the brakes, fluids and tyres before hitting the track - not forgetting road tax and insurance. But you could get both of the latter for 6...

    Tyre size..205's or 195's?

    I raised a similar question a few months back, m8. Some good advice on there too! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=439854 D.

    ouch big losses for sony

    I seriously think that the Gran Turismo fiasco is a major part of that loss. They should have had GT5 out on full blown release within weeks of the PS3 being launched, imo. Even if was a mediocre game at best, they then could have followed that up with a great GT6 and still had a decent tussle...

    Cheers Moz! I noticed that there's a 'Select top 1000 rows' too. :) D.

    Anyone want a free copy of Half life 2 and Half life 2 episode 1?

    I can't believe no one has snapped this up yet? Unless everyone's got it anyway?! :) D.

    VXR Killer... Busted!

    Because they will look at the car in puzzlement and wonder if it's even a Renault. The last one I spoke to even umm'd and arr'd when I was talking to him about a 182. He was just one step from asking "so what's that, then?" :S D.

    n00b SQL Server 2008 question!

    How do you view the next 200 records within SQL Server Management Studio? It seems MSoft has limited it to that in order to stop the firehose mode of earlier editions - which is fair enough. But I'm a SQL novice and a little bit stuck - lol! :o D.

    +1 Superb colour. About time Shaun got his lunar back up to these Northern parts to show it off! :) D.

    Borderlands

    I'd get this for PC - but I might wait. Simply have got too much with Fallout 3 to complete and a few others. Plus, L4D2 will be here in a few weeks as well. :) D.

    TV for Xmas - £2kish budget

    David - I listened to the chaps on here (thanks again guys :)) following this post.... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=416557 And he was that impressed with the first 60" Pioneer Kuro, that he went and bought another a few months later! Superb TV. Really does look the tits...

    Wii Mk2

    Probably. It's not like there's ever been a need to see the stubble on Mario's face or the detail in his kart engine. ;) Wii games need to look fluffy. They doesn't necessarily need to look good. D.

    ***Tyre Poll***

    Maybe a revamp of the poll is needed? After all, the original thread was posted 4 years ago. ;) I've voted on the poll in the past, but I'm now running on Dunlop SP Sport Maxx's. D.

    Italy mini meet...

    Funny that after spending a week in Tuscany earlier in the year and 2 hours each way in a minibus - I didn't see one RS Clio on the roads. They must be quite rare over there! Loving that Scooby. Is the small sticker on the boot-lid of the Scooby and on the front corner of the bonnet on the...

    UPDATE: Melting Steering Wheel Thread

    Which clearly it is. :( Why do we have 110k+ miler Mondeos and Golfs at work without knackered steering wheels? Even the Cupra R that was here on nearly 130k miles simply didn't have anything resembling the kind of wear that our RS wheels have. Reno could probably hide under the 'wear &...

    [PC/XBOX360] Left 4 Dead 2

    Re: [PC] Left 4 Dead 2 :eek: Steam's offering a bundle where you can both games for circa £40, iirc. As you've not logged onto Steam for 160 days, I thought it best to tell you. ;) I might hang on actually - and await the full thing. I've just got Fallout 3 reinstalled and have two DLCs...

    Cheers m8 - thanks for the heads-up on the point above. I'll probably give a set of these a try then - certainly worth a try at least, imo. :) D.

    UPDATE: Melting Steering Wheel Thread

    Do you reckon it would help Scott, if we all upload a pic with the driver's door open showing just how bad our steering wheels were? If we took a picture just of the wheel, it doesn't prove much. But different coloured cars/dashboards/accessories on display etc, proves all the hundreds of cars...

    getting bored of forza 3

    Loan me the NSX for a bit and I'll bob down and sort it out for you. ;) I do actually have a need for something like that. I take it that they have improved over the years as the original ones from around a decade ago were absolute shat. Your's is ok then, Gareth? D.

    200 = the new bug eye scoob

    I still think that the 1*2 era looks the best of the bunch. Yep, I have a 182, but neither the 197 or the 200 is pulling at me to ditch what I've already got. That in a nutshell is where the newer cars don't work for me. Ideally for Reno, I should be chopping my car in for one of these...
