I did lol @ how Gally changed his opinion when his fellow cleaner appeared. I love them. Not in that colour. Not sure what combo I'd have. However, I have a very long time to decide on that.

1) Old cars break 2) Old cars break 3) Should have done a bit of research Just get it fixed if it's an otherwise good car. Whatever else you buy could be much much worse.

Nice car. Awful pictures.

Re: ah shitt. New engine time.

Please don't do anything like that :(

LOL! Should have ironed it first.

Nope. Too old now. Look good from some angles, from others they make the Titanic look mint. Even at £500, with your track record of boredom, I wouldn't bother. Add insurance, tax and maintenance, you're better off just using the 200.

Re: Jon's MK1 172 project thread Do you have actual knowledge, Jon? Or just like taking things apart? Lol. That steering wheel is proper fucked!

The 50mm f1.8 is one of the best lenses you can buy for the price really. I'd go with that. Nothing wrong with Sigma glass but you really don't need f1.4

New lens @ f1.8 will be fine. f1.4 is a billy silly 95% of the time. That shallow a depth of field is rarely useful.

Fair play to K-Tec TBH. Years and years and years ago, before some of you were even born, there was another tuning company that produced fairytale numbers. They refused to back it up. People offered to pay their petrol, time, expenses and for the rolling road to get it tested elsewhere. But...

Yep. It fits. About £40 from Renault. If you become a paid member you can check the for sale sections.

Glad you're okay and not badly injured. But regardless of the driver being 'a bit of a w**ker' you should have left enough room to stop. How bad was the car you hit? If it's not bad, pay for their damage and fix yours. You'll only need light/bonnet/wing. Will be far cheaper than going through...

If I had a big commute, I'd probably do the same. But I'd go from 2 tanks a month in the 172, to 1 tank in some slow, boggo spec, can't over take or have any fun in it, Polo. Not worth the fun/speed loss.

I still have VLC :D

Yup. Once you had faster, going back is horrible. Same applies to anything. I thought my 1.2 Clio first car was fine. Then I had to drive it again having driven faster cars and hated it. I remember the days of 4 kbs download speeds. Taking 20mins to get a song. Then realising it was something...

If you lower it 49mm you're in one bracket, if you lower it 51mm you're in another. It's so they can charge the sump smashers even more.

You need a Mac mini. But nearly.

That's illegal.

Try 28! :D

You need to speak to your insurance company. Some say it's just an admin fee, some want thousands, some refuse. But you're young so it's going to cost you a lot if they do allow it. Think £500 more.

Buy new if that's what you're happy with. To start with, your pictures are going to look crap. You need to learn the camera, the settings, what changing the ISO/shutter/aperture does, how to set up a shot, when/how to use the flash and loads of other things. It doesn't matter if you have the...

You got a before/after graph you can post up, Sean?

From into the fuel light, I've only managed £60. Did you pour some down the side too?

We used to get a trade magazine called MCV delivered to work and all the indie shops would do it all the time and openly admit it in there. The trade price they were given due to their low volumes was more expensive than Tesco etc would retail it at. So they'd order none, go to Tesco on launch...

Re: Jon's MK1 172 project thread I like the lights. Good project. Now don't buy anything else before I get a chance. Ta.

Needs red wheels.

Looking good, Robert.

They look best in silver. Okay in anthracite. A bit s**t in white. Absolutely f**king awful in black. You can disagree with that but you're wrong.

I'm going to say it's Inferno and bad pictures.
