Just me being over-cautious, m8! I've changed the oil every 6k on my 182 and it's on 17,500 now - so 18k is rapidly approaching. Along with the oil and oil filter, I was going to swap out the panel filter too. I certainly haven't 'felt' the car struggling, but for the price of them, I'd rather...

Anyone know of the best place to get one from? Mine's been in my 182 for about 15 months, so rather than clean it (like I posted in my own dumbass thread :p ) - it will be easier just to buy a new one. Cheers.. D.

LMFAO!!!! What friggin state has this country let itself get into, eh? No one has any standards, morals or sense of decency anymore. The little b******s should made to feel 110% worthless, maybe strip them naked while the victims of their petty crimes pelt them with eggs and then be made to...

Debz - not trying to make light of knobheads who did that to your car(s) but I remember visiting the BMW Import centre over near Immingham (?) years ago. The manager there said just how many Beemers leave the ship from Germany with bangs, dents, scrapes, etc that all get sorted out before being...

Yep, everyone's that s**t scared of the "where there's a blame there's a claim" mentality, that no one will own up and say 'sorry m8, I've just dented your car.' Hope you get it sorted soon though! D.

That's took balls to put those blue side-badges on. It works though - stands out against the rest of the black. :approve: D.

... pretty similar to the old 21, 25 and 30 year-old age 'barriers'. Made feck all difference to me in terms of insurance going cheaper. The only thing that seems to have an effect would be if I moved to a barn on the Outer Hebrides and obviously, had a sex change. ;) D.

I agree with some of your points Bill, but isn't this what's causing so many problems for the industry at the moment? The fact that SO much is based on assumption? The postcode thing I still 110% disagree with you on. Like I've said on several previous posts, when we lived in Heywood (which came...

The issue here is much bigger than your case alone. My personal burning, insane, borderline psychotic hatred of car insurance is compounded by the fact that they are (usually) so far removed from the actual car owner themselves, that they have little concept of real-world scenarios. Take the...

We're honoured by the presence of the finest 182 that money can buy. :cool: First time I've spotted it at the top of our road, and no CS stickers on that I could see. '55 plate.... D.

No probs - I will still keep an eye out for you though! D.

Billy, has your 182 got the stripes on it? I've seen one a couple of times between Asda and KFC near the hospital in Blackburn. D.

Maybe they've sorted it out since HL2 was first released, but I don't know because it pissed me off that much. That was back in the days when I was stuck on 512k BB and every fecking time I reloaded my saved game (in single player - like WTF has that got to do with verifying with Steam?) I had...

I hope you battered him repeatedly until he admitted his guilt at the most ludicrous decision of his miserable life? ;) D.

timsclio - fantastic looking car m8 - I bet you're well chuffed! :approve: Everything just looks right and in proportion on those pictures. Nice and subtle and it makes the person on the outside looking at the car think, 'just how much has he had done?' I like the colour of the calipers...

LOL - I hope you're not local? Jain will kick your ass if she reads this! ;) D.

Jeezuz Scott, you poor b*****d....:dapprove: Hope you get the whole issue resolved, ASAP. D.

Still rather have the F1 Team limited edition though. That looks truly amazing....:approve: D.

One guy did the same here, except he hadn't been drinking prior to the smash. Legged it when he totalled his car and by the time the police caught him, he'd already had a couple of drinks. Needless to say he'll still be paying £1,500 TPFT on a B-reg Micra.... D.

Nope - no management, just custom tournaments, player setups, etc. D.

I've got it on the PC. I hated the original, despite trying it several times. I've got 0.001% football knowledge, but I still preferred the footy management games than the likes of Sensible Soccer. However, this is an eye-opener. Don't expect realism (in any shape or form) but as a...

Let's just hope the little b*****d who drove into you was insured in the first place, eh? D.

:eek:

Did you notice that the driver's hands and arms were in there too? No more phantom drivers! ;) D.

Good to hear that the chaps who went to E3 headed to the GTR2 stand first. :cool: Looked good on the bits they showed on telly last night, though apparently a full review will be on next month's 3DMotors. They did say that the graphics on GTL looked better than those they saw on GTR2, which...

Is that not telford_mike? D.

Were they stalking you? Spit-roasted Pete on the menu, was it? ;) D.

I'd really like to get the raised section of the 2.0 badges paint in black gold with the rest left in the silver plastic. I know I'm nowhere near good enough to do it myself, though! D.

^^^^ - nope, not long now m8. Some of the screenshots looked like there were no drivers hands like in the original GTR. WTF? That was one of the best additions to GTL! Still, it should be awesome - I'll be buying it for sure... D.

Never a truer word said! I initially lost the lead from my Sidewinder 2 FF wheel that went down to the pedals, so tried using the keyboard instead. 110% impossible - the all-or-nothing nature of keyboard inputs meant that understeer/oversteer was going on nearly all the time. Once I'd hijacked...
