Epic cars. P1 etc seem quicker on paper, but hasn't the 918 set faster lap times in a few tests?

Was really tempted to get a 6, but the battery life doesn't seem to be much improved over the 5. Had a play with a 6 plus, too big for me. If they'd sorted the battery I'd probably go back to an iPhone, despite now preferring android to ios.

I'm the same. Broke my wrist in several places so I have to wear it on the wrong side.

It's smaller on the watch.

They buy glasses. Smart phones etc have been a massive bonus for opticians. No one over 40 used mms etc 10yrs ago. Now it's the norm to check emails etc on phones. And it's much smaller print. So people that didn't used to have probs until mid to late 40's have trouble earlier.

Wait until presbyopia sets in chap.

On the plus side, all the text etc will be borderline microscopic. Should make selling spectacles easier for us:)

Interesting comments on a thread from 2001 when the ipod was released! http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=500

I'm definitely a watch person. The majority of which are cheap. Price doesn't factor imo. The apple watch just looks crap to me. Like a shitty nixon.

A car kind of gets in the way of eating dinner, being at work, watching TV etc. A watch doesn't. Pointless comparison is pointless.

I've been using a pebble watch, and the notifications etc are genuinely useful. But I like watches, and all of the smart watches (including apples) do nothing for me. They look s**t. I'd rather wear a proper watch and look at my phone when needed.

I got rid of my iPhone5 because of the dreadful battery life. Bought a nexus 5 and planned to sell it once the iPhone 6 was released. Won't be going back to Apple. In several ways android works better for me. As an operating system, it's superior.

Values seem all over the place. There's an st2 with under 4k miles up at £13.8.

There's a few on at for 13.5ish on low miles

One of those cars I wish I had space for.

Yozza/BTM are same person these days. Fred is no longer a trader, but a quick Google should get you BTM contact details. I don't like the ktec because it's louder, heavier, and poorly made (poor fit). Hence them going cheap!

There was a time I'd have used hid kits. But having seen several reports of them sparking up, not worth the risk imo. Be interested to know what the insurance situation would be if a set caught fire.

As above. I've fitted these to the wife's meg, and in comparison to true hids there's no contest. They are no brighter than standard bulbs, but the white light gives the illusion, it's a much nicer look. In my experience the bulbs that are genuinely brighter have a much shorter operating life.

Must be busy! Took a week for this

Yozza sport stealth (very light an quiet) via BTM. Or BTB (quiet but heavy).

Took bloody ages to figure out. Changed ball joints, arb bushes etc

And the bilsteins are immense. Up there with kW v2's for me.

I had a knock in my 172, only on tight left hand corners. Turned out to be the engine mount under the battery, think it was shifting so much laterally that it was causing the driveshaft to knock.

Spa in 3 weeks! Got an email today to say mclaren Road cars are joining us! Demonstrating the 650s.

As above. I'd hook a code reader/rs tuner up. Having a similar issue with out dci175. Code reader suggests it's a faulty throttle or brake position sensor.

Russ at Midlands car care.

Wife always wins. You know this.

Asian from Birmingham. He's probably downstairs with a coat hanger now.

Found one up at a good spec/price. Decent condition, and given that 5 doors seem less common decided to go for it. Really like it!

Picked up wife's new car today, meg dci 175 to go alongside the r26. Neighbours now convinced I'm a trader.
