    Thought I'd share...

    Yup, only the Cup Styling pack, but hey - if I'm taking it to bits and putting polybushes and coilovers in, and want the silver wheels, why would I pay more/spend longer looking and turn down this mint 2yr old 9k example? Before anyone mentions tyres, the way I drive they're lucky to last 3...

    Thought I'd share...

    Hi all, You've probably noticed me lingering around like a bad smell recently, with no idea who I am? Well I introduced myself down in one of the other threads the other day, now here's some pics of my motor after a quick clean! Still waiting on PC and half of the polishing kit, but this...

    Full-Fat 182 or 182 Cup ???

    Nope. I like my creature comforts, and if you're that anal about 20kg, get down the gym fatty.

    Xbox 360 Premium-any good deals ??

    You look confused. Have a quick search, there's 2 or 3 threads on this in the last couple of days. And not sure on release, I don't think it'll be too long though - early 2007 certainly.

    Xbox 360 Premium-any good deals ??

    Wait for v2. Prices will crash on the old one, or if you want the features of the new one get that.

    New XBOX 360 with HDMI and 120gb HDD on the way!

    I know there are several!!! But 90% of the UK's population are fuckwits and get a 32" HD-Ready screen from Argos!!!

    New XBOX 360 with HDMI and 120gb HDD on the way!

    They're talking about the consumer market, and bearing in mind you have to spend £2k plus to get proper 1080p, they don't really take that into account. *Waits for arguments about how he got his off someone for a grand*

    how do i start a website?

    Same as Sunburn, I'm a designer (more in my spare time now!) - a completely unfinished example being http://www.proactif.co.uk I can also do hosting for you...

    PCI graphics card

    That's an AMR slot. As for upgrading, no hope. Also, don't get a new motherboard for it - it'll go bang. Dell use proprietary power connectors and you'll cook it - I'm afraid you've just learnt the hard way that you buy cheap, you buy twice. PCI Cards stop around the Radeon 9000 series...

    197, Trowbridge...fog lights blazing

    Fact is in the UK you really don't need fog lights - it's a very, very long time ago that I remember it being the required visibility for them.

    I upset lusty clio yesterday

    My Smart behaved impeccably last week before she went, despite a knackered clutch!

    Ipod car docking kits...

    There's usually a way of tricking the h/u into thinking there's a changer attached, and just use the audio pins to connect a 3.5mm jack.

    Anyone got a Alpine 9857 HU?

    Had a 9857 in my old Smart, not a bad HU. Good sound quality and decent amp for a built in jobbie.

    My car is dead! HELP!

    You'd know if that had happened though - you'd have earache from the racket!

    Buying more memory for my Dell dimension?

    You can't just choose DDR or DDR2, your system will be one or the other. To make matters worse, they're the same size just with different numbers of pins! If it's a P4 the chances are it's likely to be DDR. I don't think the single core non-ht chips made it as far as DDR2? P.S. Anyone clue...

    Anyone think it sounds like the solenoid not engaging the starter gear?

    What Would Stop a clio from starting the engine

    Get your mate to stand behind it, if the exhaust wobbles or open the bonnet and if the engine turns, then the motor's engaging and it's a spark or fuel problem. Take one of the plug leads out, put another plug on and make sure that the plug grounds to the head, and again turn the engine over...

    Funniest Thing You Have Been Told By A Dealer...

    My old Smart had a problem with wing mirrors, and a week after Smart of Derby had replaced it it was falling off again. I took it back to them where they took it into the workshop for a half hour, battered the hell out of it (really shouldn't put glass in if that's what they're gonna do) and...

    Funniest Thing You Have Been Told By A Dealer...

    You won't get many spitfire plugs in a Clio. You'll still have 8 of them left over!

    What Would Stop a clio from starting the engine

    Mine's not starting because I'm sat at my desk at work. Does that count?

    What Would Stop a clio from starting the engine

    Ultimately, what wouldn't stop it starting! There's a million factors, take it to a garage because unless you can be more descriptive on here we're just going to be taking potshots...

    Ripspeed

    Avoid everything Ripspeed. Even if the stuff does what it says on the tin, I'm sorry but I'd sit and laugh at you all day long. I hate it with a passion, and it tends to be awful build quality. And for chavs.

    Oh dear god... HU help please...

    Good ole' Hellfords expert! Sod the FM Modulation, don't believe anyone that tries to tell you they sound as good. They don't. Don't get the one with the Aux In - if it's on the front it's messy as sin, on the back not so much so but you can't change track without messing with the iPod, and...

    Windows Xp x64 trial

    Because it will have been until a given date at a guess, and if it's not then fark knows. They won't be able to fix it though, sounds like you're up shite creek. You'll just get told you shouldn't put it on anything other than a test machine! Bit of a b**ch though.

    These Random Orbital Polishers Anygood?

    Had one, used it on my (now ex)missus's £250 Clio. Binned it, did an alright job but was shite to use, and shite quality, and wouldn't put it anywhere near any of my cars.

    360 Component swap for VGA cable (Offical M$ only)

    The VGA Signal is out of range? As for quality, I can't make a comparison on them. I know my Plasma screen is only a 1024x768 panel, so through VGA only allows that resolution and as such haven't tried. My only gripe is I can't set the resolution of the 360 to the native resolution of my...

    Dell UltraSharp monitor

    Well done that man. Think about it, how many frames per second can your graphics card honestly do at the resolution this panel can do (I'll give you a clue - 55 with my pair of 8800GTX's SLI'd in FSX), and the XBox 360 doesn't do that many AFAIK. To push 16ms response into showing any...
