Ok, I've just done the GPU thing and it works! I did the following: 1) Bought 2 years of Gold from CDKeys 2) Redeemed on my xbox account and as my membership lapsed I was offered an extra month if I turned on monthly billing - Result was 25 months of gold on my account, next bill date Oct 2022...

So the conversion from EA Play to GPU will be 3:1, I was under the impression it was 1.5:1 for gold to GPU but I think that was GP to GPU now I think about it. Yeh, I think I'll try it, will buy 2 years from CD Keys (is that the cheapest place to get UK codes? £39.99 a year atm) and try it out...

I'm planning to buy UK codes, it's not worth the hassle of Brazil ones for the saving just incase they decide to start banning people etc. Never do this trick with anything like Netflix or Spotify either. I've been reading further into it, it looks like any remaining XBL Gold on your account is...

Are you sure? I've read this on AVF - https://www.avforums.com/threads/game-pass-ultimate.2314277/page-4#post-28431675

@DeeKay86 Now I've bought one outright, I need to buy GPU. I had GPU during lockdown, but it has expired (a couple of months ago I think). Am I still eligible to buy 3 years of gold and then pay £1 to convert it? Or has that workaround sailed now I've been a member before?

I've ordered on Amazon, giving up with the all access crap.

My Game wait time just keeps going up, was due to be in before 8am, now it's more like 8:10

There's a queue to log in to Game now...

I've never bought day one before. I was too young to care about new consoles when the original came out, I bought the 360 on day 2 from Woolworths with money from my Saturday job, and after cancelling my XB One pre-order I bought it on day 2 from Game (in some crazy overpriced package). It's...

I'm currently in France, it's 8am already here! Can't decide wether to order from Smyths or Game. Game will have more stock surely but Smyths will have less demand.

I think I'm going to do the all access tomorrow if I can. Otherwise I'll just preorder to buy outright.

The scary thing for me is that I'm now older than you were when we first met 🤣

That's good to know, I work in automotive and we have access to the VIP deals, I've just never looked into it more than the website and emails they send out.

Were VIP doing them on an offer? I've checked the scheme out a few times but I've not seen them as cheap as the current general public deals.

It will, it's just batteries degrade, and the total capacity is less. I'm on 86%, had my XS since Nov 18. Might get the 12 Pro if offers are decent again on black friday, if not I'll probably end up paying apple to swap the battery.

I searched the internet for a couple of minutes but got bored. When will the first Forza come out for the new series X? Will the new flight sim be on it? And is there a definitive list of titles (not just the handful at launch, the confirmed in first 6 months)?

Avoid Hisense tbh, the software is complete shite. Mine crashes just changing the volume, it came with an extended warranty and I've been fighting them for over a month now to fix/replace the bloody thing properly. If I end up with money back, unlikely, I'll probably get an LG or Sony OLED.

Stratstone were doing a PCP deal for £499 deposit and £499 a month over 4 years this month. Silly cheap all things considered, although it was standard spec + DCT, no packs and in stock only, something like £11k dealer contribution and 1.5% apr. I really fancy one of these for my next car...

How does the with Netflix work? Can I use the subscription on my other devices and in 4K like I can with my regular netflix sub?

Love it! I’ve seen the photos on Instagram you’ve been posting and it always gets me looking at them again. I still think I’d go DCT though. How do you find the steering compared to the e92? And if you’ve driven the M135/140/235/240 how does it compare to them.

Completely agree with this list, I have the adaptive suspension and auto, running PS4’s. I’d want an LSD before I got any more power, but I don’t want any more power so I’m happy with it now. The steering is utter crap, it’s taken me a year of ownership to become confident driving the car...

I remember we went up to holme moss in the snow, likely the same time those pics were taken as you don't keep a car that long Jim 😉

Had mine (55U7A) for a couple of years now, really happy with it. Picture is brilliant, and sound is good too for a flatscreen. The smart system is quite no thrills, but it's got all the catchup apps along with netflix, YT and Amazon which suits my needs, I mainly watch 4K Netflix on it. The...

The Herald, which I own with a friend, was purchased for £300 and we gave ourselves a budget of £3000 to fix it up. In the 2 years we spent restoring it we spent £12k, and that includes no bodywork and all labour was done ourselves except a couple of hundred quid of machine shop time. We did end...

I'm running the new Eagle F1s on mine. They seem great in all conditions so far but do wear quite fast. But then again coming from the e91 on run flats I'm used to that!

I'm surprised you're back in one! I bought mine a few months ago and read a lot of your posts at the time. Looks a good spec, except the 5 door 😋 I also made sure I got the spec I wanted and lucked out on a 1 owner one being sold privately just down the road from me. Even though it's not...

Got linked to this by a friend, I miss the meets man! I dunno why anyone would have an issue with you, we def need a meet up again with the classic Yorkshire peeps!

Been looking at TVs for a while now and finally took the plunge and ordered this last night - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302717885710 Currently 10% off AO eBay, so about £580 it was, it comes tomorrow. Bit of a gamble as it's a brand new model, the first proper review only came out today on...

Bad batch of batteries iirc, something to do with how they were stored.

£21 (or more likely £30) is cheap though, if they sold them they wouldn't be so cheap. Also, bit of an FYI, but some phones can get a free replacement - https://www.apple.com/uk/support/iphone6s-unexpectedshutdown/ Mine is eligible, finally getting around to taking it in this afternoon.
