    Chromecast/pc monitor/bluetooth speaker

    Yes I have Chromecast on my TV, which has an Onkyo sound system attached. Especially great with Spotify & Nest mini - Just tell it to play whatever and out it comes with great sound 😚

    Bit of a niche question - Partner on your insurance

    So on the recommendation of everyone above I tried Admiral today... smidge over £800! I'm paying £350 with Greenlight 😬 so that's a definitely no go for me.

    Recommend me some Headphones

    Love Grado, mine lasted me a long time... but I go through headphones like nothing. Probably 10+ pairs in the last 15 years. Currently on Microsoft Surface Headphones which I really like. Did have AKG ones too but they died a few weeks ago :(

    The new TV thread

    I searched AVForums to find the best settings for my TV when I got it :)

    Bit of a niche question - Partner on your insurance

    I think the problem is being heavily modified as well. Most companies don't want to touch me because of that 😬 Admiral seem to get a lot of love in this thread, though I'm sure they're on Confused? Which I always check.

    Bit of a niche question - Partner on your insurance

    I think I definitely will be fighting my corner a bit next time, stating that people on ClioSport don't have a problem so why me :p To be fair I've always got on with Greenlight as a company before this. When I was insuring my Mini I had a right old chinwag with the guy on the phone, was a good...

    Bit of a niche question - Partner on your insurance

    I've got an Astra VXR now... 240bhp. Standard at the moment, but already have splitters, new wheels, coilovers etc. in my shed ready to go on. So will soon be beyond what a 'normal' insurer will want to touch. I will have to check her policy. She was named on my Clio 182 years back, but...

    Bit of a niche question - Partner on your insurance

    I was happily with Aviva for years, until they changed it that you could only have 4 modifications 🤷‍♂️ The reason I've stuck with Greenlight other than initial price, is all power mods covered for free, which is pretty good when for instance my last car I increased the bhp by almost 20%

    Bit of a niche question - Partner on your insurance

    Hi I'm with Greenlight who give me an unbeatable price compared to others I've tried. However they do have one rather annoying policy, which is that they won't insure my partner on my car as she's never had a 'performance' car of her own. This is very frustrating as the only situation we would...

    Steering wheel retrim options/advice

    I just got mine done by Royal a couple of months ago. Alcantara on top and bottom, and perforated leather on sides. Absolutely love it! Nice to grip, especially in this cold weather. Don't ever want to go back to leather on top lol...

    Is Pistonheads classifieds dying?

    Have bought and sold on there previously, but yeah I don't even bother checking now :( shame really because the forums are still very good. Only bother with Autotrader and eBay, and Gumtree if I get really desperate!

    Dent man - did I get ripped off?

    Do you have a number/email? My bro just picked up a new car which needs a few bits sorted.

    PS5

    I've been playing through God of War for months now, been stuck on the same fucker for many weeks... it's a good game, but no way compares to my favourite games on PS3 (Bioshock, GTA, Portal, Uncharted) I know there's no real need for this comment lol, but I just feel personally that God of War...

    It’s that time of year again... car insurance

    Thing is with Greenlight is they cover all mods, even power increases for free... that's a massive advantage for me. Before them I was with Aviva for years and very happy, but then they changed their policy to only allowing 4 mods for free, then you had to pay to cover any more (n)

    iPhone 12

    The biggest upgrade you'll find I'm sure is the change in iOS using touch gestures rather than home button. Completely game changing for day to day usage. Biggest camera upgrade should be portrait mode if the iPhone 8 didn't have that? Absolutely great for kiddie photos!

    PS5

    I'll probably be getting one of these next spring; hoping there's an all black version out by then!

    It’s that time of year again... car insurance

    Really? I've had Clio RS, Astra VXR and Cooper S all insured without a problem. I know they don't touch BMW...

    It’s that time of year again... car insurance

    Greenlight are untouchable for me - Such a good price I don't even bother looking around anymore (at least £200 cheaper than others I've tried)

    The new TV thread

    Is there some recommendations for this? I'm looking to get the PS5 next year, and will be getting a new TV when the new models come out, around April? Not sure what I'm looking for to be honest. Probably looking around 50"

    iPhone 12

    Okay. I'm not sure I do 'renew' my contract as such, I'm just on SIM only deal paying £20 p/m for years now. I'll be sure to mention it to them though. I've just taken out a new broadband contract! Starts Wednesday...

    Hang on I've worked for the NHS for 10 years lol... where's my discount. Guessing it won't apply as I'm not a new customer.

    Ebay 20% discount r888r's ar-1's etc

    Thanks. I'll find out for myself in November :)

    Ebay 20% discount r888r's ar-1's etc

    That's not bad, do you rate these tyres? Never had Falken before, but I've just ordered 4 FK510 in 18" for more than that. Doh!

    The New Phone Thread

    I did hear rumours of an event on 1st Oct, but seems a bit soon now as invites haven't even gone out yet? One good thing about the pandemic; no leaks!

    PS5

    🤪 Note the part where I say I agree though... it is horrendous looking, and absolutely massive it seems. Happy to hide it! And to be fair to her she said if the digital copies cost more she'll pay the extra lol.

    PS5

    I never buy consoles at release, I'm just not in a rush lol. Probably pick one up next year. We're moving in a few months and missus has already told me the PS5 is too ugly to be seen in our living room :p I actually agree that it looks horrendous. She wants it hidden away somewhere in our new...
