Had a few comments - last one was when a Focus RS owner and me were moaning about the price of super unleaded a few months back. :)
The oddest/most memorable one I've had was at Sainsbury's at Marsh Mills, Plymouth - when I had the Punto GT. Just on my way to head back up north when a modded...
I don't know much about the standard 182 stereo, so which cable would I need to connect it to an iPod? I take it that it would involve ejecting the unit out itself and then connecting the cable to the rear?
Does the cable simply connect to the earphone connector of the iPod, or does it have the...
Agree - one of Westwood's finest. Had that when I was at uni.
Remember playing the original C&C on two PCs connected via serial cable back then. Sllllloooooowwwwww - lol!

Lol - I remember some of the early games being totally unplayable with the turbo button on. It did have a funky red light when switched on too. ;)
Mad to think, isn't it - that 25, 33, 50 and 66Mhz were like the 'storming performers' of their day. Yet we don't bat an eyelid at CPUs now running...
If grease has gone all over the inner rim of the alloy, then the best way to clean them I've found is a simple warm water mix with Fairy washing-up liquid and a cheap car sponge from Halfords. Comes off a treat, but be sure to give the alloy a good rinse afterwards.
I also washed an wiped my...
Nah - it's gone twice on mine. Even the Renault CV clip was less than a quid, iirc?
Silly design really - they should have done something better on that. I first noticed that something was amiss when my braking went to s**t. Clearly the grease had splashed over the front disc as well. :eek:

Yep - something about the decimel placing, iirc. Wasn't there a calculation error after seven decimel places or something?
I remember that case where some engineers had a major issue contructing a bridge correctly because they had based their figures from software using early Pentiums.

Awesome card at the time. :) Absolute biatch at times for it to work (drivers mainly) with my other card at the time - a SoundBlaster 16ASP.
Bought mine in Seattle where it was much cheaper than over the border in Canada, where it was made. :S

Iiyama would be top of my list, Roy. Have you checked their range out?
I've personally stayed clear of any widescreen options for now - still preferring the 4:3 aspect ratio. I use a widescreen 23" at work, which is brilliant from an IT viewpoint - paired with a 19" 4:3 monitor.
For gaming...
Good effort, Lee. Though from the Master of Rackage Appreciation himself, I would have expected more emphasis on the paps pics. ;)
Awesome Porker shots there though and you're right - that blue colour is simply stunning. And then the RSR below it? Good god............ p**n!

The RS one off the boot? Just wash the area as normal and then get a piece of dental floss. Cuts through the sticky foam backing quite easily.
I washed the area again (very carefully though as there is a LOT of crap behind there) and then polished off the remaining bits of foam backing.

I completely agree.
Until you put games on it. ;)
Have they actually got off their arse and sorted out the SLi issues with Vista 64 yet? The sole reason why I haven't wanted to pursue a Crossfire setup. It's just put me off completely. Hopefully Windows 7 will address some of these core...
Really like the shape of these....
....except.....
.....that silly little bulge that they had on the headlight unit (for the sidelights?). Looks like a zit waiting to burst!
Seats and interior look much better than the likes of a 182. :)

V.good point! If it handles well enough, why change it? You can always alter the suspension at a later date if you're planning on owning it for a few years.
Personally, I would pick the racing blue over the arctic. Arctic blends in too well and doesn't make the car stand out. Then again, if...
Nah. Would look great with a black combo look. Get the sidepods, alloys and boot spoiler repainted black, together with a carbon splitter. Would look awesome then, I think. :)

Funny how from two angles, the colours look noticably different. Pure grey on the bottom pic, a lot more of a blue-tinge to the top pic.
Still looks good, imo.

If its the same as the 182's, you should have a switch down to your lower right on the dash. That also enables the speed limiter too.
Next to the ESP button.
