    Pc for £600??

    Ant - is that price to include a monitor or not? D.

    Any ideas on how to get my car back?

    Personally, I'd get a cheap flight out there and drive it back. There must be a good number of decent roads back through Austria and Germany? :) D.

    Twingo Renaultsport trackday pics

    Does look good and sounds even better from your feedback, Lee. Reno clearly have a three-pronged view of the RS's with the Twingo, Clio and Megane. Good to hear that Reno is obviously pumping money and effort into keeping the RS brand out there. D.

    Laptop with XP

    We bought this one last week m8 for work and it seems a good piece of kit. Not sure on the silver fascia, but the screen is very, very good. http://www.pcwb.com/catalogue/item/TOSNBK10 Comes with Vista Business installed on it, but there's an XP CD in the box with all the Toshiba's drivers...

    Cerns Large Hadron Collider - Biggest Physics Experiment EVER. Discussion Here!

    Re: Cerns Large Hadrom Collider - Biggest Physics Experiment EVER. Discussion Here! Depends. Some will go to almost any lengths to prove a point. When the Yanks were refining the plutonium for the atomic bomb in WW2 - they were happily working next to the Columbia River which was having...

    182 pinking...

    Great. Another easily accessible part. :dapprove: Still, I guess there's not a lot of space to cram a 2litre lump in there. Is it easy to change? Will do! Anyone got a spare knock sensor to hand? :) No worries Tony. Thanks for looking anyway. Karl, it sounds like a rapid metallic...

    182 pinking...

    I had a thought that it could be something else. I don't actually hear the pink noise with the windows up, but if say I drive past a wall or a row of parked cars with the window down, I can definitely hear it. Like I said - the instant I even dabble the accelerator, it stops. Is the knock...

    182 pinking...

    Changed the plugs today and have given it £60 in V-Power this last week. Doesn't seem to have made any difference to the pinking noise. It's really noticable at 2k rpm in 3rd gear. Press the throttle just slightly and it stops pinking straight away. Could it be the timing? Would Reno...

    Wrong plug sequence?

    It's weird, ain't it? I would have been concerned if I pull all four plugs out at together, but one-at-once meant that they had to be numbered wrong. Bloody Frenchies. ;) D.

    Wrong plug sequence?

    Changed the spark plugs today on the 182. Did it the safe way (i.e. one at once) and worked from right to left. With the inlet housing off, the first plug had '4' written on the rubber. Next onto '3' and yet the next said '1'? :S Sure enough, the last plug to be changed said '2'. Is this a...

    Epic FAIL!!!

    Safe. Innit. D.

    Hi all... just bought a 182 :)

    That's probably just increased your status on here by a 1000%! You don't happen to make them as well, do you? Couple of bits of sticky-back plastic and a few ice cream tubs? There will be a market on here for them - I tell thee! Oh, and welcome, btw! D.

    cisco vpn client and X64

    Seems like there are a LOT of irate people out there with the same issue. Fecking stupid that Cisco hasn't properly addressed 64-bit support yet. :S D.

    cisco vpn client and X64

    Have you tried it anyway, m8? I've read that 'Cisco Any Connect' works fine on Vista 64, so I assume it would be ok on XP64? What difference that has between it and the standard VPN client, I'm not sure. D.

    Apple Mac help...

    Don't forget, if you really don't like the look and feel of the Mac OS, just fire up Windows XP in dual boot. You'll probably get to run a few decent games that way too. :) D.

    petrol 182-- swansea *pic* + blue 1*2 on wind street

    Superb colour. :) Needs to be seen in the sun to do it real justice. Bloody weather! D.

    Barron - thought you'd like the comment at the bottom of this review, too.... :) http://portals.hexus.net/?item=14888&page=5&id=microdirect ....and look at COD4 too! http://portals.hexus.net/?item=14888&page=7&id=microdirect D.

    confused!!! clio 172 bhp??

    Yep - A typical Evo 6 has approx 25% loss, iirc. So a quarter of all power produced is simply lost before it gets to the wheels. :dapprove: D.

    Part number check please, guys...

    Nice one m8 - cheers! D.

    "Becky R" - blue 182 with stripes - Blackburn

    ROFL! I'm still after a repeat rendez-vous with MrBilly's mum in his 182. I'm convinced to this day that she thought I was going to steal it. ;) D.

    Black 182 A55 Sat Afternoon

    It was black. The fastest colour...... of course. ;) D.

    "Becky R" - blue 182 with stripes - Blackburn

    Saw it again this afternoon on the usual Asda stalking grounds..... ;) Stripes do look good on arctic blue, I think. D.

    nurburgring record broken again!!

    Would be interesting to see what a BTCC car could do it in. Though I think it would need some serious ratio changes to get a half decent top speed! D.

    Mclaren F1

    Aw, man - that would be superb! I for one would like to see how a 959 would compare to say a 997 Turbo. How would 20+ years of progress actually translate on the track? I guess the insurance and s**t-scared owners would probably mean that the idea would never get off the ground. But we can...

    Lotus Cortina. Let's face it, 99% of people interested in cars would spot one a mile off - and know what it is. :) D.

    cup 182 interior?

    They look good in this pic, paul. The colour of the seat almost matches the carpet! We're they a straight swap, or did you have to mess about the rails and mounting and stuff? D.

    just test drove a 172 cup!

    Not all doom and gloom then? Good to hear that yours had that many owners and its A-ok. Hopefully the OP's Cup that he's looking at will be just as good. :) D.
