Steve - in all honesty, the 182 isn't too bad on running costs. I'm currently sat on 33.9mpg and a tankful usually lasts me a week. Servicing costs are reasonable - and typically should be done at every 12k. The 36k service usually would be a good time for the auxiliary belt to be changed as...

Not really. I know they are only jealous, anyway!.... :clown: D.

Fancied a quick drive out (despite the crap weather) - so with a quick round up of the usual suspects, we met up at Lymm services. Then headed out to Jodrell Bank Jainy passing the ever important chocolate through.... ;) Clearly the dish was being used to collect water today...

You never can have too big a case! :) D.

Looks great, Adam! What have you got running on it so far - apart from COD4, that is! ;) D.

Spotted three of them today while I've been at the Leeds depot. Two at the White Rose shopping centre and another on the M62. Didn't spot any stickers on any of them, though. Anyone? D.

Quality plate! I'd have that! ;) D.

Fair point David. I'd love to sell my Retail copy of Vista Ultimate, say for around £30. But MSoft market forces mean that it worth a damn lot more than that. And guess what. I can't sell it for the going rate! :D D.

You'll be music to the ears of Microsoft's accountants with that... "Charge them more Bill - they don't mind at all!" ;) Have you actually read the limitations of OEM? Have you changed your hardware much? That £60 you paid won't mean sh1t after a while. ....I'm not disputing that. But to be...

Hehehe! Quality! :D Any chance of a Glanza reunion, now that the missus is an ex? ;) D.

How come you got rid, Tom? D.

Good comments. Certainly looks like the R27 came out on top. I'd be mortified though if I owned an Astra VXR and it was slower around that track than a bloody 207 GTi! D.

I thought Chesterfield was only big enough for one Vee, Mossy? ;) Just a shame they've got the slower colour, eh?! D.

You need to PM TomSX - isn't the Glanza pretty much the same car? Think he had one for a while... D.

That sounds promising! I bet it was still a big wedge of money though - even for the 40% left over? D.

:( - hope you get it sorted, Ste..... D.

PMSL! Quality service then, eh?! ;) D.

That's why I think the whole OEM stuff is just total b****cks. It shouldn't even need to get that far where you're phoning bloody Bangalore. :mad: Microsoft should just get of their fat arses and charge sensible rates for their O/S software. WTF can't XP Home or Vista Home Basic be on the...

Cheers Revels!! :D D.

Hi chaps, Has anyone got a contact number for Sky to speak to them about our dodgy Sky box? It's a standard one - not Sky Plus or HD or anything. Just one minute it receives certain channels, then the next minute it says "No satellite signal is being received" No. 28 appears on-screen too...

Re: evo crash Jesus - that's bad. :( D.

...... spotted it on the other side of the road whilst on my way to do some stalking at Asda. Gave you a flash, but I don't think you saw me? D.

Ket's acid V6 with black alloys looked absolutely mint at Donington..... :approve: D.

^^^^ - That colour is p**n! D.

Moonlight is a great colour that I've seen in the pics. I'd do anything to have that on the 182! I took the following pic of James's deep bronze V6 at FCS. You can't see much difference between it and Shaun's black gold at the side of it - but in the sunlight, there is a stark difference...

That Auzen card looks good, Mike. You'll have to let us know what it's like when it arrives! Can only be good news, imo - if Creative are licensing-out their technology for other vendors to build and improve upon. Hopefully that will encourage developers to pump more resources into fully...

No worries Dave! Found this one. Takes up two slots in the chassis, but looks to have all the connectors you need? Seems cheap too - if its a piece of crap? http://www.ebuyer.com/product/85533 D.

Dave, isn't it just the non-PCI-E version you want, then? http://uk.europe.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=208&product=15855 Cracking cards - I've had the X-Fi Fatal1ty card for nearly two years. Brilliant piece of kit. Edit - doh! Missed the optical bit. Sorry. :( D.

What does the optional Renault spoiler look like? D.

Feck, m8! What resolution is on the middle screen at the back? Can you see anything on it?! :clown: D.
