Spotted it on the forecourt this morning. No idea of price/condition or anything, but it's there for sale if anyone's interested? Looked bloody great, imo.... :D D.

Nice one - tips aplenty here! I found the microwave idea funny! You've actually answered my next question too. Obviously, claying is something only to be done when needed. I did have the idea of maybe twice a year being enough and that seems to be the consensus here... Is there anything that...

Cheers for the tips acejon. :cool: Is the standard bottle of Quik Detailer fluid plenty enough for a full car too? D.

How far would an 85g bar go on a 182? I know you're supposed to use it roughly in three pieces or so, but am I likely to go through a full bar on say the bonnet and front wings? I'd rather buy more than one that to run short half-way through! ;) Also, do clay bars have a shelf life? Can they...

Sounds good wozzaa ;) Just installing it now..... D.

I really think its about time that insurance companies should get off their arses and start analysing the vast databases of information that they have at hand. The whole issue of age is bad enough (sub 67.2 years of age and forget about getting a decent quote) but the postcode one is just as...

Nice one m8 - cheers :) D.

Lovely jubbly. I hope it's still got the Aussie V8s from the single player demo? ;) D.

Are they good enough for everyday driving or are their 3rd party options that are much better out there? On my Punto GTT, I noticed a much smoother engine response across the range, after ditching the Fiat stock items. That's not surprising really - Italian manufacturing and worthy...

Here, here! The official 'line' is that we're on 2MB broadband with Wanadoo. But because the phone line into our house was laid when Cromwell was giving the Royals some jip, I can't break the 512k mark.... :( D.

Subtle. But against the rules on here..... D.

I'd certainly recommend one. :approve: I've got the smaller 2GB version and thats more than plenty enough for me. Suprisingly for an Apple product, it has far more function than just form alone. The i-Tunes software, though a tad fiddly at times is pretty straight-forward - certainly after a...

Maz - not sure if this sounds daft or not, but can you see any batch numbers/production ref. numbers on the Magnex? Even if you don't have a proof of purchase, surely a digi-photo of these sent to them directly with an irrate letter from yours truly would warrant at least some response from...

LOL - 1.2 16v to a 172 Cup? Be careful with the GO pedal, m8! ;) D.

An RS1800 against a 172 would have no chance in standard form. It was comparable to my Punto GTT low-down, but once the turbo had spooled up, it was much quicker than the RS. As for the Neon, does he mean the SR-T version? D.

She probably just got her insurance quote through. Must be difficult being a woman and paying £3.50 a year.....(asbestos suit, here I come....!) ;) D.

I have on mine ;) SoundBlaster X-Fi Fatal1ty out to a Cambridge SoundWorks DTT3500 Dolby Digital Decoder using a optic fibre cable. Also used the same on my nVidia SoundStorm audio before that. Not that common but some of us do use it.... D.

Yep, I've got the X-Fi Fatal1ty as well. If you can stretch your budget to this or the Elite Pro model, it's worth it as each of these cards has the 64MB X-Ram onboard, whereas the Xtreme Music and Platinum versions don't. I got mine for the sole intention of improving Battlefield 2. The...

wozzaa - I've also noticed that different resolutions and V-sync enable/disable options seem to make quite a bit of difference in the default settings of most games. I had a dabble with Halo on the PC over the weekend and set it to 1024x768. Looked bright but a bit jerky. Upped it to 1280x1024...

Cheers m8! :D I've used the duct-tape mod for the torch before and set all the brightness, contrast and gamma sliders to show the game 'how it should be', imo. Having things dark and moody is one thing - having it programmed where you can't see feck all isn't dark and moody - it's just...

I reinstalled D3 and chucked on the expansion pack as I thought I hadn't given the game much effort the first time around. What pissed me off the most was the total darkness of it - no atmosphere, just pure annoyance. Anyways, I set all my controls, enabled EAX 4.0 etc, etc and clicked on New...

Would have been about 1'ish this afternoon - reg started FY04 I think. You pulled up behind me at the lights. I was driving the Cayenne Turbo in front..... :cool: D.

^^^^ - nowt like being honest, Matt! ;)

That GT85 sounds good. Is that the actual full name of the product? Can you get it from places like Halfords? Rory - never heard of that one you suggested m8?! Cheers, D.

PMSL! :D Good find....! D.

What, the car or her? ;) D.

Spotted it going past the Bee-Hive roundabout, then onto Junc.5 of the M65 about 5.40pm last night. Had some nice rims on it and after-market zorst. Couldn't get much closer to see if it had a CS sticker or anything as I had Driving Miss Daisy in front of me in a Mondeo. :dapprove: Looked...

You've got a fair point there, wozzaa. For the most part, I only run things in 1024x768 or 1280x1024 resolution on a 19" Iiyama CRT screen. My PC spec is certainly just average - XP3200+, MSI nForce2 Ultra mobo, 1.5GB Corsair DDR400 and a Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty card - the Fatal1ty itself has...

Do stats really mean that much though? We had a system with an Athlon X2 4800, single X1900XT (512MB), stuck on an A8N Ultra mobo yesterday and tbh, it just looked good to me - not jaw-droppingly good like I thought it would. We ran BF2, UT2004 and Performance Test on it and in all honesty, the...

Just thinking what would be the best product to use on my door locks, boot lock, etc? Is good 'ol WD the best way to go, or would a thicker grease-based product be better instead? Cheers, D.
