yeah, everyone's ok. both 182s are lease cars so got a company handling the claim. they sorted everything out. picked up the clio and rather than the courtesy car from the garage, they hired a mini cooper (not too bad actually) and sending me to docs for check up ;)
guy was on his way to...
the 182 is nearly three years old so was off for its MOT today. got mate from work to follow me (in his 182) to the garage to collect me. stopped at lights with him behind and see an ambulance (mini-bus style) coming way too quick (pi55ing it down) and fly into the back of him pushing him into...
i was trying to work out costs of an ST over a Golf the other day and went a little bit anal:
£4.30 per gallon, 10,000 miles
25mpg = £1,720
27mpg = 1,591
30mpg = 1,431
32mpg = 1,341
33mpg = 1,303
34mpg = 1,264
really doesn't make much diff, does it?
try this then. boot.ini is just a text file but you can play with it from here....
properties of My Computer (right click to get) then choose Advanced and Startup Blah Blah. Should have all the options there that you need
depends what OS you're running. i'm guessing you're on an MS OS. you'll probablt want to take a look at your boot.ini file at root of disk. you could get acronis disk director to take care of everything in a nice little GUI boot manager
do any of you bother with an external aerial? i always find it a tricky getting a lock when first using due to that stupid film on the screen. been thinking about getting an aerial from eBay for about £10
excuse the horrid curtains (rented granny flat!). watching tv at mo but have a 360. guess it's about 7 by 4 foot
usually used for life size p**n :) stick to girl on girl cos the c0cks look too big
I was changing my sidelights for bluevisions and noticed that there appears to be a bulb serving no purpose in my headlight?!
There's the indicator, then the xenon and then the "pointless" one, followed by the sidelight.
The only thing I was thinking was for the mainbeam but then I thought...
It was the toys that swayed it for me on the Clio. It was a hot summer and the CTR was an extra (i think) £1k for air con!! And it has none of the other nice bits that come with the Clio.
If ultimate performance was the one thing I wanted then I might have got one. But then I'd have probably...
mine went at about 10K. done under warranty - i think
(as was: new cat [broken flange - still makes me giggle], engine mount and steering wheel. 40K on clock now)
doh! just a simple fuse. should of checked but as everything still half-worked i thought it's be something worse. i feel dumb
my girlfriend had an old style clio. her wipers kept coming on randomly. one day they wouldn't stop. i took the fuse out thinking that'd work. nope! eventually the...
When ignition is on stuff doesn't work. Stuff:
Dash display,
Stereo on/off,
Lights in visors,
Nokia carkit (also stopped muting HU)
Also noticed that the interior light stopped working when the doors are opened.
All started on Friday night at the same time. Lights still come on and...
i only got the 182 over the civic because it came with all the extras. don't care what people say about that. that's also why i wouldn't consider the cup (i'm a good driver. just not good enough to notice a tiny weight saving - which is normally lost due to passengers/junk in boot [sorry, off...
pst files should be avoided. if they're stored locally then you've got recovery issues. you get people storing them on network drives then taking up more space than if they were left in their mailboxes. exchange is a database. someone sends a file with a 20mb attachment to 50 people you got one...
my right thumb grip torn to shreds. went a bit spongy, then cracked and now there's not much left of it. going to get it replaced next week (although it won't be me paying as it's leased). think its real crap that renault won't replace these but its things like this that remind me why i went for...
i've just been looking though my sky+ stuff (250Gb so there's quite a bit) and realised that everything i record from is available on freeview!! think it's time to get a freeview PVR. save the £40/month. can i do without soccer am though?!?!?
freeview be even better now film4 is free :)
i got fed up of waiting for the k800 on o2 ("sorry systems are down" "won't be in until next week" "it's out of stock" etc). went for the k610i instead. would have liked the k610im but won't be out for a bit. was due upgrade in may. wanted an n80 but then saw what a brick it is!! will never use...
you can have my backs. there's a couple of mill left. got 25k out of 'em. 3rd pair of fronts now - so that's about 12.5k each set for all you mathematicians ;)
