Um, not sure - spec looks pretty good for the price and Sony screens are great. Hater's will be along soon, but if any impartial experts want to comment on spec they're welcome.....

Or if you're willing to go for a desktop and get a bigger screen...

I guess it's the FW11E? A mate at work just got one of these through his insurance - it's pretty tasty. I'd have one, although I'd prefer on of the AR series.

We had a training session on it the other week, along with an update on Windows Mobile 6.1. Xperia looks very nice!

What a great quote from the man who disappeared off into the distance and had to keep slowing down for us to catch up ;) 2001 172 with no TC FTL :(

Probably need to create or photograph some kind of texture and the play around with levels and masks. I guess your going for that sort of 'peeling paint/print' effect?

Cool, thanks for the tip.

I'm sure someone said that that the existing dampers can be drilled to lower without any hardware changes - I could be completely wrong though...

Yep, that's the one - I was trying that, but didn't want to try too hard in case it was wrong. Will give it another go tonight. Cheers!

Don't know if this has been suggested yet, but seeing as how it's white with red wheels I think you should get a 'Clio RS' (or 'RS Clio') decal running round the bottom in a 911 GT3RS stylee - same style font antd everything.

I've just notice that one of the interior trim panels in the rear of my 172 isn't sitting quite right (I think it was moved when I had a dent taken out on rear panel). Anyway, I'm trying to correctly relocate it but can't figure out how it's supposed to fix in where it meets the window. Should...

Don't like - didn;t they only sell 1 or 2 of them? ph-rare

Sorry, just realised I should have said Vodafone Banbury - not just a random Banbury reference.

Not me, but we sometimes get a Flame Red 172 with tints and an aftermarket exhaust down here in Banbury.

No, just pull the handle as normal and it'll unlock.

Morning all, Has anyone yet looked into the cost of a cambelt change on a 197? Is it as much of a pain the arse as the 172/182? or have they refind the design to make it easier (i.e. cheaper)? Greg

Maybe we should start selling it on eBay? 'Performance PSI, as used in F1', or 'Green PSI, for 10% improved fuel economy!' Kerching! :cool:

I wish I'd never posted this now.... :dapprove: Sony haters! ;) Must say that I never even looked at the price.

About 7.30 last night? Plate ending 'MSA', I think.

8gb cards aren't too expensive nowadays.... :)

Now, I know more megapixels isn't necessarily a good thing, and no doubt Canon/Nikon users are going to slate it simply for being a Sony, but it's got a 24.6 megapixel full frame sensor! Beast! http://www.sony.co.uk/product/dss-digital-slr/dslr-a900

"Nearly had me? You never had your car!"

It's got one of those god-awful rear spoilers too. A load of the V6s at RWS had these - sorry if anyone has one but they look dreadful.

If you're going to leave it on the floor at least put something flat a solid underneath, so it's not sat straight onto carpet. I used to use a big reference type book, but laminate shelves of things like that will work too.

Didn't know this, but racers are running in a very controlled environment - i.e. they know what corners they'll be going around, surface quality, how often and the speeds they'll be doing... I take you're not going to be doing this to your Cup racer then? ;)

Morning all, does anyone know of anywhere that does student discount on PCs or laptops? Cheers.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding this, but surely the issue isn't the wheels being spaced out further than the should? IT's probably not sensible, but should cause too much of an issue. The problem is the tyres are actually stretched out of shape, which must make a right mess of the effective grip...

First water shot is great - especially with no tripod! Shame about the leafy twig thing on the right though.

Agreed ;)
