I've owned the monaco 172 now for 5 and a half years and as much as it is a 10 years old french car that obviously has its flaws, I feel a strange attachment to it...but are unsure where to go with it next. I remember thinking about selling it at the back end of 2010 (but was totally in love...

It's been quite a while since I've been on here and must say, its looking great! Since I changed from a desk job to working outdoors (3 years ago), buying and renovating a house and getting married, it seems I'm only just starting to get back any sort of free time so thought I would check back...

Just wanted to thank Stava for his impeccable service when sorting out a replacement resistor pack for the 172. If anyone is having problems with their aircon/climate control playing up (not responding to being turned on/off/up/down etc it really is an easy fix) drop him a PM and £35 and...

I currently have a Blaupunkt Freestyler Travelpilot E Headunit. It has the leads connected to allow the 172's steering wheel stalk to work, and I also have a parrot bluetooth kit (ck3000). Im looking to get a new headunit as the current one doesnt allow an iPhone/iPod connection, but will I...

Just saw some screenshots from the second installment of this fantastic game: New Batman: Arkham City Screens Almost Look Too Good To Be True Trailer here: Batman: Arkham City Release date rumoured around Autumn 2011. Cannot wait!!!!

Ads_172 popped up on Monday for an Enhancement on his Bora. The task was as much paint correction as possible in a 1 day period. Although the car wasn't VERY swirled, VAG paint is pretty damn hard and after seeing some of the pics I knew it would be a tricky one. Seeing as I'm not one for...

FFS. Google will not work on ANY browser. Every other site works fine if the address is input into the browser itself, but Google won't work. Nor will searching into the address bar of Chrome. Any ideas? I'm on the verge of insanity/throwing the pc out of the window/drinking coffee.

I have an old Acer laptop (circa 2006, running XP) and a while back I ditched it as it kept dying on me. I'm going away with work and it would be kind of handy, but evidently the problem hasn't fixed itself whilst its been sat in the cupboard ;). When I turn it on, it boots. Then I get this...

Was behind you coming out of St. Oswalds yesterday (6:15ish iirc). You guna lower it then?

I am selling my iPhone on eBay atm, and someone from Germany who I have dealt with before is trying to bid on it. I have 100% made sure that Germany is not in the exclusion list for postage options: but the buyer gets: Anyone have ANY idea what I can do? The auction ends in a few hours...

I've got a quick question I would like to ask referring to contracts. Can't make a phonecall atm (at work) but can obviously get on here. Thanks!!!

Morning!

A yottabyte is one quadrillion gigabytes (or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes). Fancy buying one? But then when you think the combined space of all the computer hard drives in the entire world does not amount to even one yottabyte, I'm not suprised. Oh, and the WORLDS GDP is only $61...

So its this time of year again. We're fully aware the new iPhone will be announced, more details of OS4.0 and then there are chances of an iTunes update, Safari update, 0Sx improvements, and upgrades potentially to the Mac pro and Air. We know Steve Jobs will be there and we know Gizmodo wont...

Just a quick question if anyone works in insurance. If playing by the book, am I correct in saying you cant have 2 vehicles in your name, with separate policies and use your NCB on both policies? If this is the case (which I think it is), is there a method of insuring 2 vehicles on one...

Dave (DH182) popped over this afternoon for a correction on his headlights. They werent in the worst condition I've seen, but I can see why he wanted them doing! Here are a few pics. Before: After: Great meeting you mate and hope you are happy with the result. For those who...

If I want to upload a load of photos to a site, but want to put a signature at the bottom of the image, do I have to edit each photo seperately, adding the signature each time, or is there a program that can do it to a host of images at the same time? Oh, and free preferably.

I've been planing the first detail of 2010 for a while now. Thankfully the forecast was spot on this weekend, so managed to get everything done I had planned too. The headlights have been bugging me for a while now, so decided to wet sand them and machine polish to see what results I could get...

Had a few hours spare this morning and wanted to sort out the headlights as best as possible. Not quite sure how they are this damaged, but let me know if im not alone..... They have been bugging me for a while, sure you can see why: So after some wet sanding (1000, 2000, 2500, 3000) I...

Im after a refurb on the wheels. Its the only thing that really bugs me with the car. They have a few kerb markings on and the paint is starting to get a bit....pitted? discoloured? on some areas. How much am i looking at for a refurb on 4 wheels, and is there anyone that does it/recommended...

I have been reading through the tyre poll and a few other threads on here. I will need to change all corners in the next month or so and have been looking at prices for tyres that have been recommended in the poll (in the posts, not just the poll options). After checking a few sites, these are...

Car is showing it's 30degrees outside. Now I'm no expert, but I think it's wrong lol. Is this anyway linked to my interior climate control temperature sensor being broken? Cheers.
