    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    The G series M3 (especially the touring) has massively grown on me, to the point where I might even make one my next purchase. Really still haven’t got to terms with the G series M4, just don’t like them 🤷🏻‍♂️

    It really is a shame. Made worse by the fact she left me (or more specifically, moved all my stuff out whilst I was abroad!)

    My ex has one of these (white, V6), along with a mk2 Astra GTE and 200SX sitting in a lock up somewhere. They were her late husbands but she doesn’t know where the keys or any of the paperwork are as they got lost at some point over the years. I desperately tried to get her to do something about...

    It drives me INSANE that my current gf says Aldi instead of Audi. She has one, and it’s always broken, therefore the word gets mentioned (wrongly!) quite a bit 😡 The worst of it is that she’s very intelligent and knows full well that she’s saying it wrong, it’s almost like a bad habit that she...

    VERY roomy. No word of a lie, I used to take my quad bike to and from my mates farm in the back of it! Dropped the rear seats, loosened the handlebars so they could be rotated down, and then slid the drivers seat as far forward as it would go. Was f**king uncomfortable, but did the trick! For...

    Mine was an S reg, but also the dark blue; unfortunately I wasn't cool enough to have colour coding, so I had all the black plastic bits instead. And I remember the green dials were so dull I could barely read them at night on top of all the vibrations :ROFLMAO: Still, other than the clutch...

    Really wish I'd been able to get a picture, but last weekend I was following a white BMW 116i. Well, it was actually an "M116i Competition Sport Turbo", but who am I to judge 🤷‍♂️

    No pic unfortunately, but I saw a yellow Fiat Punto Turbo drive the opposite way to me last night! I assume it was legit from the brief glimpse I had, but even seeing just a boggo mk1 Punto is a rarity these days. In fact, I can't remember the last time I saw a Punto of any age TBH. I had a...

    I came here for pictures of big willies... Thread did not deliver, very disappointed. 2/10

    Saw a red and gold Ferrari SF90 today, unfortunately no picture. Very strange to see it trying to find a space at the nearby shopping centre though. The spaces are so tight there that I hate parking my car let alone something of that value… If I had one, I’d definitely be using my daily for a...

    Should’ve scrolled further down before posting 😂 Glad you’re sorted anyway!

    Yeah within the app. Not sure how you’ve set them up i.e. how they’re grouped, but the white balance (assuming you can adjust it on the model you have) is found on the settings for the tv backlight, not the general colour settings for the whole group. You have to activate video first, then it’s...

    I had this problem too, unfortunately I can’t remember what I had to do to fix it… I think I had to change the white balance as well as the saturation to correct it. I’m not certain though, sorry.

    Hope you’re happy with them once they’re all set up. Might have a few headaches getting them all synced and colour matching at first though as it was a bit of frustrating job for me. That said, I am a bit OCD and they had to be precise, so most people probably wouldn’t be as fussy 😂

    Bit of a boring video, but gives more of a demo of their capabilities

    This is how I have it 90% of the time. It’s on an automation so comes on just before I get home from work and goes off at bedtime (in the winter). Got a few other automations set for when I’m on holiday etc too

    Completely depends on the mood I’m in. If I’m watching a horror or something with lots of tension or action going on then it adds a much greater depth to the experience, especially when the surround sound is blasting out. Sometimes though it just gives me a headache or is too much for the mood...

    Took a bit of tweaking to get the colour matching set up correctly, but works well and I’m really happy with them. Although I will admit that more often than not I just have set colours as mood lighting rather than the reactive lighting. As cool and effective as they are, sometimes it can be a...

    I second the Govee stuff. They had a good sale on recently, not sure if it's still going though. I'll find some pics/videos and post them up

    Genuinely forgot all about the Tigra! Strangely I quite liked them in their day...the MK2 was terrible though. Not sure of the last time I saw one of those, either

    Sorry buddy, somehow missed your post…thank you! As far as I know they should have everything already but maybe they’re just disorganised. Either way, I will go through all the original stuff I sent and just make sure it’s worded correctly and factually before resending it. I believe the third...

    Advice - accident in 2021

    Anyway, I’ve called the insurers again and unsurprisingly they weren’t able to give me a straight answer on anything and it was quite apparent that the person on the phone doesn’t really seem to know what’s what. I can only hope the legal representative has a better understanding of it. So...

    I only renewed fairly recently, end of May/start of June I think it was. So not worthwhile really considering how expensive it was 😂

    The accident was 2021, it was “settled” in 2022. Even if it goes from the date of the accident, I’ll still have to declare it for 2 more renewals 😡

    Advice - accident in 2021

    Thanks for this info. I’m going to give them a call shortly and go through it all properly. They need to change the form anyway as they spelt my name wrong (idiots) and I no longer live at the address they’ve used. Still, all just seems like an unnecessary f**k over on my part. If they’d have...
