    2013 BMW 330d

    Oh I know I should have just gone and had a browse. I'm just doing my part to keep forums alive! I'm off to go in the off topic section and post a question about the weather outside my house :ROFLMAO:

    Jesus that's a lot more than I thought. Still strong money aren't they!

    2013 BMW 330d

    What's the going rate for one of these with sub 80k miles? Saloon or wagon (or even 4 series coupe).

    Charity suggestions for CSF25

    Andy's Man Club is a good choice. My mind immediately went to CALM. Similar type of charity. I've read a few threads on here where the forum has supported someone in need, and thought it would be fitting. Not to s**t on anyone else's suggestions.

    2013 BMW 330d

    Love these. Genuinely impressive motors. I had use of one for a while when they first came out. I was driving an e90 335d and it wiped the floor with it. Perhaps not figures wise, but arse-dyno wise it felt strong. Only drawback was the steering felt better on my e90, but in isolation (and for a...

    Amazon fire TV sticks

    I'm just about to setup my new Firestick. I've gone for the 4K Max version when they had money off the other day. I've been using Kodi and Stremio recently on my ancient Firestick. Are they the best/current ones? PM me if preferred, cheers!

    Amazon fire TV sticks

    I've got a new Firestick 4k Max, and I'm wondering what apps are current. Just for film and TV. I've been using Kodi with its various add-ons, but is there something better? I've been using another 'host' type programme but can't for the life of me remember what its called. Edit: Googled it, its...

    Jim's Black Ph2 172 (Just like everyone else's!)

    To be honest its done very few miles since then. Literally single figures. Life has massively got in the way. However I put it on charge today and didn't remember it being massively high at the rear. Will take a pic when the specialist has finished her under bonnet checks:

    Exhaust Options

    I work in engineering supplies and yes, stainless pricing has been mental in the last year! I'm in no rush and would like to give my business to a forum member, even if the group buy just means extra sweets in the order!

    Exhaust Options

    I'd be interested in a stealth twin box system on the group buy!

    PMS shifter bearing replacement

    Is it wrong I want to start stockpiling these parts even though I don't have a PMS shifter yet? :LOL:

    Exhaust Options

    I mean if my exhaust wasn't on the way out I wouldn't be changing it, so its ideal for me. Just can't decide between stealth or recessed. If I don't change to a recessed one, I can't regret making that decision! Whereas if I keep it as is, its like I've not made a choice at all.

    Exhaust Options

    Amazing, thank you! That sounds spot on mate.

    PMS shifter bearing replacement

    Asking because I'm curious, what's the difference?

    Ebay refurbed Power Steering Pumps

    I've had a load of stuff going on and not got round to fitting mine I'm afraid.

    Steering Wheel Retriming

    That's good to know as I've only heard good things about Jack & Royal. Do you think its a quirk of the wheel (not familiar with the mk3) or maybe a Friday afternoon job/oversight?

    HANS Device for Trackdays

    Just for the sake of conversation, what's your reasoning for wearing top but not bottoms? I was thinking the opposite, as the fire generally comes into the footwell in vids I've seen.

    182 engine swap into 1.2

    You don't need someone else telling you the same stuff again, BUT how about buying a not-perfect 182 and reshelling it with your 1.2... Similar idea but then you're still keeping your car, but you've got all the bits to swap across, such as suspension, wider wings, gearbox, rear beam with discs...

    HANS Device for Trackdays

    I was having this conversation in my head the other week! Currently I've got a single bucket seat and harness, the passenger has a standard seat & belt. I rarely take passengers on track, but I do get tuition. I wondered if having better gear for myself but not the passenger was a bit of a dick...

    HANS Device for Trackdays

    Underlayer is a really good idea actually, and will stop me looking like the Michelin man. Or at least more like him.

    HANS Device for Trackdays

    Would you folks say that its still worth getting one even if you don't have other safety gear such as fireproof clothing etc? Its a tricky one as its almost like you're choosing how to be injured. But I'd say my car is more likely to go into a wall than go on fire, but you can never really tell...

    HANS Device for Trackdays

    Another bargain hunting victory for me and my fellow big lads!

    2x This weekend, Scotland, M8 Contraflow

    Seen a couple of beauties this week just passed. Both were pretty much on the same stretch of road, M8 where its a contraflow now, near the Heart of Scotland services. Wednesday Evening - A lovely Trophy. Looked in good condition. I was driving East, you were driving West. Sunday Afternoon -...

    Tarticmonkey’s Clio 197 CUP Track Car

    It did cross my mind to track it for a laugh!

    Tarticmonkey’s Clio 197 CUP Track Car

    I'm tempted but all my free cash is going on the Merc at the minute and the Clio isn't sorted yet.

    Half Cages - Talk to me

    Half Cages - Talk to me

    I looked into this when I got my half cage, and the general consensus is that the Clio has a particularly strong A pillar/roof, and that in a reasonable rollover you would be okay with a half cage. But for me, I got offered mine for cheap from someone that was upgrading. Another vote for SW...
