Nothing will change? Seriously? I think that the fundamental issue with the leave campaign that idea is true. Why would the EU, that funds and maintains all these laws continue to implement and support a country that no longer buys into the 'club. Its not a case of repealing, they simply cannot be continued to be implemented. Whats the plan on this? Again you are saying 'you hope leaders have a plan' but its all 'i hope' 'I should think' etc, there is nothing factual about it and nothing I can honestly stick my hand up for and vote for. If I came to you and said give me five grand, dont stick it in the bank and earn interest. I will make you back more, not sure how, or when, or with who. But you will be better off than those untrustworthy banks, would you give me the money?

It was said generally tongue in cheek, but you miss the points. Firstly that the assumption that the EU 'interferes' and creates laws that we do not need or want (i.e. all this talk of taking back control and the EU having a say in our affairs) and secondly that the actual genuine fact is that this law exists and benefits consumers, what is fiction is that the UK will be able to easily implement a replacement equivalent law should we leave (as per your language 'Im pretty sure' and 'create similar' this is guesswork at best). And really, my point around the whole thing is that there are going to be hundreds, if not thousands of laws we are going to have to rehash, if you look at how long it takes to get a single law through parliament this is a quite scary thought - I generally do not think that the government will give us the consumer rights that the EU give. They could quite easily just say you know what, this isn't important, we got other things to sort out, leave the consumers to take it up individually with the airline themselves (under which they have no clear rights for a claim). All I keep hearing from the Leave campaign is 'oh it will get sorted' or 'it will be negotiated' but I havent even heard from the Leave campaign who is doing all this? Which government department? When? With who? Where do these people come from? How many experienced unilateral trade negotiators does the government have on its books? Whats the time frame? There are no answers because no one in the Leave campaign has any idea of what they are doing if we do leave using the excuse around uncertainty as a reason not to present a plan. If this were a business plan presented to an investor they would run a mile laughing their backsides off.

RTP charged me £220 I think it was to respray my front bumper and remove the burger/flatten the recess

Milltek is a high quality exhaust, around £900 brand new I think. Couple it will sports cats (which will also pass MoT) and it really comes alive when you put your foot in a bit, it will turn heads, but nice and discreet when cruising. The dual mass flywheel is VERY heavy, I got a new one for my Zed many years back and it weighed an absolute tonne, delivery guy was bamboozled by how such a relatively small package could be so heavy. You will lose plenty of power with it, and gain a fair bit back with single mass (although they do rattle when installed).

Either remove and repaint/fill the area left flat or simply spray the badges a colour you want. There are some other more bespoke Z badges out there, but respraying the standard ones gives a good effect.

Well after arriving at Palma airport for our flight back yesterday and still being there 6 hours later thanks to delayed EasyJet flights, everyone when getting off when we finally arrived in Gatwick were saying how they were going to claim online for compensation...I wonder how many of them realised that they will be claiming under one of 'those' EU directives put in place by the EU to ensure customer fairness across all airline travel...article number 261 in this case. I wonder how many of those people claiming are voting out. So many EU directives are good and are there to support everyday people, when we are out, things such as consumer protection, safety etc will need to be reworked by the government. It really does boggle the mind how much legislation we will have to recreate, its going to take years and years.

I never even thought to think that haha. I wonder if the previous owner changed them, he was meticulous with the detail and spent a fortune on this car... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's quite scary, if the whole thing were to crumble. That being the case though, I dont think we'll be leaving, there'll be a higher power that guarantees we'll stay in for sure. There was some figures on here pages back that showed the Italians quoting the above in a survey, reason why the breakfast show doesn't quote the rest of the research was that pretty much every other country in the study didn't want a referendum and most would vote stay if they had one...

Bit bizarre in red square having the Kremlin one side and Starbucks the other! There is a big street racing thing in Moscow (was on a work visit and company owner took me out in her modified Infinity!) vodka with beer is normal and vodka is great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good work fella very jealous! Passenger ride some point soon? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Get yourself in a good condition ST205 Celica mate! We already have Americans signing up to forums and Facebook pages in anticipation of getting one once they are legal there...price will go whoooosh 😉 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You won't get a decent rust free manual TT for under £5k-£6k. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Seems a bit suss, they havent got any reviews and they seem to have them for many other cars, only £75 for a Ferrari! Possibly knock offs?

Not really, banks aren't our parents at all, I said some people behaved like children when they should have been behaving adult to adult. Banks are not, and never should be, our parents. To put the blame 100% at the door of banking for the recession just feels wrong, when the root cause was toxic debt, thats people borrowing beyond their means, lots of people didn't do this even when it was on offer, but enough did. At what point do people become responsible for themselves? At the end of the day, advice is exactly that, advice. Its up to you, as an adult, to take it or not and bear the responsibility of it.

I still remember reading a news report in 2007 entitled "sub-prime mortgages in the US and why we should be worried" no one took a bit of notice. Yes they should have responsibly advised but borrowers cannot possibly pass all the blame, that's like saying I'm a child and any mistake I make is your fault. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Another little mod which makes the interior feel a little more up to date...chrome rings in the dash. Its the little things that make the difference I say

Ha Bradders! Go for the best you can get, some recordings of these cars going 200k miles plus but who knows how they have been driven. Every car will be different, servicing and condition hugely important. In the fickle UK market if you want something to hold a bit of value and sell quickly some time down the line if you decide to sell lower mileage really makes a difference, most people looking for cars online will put a mileage filter on their search requirements.

Your very worst nightmare...

What does 'banks' mean, who are you referring to? Banking has multiple forms, its probably more complex than I can get to grips with. In its simplest form, wasnt the recession caused by over lending to people being greedy and demanding more than they could afford...in simple terms, plenty of the public were responsible for becoming bad debtors.

You could invest in a mid 90s jap car and have a bit of change, however be prepared to sacrifice on interior luxuries, they tend to be a bit sparse inside. In my opinion, only swap if you want to experience different cars and driving styles, I never regretted selling my zed and trying out the cars I have

Just make sure you ramp up the muppet filter on that forum, it will catch a lot of em. There are some diamonds on there though mate who are uber helpful, just seek em out! Good luck with the car hunt!

You can't resist the supercilious lines can you? Could you be civil please? Growth is all on paper. The way I see it is we had a chance to crash the false economy or punt it down the road and stick it on a card. We postponed the pain for greater pain later. No superiority complex here, all very civil. Take it how you want to.

Exactly. It's the blatant lies both sides are flinging about that is so depressing. But a politician who admits he doesn't know everything would be destroyed. I can't be sure about what will happen or if I'm getting played by someone. It seems at times that the old classic reverse psychology is being used. All the big banks, the City, want to stay in, they claim. That's enough to make me want to vote out. But maybe they actually really want Out because Yurp wants to bring in a transaction tax... Who the hell really knows? A lot of people peddle financial doom but haven't we just had a huge crash with Europe at the helm? And instead of protecting the people they bailed out the financiers? They let the thieves keep their cash and handed the bill to law-abiding people of the southern states and their descendants? And let countries with better credit ratings do some insidious usury by borrowing cheap, lending to the PIGS and calling it a bail-out? Nice club. It was a global crash that actually started in the US...the EU never created the recession. In terms of the banks, they are what essentially drives the majority of growth and the economy in the UK, we could have let them just fall to pieces, and then watched our ranking in the top 5 or 6 economies of the world slide out in the 20s or 30s...but hey people do not stop to really try and understand that.

...and like I said, we were not the largest trading country in the world as mentioned by Jewell. We were slipping at this point (actually read some of the links on wiki it will take you through this) and if we didn't join we would have been in serious trouble. Our trade prowess goes all the way back hundreds of years to the fact we were the king of the seas, moving trade globally utilising our expert seamanship. Its a bit more than that now, we had to move with the times in the 1970s and most experts agree that move back then ensured our position (although appreciate this is subjective) by being aligned with the bigger movers in the world economy.

Apart from two major points: If the EU are so @*!# at getting trade agreements, how is an isolated UK going to fare? Isolated from who? We're voting to leave the EU, not move to Ganymede. ...and whats wrong with Ganymede!
