  1. Lol yer I guess I'm asking a bit much hoping for a fun drive with these type of cars. Gonna test an i10 tomorrow. See what happens around a round about. Pretend I'm in the zed lol.
  2. Did think about an ibiza and types like that but it's really just a to b and cheapness I need. Still looking on the net for now. Tried looking for some driving reviews on the kind of cars I've looked at already. Just wondered if anyone else had one of those city car types and if any of em had any enjoyment in the drive. Will try some test drives tomorrow.
  3. I hadn't considered those as an option. Didn't think they were so cheap on tax. I'd expected not to get anything with any sort of poke for what I'm looking for but that isn't to bad a car. My only worry is that while a diesel has good mpg the cost of diesel is more so would I really be getting a better deal than finding a petrol engine with comparable mpg.
  4. Lol. Thanks. Never heard of that site before I've looked at the chevy sparks, hyundai i10, vw up, seat mi all those type of cars. A lot more than a grand for a fiesta but then the idea is they would last longer and be cheaper to run.
  5. Afternoon. Basically my fiesta r reg is dead. I use that daily and the zed on the weekends. Been looking around for a cheap run around replacement. Now I can get another fiesta W reg probably for about a grand. But the tax and mpg ain't that great. Also been considering spending more and getting a newer city car type vehicle. Just wondered if anyone has these type of cars, what they're like or any other recommendations for a car that's got a high mpg and low tax. Cheers.
  6. I wish it had been! Seen the posts with that car and would love to see it in the flesh. Nah it had the nismo side skirts and wing and spats for sure.
  7. Only saw the rear end so don't know about the front. Was driving out of Asda at the time. Looked really nice though. Wondered if it was someone on here.
  8. Just saw a stunning 05 bronze zed with a nismo kit. Looked like a really clean example. Parked up outside Asda newport, down Duffryn.
  9. Good luck. That's a massive test. Passing that should mean a lot more work for you
  10. Your total right mate. I'd wondered the same. But after it was applied it didn't fix it. After I took it off plus the other steps it was better. Only other thing I can try to narrow down the fix is pit it back on and see if it happens again. It did all start prior to today's update though. Wierd.
  11. I see a few around newport and Cwmbran. Another azure a black and two silvers so far. Plus there's definitely another one just over the bridge near redwick on the English side.
  12. I'm not sure. When online came out I got one upgrade then that one tonight but could only see one update on my xbox. Don't know whether it combined them all. Either way uninstalled the only update file and did the other things and it's working. Lots of reports online I've noticed with the same problem.
  13. Sorted my storyline mode woes. After messing around lots managed to get the missions running again. Don't know what did it but tried auto saving to a new slot. Deleted the latest update, loading an old game then switching back to the newest save and now working ok. Miracle.

    Autumnal run out

    Lovely looking car. That hairpin is just asking for some fun So you find the Falkens have less grip than the re050's? I can def recommend the mpss's. Found them a lot more grippy.
  15. Your old 350 looked stunning. Nismo is a nice looking car too though. Welcome back.
  16. What a total pain in the ass. Can't be bothered with it tonight. Will sort it or just start from an earlier point this weekend.
  17. I'll have to have a look at that. At the mo have to contact rockstar on their forum since my game has stuck. Stuck as Trevor after doing the minor turbulence Misson. Can't swap characters and don't own the airfield anymore! Tried side missions but now nothing left to do but only 51 percent through the game. And all this happened after I tried to go online and it timed out and put me back into the normal game. Got save points but only from 29 percent.
  18. If u want piece of mind take it to an mot station yourself. The garage I get my fiesta done at have to take it to an mot station since they can't do it themselves. All I did was take the zed directly to the same station. Up to you obviously. Did laugh when I went to mention the brakes and the guy showed me the alert he got about not putting it on the rollers for the brake test. He didn't bother taking it for the test drive either to be fair lol Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
  19. Wow loads of online problems! Not surprising at all considering the numbers although should of got more servers online sooner really. Still can't wait to get online though and at least the offline game is still cracking fun. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
  20. It's only for those out of work longer than 2 years. I thought it was gonna be a much shorter time than that so happy they are talking really long term unemployed. However that's only 200 000 people. That's not many people. Also if your gonna force people to then do some sort of work you Have to top up their Jsa to min wage for what they do. Otherwise it is cheap labour and leads to a stupid situation where they are then under cutting the normally paid work force. Also, and I'll need to find the article on it, but read somewhere that when they tall about the benefits bill the actual Jsa is only a smallish percentage of the overall bill. A lot of 'benefits' are paid to those in work like tax credits I think and stuff like that. Do wish they'd stop tarring all people on benefits the same though. It really is only a small percentage that are working the system. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
  21. Welcome to the club. I did the same as you and got a 55 plate just prior to the tax hike. You should be able to get a really nice example for the money your looking to spend and with some spare cash from 10k. My understanding of the post 06 ones is an uprated interior and the increase in bhp. Others with more experience will be able to give you a better idea. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4

    bird mess

    Could try a wet rag and leave it on it to let it soak through. I've used paper towel and quick detailer. Left it a while then just carefully peeled it off pretty much. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
