  1. I will Watch Aliens and Weird Science tonight. I'm actually quite bummed about it. No one who I particularly liked in TV/films has died apart from the guy who played General Hammond in Stargate SG1 (Don S Davis)
  2. Me too. I considered a Ferrari, But was too lazy to get to a showroom etc. Also too lazy/dumb at school. Sooooooo I drive an old Focus
  3. It's game over man, game over!! Aliens.
  4. Wait. The universe suddenly turned against me... I got dumped and turfed out, my cat died and all my friends got married had kids and moved away and now I spend eeeeeevery single day on my own shell-shocked at how things change in a year! So yeah, why would I be able to get insured to enjoy the ONE good thing left in my life lol.
  5. I just found out Bill Paxton died. I'm quite gutted. He was in some of my favourite films and always had a presence. He was only 61 and had started filming Training Day series. Died of surgery complications. Was always a running joke of fans that one day his character would actually survive for the entirety of a film. Being a big Aliens fan, his role of Hudson was my favourite. Then as Chet in Weird Science. R.I.P
  6. Me? I've owned my Z 4 years with no previous problem getting insurance. Standard was 400 ish and turbo was just under 1k. Now......no one will touch me.
  7. Yeah cos you buy a new ferrari every 6 months
  8. Let me know what you find. 35. Max no claims. No speeding convictions ever. No points ever. Can't get insured with Flux or Sky
  9. Just over the hill from me. Bacup.
  10. Odd how some of us get cheap insurance with them and others, myself included, can't even get a quote from them.
  11. Dan, you wouldn't quote me on my 350Z either.
  12. I have to say, I was braced for someone from the forum having died when I read the title. Frustrating for you mate. I know.
  13. Just make noises like when you were a kid. Brrrrrrooommmm.... neooowwww...scrrrrreeech!
  14. Installing de cat pipes made a huge difference to mine.
  15. Right. F*"k it. I'll paint the thing myself! Lol.
  16. What really annoys Dan is being called Daniel Lol.
  17. True, but valet mode won't stop an accident occuring if someone decides to drive your car like a fud. If they total it they can make up any cockamamie story they like and you'll get the market value of your car. Sorry chum, @*!# happens. Well if the car is set to stay bellow 20mph then that should eliminate the 'joy' in a joyride and render it pointless since they can't drive at a speed which would wipe it out.
  18. My friend that I grew up with used to work for Carcraft which is a large network dealer in the north west. I used to listen to his stories about customer cars or cars that had gone there for work to be done. I asked if he could do some maintenance on my Clio there and he told me not to bother as he and the other technicians used to really thrash customer care and generally abuse them. There's a stretch of road near the Rochdale branch, A627M. It takes you from Rochdale straight to oldham with a roundabout at either end. The techs called it their racetrack. Get on at Stakehill roundabout, towards Rochdale, then round the roundabout (sideways) heading towards Royton and Oldham. Get it maxed out if you can, then get it sideways round roundabout B then back up towards Rochdale but come off at the Stakehill slip road and into Castleton. I remember how enthused he was when he got to road test a V10 M5 and various other performance cars. He also said Carcrafts 100 point inspection was BS. There were 100 checks but he said 60% of it was things like "does the car have all 4 wheels?" "Does the car have lights?"
  19. What does the odometer say? How many miles have been covered in its time with them? I'm glad I'm getting Syvecs with Valet mode. Peace of mind after dropping it off at a body shop when it goes for a respray.
  20. I must be really sh1te then because in 9 months my ex hasn't contacted me once lol.
