  1. was that ur old one Liam? never seen that..
  2. like beavis said, may make a marginal difference but it cant do any damage so why not. Good job
  3. Very true. People in a position of authority should be setting an example for others. Equally the judge should use this case as an example to all. It will be interesting to see what will happen. Guy +1 He should know better, if thats how he drives a car, how does he pilot plane? It certainly questions his judgment.
  4. Think of it this way. Because he went underneath, the car did not have to absorb anywhere near the impact, so this could have been alot worse in a normal car. Normally the light weight car comes off far worse. At least the guy and his wife are OK.. Does it really matter that the car didnt have to absorb more impact? If he was in say another big car..say a 5 series and had hit the audi he wouldn't have felt too much either, especially at 30mph, maybe abit of whiplash at the most. Him getting out alive is the main thing.
  5. jesus 110 in a "coned" section! Surely no matter what job you do thats seriously dangerous.
  6. No your right Dan, the handling did go abit potty. GT5 is much better and its easier to get the tail out but i'm finding it hard to drift. The lighter cars aren't too bad but the 405bhp Lexus is a right hand full. Once the back end steps out theres pretty much no catching it. I'll be buying GT5 no matter what but i hope the handling improves abit upon releasing it. GT4 took the fun out of the cars.
  7. Looks like you've got no takers Jay, you mite have to reduce your selling price Com'on someone buy me and make Jay rich!
  8. You after abit of late night action Jay
  9. i know what you mean. I could drift the cerbera and FTO LM edition like no tomorrow! haha, i think things have become alittle more realistic though, you actually have to BRAKE for corners now instead of using the barriers like you can in GT2/GT3. I must admit that the enphasis on vehicle dynamics seems to have tailed off the agenda abit and more towards realistic graphics. In the GT5 demo, if you play it enough you do get to know that different cars have different characteristics although not as pronounce as the earlier series but better than GT4. I must admit, I find driving the slower cars in the GT5 demo more fun than the faster ones. GT4 did seem abit of a step back in handling dynamics...
  10. Thats the best photo ive seen of your car! The yellow looks silky and you can see the detailing of the LED rear lights. Why oh why did you buy a Lambo?
  11. I know tell me about it! It feels soo much smoother now, previously it peaked at jst over 150lbs/ft now it pretty much never drops below 150lbs/ft. Picks up soo much better, i dont have to use as much revs now to make progress. Going to sort the suspension out next and get some wheels before i try to get any more power. Still, feels like how Honda should have released it. Paul at TDi North was brilliant. He had me booked in for 2 hours but spent 3 hours on it to make sure it was right before he handed it back to me. Oh and im getting better mpg too
  12. This is the moment that I start to seriously begin looking for a garage and ignore their prices. I did 60 miles on the --------- in my zed What did you do...push it!
  13. Id tell her to get the civic too, much easier to live with on a daily basis as its much softer. I know what you mean about the image but i never buy a car on that, it would be a boring world if we all bought the same car. I usually buy a car on what it can do and the grin factor it gives you. The teg is great fun to drive. Theres not that many round here at all. I see quite a few zeds on my daily trip and there getting more and more common recently, although not as bad as the TT. I finally saw another DC5 yesterday there doesnt seem to be that many round here. Thats only 2 since the begining of september. Anyway just had a rolling road tune to make sure everything was running right and made 241bhp and 172lb/ft torque. Not bad on a car that weighs 1170kgs! well chuffed with my results. Car seems soo much smoother.

    *SOLD*

    i wouldnt say the 350z is a hairdressers car
  15. Looks stunning mate!! Kepp your chin up, it'll sell soon enough
  16. Saw you and very nearly waved
  17. Yes he does! In fact its called the JAY LENO TANK. Its on GT4 i think too if youve not seen it.
  18. No probs mate, i was hoping u'd see this post. Although theres not as many cars, the game seems abit better than the previous demo. in car view is top, had no problems making a japanese id either.
  19. lol, well i found the McClatren f1 bit interesting anyway, gave me goose bumps listening to him floor it.!
  20. I have it, not played it for 2 months though..... Ditto. Got PGR4 on the go atm, but not touched that for a couple of weeks. Need to get a games room, XB360 doesnt see much action being in the living room Mine neither, 360 wii and my PS3 were all in the living room and had no chance of getting the nod over shitty soaps Didn't that problem solve itself recently? It didn't resolve itself. I resolved it. Halo 3 is now showing. All the time
  21. Im Zedless. I got a FWD car With the diff i do get some lift off oversteer so no problems.
  22. Skyline looks great. Not so keen on the graphics but each to their own and i can appreciate why you did it. I prefer it alot more naked though, looks much more understated and puposefull. lovely jubbly
  23. wet days for me jst means understeer = not good!
  24. Im definately going to do it, its just a case of when. Ive got abit on this month so i'll only be able to book/pay come december. And by then it may be too wet, i'll see when the time comes, as they have 1 or 2 events in dec. Ive heard nothing but good things about Motorsport events so i have no reservations about using them. I'll most definately get tuition when im there too. If all goes to plan i'd like to do something of this order -- Airfield, Top gear track, race track event -CC, donny or Brands. then the Nurburg along with my mates MG if i can fit it in.
