Sod anyone else's feelings, if they don't have insurance they don't get to drive it. Also, if they drive it and you don't ask for their insurance and they turn out not to be insured, that's 6 pts for you on your licence right there so another reason to ask and check.

Cutting compound + elbow grease should shift it. Try Meguiars Ultimate Compound.

Bad driving is the cause of most accidents though, however it's not the people that are weaving in out and out traffic that are the biggest problem IMHO, it's (as Beavis says) the numpties who don't use their mirrors or indicate that are the real issue. If people were in the correct lanes then you simply wouldn't be able to undertake or weave, but that's far too difficult to police apparently. And no, I don't weave myself no condone it, but done safely with full use your mirrors and awareness of the vehicles around you it's not inherently dangerous.

It's just an extension of s.59, which in itself is the biggest crock of sh*t to come to motoring law in the last 50 years. Police should not be judge, jury and executioner, that's what we have the courts for!

Result Just realised that it wasn't with an AMMD though, which explains the prices.

And did you pay £552.77 in the end?

Even an auto? I suspect it's just a precaution against leaving the car in gear without realising, nothing more sinister than that.

The Alpine stuff definitely will, and it's a piece of cake to hook up the steering wheel controls too (if you have them).

It's why I chose a 911 over a GTR, as well as 2WD over 4WD

Good lord, me and Dblock agree on something!!!11 Spot-on fella. There's quicker cars out there than the Zed at that price level (Impreza would be the obvious choice ignoring anything German), but we all chose the Zed because it's a better driver's car and gives so much more feedback and pleasure from the drive than ultimate pace.

I honestly don't know, although I'd be amazed if it did and I'm sure I've seen numerous posts on here referring to it not working post-conversion.

I've tried other programs, but Photoshop really is worth every penny. CS5 is a massive jump over CS4 and I wouldn't be without it

£100 is peanuts relatively speaking, and it's certainly cheaper than buying a new head unit when you get naffed off with the first one you buy because it doesn't sound as good or feels clunky in operation

First one for me. Alpine's iPod integration and having their own DSP in the units is so far ahead of the competition right now, I wouldn't touch anything else. Pioneer looks prettier, but having a big volume knob is still the most user-friendly way of operating things.

Do you not need rear suspension then Waseem?

Given how many they're selling, why would they change? Never hurt the TT either.

You're thinking of the 997 Turbo S. This is a Cayman S.

Does that price include all parts they need for the 5th year service though? I ask as Porsche are a bit sneaky with their pricing, as a 2nd service (4th year) in only £500 but doesn't include the spark plugs which must also be changed to keep the warranty going, which is another £300 on top, along with the brake fluid change which is also necessary and not included... The list goes on, and that's why premium cars are not always the bargain they first look when you look at servicing costs. Doesn't bother me as I've budgeted for it, but I bet it catches a lot of people unaware.

Apart from not hit the kerb in the first place, perhaps?

Normal UK sized plate affixed with sticky pads (the proper numberplate ones that would hold the world together in case of the crust breaking up kinda ones), and underneath the upper half of the bumper as you suggest. For the rear it's sticky pads again.

I'll have a tenner now that we never, ever see a single jet-powered Jag on the roads in my lifetime.

1.6L 4-pot + 4 electric motors = Veyron beater? I don't think so, Jaguar. Chesterfield's got this one spot-on, this is another XJ220 all over again. If you're paying £900K for a hypercar you don't care about the road tax, you expect the ultimate. Regardless of what the bods at F1 want us to think, a 4-banger isn't the ultimate.

Gearboxes, gearboxes, gearboxes. Weakest link and huge expense if they fall to pieces. Other than that they're great little cars in whatever guise.

Personally I think the US are missing a trick here: People want proof of Osama dead, and are demanding to see the evidence. The US also need a lot of money for their economy. You can probably see where I'm going with this... Put the pics and 40-min video of the assault on the compound up on the interweb or on PPV TV, and charge people to view them! The demand's there, they'd make an absolute killing on it thus quietening the dissenters and filling the coffers all in one go.

It's a BMW, not a Lamborghini! Focus it is then. Nothing else in that sector to touch it really.
