Anyone got this yet? It's absolutely superb! This is the new benchmark for mobile gaming IMHO, it looks stunning on my iPad and the gameplay and depth are fantastic. Go buy, seriously.

Anything with Acer on. Pick one that fits the budget and he won't be disappointed, they're very well made laptops and I'm now on my 8th or 9th (that includes personal and work over a number of years, I've yet to break one).

FTW or For The Win is internet slang in the same vein as ROFL or WTF. For The Win generally describes something good, although it can be used sarcastically as well. "I've put some spacers on my Zed and now the stance is awesome!" "I've got them too, spacers FTW!"

So then it clearly is about the money, along with choice. Not a problem, I'd have loved a more individual plate than I've got but of course money is an issue. Not really sure why it was claimed otherwise tbh. I always said that as long as you're happy that's all that matters. Anyways, I'll leave now seeing as how clearly some people are taking offence over a non-issue here. Loves and kisses to all!

Hi Iain's wife here, I just read this and feel singled out. N15 NMO was my idea and being a woman - I'M ALWAYS RIGHT!! and the number plate was a great idea in my opinion. I am pleased with it and what anyone else thinks is their opinion. Its a private plate, its a matter of choice not money. Mock all you like. Sarah So you'd have chosen it even if N1 SMO was available? Of course you wouldn't. It's mispelt and looks daft if you've ever heard of Nismo, and just a mess if you haven't. Like you say though, it's your money and you're free to spend it how you wish of course.

What's a Teon?

That's a good one

I kinda get the point of plates that use initials, but it's the ones that try and spell things that they clearly don't that irritate the living snot out of me. M33 EDJ I can just about live with, but N15 NMO? If you can't afford to do it properly, then don't do it at all and don't mis-space(or mis-washer) the bloody things either! That just looks utterly horrid to me. Not trying to offend anyone, it's just a pet hate 'tis all. As long as you like it, then that's all that matters. I shall still mock you for it though

There is no point, and anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar. And yes, I've got one!

Every other driver on the road is a complete idiot and shouldn't be allowed. I'm the only one who actually knows what they're doing behind the wheel. That's what my Mum said to me before I started driving, and it's an absolute truth I drive to today. Assume everyone else is a muppet and that they're about to do something daft, and you won't go far wrong.

They're affordable to buy, just not to run: You'd get very friendly with the local Aston parts dealer Despite what AM may tell you, they still have a big quality control issue and this is part of the reason I only briefly looked at them before buying the 911. They're beautiful to look out, make an incredible noise, but they're not actually that good to drive and not particularly quick. I wanted a car that I'd be able to rely on 24/7 for the most part and there's no way an Aston fits into that sector. If space and money were no issue then I'd have an Aston in a heartbeat (although it would be a DBS as it suits the lines better than a Vantage), but as a single fun car I just couldn't justify it.

try the search button Yeah, this. We really don't need yet-another thread on this subject, it makes it harder for the next person to search for it.

At least it's legally spaced, so fair dues for that. Got anything that's actually Nismo on the car though?

I know, that's what I was referring to All his stereotypes were correct to an extent, and it would appear that he used the fat girls comment to pair up with the fat boys comment for the BMW for comedy effect. Anyway, who cares? Drive the car you want, not what other people want. I've always picked ugly cars compared to their equivalent competitors (MR2 mk3 vs MX-5 mk2, VXR220 vs S2 Elise, 350Z ragtop vs TT ragtop) but it's never stopped me enjoying them to the full.

Why? He's making a point about stereotypes and how they're a load of crap for the most part, and he's pretty much bang-on with his examples. I always used to call my Zed a Datsun, it was a term of endearment the same way shed is.

Man, you've got a lot to learn about the internet!

You know where I stand on this Rich, and whilst the Golf would be horrid I think you'd love either the M3 or the 996 4S.

I call BS right now. Never going to happen, insurance company would be slaughtered by the ombudsman. Either there's more to it than that (ie other undisclosed mods) or it simply didn't happen.

Bag of nails Give me a Yank V8 any day over that.

No. Just... no. Pikey tyres of the highest order.

You'll feel worse when you stuff your car into a ditch Do them all in Falkens or get Bridgestone rears. Winter is the worst timeto be mixing tyres.

USA, East coast to West coast. Hire Mustang or Corvette, stay in cheap hotels apart from at the start and finsh where you go 5-star. No plans, no routes, just go wherever the road takes you

If by aero you mean the single-blade affairs then yes, they'll be fine on the rear too. Saying that, I've never found a set that work anywhere near as good as a decent set of normal ones, and the PIAA ones I've been using for the last 5 years seem to be just about the best out there. They may not look as good (subjective, of course) but given that I want my wipers to remove as much water from my windscreen rather than look pretty, I think I'll stick with them

Blimey, all that way and you want to rent a Zed?! Go and get something more exciting, like a Holden with a big V8!
