  1. This x billionty. If you want Photoshop, get Photoshop. There's a reason it's the default choice in the field, and whilst other programs can do similar things PS does everything better.
  2. Absolutely, sod that. Never, ever let your insurance lapse on anything unless you don't mind losing it. So yeah, you really need to re-insure the Zed pronto!
  3. http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-one/backward-compatibility/available-games It'll play those ones, and those ones only. The list is being added to on an almost weekly basis though.

    Sadly mate I can well believe it, and good work on covering off the question before it gets asked!

    Do you have any more pics of that lip Chris? Maybe from a different angle?
  6. It's like living in your shed when you've got a perfectly good house to sleep in. Why spend all that money and then not use it for part of the year just because it's a bit cold? I might not use my car as often, but that's purely because I have less stuff planned. I'd never tuck her away in a state that meant I couldn't just grab the keys and go for a morning blat on a cold Sunday morning
  7. There's not a single original line on that car.
  8. Very good point. You'd either need to warm them up first in blankets or by arsing around in the car park, or pick something that's more of an aggressive road tyre rather than a trackday special. That said, given the OEM use I'd expect the MPSC2s to be the best of both worlds, however pricing is going to be an issue here.
  9. It's boring. It's the car every six year old would draw if you gave them a pack of crayons. It shows absolutely zero flair for design at all.
  10. Would the alternative have been any better? No austerity, borrow a shitload more and end up in a worse position than we are now? We're so governed by foreign markets that it's unlikely anything would be massively different anyway, except we'd have a bigger hole in our pockets. Do I think Osborne was too strict in his planning? Yes, I do, which is why I think Hammond taking a much more flexible approach is a good thing and will only benefit the country. I do believe that getting the welfare cost lower is a good thing though, and whilst the odd deserving case will slip through the gap it's still the right way to go. I'd like to see more tax breaks given to large companies who are prepared to set up HQs in the north of the country, try and spread the wealth rather than keep it all in the capital. Corporation tax desperately needs to come down, it's a vile tax that stunts growth massively.
  11. Always tyres first. I agree, a decent diff will help, but you'd still need to be able to put the power down first regardless.
  12. New one isn't fit to wear the name. That interior is unforgivable in a car costing that much. It couldn't look more generic if it tried.
  13. Which feature showed promise? Arguing with the audience and the 'editing'? Killing off celebrities? Driving round the dullest track ever with a stereotypical American driver?
  14. If you're using the mobile site, simply click the round (or star) button at the start of the thread title to go to the newest post, just as you do on the desktop site.
  15. underestimate as in fwd can be seriously quick and fun cars. Anyone can make a car fast in a straight line, and anyone can drive a FWD car round a corner quickly because a little lift will kill the inevitable understeer if you enter too quick. Driving something RWD takes a whole new level of talent and commitment, and that's why it's far more rewarding than FWD could ever be. No-one is saying that FWD can't be fast or fun. What I'm saying is that like for like, RWD is always preferable if you have (or want) the skill to use it properly.
  16. Gotta do something to balance the post-Brexit books.
  17. Underestimate in what sense though?
  18. Don't get me wrong, fast and RWD is clearly the best of both worlds, I was purely saying that I'd rather be in a slow RWD car than a fast FWD one.
  19. Takes too much government involvement to regulate, I guess. Easier to ban it all than have people in London saying it's too cheap and people in Liverpool complaining it's too expensive.
  20. The whiplash thing was a purple pilchard in the first place, companies were never going to reduce premiums because of that. The market seems to be quite content with insurance prices as they are, so might as well leave them that way.
  21. Agreed. My car is just about quick enough, handles like a barge, looks like a jaffa cake, has two barely usable rear seats but you can get a BBQ in the boot. And I still love it
  22. Love the ban on letting agent fees to renters though, like the landlords are just going to suck it up and not increase rents to cover it
