  1. I think you need to stop listening to whoever told you that. Basically, if you live in the UK then you do nothing right now.
  2. I’d expect nothing less
  3. So you got it in the end then
  4. Agreed, don’t get a 370z
  5. Exactly. An extra 1000rpm makes a billion times more difference than half a parsnip worth of torque you’ll never ever feel. It’s a sports coupe, not a diesel shed!
  6. You won’t, because it’s a completely different tyre in every single way. Well, apart from the word Michelin on the side.
  7. You did, when you started mentioning MPS4 in a thread about the MPS4S!
  8. Just need the wing mirrors doing in black as well and it’ll be a proper VXR lookalike! Great shout bud, looks a good car. Who did the remap? Assuming that’s 225bhp at the wheels?
  9. I think it’s very important to distinguish between the 4 and the 4S, they’re hugely different tyres.
  10. And even more than the extra grip, they have bags of feel so you can really sense what the car is doing, and exploit that more. Good choice sir
  11. That’s me, then. I feel that way for two reasons: 1. Because I respect democracy. I don’t like losing, but I accept when more people think a different way to me. Even if they’re wrong. See: Jeremy Corbyn supporters. 2. Because I’m a stubborn tw*t who now wants those who voted leave to see exactly how messed up things will be because of them. See: Jeremy Corbyn supporters I still think it’s the wrong decision, but I’ll be damned if the court of social media should overrule a legitimate legal process now.
  12. Some Brexiteers just want out on principle, and damned the consequences. Tbh, I can understand that, at least more than those that feel everything will magically be better if we leave. Without wishing to start an argument with you G, it’s the same as those that voted in the IndyRef for going it alone just so the Scots were totally ok their own. As a point of principle, I respect that. Genuinely.
  13. Check the dvla website.
  14. Great post Stu, and I think sometimes it helps members to have the thoughts of the Team explained. So, Brexit then. Anyone else feel we’re almost certainly heading into GE territory, and the hung parliament that will no doubt follow?
  15. Could’ve posted that before I made myself look stupid
  16. Oh tell a lie, I missed when the ECoJ said we could revoke A50 whenever we wanted. My bad, ignore my post above.
  17. That’s surprising if they’re both recaro tbh. But yeah, drill your own and do it that way.
  18. Erm JP is right: Unless the EU agree to an extension, no deal exit will be happening. There’s no time left for anything else.
  19. Well, you could remove the equivalent weight from the front of the car. But no one does. Ever. Take it out and leave it out, if you’re desperate for the space. Just remember the RAC won’t cover you if you get a puncture and don’t have the spare with you though...
  20. Should be obvious when you show the rails to the base of the seat, but yes: The bar should always pull up to you.
  21. What a shame they didn’t mate the Bmw lump up to a manual ‘box, rather than go the generic and obvious swap route.
  22. WAAAAAAAAAANT But I would get them to put the full fat 1000bhp engine in, insta-death
  23. https://www.motor1.com/features/280320/best-selling-vehicles-us-list/ 426,168. That’s the amount of RAV4s sold in the US in the last year, the most popular selling car (I’ll ignore the trucks above it for fairness). You actually think the Model 3 will be able to push those kind of numbers? Theyre currentky making approx 5700 Model 3s per week. That makes annual manufactured cars (not sold) of just under 300,000. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2018-tesla-tracker/ Even assuming that Tesla ramp up production, that’s still a fair bit off.
  24. Hang on, you swapped a V8 for a diesel? Man card in that box over there by the exit, please.
  25. As always, break it down to the minimum facts: There is a legal standard that all fuels have to meet to be classed as Super/Premium/97RON or higher. This is a pretty tough standard to meet, so you can guarantee that the fuel is of a certain quality. Every single 97RON+ fuel on sale in the UK today meets this standard as a minimum, and anything above that you're arguing tiny percentages of betterness. As long as whatever you put in your car meets the RON minimum for your vehicle, there's zero evidence to prove either way that one is better than another. If there was proper evidence, then Shell/BP/Esso would be screaming it from the rooftops. They're not. So there isn't. Just drive your damn cars and enjoy them
