  1. Interesting, I wonder if they're going to set this in a European city then? Clearly not Glasgow as otherwise they'd be sending the stars over too and doing proper filming, but maybe somewhere on the continent perhaps? Can't see why they'd shoot there instead of the US otherwise.
  2. Katarina Johnson-Thompson
  3. You're watching that over the two golds in the cycling, the Ennis and the Johnson-Thompson??!! Madness. Glad he's winning though, it's only in team events I actually want him to win!
  4. CEL won't automatically cause limp mode, but the cause of the light could. You really need to find out what that code is ASAP.
  5. Work on the basis you will fall into IR35. Do you still want to go for it? If you go for it and don't end up with IR35 then it's a lovely bonus. If you do, never mind because you budgeted for it.
  6. Put the price in the title, or right at the top of the text in big letters. People will be bored and put off if they need to scroll right to the very bottom just to find the price

    tyre issue

    It's just an alignment issue. Not something that would worry me as it can easily be corrected, but in terms of tyre wear and how the car is going to feel to drive, it's not great.

    new Nissan Z car

    That would be my take on it too. Assuming the BRZ86 takes off, they'll produce an S-car and ditch the Z-cars for now. No point trying to sell a car no-one wants to buy.

    new Nissan Z car

    That's my point though, it won't be enough. As has said, it either needs to be an S-car or go significantly up market to justify the cost.
  10. Clicky 'cos it breaks the forum for size On the right: Not great photos, I will admit. She's stunning though, you should've watched her on the tellybocks whilst you had the chance

    new Nissan Z car

    All too expensive.
  12. Vanessa Ferrari. I think she's lovely

    new Nissan Z car

    Autoexpress are useless. It'll probably weigh 600kg and have a W12 now. It needs to either be cheaper or more upmarket, or the global economy needs to get much better. Just dropping cylinders and the CO2 output won't make a Z car sell. The 350Z was bang on the money when it came out, and even though the 370Z is better in every measurable way it's just not what people want now. Nissan will be watching the BRZ86 (and seeing if the new MX-5 goes FWD to a lesser extent) very closely to see whether it's even worth the bother making a new Z car.
  14. It'll be fine. I used it on the Zed as a pre-cleaner by hand and had no issues at all.
  15. I think it was a computer

    Eibach ARB's

    ^^^Yeah, that. If you want an understeery car then Steve's settings are ideal, but you don't know what his other suspension settings are like: If they're super aggressive, then it might not be as bad as it looks.

    Eibach ARB's

    I ran them stiffest rear and softest front as I wanted the car to become more lively, but I adjusted my geo setup to take that into account: If I'd gone for those settings out of the box I think I'd have ended up ditchward!
  18. That's pretty exceptional service, told you they were good Can't believe you haven't set it up yet!
  19. What a complete pillock. Might as well have been carrying a toy gun and done it properly. Dressing like a ninja I get, and is very cool, but carrying a big fake sword is just asking for trouble now the law has changed.
  20. S4 won't oversteer. Ever. It's an Audi, that's what they do. Exaggeration, of course, but held in truth. As per the factory setup, an Audi will understeer significantly and you'd need to engineer that out with some aggressive geo settings. Don't get too hung up on LSDs, they're not that important if the car was designed not to have one.
  21. E60 M5. SMGII box is fine pootling, leave it in the slowest setting and it's as smooth as an auto. Crank the speed up and put it into manual and it's manic. I wouldn't even consider anything else at that price and that type of car, the V10 is a work of art.
