  1. Got Vista Home Premium on my laptop. Bit strange at first but use it for a while and im sure you will be impressed. Does need a lot of ram but if you have a recently purchased USB memory stick you can use it as extra ram, not sure if this is Vista Home though. I reckon you will like it.
  2. Any one remember Hula Hoops Big-Os? The Roast beef and mustard ones were immense. Just a shame they stopped selling them
  3. This is probably just as (if not more ) effective than that. Air filter, and lets face it, a max power air filter is going to be pants. I wouldnt put one of those anywhere near my car. If they were any good we would all have them!

    It does indeed have an audi V8. 4.2 litre. Theres a newer version being developed (proto at Geneva). It has the same engine but tuned to deliver 800bhp which is good for 0-60 in 3 secs. have a look here Apollo.
  5. I downloaded dvdfab of the internet, get a free trial but its not too expensive to buy. Sure you can unlock it some other way . It lets you create menus, chapters etc. Seems to convert the files quicker than nero aswell. Just search on google for it.
  6. For all those people that said the crash wasn't 'dramatic', what did you expect? I admit it doesnt look that dramatic, but you look how quickly the car comes to a stop once the roll hoop digs into the ground. While this is good as the vehicle comes to a halt quickly, richards, (and anyone else involved in a crash with high decelleration), exterior would have come to a halt with the rest of the car but his internal organs wouldnt have which can cause alsorts of damage. He was extremely lucky to survive and come out without permanent damage.

    Quick Review

    Got a logitech keyboard and mouse. Its been brilliant. Mouse batteries (rechargable) last a while and i havent changed the keyboard batteries since it was brought (12 months or so). If its decent then you should have no problems and be pleased with it.

    New Car Time

    I expect the 306 on auto trader will have done mega miles! I had a 306 until january this year. Was a good car during the few years i had it. No real mechanical problems just a few common electrical problems. Only major problem was a broken front wishbone but that was my fault :$ , damn kerbs. My 306 was a diesel turbo sport. Same engine as the one on auto trader, good fun to drive and good mpg. Mine didnt have split rear seats though, have to fold the whole seat back down. Can get a few bikes in them though.
  9. Get it after a night on the lash. Bloody horrible.
  10. Its the mini motos that are tempting me to part with hard earned cash right now! Would do a nice job of replacing the single piston hayes brakes on my freeride bike.
  11. Dont know of anyone that will custom build a laptop. Give ebuyer a try for a non custom build though. Should be able to get a decent spec laptop for less than £700. Probably won't have 1gb of ram but you can use the money you save from the £700 to get it up to 1gb. Ram is easily upgraded on a laptop. EBuyer
  12. Some in stock now on crc.
  13. Wally is correct. The numberplate 'YEVIL' was on a orange Murcielago, now its on a newer Murcielago LP640. The older lambo had been on many shows, in magazines, it was at Autosport International in 2005 and I remember seeing it at a silverstone race meeting. Would be a bitch to try and out run it though if it was a genuine police car, nothing much faster than an LP640 on the roads!
  14. You can't really compare a trials frame to a full supension dh or xc frame. I used to ride trials but have now moved to xc and freeride. The frame i have now is far more complex than any trials frame. Hydroformed tubing, linkages, bearings, support beams, rear shock etc. Trials is expensive because of relaitvely low interest in the sport (comapre it to a sport like tennis/football etc). All 'specialised' biking is the same. High specification bikes cost more to produce, this makes the initial sale price high, there aren't many people that are willing to pay hundreds of pounds for a bike. Therefore the prices remain high. Simple. Its the same for components aswell.
  15. Just watched it and disagree. Took far too long for things to get going. Bit dissapointing. The girls are rather tasty though .
  16. Right, i work at one of the largest/busiest argos stores, we had none in stock for the release. NO argos stores will be getting them in. However, you can order one for delivery. The warehouse is 'apparently' getting deliveries every week. You can order one but theres no guarantee you will get one anytime soon.
  17. Check the manual. Pretty certain (as someone said) majority of phones are .3GP only.
  18. Brylcreem wax stick. Easy to apply (just rub the stick on your head), holds well, can re-style during day. Costs about £4 a stick but lasts a good few months. Smells nice aswell, well the gf thinks so.
  19. Buy an iso disc! Dont bother with a classic as they seem to be getting difficult to sell on. With disc brakes becoming the norm on most other bike 'styles' an iso should hold its value better.
  20. Isn't that £75 for a box of 50 of the sheet things? Working out to £1.50 each.
  21. Got a 306 diesel-turbo-sport. Been a really good car so far, reliable etc. Got nearly 90k on the clock and still going strong. Payed £2175 for it about 18months ago. They do indeed take corners very well. Alan
  22. I am pretty sure with a speed gun thing you have to be pulled there and then. Radar gun only calculates your speed, doesnt record number plate etc. I think the usual drill is one police man with gun up road, one policeman in car/on motorbike waiting to pull you further down the road.

    Washing?

    Pants every two days as i turn them inside out. (joke!!). Anything apart from jeans, jumpers usually gets washed after 1 day. Jeans depend on where i've been in them (pub, out on the lash, on't nike etc).
  24. There will be air in the lever reservior though. Unless you can get the top cap and diaphragm on the lever without letting any air in (Y) .
  25. Air will be pumped into the system when you pull the lever. There is air sitting at the top of the reservior so can't be used upside down. Alan
