  1. I'll upload some pictures later today when its been fully built
  2. Cross topic from OTN http://www.observedtrials.net/vb/showthread.php?t=18600
  3. I put my disk through our industrial glass washer / Steriliser at work which seems to have done the trick perfectly
  4. Possibly the new triton mod frame...? I'll tell you in a few days when its all built up and ready to go!
  5. Isnt there already a thread with all the manufacturers websites and stuff in FAQ?
  6. I just invested in a freeview box, with an internal HDD like Tivo or Sky+. Its excellent as it has 2 recievers, so you can watch one channel, while recording another, Pause/rewind live TV and set it up to record series of programs ect. It has up to 10 hours recording time which is plenty for me, and was a reasonable price from ebay. Worth a look I reckon
  7. Theres been several topics on this lately, with some really good reccomendations. Have a quick gander through the search and that should pull up a few. Have a look through Amazon, Currys/Comet/Dixons and places like that and see what suits what you want as you may not "need" to spend that much, which will give you a bit extra for some additional lenses ect. As for reasonable priced edit suites, CyberLink Power Director is quite good, but havent really had any experience with any others. I just splashed out a bit more and Got Premier 6.5
  8. ok thats a good place too. Im a minifinity man myself but
  9. Best bet is to buy a copy of Mini World and Mini Magazine, and look through the classifieds. This will give you a good guide as to the price lines of certain condition cars. Might also bring up a few in your area too. Have a chat to people on www.minifinity.com as they will tell you what to look out for
  10. Good old "quoted" 50 Mpg on the mini (yeah right), £20 will last me a week if I'm lucky!!
  11. From the sounds of things, the driver was taking precautions. He was doing 10 mph under the speed limit, possibly because of the conditions. He may have slowed down to 50 upon sighting the cyclists. But anyway, he could have been doing 30 mph, and hit ice, the end result of a spin is still going to be the same. Its easy to sit there and say he must have been driving recklessly, but not everyone is Colin McCrae and can handle a car in that kind of situation. Thoughts go out to everyone involved and their families/friends.
  12. Bungee jumping is one of the scariest things I have ever done ! Did one at work when we had a charity jump, off a 200ft crane! I shat myself
  13. Im doing a tandem sky dive soon, just wondering if anyone here has done one before? Whats it like?
  14. favourite car always has and always will be the Mk1 Escort RS1800 Will be buying one as a project car once funds allow
  15. Clubman Estates to rule the world I Like them all equally, but for me the clubby just takes it as they can look a lot more aggressive if done properly.
  16. On the back of the dash, there should be about 6 or 8 long bolts sticking out? These should have some C shaped brackets that are then screwed in place by some butterfly screws? The bracket hooks top and bottom and then the butterfly screws should tighten it in place. Its hard to explain, let me see if I can fish out a pic... Thats how my new dash went in, might be a bit different on yours..
  17. Im sorry but thats the kind of attitude that causes accidents. I knew a person who did direct access and went straight out and bought a GSXR600. He thought, oh its only a 600 it will be fine. He crashed the same day, as he wasnt even remotely experienced enough to handle such a bike. I have a restriced Suzuki GS500 (33bHp) but that will do 0-60 in seconds, and reach a max speed of around 110mph. Thats not exactly slow... And even thats a handful sometimes. Do a CBT and get used to riding a bike on the roads. Its very different to driving a car as you have to be so much more alert. A 125 will be plenty while you learn and take your full test. Its the most sensible idea as otherwise theres a high chance of a serious accident. And also, bikes hold their vaule very well, especially 125s, as there is always a constant demand for them. I sold my Kawasaki KMX125 for the same price I payed for it, so you're not loosing anything by taking things a bit slower
  18. nope If you want it so bad, buy it you bunch of pirates
  19. Full version is awesome. Some of the tracks are quite hard
