    A few years ago I tried to find die cast models of the motorbikes I've owned but hit a dead-end straight away :(

    Massive Car insurance costs?

    Fortunately for me, it looks like my insurance cost is going to stay the same as last year. I've moved from a Fiesta ST mk 7 to an ST Mk 8 and even if I were to add an induction kit, road legal exhaust and a remap the price would stay the same :D

    *** Car Wash / Valet / Detailing Thread ***

    Need to start washing my car more often but I struggle for facilities based on where I live. We have a jet-wash but it's broken at the minute so it's a manual hosepipe (low pressure). I've got a few things but having had the car 2 months I need to set some kind of base layer. I have a pack of...

    Do/how to tell insurers about this?

    Insurance can categorically **** off. Can you imagine telling them you hit a pothole and they increase your premium because you told them about it, because they would! *****. I hope you get something back from the council, too. I wrote off an alloy wheel a year ago near Cadwell Park and...

    I have one of these and whenever we used the Megazone option we have to shout it across the kitchen like a US sports announcer. Simple people ;)

    Free £10,000.. what would you do with it?

    A mate won his amount on a lottery within work earlier in the year; I'm a part of the same lottery so I have actually said I'd think about it. Then, if I am lucky enough to win it, I already have a plan. I'd put probably a few £k into Bitcoin, and there's a chance I may take my life to the...

    RAF recruitment, has it gone a bit too far...

    Yeah, looking into way more stuff; It's only an early though at the moment for maybe 2-3 years in the future. Maybe I understood him incorrectly, too!

    RAF recruitment, has it gone a bit too far...

    If I left in 11 years (doing 20 years total) without any further promotion, £79k commuted and £12k pension

    RAF recruitment, has it gone a bit too far...

    He was showing in Australian currency but I've converted it. His screenshot states this as an option "Part Pension, Part lump sum By choosing this option, you are claiming your final benefit by electing to convert a portion of your defined benefit to pension, with the remaining amount paid as...

    RAF recruitment, has it gone a bit too far...

    I've not been in the Eng one, but it sounds similar in Air Traffic. Huge amount of people leaving, not many joining. Because there's not many joining the aptitude test requirements re reduced, so the numbers increase slightly, but then they can't get through the training or scrape through...

    Front left is of a different brand to the rest. Rear Right will also need changing in a few thousand miles. The other pair are Pilot Sport 4's which I'll be going with all around. Good eye though, unless I've missed something! :p

Absolutely stunning...

    What to do with a (very old) outdated PC?

    Yeah I completely agree hence I didn't want to essentially just take it to the tip!

    What to do with a (very old) outdated PC?

    Hi all, I replaced my gaming PC around 18 months ago and my old PC is still sat here in my office doing nothing. What do I do with it? The components are massively outdated (circa 2012) and by the end of it's life it was blue screening. (Radeon 7950, Core I5 2500k, Z68 AP D3 Mobo, so stuff...

    Couldn't even imagine without either of those options. Heated Seats was an absolute requirement. I looked at Polo GTI's a few weeks back but when I found out they don't even have heated seats as an option they were struck off the list.

    I've sorta wanted to change my Mk 7 Fiesta ST for a while now but just didn't really get around to it/didn't feel the need to do it. I've been keeping an eye out and essentially deciding what options I needed and wanted. A few weeks ago, this one came up with the right colour, options and good...

    Road Cycling

    Even those are more than I'd be planning to spend. Literally looking at spending maybe £400 max (which would perfectly cover a new Triban RC120 Disc, think their cheapest gravel bike is £500)

    Road Cycling

    Would it be sorta 'usable' for Winter road-riding too? We often only average around 16 mph, but if I were to get one with a single gear at the front, and a big cassette at the back, that would be alright?

    Road Cycling

    So I posted in here a week or two ago saying I'd joined a cycling club and I was putting in way more miles etc. etc. This morning on my walk I was thinking to myself 'Do I need to get a winter bike..?' and then I turn up to our club ride this morning (still pretty much dry and sunny) and 3...
