Re: The Weather Thread.
Just looked like whisky grey cloud with a touch of light pollution. I expressed my dissapointment by having a piss https://i.imgur.com/49Nbs65.jpeg Didn’t think any of my own photos had captured anything until looking the next morning and seeing one with some colour, but very blurry 😅 ( I had drunk ...

Re: Today’s want
It's a Merc "thing" innit, putting everything on one stalk. I hate it too. The Vito was the same and didn't even have the excuse of needing the other side for the shifter. Not just that though! Indicators, main beams and wipers on one stalk, cruise control on another stalk, steering wheel...

Re: Today’s want
I presume they want some sort of lever for ‘manual’ shifts. Sticking it on the column would mean always auto unless you add flappy paddles and clutter. I hate the bmw shifter though, it looks rubbish in normal cars. Why they have to make it look like something from a 90s arcade flying game I don’t k...

Re: Today’s want
Surely no one at Morgan can be happy with it either.
Wonder if it’s some weird condition if being allowed to use bmw power plants that it has to stay?

Re: Today’s want
does it give absurd bhp or not? I doubt it, they were only around 250bhp from the original 3.2l Probably sounds quite nice though! we're spoilt by ///M specific power outputs! My 4 door bmw having 70bhp more, being rwd, and worth about 1/3rd as much as a decent 156 gta was why I never bought one. I...

Re: Your fleet running reports
Well, to be honest it would be nice to see solar all over supermarket / factory / warehouse roofs which is just dead wasted space instead of covering fields with it, but obviously there are logistic and structural issues with that which probably make it many times more expensive to install and maint...

Re: For Sells Lotus Elise S1
Will just be what PH defaults it to based on the reg. you would hope the 140 kit has something approaching 140hp (or PS)
Hmm, looks a decent price. Am I ready for a full on mid life crisis yet?

Things like that would piss me off immensely.
Be great going into work and explaining you were half an hour late because your car was doing an update.

Re: No F1 thread?
Yep, struggling with tyres. Apparently if you over drive even a fraction it would overheat the outer surface losing grip, but the actual carcass wouldn’t warm up, but the Mclaren was good at evenly heating the entire structure. The Race on YouTube normally have decent little vids that explain the te...

Re: 12Cilindri
I like weird looking cars….
I like the overall shape, I just think the black bits at the back don’t look great.

Re: 12Cilindri
I like it. The black bit at the back on the coupe looks a bit weird, but you can see what they were trying to do. It looks rubbish on the soft top though.

Re: Tony Martin Pt2
While I’m not going to go as far as to say all burglars should be shot, anyone breaking into someone else’s house is utter scum, and I hate the ‘good lad’ tributes that pop up surrounding things like this. Not sure what aggravated burglary means, but assume it means with weapons or threats of violen...

Re: Decent car YouTubes
To be fair, modern cars don’t go quicker because they keep making the engine restrictors smaller, probably as a result of that and the flying cars of the late 90s.
The v12 engine bmw put in their X5 lm made more power in that than in the lmp car it came out of.

Re: Jobbo interior
The whole of that Merc looks like you're seeing it through green glass. Brilliant. I remember being at a services somewhere and seeing a relatively new merc clk with what looked like a bright Smurf blue interior and thinking it was pretty cool. Then the owner came back, opened the door and it was j...

Re: Tesla Cyberpuke
They’ve also claimed they’re now making 1000 a week yet delivered less than 4000 since they started delivering in December. I know it takes a while to ramp up production, but seems like quite a difference, especially as there’s supposed to be an insane waiting list, you’d think they’d be shipped out...
