Not a bad effort at all no, and Technic is very hard to balance between getting the silhouette right and faking with stickers. I'd want to work on the front area perhaps, but still cool.

Part of me enjoys other people's reactions to stuff like this too. :lol:

I see it as a reliable shopping trolley for when I can't use a bike, plus this'll carry the mountain bike/canoe/tent easily. And no more anxiety about parking either.

Side bonus, if it hangs around long enough, my niece is ...

After pontificating for far too long about what car to get next, I ran out of time as the lease Ioniq6 was collected in late March and left me with nothing. Picked up a '16 plate Jazz yesterday for some cheap plain wheels while I figure out what I want to do.

£35 VED and 50mpg+ claimed, so that's a ...

I've got that set but I don't recall it being any more annoying than usual

Saw there's a Ken Block Hoonigan Mustang coming in this range too

Been watching the shorts and its been great yeah, I just don't have the necc streaming service currently.

I do however have HBO Max now, gifted courtesy of my paylords, which was nice.

Never had an issue on the three I've had, I just make sure I give it a hard brake (push through any regen) once in a while. Also noticed it'll always use the brakes in reverse.

I bumped into Rev last weekend, he happened to drop in a bike track day at Oulton where I was supporting for a mate of mine.

Broccers active on X and Insta, I see him commenting on investment bots and the like.

ETA - the squeegee chap was the only time I've had to deal with Manheim and it felt like he was incentivised to find something.


This was Manheim today, and he used a squeegee to clear some overnight rain off the roof (I cleared the rest of the car but the roof was still frosty before he ...

@Barry can you find a cheap used EV now? I guess 'cheap' is relative, it'll probably still be £15-20k for something in good condition.


You can get the eNiro for that price range yeah, just wary of being out of warranty while these cars prove themselves out. The EV repair industry still feels ...

People really are cvnts.


Ioniq6 went back today, the inspector was very thorough, picked up on the small repairs on bumpers easily, and flagged some v minor corrosion on two of the diamond cut wheels, says Hyundai will try to charge for those being repaired (dafuq - its manufacturing failure not ...

That's probably one for the "The Modelaircrafterist Thread" thread.

yeah, its a little plane for this thread..

The Schumacher F1 car is a nice build, quickest I’ve ever built one. Disappointing that they are still making the wheels same size front and back.


Why did they do that, when the Mansell car had the wider wheels?!

Also, really liking the DC-3

I picked up a nice little Lotus Cortina at the weekend


Have yet to decide how to store/display them, I was hoping the addiction would die naturally.

I won't start the rabbit hole of how you organise, as that seems to set the AFOLs off too Si

Just watching Youtubes and the lists of retiring stuff this year is concerning, SW Falcon UCS and Venator

The adult Lego world does seem overly fanatical, but Lego are clearly capitalising while they can.

That said,I just don't get these new play brick sets, expensive and not actually much better than the usual sets tbh. Not including a brick in every set is just rude too.

Picked up one of these at the weekend, haven't opened it yet and I'm not expecting Lego levels of inginuity but its a Honda innit

You can set the angle of dangle with these Abba lifts, all pretty versatile really. I keep pondering a standard bike lift, Machine Mart keep doing their VAT free deals..

'scuse me, I love my Z900RS

That's a cool thing for a teen Tim

Meep! Looks cool Si.

Just seen some images of the new Snoopy set too, that looks lovely.
