When I fix what? TBH in the BMW it's easy, it steers for you. Probably do a mile, nae bother

Nooooooooo. The campervan is half mine, and I still have the old VW T5 too. The last 8 years has been M240i/RS3/RS4/M3T, but they've all been my wife's cars, she's the big earner in the house, not me. I just have to drive them. It's a hard life 😁 Summary: M3 obviously awesome*, involving, sideways, ...

If we'd all listened to Seb_DH on this forum when he was buying at $900 (or was it $100? It was a loooong time ago!) then it could have been us. Mind you, I probably would have sold when it it hit $2,000 or something thinking that was mad gainz :lol: I bought at £300 I think. And was _mad_ skint at...

Rebuilding from scratch will take years if not decades.

Ex-fucking-zactly!

Agreed, it seems very unlikely that good will ultimately come from it. I'm an eternal optimist though

Whatever anyone may think of Musk though, he does Get Shit Done. Maybe in 3 months time everyone's tune will change, and he (and his gf "don o ld" - lolz!!) will actually have exacted fantastic change. I can certainly see the (weak) possibility of a future where the US is managing to do be...

I heard one US tech's opinion that even if the law/army/whoever somehow swept in and got Musk and his teenagers out TODAY (which clearly isn't about to happen), the damage has been done. There'll be backdoors in there that they'd never find, and they'd need to rebuild the whole thing from scratch to...

Ah ok, I assume tpb was long gone/replaced by better things.

Ta! I used to use that donkeys ago, good to hear it's still about.

Is qTorrent still the one of choice, if not what? And where should I be looking for seeds/magnets/whateverthefuckthey'recallednow? Ta

But all it will do is drive inflation... There's zero chance that a US factory will be able to make an engine as cheap as Mexico so prices will rise. Same goes for just about every single product in America. And bringing said factories online will take years as well, hardly going to happen overnigh...

This current fragmentation is unsustainable tbh. People moved from old fashioned cable/sky subs to streaming because it was convenient, customisable to your wishes and cheaper. It’s none of those things now. Agreed! For a long time I pirated everything, because a) skint and b) couldn't watch US sho...

Was a badger alleged to be involved in this incident, or have I misremembered and that's Dom? Separate incident. I LOO'd a 205 into a ditch and blamed it on animal avoidance, and then many years later fessed up that I'd been young, foolish, embarrassed, and there had been no such critter. The folly...

How long can you drive the converted sprinter with your eyes closed? Ages! I've swapped the front bench seats out for two captains chairs with swivels, so it's trivial to walk into the back, climb into the bed and snooze for a bit. A couple of bungies to hold the steering wheel straight and I don't...

At 42, I can sympathise! I had to spend a couple of days under our converted Sprinter about this time last year, adding a hot water & heating system to it. I decided immediately that I needed a decent amount of lift, and a mechanics creeper. Bought a generic creeper on Amazon for £40 or somethin...

Blimey - where have you been? I used to find that when I was bored or procrastinating my hands would (completely on autopilot) hit F6 and then c and then enter. That selected my address bar, did all I needed for "community.evo.co.uk/forums" or whatever to autocomplete, and took me there. ...

I sorned my van a few days ago. I only really use it for going MTBing, and I'm not going to be doing much of that (short of riding from the door) for the forseeable...

Like some others here, my income has dropped to essentially zero for the time being.

If it were I I'd probably post on pinkbike and singletrackworld, and then ebay if no takers. I don't even know what a C16 R is though

TBF, it says "if tampered with", so a full removal MIGHT be ok, so long as your gases are still clear and passing the various tests.
