To be fair, Estate Agents are dickheads for using wide-angle lenses which can misrepresent rooms, but not excuse for the rest.

I think many people aren't interested, they're just nosy.

Dream would be an R8. I'm resisting the temptation to look seriously, and I'd probably need to fund a new en-suite and kitchen before that would be allowed.


Every now and again I look at R8's on Autotrader, think about how great they look and are "reasonable" - then after thinking "Why does ...

Trump has openly bragged about how much money his friends made shorting stock during the previous tariff announcements....so we all know how this'll go.

Once again, still amazed at how the American's are just sitting and letting this happen.

My Dad had a 214 SLi, was one of his favourite cars....until it was stolen from a multi-story carpark (of which security was part of his remit, we don't let him forget it). He then bought another one, and discovered that the key works on other Rover 214's - when he opened and got into the wrong car ...

AI is getting wanker by the day. I wondered what a GTV V6 cost new, and the AI tells me:

"The Alfa GT V6 was never sold as a new car, as it is a vintage model from the late 1970s" - sold as a used car from the factory, then I guess.

Anyway, for ...

Up GTi has been serviced, once again cheap and hassle free.

It'll be going up for sale soon, once I've found the replacement, so if anyone wants a brilliant little city car, let me know.

Oof.

I've seen those guys clips before including the one on the building site when they need a sparky and he rolls up in a lambo throwing money around only to flick the power on at the wall.

What could go wrong with a £15k V8 Vantage?

Danger to the heatsink:

however, with a diagonal cut, the edges are perpendicular so not as easily held on just the vertical edges. i quite like the presentation of a diagonal cut.


I'm going to slightly derail the thread but....surely everyone goes corner to corner? Straight edge looks wrong, and isn't as easy to eat ...

i’ll often leave the corners free of butter to allow me to hold it without getting buttery fingers. i’m still up for 90-95% coverage though.


So many things wrong in this thread, bit I'll start here.

Surely you just hold it on crust edges? Or do you have Beadle hand and need to pincer it?

My insurance was quite cheap on the 4C - don't recall it falling into high groups.

It's not a bad place to put your money. They've not moved price wise in many years, so buy privately I reckon you'd sell it for what you paid....I'd have another, but it would have to be a Spider.

If it's a real ...

Oh sorry I see what you mean - no, it's a different login. Should just be able to reset the password.

Strange - tested it on a few devices and takes me to the right place. Might be an outdated cache on your side?

Also, I had to turn off registrations for that, if anyone else needs access, let me know. It was getting rampaged by Europeans uploading some...interesting content.

You can attach small photos to the forum, you know. Or use the gallery.

Word. I may just spin up an Aws/Azure/Linode instance in the Netherlands just for this reason to route all my traffic via. So tired of government meddling in basic web functionality.

As a regular Redditor, this is a PITA. Nearly everything on Reddit is uploaded to Imgur, so so much stuff you click on is now blocked.

I'm pretty much gonna be permanently on VPN these days.
