I've got DriveClub for PS4 - I can post it to you if you like? You can steer with a wheel, but there is no force-feedback.....

Two of the three cited as firefighters, so I guess there was a collapse/explosion whilst they were tackling the blaze? :(

Re: For the FTAO of JL

I've always fancied something silly like SO51GIS or CU57ARD... :oops: SO51GIS :lol: I like that, shame you can't have the "I". Interestingly SO53GYS and SO54GYS are both available at £250. Not sure they are as obvious though? It's like the UK-manufactured retort to LA54GNE on an Italian v...

I could do with a reg for the Disco, if anyone is browsing DVLA and comes up with some good ideas, hit me. LO10 MUD, LO75 MUD both available. Latter works for me for £399..... (edit: but duh - can't be fitted on a car of your disco's age) AH11 AWD (or other "AWD" variant? I am not sure my...

Re: For the FTAO of JL

There's something cool when a whole plate makes a single word that's 6 or 7 characters. Reminds me of the plate I saw years ago, XP05URE, really strong. When we had our RX8, one of the guys on the forum got either AR07ARY or RR07ARY - which I thought was 8-) cool. I've always fancied something sill...

As Jobbo had mentioned a couple of unusual responses, I ran my hand quickly over the surface of one of the front tyres when he was here. I took care to be gentle - like making love to a beautiful woman - but I didn't detect any notable feathering.

Re: Panicky overtakees

I guess it helps to have a car that non car people think might be an unmarked police car. You've just reminded of being in Boston USA more than 20yrs ago - called a private hire car to take us from outside of the city into "downtown" and a guy turned up in a black Crown Vic. He was very k...

Re: The resurgence of vinyl

Dave, to put you off here's a photo of a Saisho midi system from the 1980s …. And here's an Amstrad midi system in the same place. Tone control settings on each 😬 My first “hifi” was a JVC midi system…. I stuck the speakers on adjustable wall brackets right in the corners of my room to boost the ba...
