Re: Parking space widths

No one cares about width including mirrors! A Citroen C4 (first random shitbox I clicked on) is 2050mm with mirrors!

yeah, steering wheel aside, I like the whole thing.

Re: And then there was none..

Colleague/mate hired a T350 for his 25th. It was very good value, but the mandatory insurance excess of £3.5k (circa 20yrs ago) proved a great deterrent to push it too hard. blimey, I was about to post the same thing. My best mate hired a T350 for his 27th and came round to mine (and informed me I ...

I can handle anything except for storylines that don't make sense. I get that good actors, good production and special effects all cost money, but storylines don't cost anything to get right! Theres just no way excuse!

Re: Parking space widths

I think by now most of them have either failed and been scrapped, failed and been fixed, or never were going to and never are going to fail. They're 15-20 year old cars now, etc. times marching on Beany - M3s could be 18-24 years old - and cooking e46s could be almost 27 years old! There were plent...

never had any issues with any. I didn't have any rear subframe mount issues with my e46 either though - so maybe these internet horror stories aren't a guarantee!

Re: The Movie Thread

Road House (New one) It was alright, Jake Gylenhall was good. It was close enough to the original to be recognisable without being slavish. Connor McGregor was ridiculous but I’d watch him in more trashy action films tbh. it was awful! JG was pretty good, but if you took away him you'd be left with...

Re: Parking space widths

Having owned the two cars in question for 5 and 4 years each, I'm inclined to value my opinion over someone who hasn't. (I'm only talking about the respective M3s, I don't care about the lesser models). The e46 is a fantastic car, if mine hadn't been driven into, chances are I'd still have it and l...

Re: Parking space widths

Again yet more proof that the E46 was peak 3 series. Dave! having owned both, the E92 M3 was better in every way than the E46 M3 (and I was very fond of both). I don't think the rod bearings in the E92 M3 were better than the E46, objectively. Subjectively the looks of the E92 are so dependent on t...

Re: Mountain Biking general thread

I did try a pair of Ride Concepts. They seemed well made, the only issue I had was they were a mid height and rubbed on my ankle. I've ended up with a pair of 5:10s that a mate rejected too and gave to me to try, (that I curse as being shit every time I put them on). I keep meaning to go and buy som...

Re: Mountain Biking general thread

I tried a few - you really need to try them on these days, the sizes, shapes and fits of them all are so varied now. I used to just get a 5:10 freerider in 9 and it would be great. Now nothing seems to fit me and I end up sending everything back.

Finally jumped on the Five Ten bandwagon, my feet have been grumbling about wearing Vans all the time. First time I’ve ever got shoes specifically for the bike so I’ll be curious to see if they change how I ride. sadly they were bought out by adidas and the current versions are awful compared to th...

My M2 is as wide as a 4C. Yours just look wide because it's so short. Chode like.

Re: Parking space widths

So further confirmation - cars are getting bigger, not spaces getting smaller.
