OV9

I'm too critical of NCG mechanical sympathy to let just any one drive my cars, so it's emergencies only for me.

YK let me drive his GT3 on my 3rd party a couple of times, then added me as named driver (like the superstar he was).

WTF? https://twitter.com/simonharris_mbd/status/1732046824918450448 Looks a lovely starter. What’s for the main? I have issues with this. Surely you will end up with bean run away due to being at a lower level than other foods. During scoop it will end to under and cause unnecessary stress during c...

I've gone off the whole gorging myself thing tbh. The amount of waste at this time of year must be incredible. Waste? Noo, the turkey goes into boxing day buffet lunch, then soup. Veg and stuff is fried up for breakfast.. When my entire close family is in one place there's not much getting left ove...

Exactly. The aim is to be full on food sweats so you can relax and watch a crap film, until someone starts making supper and you all pile on again.

Starter is a legal requirement surely.

Pre drinks

Rest and more drinks
Main
Rest and more drinks
Dessert
Cheese board
Coffee
More drinks.

This should last most of the day though, to be clear..

Haven’t they already done McLaren?

Also, a Creator version, which is why I had McL in mind

There's looking likely to be another Technic F1 coming at least, McLaren. I'm bored with the Speed Champion stuff tbh. Haven’t they already done McLaren? Indeed, silly me was too busy thinking of that model when I was typing.. new one is a Merc https://youtu.be/ljr9iurvAhw?si=m5fotstqy3bERq-M

Ah man, horrible news.

Recently finished a jar of silverskin, bought another jar. I try to keep them in stock, nice on sarnies or sometimes to give a bland meal some zing.

Most modern bikes have quick shifters too, which might be what Alex heard? You kick the gears up without clutch and it cuts ignition briefly, then if you go down the box it auto-blips to help match speeds again.

Honda have DCT on a couple of their machines, have done for a few years. They've just brought out an e-clutch too, some kind of recluse type thing.

All three of my bikes currently on my fleet of MXS5s, Civic also on one today (monthly top up) and yet I still hanker after the 10a CTEK. The MXS5 is great for the bikes but it takes all day to run a full cycle on the Civic, so what I'm suggesting is you aim higher.. Amazon currently doing it on sal...

I hit diesel on my bike on early September, front washed out and I slammed my right leg down to catch it. It hurt but I stayed upright thankfully and continued to work. Sore back for a few weeks, rode to South of France and back with it, then a weekend up Kielder on the bike, then early Nov I start ...

Have you seen the new Kia SUV? EV9 or some such? Similar to that heffer but at least it might work.

It doesn't hang about for four tonne no..

Lego aren't stupid, they know the more adult oriented sets can be kept at RRP for a long time as there's sentimental mugs like us that can and will pay for it. Technic stuff does appear to get discounted heavily though, in slight contradiction to that. If you're a member on Lego Insiders, this weeke...

Likewise here Si, I've bought it but still yet to make any of the bigger sets of late. Saving them for the long winter nights tbh. The Technic version is more likely to be discounted Gav, if you don't have it already?

They spelt Canyonaro wrong.

The.Actual.Fvck is that abomination.

As above, it could be they need one for static shots/feature or they might want to get some footage/driving in. Most you'll get is lunch paid for, maybe some copies of the shots taken (eventually) and the smugness of having your car in print/media. Old forumite MattHs' 306 has just appeared in Danny...
