  1. Now, my list isn't that impressive but I will share... with pictures! Car number 1 I learned to drive in, passed then drove for a few months then crashed (turned too early, clipped the verge, span and flipped onto my roof). This is my Ford Fiesta MK3 1ltr The 2nd car I got was a month after my crash, spent ages looking and finally found one. Straight away it needed a cambelt but with me knowing a mechanic it wasn't a problem. This car never let me down! Drove it in the snow and everything, great fun. What is it i hear you asking... This is my Ford Fiesta MK4 1.25ltr Now for the 3rd car, this is the worst I've owned so far :(. It was an impulse buy as it's got more power and a lot more comfortable. However it had a few problems, the wheel bearing kept going and took a lot of hours to replace due to rusted C clip. Best was when I came to a junction and my brake line ruptured, made for an interesting drive home indeed. Then a month later the other went! By then I had mastered driving with little brakes ;). This is my Hyundai Accent 1.5i CDX The 4th car I owned for 2 years as I loved it, again more power and really good handling. It wasn't without problems but I figured just chuck money at it and it will be fine, which is was. It's the first car I had bought with all my money costing £4k! Which isn't a lot to most people I know. One problem I remember was is kept warping brake discs, no matter how careful I was... I even put expensive ones on which lasted a long time before the warped. In the end we figured out it was a bent hub! This is my Ford Fiesta Zetec S 1.6ltr The 5th and final car is one you all know.... This is my Subaru Impreza WRX 2.0ltr
  2. That means I have to invest in GTA... :P. Would be great fun! No Gambit, I'm not having any troubles with freezing or frame rate drops
  3. Just had a check, it's 2 player online unless you play the online multiplayer
  4. Awesome game.. once I was let loose in the first area (first bit you uncover on the map) I bough the maps and collected everything. Then got to the 2nd area and thought "bugger this, there's so much to pick up, I'll get it later!" :P
  5. I don't feel as bad now... will be playing at 6. I'm off to London next Tuesday, building a stand for Firestar Toys at the Excel on Wednesday :)
  6. That looks mint, any issues will surely be ironed out soon :). Very impressed! What's the game like in general?
  7. Nothing beats the Halo update... jesus that was big! Hopefully someone arrives home before me and starts the install
  8. Alright for some hey :P. You will have to let us know what it's like!
  9. I loved Far Cry 3 so really excited to play this tonight! Hopefully the story is as good in this one, thought the ending to 3 was funny when you wake up being ridden ;) haha.
  10. That video may help, similar set up perhaps?
  11. Looks smart that, well impressed. Good work!
  12. Well I've been quiet again so will give a quick lowdown on anything interesting that has been going on. 1. Finally starting to get comfortable with getting it unstuck on corners, better throttle control and so on 2. Gave it a really good clean on saturday so looks lovely again 3. My brother in law has done his back in so the work on my Subaru has been put on hold :( As for stuff to do with the car I'm looking at getting: 1. Pitch mount 2. Rear strut brace 3. Gold or gunmetal grey alloys? Still unsure That's to go on top of all the other stuff I listed earlier. Will get there in the end :) EDIT: Also, what oil should I put in? My brother in law uses 5-30w semi synthetic just wondered if it's worth using something else?
  13. Nice lights, I also like your alloys. That's one thing I want to change on mine, either get them refurbished or get some different ones :)
  14. Imagine having that as your daily car, certainly would turn some heads lol.
  15. Took a drive out to the lakes to do the Kankku self drive safari, 55km of off roading in an ex army Landy! Great fun and worth doing :) . Noticed a severe lack of Shell garages though, even BP didn't have Ultimate Unleaded :( . This week my car will be in for it's service and the other stuff on the list...
  16. Wow that looks amazing!! I saw the mod when that was out but didn't look good, Rockstart certainly sorted things out :P
  17. Thanks Gambit ;) It arrived yesterday Matt, all fitted and the car feels a little bit perkier (either the filter or cold air... or both).
  18. Come to think of it there was a letter for me with some green fluff inside? ;)
  19. I will when it arrives, still waiting :( . When it does, that's something I can do myself ;)
  20. Aye sure is, it will cost me still.. there's only some much I can have done on the side lol
  21. Got a list for my brother in law.... Service Fix speaker (left one has stopped working) Fix rattle (Heat sheild on up-pipe) Investigate power steering judder Investigate rear suspension creak Fit Prodrive Y pipe Fix coolant leak Should keep him busy ;)
  22. Today I've been driving from place to place, walking, shopping and the odd bit of showing off against cars that think they are fast. Quite a fun day really, got myself a 42" LG LED tv to replace my old rubbish Techwood 32"... gaming is awesome now! Oh and I hit this milestone..
  23. I was looking at getting one of these, noticed on a few pictures on google that people seem to only have one bolt in? You would think they make sure they fit lol.
  24. I have access to a plotter so can have vinyl cut out.. now to decide if I want anything on my splitter ;) . Shame about that fireworks place :( . Going to have a look now, only know because of you guys.
