Worst advice ever?

You said it was a UK Spec before - or is this a different car?

Well that didn't last long. They're having their pre-bedtime scrap now.

It'd be a repost there as well as here.

Think about it, if that were true how come there's hundreds of people that have won the lottery over the years and no people that have had their home hit by a plane even twice?

Nick's BPU compared to a M3 : http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?p=999608&highlight=zx#post999608

I downloaded a warez copy of FarCry2 the other day, try-before-you-buy style. I didn't rate it much. Looks pretty but the gameplay is just the same old thing. I was bored of it in 20 mins. So I won't be buying this game.

Beagles are great dogs Matt. They're so funny and very affectionate too, they love a good cuddle on the sofa when you're watching TV - but I must tell you that both mine were quite bad for biting and chewing while they were still teething. I can't remember what age they grew out of it - definitely worth checking this about Lottie though mate. Not wanting to ruin anything here but you need to know all the facts if you've got young kids that might be upset by a dogs nip (It wouldn't do them any actual bodily harm, but kids... you know)

Why do people do this? Both of our Beagles came from homes where somebody had them for like 2 weeks and then didn't want them any more. It's not like Beagles are particularly demanding - no more than most pups anyway. Got any pics? (not that we have room for another though)

....and the spec of your car is? Anyway, I don't think Hadyn is solely interested in the side by side drag race comparison, lets not get bogged down in that.

Mines an M3 Danny. In a straight line it's faster than a Supra TT, a bit slower than a BPU Supra. It's faster round corners and much nicer to drive generally. It also has pretty good fuel consumption - I average over 27mpg. You will get less than 20mpg from an M5. But regardless of all that, with a 10k budget I would still buy an m5 in preference to an m3.

No. Certainly not good ones anyway. If you're buying an M3 you want an April 03 or newer made one. The earlier ones had some nasty rod bearing issues. (I think it's April 03, might be May, I forget right now) A stock Supra TT won't keep up with a BPU Supra either. Stock ones? I disagree. (I currently own both)

For 10k : M5. You don't want a 10k m3, it'll be a dog.

(From : http://notalwaysright.com ) Me: “Hi, how can I help you?” Customer: “I need to return this camera.” Me: “Sure, was it not working?” Customer: “I just don’t want it, okay?” Me: “Okay. Have you opened the box yet?” Customer: “Why does that matter?” Me: “Well, as the sticker on the box says, if the box is opened and you return it, I have to charge you a restocking fee.” Customer: “Oh. No… no, it hasn’t been opened.” (I look and the box has been clearly opened, with a torn seal.) Me: “Uh… are you sure it hasn’t been opened?” Customer: ”LOOK! ARE YOU CALLING ME A F***ING LIAR? Where is your manager? I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars here and this is how I’m treated?!” Me: “Ma’am, if you just–” Customer: “THESE PEOPLE CALL CUSTOMERS LIARS! DON’T SHOP HERE!” Me: “Ma’am, I believe you! I will return it!” Customer: “That’s right you will!” Me: “Can I see your receipt?” Customer: “It’s in the box.”

Touched a nerve? Serves you right you lazy bugger.

Would you like a copy of Photoshop, Hadyn? Then you could do it yourself. http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/3714/22376006ft3.jpg

Instead of paying your mate 3k, just start your own triangle for free. Once you have found the two people to pay you 3k each you'll be off and running.

I did. If he does, I'm not aware of it.

"Episode 149: Veyron Crash" ?

I bet people wouldn't be backing Mr Sachs if he had a long and boring record of getting easily offended at the drop of a hat and wanting people dead.

That's just the keyboard though mate. It's really the mouse I'm looking for. Ta. I've found the ones we use at work now - actually the brand name is Gyration too. Edit: Ah, you found it too - thanks mate

I want a wireless mouse (and new wireless keyboard possibly although I already have a half decent one) which will work well with a large TV screen as a monitor. I've seen one at work that besides being a regular wireless mouse also works by pointing it at the screen and moving it about in the air - but I don't know what these things are called! Anyone know WTF I'm on about? Anyone recommend anything? Thanks

Well that's a bonus. I wonder how much VNP 821L is worth to a collector? Boar? I bet that sounds unusual (classy)
