What did you do to your zed today?
Whipped round a few local roads today put some warmth in the car. Haven't driven it for a fortnight so I was half expecting the battery to be flat but it fired straight up, good as gold.

EU: Leave or Remain
I'm not a Farage fan, however I do see some use in the man. Firstly he is a cut throat *******, he's a banker through and through. That strength of character is something that many of these pampered princes we call politicians don't possess. Regardless of that quality, let's face it 98% of them are bent and selfish. What he does best is stir the pot and argue the toss. One of those never back down pig heads. All this business lately is the result of bubbling discontent for years. I genuinely believe recent event are good for Britian and further more the EU. It's forced a very arrogant bunch of people to pay some attention to their long ignored electrate. Calls today for heads of state to discuss things with Britian alone as the EU commission is actually making talks worse are a great example. Some times you need a good fire. Would farage make a good PM, hell to the no! Would he make a good opposition leader, Damn right. Currently my money is on Teresa May to become the new PM. She's a head strong lady and I think we may see the Iron Lady mk2. Britian needs some *****cks right now.

They seem to put them in the back box when testing. To be fair the cost of two is still way cheaper than a new engine.

It's a real shame that a single cannot be mounted in the X pipe. Cut down on costing a fair bit.

EURO 2016 joke
Agreed. They seem hungry for it and really hope they do Britian proud. We could do with something positive.

On the contrary Andrew that's actually what they do. :lol:

Simply japanese 2016!!!
Probably not, however the stay in a hotel in one of the prettiest national parks in the county might make up for it. You can also ditch the car and go for a walk round the abbey and gardens. Just saying lol. It's only 5 and half hours each way :lol: - - - Updated - - - Of corse my friend.

The stero as far as I'm aware, was single din originally, you could opt for an extra speaker thing in the lower portion. So what what you need is just the stock basic arrangement. If I'm understanding you correctly.

Personally think this is balls and I disagree with the tone. However I can see how it could be the case. http://indy100.independent.co.uk/article/people-are-really-really-hoping-this-theory-about-david-cameron-and-brexit-is-true--bJhqBql0VZ?utm_source=indy&utm_medium=top5&utm_campaign=i100

Good stuff. Proper experienced and knowledgable people really help with stuff like this. It's a shame we don't have more of them.

Business as usual mate. I was actually outside the Houses of Parliament yesterday and it just looked like a sunny afternoon with tourists everywhere taking pictures.

If they cared that much they'd do a better job of intercepting them on there way.

The French have been threatening to do that since the thing started. Nothing new there.

Be interested as to what the solution was. I take it you no longer have to send it back?

EU: Leave or Remain
Yeah I can see something nice and undemocratic happening. What I genuinely cannot get with those in Scotland so determined to live Britian is what they plan to achieve. The argument as I understand it is that London doesn't understand them and because they are out numbered they cannot govern themselves fully. Now the whole being detached from London thing is a nationwide issue, unless your in London you don't really feel part of it, especially if your not in the South east of England. Equally getting rid of the middle Man just makes you an even smaller voice in a group of 27 countries. Surely democratically for Scotland the best option is to remain the UK and push for equal democratic power over themselves, same for the English, Welsh etc. Scotland on its own in Europe wouldn't be a very big player and as we know even when your the second biggest economy in the group are you get overruled and ignored.

EU: Leave or Remain
From discussions this morning it won't be Boris. The Conservative party don't like him much at present as they see him as a back stabber that's divided the party utterly. They also think they will cease to be electable due to the post result back lash from the remain campaign. Trump is a possibility and on purely selfish terms we'd do better neogations wise with him than if Obama were remaining in office. I believe he will be genuinely harmful to the U.S. a crash in the dollar that saw strength to the Euro and Pound can only be good for us presently. Although it's worth pointing out that most of the markets are back to where they were on Monday.

Power limits
You need far more information than that to answer the question. There's cars out there that blew up at 280hp and cars out there running 700hp+ running sub 10 sec quarters.

EU: Leave or Remain
To an extent I do agree with the sentiment that not everyone is qualified to make a rational and complete decision. However how do you quantify the eligiblity of a person. Do you have to have a degree? In actuality how would a textiles technology degree give you better insight into politics? I know some incredibly stupid smart people and vice versa. The demographic of the forum here is pretty average I'd say, would most of us Infact actually be exempt for a vote? We live in a free democracy, as such every man and woman over 18 can have their say. If you start limiting the people that can vote that's defiantly a step backwards for freedom and liberty, wether they agree with you or not. Now the event is passed all these opinions we are getting are wasted breath. I know it's a car forum but this thread has been up for months with very little comment. Maybe if people felt so strong they should of expressed their opinions here before, rather than after the horse has bolted. Time to get on with it regardless of how you feel about the result.

EU: Leave or Remain
Britain has been fed up and Euro skeptic for many many years, by that I don't mean everyone wanted out but finding someone who believes the EU is actually good as it is is hard. Think back about bloody banana fiascos etc. Then there's the fact that the British don't really consider themselves "Europoens" we are in Europe but Europe is that lot over there, one foot has always been out the door. So actually it's not so surprising. Actually the win was narrow, there's no 75% landslide it's a few %. So actually the result says in truth that Britain is undecided on wether it should be in the EU but the majority feel the answer is no. All this throwing the toys out the pram and media hysteria, painting people as thick or racist is laughable. An opinion is just that. The difference between bravery and stupidity is often the outcome. So far we haven't even walked out the door, someone has to be brave if anyone is going to succeed. No one said it was going to be easy but in the long run I truly believe Britian is best off getting out the EU project.
