As Senior R And D Engineer at Jaguar, I have to make decisions which MAKE those compromises I'm afraid....
The nice side is that I know enough technically and understand, so - the first car I ever bought-when I was 17 -way back in 1990, a very skittish and wayward 1970s BMW 323i, gets...
Ice, I have a 1995 Porsche 911 (993 type) Turbo I just bought 3 weeks ago and I also have a 1987 Porsche 928 S4 manual. I've owned the 928 for almost 7 years now and its soon to be up for sale, its been a trusty old shire horse. I'll be sad to see it go.
I also have old cars I've owned for...
Hmmm, No, we were talking about the REAL world outside this forum.....outside this tea cup...
I always thought, and had reoccuring dreams of my death in a car crash at 28...
Unfortunately it never happened...so I'm left to fade away....
Rap and dance music does my head in, along with "rude boy" hotted up Vauxhall Novas and/or Citroen Saxos with loud stereos blarring out with kids with shaved heads driving thinking they're cool.
I guess the equivalent in the US is rice rockets.
Its nice to blast past them in the Porsche!
Lots of threads recently on politics in other forums, almost on the verge of starting "flame wars". I expect better from you people :p. So where do YOU stand?
There are too many generalisations in politics into the narrow catogaries of "the Left" and "the Right".

Living/emigrating to America would make my life better, obviously still doing what I am doing career wise.
I've given this much thought, and this isn't "grass is always greener" as I've done assignments there and go on holiday there every year. I like the people in general and attitudes.It...
Most people these days are familiar with the concept of a parallel universe.
It has been theorised that every quantum possibility or reality that CAN occur DOES-thus forming parallel universes or quantum realities, perhaps seperated by a single event which made the universes diverge. Without...
Actually the only thing you can be sure of in life is Death and taxes....
Tigress, actually I was thinking of putting down the death scene in ST 2 myself.I was also thinking of putting down the death of Michael Eddington, the Maquis leader in Star Trek Deep Space Nine....
My favourite is a story I read when I was only 15 (16 years ago!) and it redefined the way I look at the world.
More of a satirical Sci Fi book, but a sure fire classic nonetheless!
"Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, originally written in 1932 I believe!
Quite unconventional....
Ever been asked whether you'd rather burn out or fade away?
To me there's nothing more romantic then dying in a blaze of glory! Going down for a lost cause perhaps, a glorious lost cause....
What is your favourite death scene in a film or series or general TV?
My favourite is the death of...
Wow, that's uncanny
"My song" is
Ramble on by Led Zeppelin
It tells a tale of a drifter who is on a quest and wonder trying to find love, his heart restless ever since the woman of his dreams betrayed him......
It also has a magic mystical quality to it.....again taking me back to my...
The year 1993, the first year at my University, best most mind-expanding year of my life, when I made the best most open minded, and caring friends,most perceptive and loyal. Where I was appreciated for what and who I was. Great , YOUNG, colourful open minds...
And I knew it would be this way...
Sorry I feel guilty now, :(
There were some guys going on about them at work and they were getting at me -so it was nothing personal!
I can still answer the questions if you like :p
I have some questions:
In that aweful engine- as used in the original Mini, the engine is the over rated A series
Considered by decent engineers past its sell by decades ago-
These are the main features that make it so terrible:
Siamesed intake ports
Common Sump/gearbox oil
3 bearing...
