I've got a lot on DVD too, but not my all-time fave, when they do the Elvis skit - Elvin Pelvin - with Bilko trying to record him singing so he can (natch) make a million $.

I'm laughing just at the thought of the show.
That and 'Car 54' were a Sunday morning channel 4 staple back in the 90's.

After being stuck sharing the wife's Clio for the last four weeks, I've finally taken delivery of my new motor. Yay.

I know the feeling, I have been slumming it in an Astra 1.6 petrol Energy for 4 days while they rebuild the gearbox in my 20 month old 2.0cdti Elite biturbo, talk about gutless, not very comfy with cloth seats very uneconomical in comparison, can't wait to get it back tomorrow (hopefully!).

Ford Focus. I think I posted about it a while back.

The wife's car is a 1.6 petrol so does have a bit of go about it. But I'm used to driving big turbo diesels, so it's been quite difficult.

Although (and this probably belongs in the sister thread) I have just noticed a small dent and paint chip on the rear wing Sad Didn't notice it when the car was delivered.

I think my new PC just showed it had a Windows performance index of 1.0. Cheesy

I would guess it was on one of the graphics WPI ratings....probably a driver issue.

You're correct. Under Aero and/or 3D it had a 1.0 I think. It also didn't have the correct drivers, but to be fair, I doubt a 1.0 under graphics would bother me in the slightest.

I've had to slum it in a 1.8 petrol for the past few years until my Jaguar XFR gets delivered.

Hurrah, looks like the dealer is going to pay to fix it.

Wes just got a call up for England on my FM15 save.



In fairness, he's helped me reach the group stage of the CL...
