  14. obviously they could be de-restricted, I was proving the point that the want us to speed They would never restrict top end, because the market for prestige cars would bottom out.

  16. don't do it, suffer from HG failure (yes still) worse so on the TF due to poor cooling, go for a MR2
  17. ""A national speed limit of 50mph would make roads safer," said Griffith" Well this is the letter I sent in: Hi, I am writing a publication for an online safety report, and would like a question answered that has been bugging me for a while. Most government run schemes to enforce road safety are the introduction of "speed cameras", one such place is the motorway. One big question I have kept asking myself, and which I have yet to answer in my publication is: Why are cars not electronically limited to 70 miles per hour? This is the maximum speed limit that is legal on the UK roads. If speeding is of such great importance to saftey I can see no such reason that car manufacturers should not be made to limit their cars to 70 mph. This would save huge amounts of police/ambulances and fire crews that would otherwise be chasing people speeding, surely if they can't speed then this would free a huge amount of resources and would also save lives as well as provide a better mpg return thus saving on pollution, it would also mean that people could spend 100% attention on the road and their mirrors rather than focusing on their car's speed, which they would no could now, not exceed the speed limit. I look forward to any comments you have, Regards, Reply was: ############################################ Thank you for your email of 17 October concerning speed limits. I am replying as I deal with speed limit policy. To place a manufacturing restriction on the sale and use of cars that can exceed the speed limit, would require European agreement. If the UK were to introduce this type of restriction of its own accord, we would undoubtedly place an unfair trade restriction on many companies. This would isolate us further us from competing in an already highly competitive market, and trade would be affected. In addition, drivers are quite within their rights to take their cars on private land (race tracks, for example) and race them. A speed restriction would undoubtedly curtail this particular pastime. Ultimately, a car itself is not dangerous, however the manner in which the vehicle is used may be dangerous. To reduce vehicle performance will not decrease irresponsible and discourteous driving. I hope this is helpful. Ian Edwards Even road safety know speeding isn't the major cause of accidents.
  18. 2F2F on the dvd player, enough said
  19. Just buy the fireworks, shorten the fuses then return them
  20. I don't see how people can still be entertained by back yard fireworks, ok at a display where they have spent £1,000's on a properly co-ordinated display, but back yard fireworks ( I know there are nuts that spend £100's on them) are just poor and boring I know of better ways than lighting £20 notes for thrills
  21. IIRC if something is "significantly" different than described you can claim, but then it starts getting very lawyerish very fast.
  22. As remembrance day is coming up, I thought do poppy's cost anything I always give money, but never take a poppy since I view that my money has gone straight to the cause rather than -x pence for the cost of a poppy, but then I thought maybe there is a special agreement and they get the poppy's manufactured for free? Does anyone know, saves me walking round looking like a tight git
