General Discussion Area / Choice of Music advice needed

« on: 06 May 2007, 13:12:13 »

As you can see I live in inland Spain.

When I lived in the UK and had broadband it was easy to download music and know what was going on music wise. Now it is a very rare occasion when I go to a supermarket or "music shop". Can anyone suggest CD's to get on the next trip please?

I like Faithless stuff - the latest one was bought about 9 months ago. Other likes- Dirty Vegas, Coldplay, U2, classic chillout, dance. Anything with a good sound that I can have blaring away while I fix the latest thing to drop off the Omega.! I am getting a bit fed up of tapes of Pete Tong from 15 years ago.

General Discussion Area / Which spark plugs are these ?

« on: 21 December 2006, 11:57:56 »

Good news, at long last I have fitted a new DIS Pack to my 2.5 V6 and the dreadded misfire at 2000 rpm has gone. I also fitted new VX spark plugs of the part number recommended on the forum.

The ones I took out are GM 93183992. they have three electrodes unlike the twin electrode ones I fitted.

Are the ones I took out the original fitments or incorrect!!!

General Discussion Area / Speeders - Shady Insurance Co moneyspinner?

« on: 02 November 2006, 14:09:52 »

Despite only ever having had one speeding fine about 100 years ago, I was having a think about one of the side effects of getting penalty points for speeding. It is this. Your insurance goes up on renewal assuming you tell the company. Now whilst I would agree that maybe 6 % of accidents are speed related (and that is 6% too many), I would assert that the vast majority of speeders “get done” and have points added and increased insurance premium but they are still the same safety /insurance risk they were before getting done. You could even argue they are now safer and should have a reduced premium.

The silent winners are the insurance companies who hide behind “ cars cost more to fix nowadays”, "more dents in car parks" (who are the brains behind making car parking spaces only suitable for 1930’s cars anyway?) whilst trousering extra money from the many who are getting done. That’s it I’m off mi soapbox now
