« on: 31 August 2012, 22:31:38 »I'm gonna stick my twopenneth in here, and I fully expect to get shot down for it...I would like to 2nd the above motion,
Reading through the posts on this thread, particularly from the TB, talking about big stops from 3 figures, from roundabout to roundabout around MK, trying to find out what when the brakes on you circa 2 tonne lethal weapon might decide they've had enough... What the hell are you playing at?
I believe you have posted an awful lot about a certain Rover 25 that is no more, due to someone piling into the back of it, and the subsequent health issues you have suffered as a result...
All I can say is, I hope to fack, that I'm not sitting at a roundabout in MK, with my 11 month old daughter in the back of my car, next time you decide to performance test the braking power of your car!!
I have a 3.2 Omega Elite estate (basically the heaviest version made) with the standard GM brake setup... It serves me perfectly well at sensible driving speeds on public roads... If the situation arises where I need to anchor up, then once again, it performs perfectly well, and I always have one eye in the rear view mirror, to make sure the fella behind me can stop as well as me.
If you are finding that your driving style is out-performing you brake setup, then can I respectfully suggest that you take yourselves off to an empty race track or airfield, an keep off the public highways where you could end up killing someone.

General Car Chat / Re: insurance....
« on: 27 August 2012, 15:17:22 »
i have yet to understand car insurance.
they all say the reason it keeps going up is due to personal injury claims and claims mangment companys and other things.
well if insurance wasnt that good a paying buissness why are there so many companys selling it,and more joining the fold
