Re: Initial D : Drift Racer

It is definately worth a look if you like Fast and the Furious type of films. It has very little CGI and has some pretty skillful driving in it. The subtitles can be a bit annoying, but then I like the Taxi films aswell which probably doesn't say much for my film taste's. :lol: It is based on the ma...

Sounds like you have had a ruff time of it mate. :( The Dentist you have been seeing sounds like a bit a pleb.

I live less than a mile from a RAF base and have to put up with chinooks going over all day, every day (except weekends). They fly over my house so low that all my windows and my front door shake. They also fly over with crates, massive guns and Land Rovers hanging from the bottom. Bit scary really,...

Did it do much damage to the plastic grille? Gonna need a new insert, but it has also pulled the plastic bit a away from the painted part of the bumper. Also has pulled some of the plastic off the number plate surround. Just another thing to add to the list to be done. :roll: :roll: Tyres were £11...

Passat Animal Trouble

It seems my Passat has been a magnet for animals in the last couple days. Yesterday I was driving to work, in the rain, and out of bush popped a rather large deer. Smacked on the brakes and some how managed to stop hitting it. Then later the same day I was driving home and came across a pheasant, di...

You should get a 14 day period where if you are not happy with your phone or contract you can change them. Not sure about cancelling the contract though.

Re: Newbie Q Passat 1.8t MPG

I do about 350 miles a week and manage to get around 36 mpg. I recently swapped from a diesel which was giving me about 42 mpg (not a passat though). With the price difference between petrol and diesel at the moment it has not really affected my pocket too much.
