    I got £40 in 1994, £65 in todays money, but justclothes and entertainment. I got a job if I wanted more.

    richardmars, you are one big hypocrite thats for sure, spending time on a social networking site whilst you ban your family from another. I guess you could be saving up a rebelion for the future, although I don't know how old your kids are…

    You are not Austrian are you?

    My old boss had one, really nice inside and in 2.0T petrol it felt pretty nippy.

    Rear seats are useless as actual seats. I'd only get one if I was single or a DINKY

    Because they are squinting, whilst trying to get your plate as you cut them up making a last minute dash for the slip road in your Audi TT

    the hills are for people who can use a map and compass. Anyone trying to navigate the highlands by cairn is an idiot.

    random cairns are vandalism

    I drink something to recover straight away (usually chocolate oatly) and then eat within 2 hours and usually I'm fine.

    Britain prides it's self on the class system. It's a tourist attraction, the yanks love it. I'm all in favour of it.

    I think I'd be upper middle.

    Presuming you are serious (which I hope you aren't), everyone in the know will know you are driving round in a 13K car and aren't really loaded at all. This is in addition to the other drawbacks highlighted above.

    Really all you will be saying is I am a ******.

    Does anyone actually benefit from having one of these…?

    Not trying to start an argument, just curious…

    Depends, do you need an MPG read out in your car to drive more economically? If you already do it as economically as you can then no, if you don't then it will help you manage it down

    A VAG with a remap will pull smoothly through from well under 1500 to well over 3500, There is virtually no lag lower down the revs, but cruising at 90 you feel a fair bit before it boots you up to 100, albeit very bloody quickly….

    There is a curry house on the High Street and it was great last time I went. But that was about 4 or 5 years ago

    I reckon that would be quite cool, you'd get to be all aloof, wear horn rimmed glasses, stripy socks, use management speak and slink off for a research ride at least twice a week

    and Jack Russel

    I've been bitten by one of them before too, unprovoked riding down a country lane, about 12. it ran out of a farm and clamped onto my foot

    Destroy them all IMO

    Of course I don't base everything on need, but I don't have a rottweiler for the same reasons that I don't have a tiger or a lion. I don't need/want them and they are potentially dangerous to me and other people

    you sure you read it? I think the message was that ALL breeds are dangerous.

    Sure, did you miss the bit about where he mentioned the breeds that killed children. rottweiler /___bull

    c.f. 5 children killed in the last 5 years by dogs according to a pro-dog web site that seems to have some very sensible views on dog control.

    Good article, it has convinced me even more about banning and destroying the dangerous breeds. People are never going to be responsible enough to look after them. Why does anyone need to own a rottweiler?

    USA road trip. I've done the bum it round the far east and thats OK, but the states is awesome IMO. People are so friendly no language barrier

    My best ever holiday was starting in New York and then flew to Denver and drove for 3 weeks though the rockies, Skied one day in Breckenridge, mtb the next day in Moab in the desert heat. Then up to Arches national park, Vegas, Yosimite, San Francisco etc etc.

    We did a similar thing 2 years in a row, cost us a bomb but loved it

    My parents have had dogs for the last 30 years. Well 2 dogs a spaniel and a labrador. I like fairly placid dogs but I still had to go to hospital after the spaniel bit me. I'd never own a dog myself, getting up at 6:30 to walk it, carrying its shit home in a tesco bag, er no thanks!

    But now there appears to be a trend towards dangerous dogs. It scares the crap out of me when I take my 2 year old twins to the park and see a couple of fellas getting some staffordshire or something to jump up and hang off a tree. I've no idea how you control the situation but any dog that looks like a rottweiler / ___ bull terrier should be confiscated on sight and killed regardless of the owner

    if you're working in London, live in London and at least get the benfits, but live on the side of London you will want to head out towards most regularly.

    Amen to that

    Northfields, Ealing. Its Zone 3 but really handy for getting west out of London on the M4

    Personally I think you'd be totally insane to commute from Rugby to London. I work with a guy that does this excact trip and he sets off at 5 and gets home at 8 every day, never sees his kids or has time do do anything else

    A monthly season ticket is £460 for that trip, thats what I pay a month on my mortgage interest on a £230K morgage in zone 3.

    So, I spend less time commuting and have more money by living in London despite house prices being higher. And with the extra time not commuting I can go night riding at Swinley forest or the North downs, c45 minutes drive away. South Wales trails are a 2 hour drive

    Price is a red herring. This isn't going to work. Young people living at home will happily spend all their wages on alcohol. I know I did 😉

    Elf, you have a deemed contract with whoever supplies the gas and electricity at the day you move in. The change of supplier process takes 4-6 weeks so you will have a small bill from the company supplying on the day you move in.
