  1. Hey Mark, Welcome to TDU-C :)
  2. The dad wedding one sounds rather interesting :lol: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/singles/ That's what i was talking about, If no one else listens to it then I can do without :)
  3. Great Idea, Anything that's in the charts currently suits me to be honest.
  4. Evening Andy, Welcome to TDU-C :)
  5. It looks Great Tool, Very nice work :)
  6. Nugget anyone? :lol:
  7. I had the app but wasn't sure how it worked, It's working now and is so much easier than using safari - Thanks :) Posted with TouchBB on my iPhone
  8. Welcome to TDU-C, Nice introduction, Good list of cars :)
  9. Hey there Scott, Welcome to TDU-C :)
  10. This is probably the first time that i've loved every Entry, They're all good ideas and look great. Good work everyone :) My vote goes to Chika, His entry stood out for me.
  11. It looks great, Good work Diablo :) I'm loving the new curves, Logo and imagesets. :) The forum isn't loading to fast on my iphone this morning But it's probably no got anything to with the new updates.
  12. :yay: It's good to have you back, the "show yourself" thread has been rather dead without you ;) :P
  13. I think it's a bit late for stating what islands would be the best for TDU2, I'd imagine the game is nearly finished, And judging by the pictures they chose Ibiza, And i'm more than happy with that decision, should be great :)
  14. I wouldn't be too bothered if Ferrari Weren't in game, I'd quite like the 458, but that's pretty much it, The california is rather suited to this kind of game, but I'm not a huge fan, So I wouldn't be disapointed if they pulled out because of damage. As for the pictures of Ibiza, the size comparison etc in this thread - Thanks, they were a great help in picturing what TDU2 will look like, and :drool: Should be amazing.
  15. A few more cars, I'll do the Fabia vRS for you maddog. Skoda Fabia vRS: More Pictures It isn't an ugly car, But I don't think its pretty either, I think it's rather forgettable. The rear diffuser is rather enthusiastic. The Combi looks a lot better, With the same colour roof and black wheels. It's rather quick though with 178bhp's helping it get to 60 in 7.3 seconds, and a top speed of 140mph. Renault Clio Gordini: More Pictures I think everyone in Geneva has caught Hot Hatch Fever, Every other car is a hot hatch, But I have to say this clio is rather :drool: It's probably the first clio of the recent facelift that I like. It comes with the same 198bhp engine, but you'll look so much better with the new bumper, diffuser and paint job. Ferrari F99 GTO: More Pictures Another stripped out light weight version of the Ferrari F99, Although I rather like this one - I love the dramatic bodykit. No Official figures are out yet, but I'd expect 650bhp+, and with a weight south of 1650kg, It should be seriously fast. King Saud Gazal-1: More Pictures It's not the prettiest car (Understatement I know), But I still think it's rather great simply for the fact the car was a university project by a class of students, they've done a rather good job for a bunch of students I think, They've just lacked in the design department. And thanks twm :)
  16. I agree with you with 90% of that Nick, But I strongly believe the new cayenne is a huuuugeee improvement. And here's a few more cars: Ford Focus Estate/Wagon: I love it, But I imagine this will be the top of the range Titanium X version - So without the tinted windows and alloys (which are :drool:) it would still be a decent looking car, A big improvement on the old focus In my opinion, as the shape looks natural. Bertone Alfa Romeo Pandion: More Pictures Take a look Pininfarina - That is how an Alfa Romeo Concept should look like, and we can pronounce the name also this time. :drool: That's just stunning, The door hinge is certainly an interesting Idea, It's huge - You couldn't park in a multi-story car park, or under a low bridge could you? Even so, It's very cool, Probably my favourite Concept of the show so far. And for you nick: Koenigsegg Agera: More Pictures Video: It's starting to grow on me, I think it's a lot better looking than the previous CCX's, but even so I'd still like to see an entirely new car. Opel/Vauxhell Flextreme GT/E More Pictures Another Hybrid car, although I do like the design of this one quite a lot. It's powered by a 158hp Electric motor, and a charging motor that has 70bhp. Top speed is estimates at 125mph, with a 0-62 mph sprint time of around nine seconds. Is this the next design route for the insignia? Which is fairly new isn't it? :S Even so, Thumbs up to open/VX.
  17. Hey there flex, Welcome to TDU-C :) If you need help with anything, give me a shout.
  18. Jaguar XKR: More Pictures Loving the new bumper - And the new performance figures, Top speed is now 174mph, 19mph more than the old one, with 503bhp also. The new XKR also comes with 2 optional packs: - The speed back (£3500) helps with stabillity at high speeds, using new differential aids. -The Black pack (£500) comes with glossy black 20" rims, new stitching and glossy black trim around the car. Gumpert Apollo S: Hold onto your seat, as the new Apollo now comes with 750bhp :eek: that's a massive 50bhp more than the old one. That's not all that has changed, theres now LED's, new rear flaps and quicker gear shifts - This car should easily be able to beat the old car's time around the 'ring, I can't wait to see it do so :) Aston Martin Cygnet: I think this is going to be a Marmite car, You either Love it or you Hate it. I don't mind it as the whole idea being the cygnet is that only owners of other astons can buy it, so they have a car for going around the city etc - As long as it stays like that I'm fine with it, The car costs £50,000 and comes with a completely different exterior and interior to that of the IQ which it is based on, so I quite like it. Fiat 500C Abarth: I don't like it, at all. The paint job makes it look a bit fat, it's a 500C - So rather girly, and I just love the essesse (spelling?) version of normal 500 Abarth. It has 138bhp and a top speed of 127, with a 0-62 time of 7.9 Seconds. Abarth Punto Evo: Now that's more like it :drool: I'm loving the body kit and wheels, and the performance figures, 161bhp, a top speed of 133mph and a 0-62 time of 7.5 seconds. *Drum Roll* *more suspense* *Drum roll again*........... The Sbarro Autobau Concept!: Now would be a good time to pick your jaws up off of the ground :P I have absolutely no Idea what this car is about, but even so, WOW xD
  19. I'm surprised no one has made a thread about this already, There's quite a few new cars this year at geneva. Porsche 918 Spyder (Concept): More Pictures This is the first porsche I like in quite a while, The performance figures sound brilliant for a car that is meant to achieve 74 MPG, and is a hybrid. I think it'll be a great addition to the porsche lineup, as the carrera GT is starting to get old - I'm crossing my fingers that this gets made! Peugeot SR1 (concept): More Pictures All of pug's recent cars have been rather ugly in my opinion, so it's good to see them changing their design route - This car is just :drool: I hope this makes production, and if it does, let's hope it doesn't change too much. Mansory Rolls Royce Ghost: (Open Spoiler at your own discretion!) UAE has wrecked yet another car, Eugh, just plain Eugh, why oh why........ 2011 Lotus Elise: More Pictures I'm loving the new bumper and headlights, I wasn't a huge fan of the way Elise's used to look, So in my opinion this is a huge improvement. Citroen DS3 Racing: More Pictures I'm not a huge fan of the coloured grille and wheels, but apart from that this is rather wow, Probably one of my favourite Hot hatches - JCW's Cooper better watch out, although i'm not sure which one of the two i'd choose. Audi A1 and A1 E-Tron Concept: More Pictures I quite like the aggressive look of the A1, It's definitely good competition for the mini cooper etc - It's small, looks good, brilliant build quality and has good MPG (62 MPG iirc) - Not sure how much it will cost though, Let's hope not too much more expensive than it's competitors. There will most likely be an S1 version in the future, So I can't wait for that. Mercedes-Benz F 800 Style Concept: More Pictures The First thing that pops into my head is that the shape of the front looks rather like that of the new volvos. I think it looks rather aggressive and good looking - The new CLS will most likely look something like this (a lot more toned down I'd imagine) So it should be a lot more sportier than the previous CLS. Ferrari 599 HY-KERS: I'm not a huge fan of the paint, but other than that I think it's a great concept, Should be interesting to see whether Hybrid Supercars can keep up to the same standard as other supercars. 2011 VW Toureg: More Pictures I love the new front bumper and grille, Everything looks a lot smoother and better looking In my opinion. They've changed more than the looks of the car, this car is a lot lighter than the previous one, and it'll be cheaper too, due to the fact they've removed some of the 4x4 equipment also. Overall I think this is a great update to the toureg, which is one of my favourite SUV's. Citroen SurVolt Concept: More pictures This is a cross between 2 of Citroens most recent Concepts, the GTbyCitroen and the Revolte - So yes, it's another Hybrid Supercar conept (A common theme this year eh?) No info on performance I don't think, I also think the GT is much better looking, but even so, a hybrid version should be interesting :) 2011 Porsche Cayenne: More Pictures I think this looks sooooo much better than the old cayenne, I did like the old cayenne but lets face it, It wasn't the best looker out there, It didn't look right with the 911 front, but it looks 100 x better with the panamera style headlights and bumper in my opinion. There is also a hybrid cayenne - which should get you 23% better MPG. Lexus CT 200h: More Pictures Yet another premium Family hatch back, although I think this is one of the better looking hatches, It looks sporty and quite a lot better than a few previous Lexus's (Lexi?) As you can tell by the name, this is another hybrid (80% of the cars are this year) So you can expect good MPG etc, so overall a rather nice family car. Alfa Romeo 2uettottanta concept by Pininfarina More Pictures And the award for the easiest car name to pronounce goes to..... I'm not sure about this car, It's an alfa by pinifarina, a duo that should make me drool, but i'm not, is this going to be another marmite car? Porsche 911 GT3 R Hybrid: I'm getting bored of the word hybrid now, honeslty. A hybrid race car though, rather interesting: Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport in carbon fiber: You didn't honestly think there would be a motorshow where you didn't find a special edition veyron did you? If so you were wrong. Luckily this one isn't as revolting as the majority of it's brothers and sisters. Pagani Zonda Tricolore:More Pictures I thought the Zonda Cinque was the last special edition zonda, but I was wrong, although I'm happy to admit that as this is just stunning :drool: Audi RS5: More Pictures :drool: :drool: The M3 arrival has arrived, and it's about time, although by the looks of it, it was well worth the wait. Hispano Suiza More Pictures It's erm, Very unique looking isn't it :confused: It's also rather fast, look at the stats: If only it was better looking. Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera: More pictures Yes please :drool: That's just stunning, Much better than the old gallardo superleggera In my opinion. And quite a bit faster too: All the images and performance stats are from Autoblog I take back what I said at the start of this thread, I'm no longer surprised no one made a thread regarding Geneva 2010, as this took me 2 hours to make :lol: I got rather carried away I think.
  20. I like the sound of that :D That's great news, Something we've been waiting for years to hear :)
  21. *humph* Be like that then :p

  22. Hey there and welcome to TDU-C :)
  23. Nice Theme Tim, I Think I'll do a police caliber :)
