  1. Yes, they do :D Yah I love that song. No problem, it's just a service I provide. Oi. You know her name. As for Sia, she's a great songwriter and I do like her voice but It's not something I could listen to 8 hours a day. I think her new album is fairly decent. :evil: And i like The Weeknd a lot, but that song in particular has been wayyyyyyyy too overplayed (more than Adele and Sia) so I really hate that song. His new single 'In the Night' is great though. My Favourite song of 2015: No, not Adele :cheeky: My Favourite Album of 2015: Yes, Adele :leaves: Favourite Film: Mad Max: Fury Road I think :hmmm: Not really been that impressed by any films in 2015. Spectre was good though.

  3. :hiya: So it's now 2016, but what was your favourite song, album and film released between 1st Jan 2015 and 31st Dec 2015? You get one choice for each! I know a few of you aren't exactly into contemporary music but please try :cheeky: I'll post my answers later :D
  4. The maybach is a tough one, it's starting to age a hell of a lot but the interior, size and brand recognition still make it something worth looking into. I don't usually like aftermarket mods but I'd be tempted to go full football player or rapper and get it riced: http://www.zercustoms.com/news/images/Mercedes/Knight-Luxury-Maybach-57S-1.jpg (perhaps not as much as that) to make it look more modern. I've recently been obsessed with classifieds of Bentley Brooklands, a model that didn't really get much recognition or make many headlines. They've kept their price rather well: Used 2007 Bentley Brooklands for sale in Buckinghamshire | Pistonheads £125,000
  5. That looks like so much fun :D I absolutely love your subaru.
  6. Enjoyed reading your article, however listening to the trolololo man was much more enjoyable :cheeky: My cousin has the samsung VR thing, and even though it's not something I think is worth buying for myself I was very impressed with it as a first foray into VR. Very very interested in the future of VR after trying it out.
  7. The new E-Class is a difficult one to judge, as if we were to judge it by itself ignoring the C and S class I think people would be a lot more positive than they have been. My main gripe is that the E-Class, especially the predecessor to this new one, has always looked like quite a masculine 'muscle' saloon car and it's always been very cool to me for that reason. I don't dislike the new design at all, it's just way too similar to the other two which is a shame. Still a decent car and if I was looking for a car in that sector It'd still be a contender.
  8. On the golf, the VW Golf, a car synonymous with snooooooooreeee zzzzzzzzzzzzz boring, "my wife made me choose this over that much cheaper Seat Leon Cupra or Alfa Giuletta that are so much more interesting" or "my company only gave me the choice between a silver Golf or black Golf" even though they know it's a much better car than its rivals...... I feel it's a design feature a bit too far, it's unnecessary and doesn't really add much to the design (in my eyes it detracts from it), similar to the little fin on the left and right of the front bumpers of Jaguar F-Types that you don't find on the project 7.
  9. Here: There are more examples out there, but surely that's enough for me to ask people, do you think that looks good? I think it looks really cheap and basic If those small pieces of painted bodywork went all the way down I think it would look so much better, but having it finish and creating that plastic gab/chin spoiler really ruins the car for me.
  10. I didn't think they were doing badly at all I just threw that in as a possible explanation as I do think they've been more quiet than normal. I know a fair bit about the company's history however due to the success of the Zonda you would expect the company to either have more resources available when designing its predecessor, have more funds available to do so, or to have learned from its mistakes from its Zonda programme and therefore be a fair bit quicker in the process. Yes Tom, they've met the quota but surely you agree they've been quiet. The Huayra debuted in 2011, time seems to have gone fast but we're in 2016 now, it is no longer new. In relation to the Zonda, yes, the QC might not be 'late', but in relation to other luxury marques it is moving rather slowly. Rumours of a Huayra cabrio have been around for ages, I don't know if they're true but even so, I just expected more from them as a company on the back of their success with the Zonda. It's nothing to do with shouting loud CLR, successful companies of this calibre have often sold all the models of the vehicle they're unveiling, my issue with Pagani is that they haven't been unveiling much at all, not that they're not selling any.
  11. I'm not usually a big fan of aftermarket mods Jacob but plasti-dipping that grille has made such a good difference. That bike is drop dead gorgeous too.
  12. I was under the impression the GT is pretty much a finished design, 99% there or so. I'd be disappointed if the crazy design/exhaust points etc were changed, we've seen on the 918 it's possible and it seems that Ford are aiming for the new GT to be a lot more expensive than the last one was anyway. I haven't seen much on the Huayra BC but i've found it weird how little Pagani have been doing as of recently, they seemed to be pushing out special edition zondas every 2 minutes, was the Huayra a complete failure, has the company had issues/changes on the admin/financial side or have they been focusing on something big for the future?
  13. I don't care about the practical uses for it, from a purely aesthetical point of view I think they look poorly integrated into the rest of the design. The conti GT is a good looking car other than that chin spoiler addition, it's well hidden when choosing darker colours though..
  14. :hiya: Happy new year people. I was wondering what car releases you're looking forward to seeing in 2016, whether it's a completely new unveiling of a car or the start of production of a car that's already been unveiled but isn't on those mean streets yet. Maybe it's something you hope to see being unveiled, a stab in the dark at a brand new model being released for example, without much info to make that guess on. For me: The Aston DB11: this will be a make or break vehicle for the brand I think: The Bugatti Chiron: With rumours of a 290mph topspeed spreading around just yesterday, I'm very excited to see how far they've pushed things: BMW M2: Looking forward to seeing these on the road, they're cute and awesome little things:
  15. Yah, that basic white colour with what I'd imagine are the basic wheels doesn't really do it much justice I guess. I've seen a fair amount of new XC90s on the road and they look very premium indeed, I love them.
  16. People don't seem to buy Volvos for something radical though, they're a safe high quality vehicle with a few quirks that make them a worthy alternative to the usual choice, something radical wouldn't appeal to their target demographic imo. I like the V90 though. I hate this new design feature in front bumpers that seems to be growing in popularity, that lower lip being quite horizontal and separate to the rest of it, If this doesn't make sense i'll edit something up to clarify. It's something you see on new Bentleys, some Golfs and other cars at the moment and I really don't like it :hmmm:
  17. Hey Yunus, welcome to SuperchargeDuck! :hello:
  18. That shouldn't be an issue for you. :cheeese: Happy new years everyone, I hope everyone has a great year etc :D
  19. President Barack Obama - Just Tell Him Youre the President - Episode - Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee by Jerry Seinfeld Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee has a rather special guest on this episode :D It's a good ep.
  20. :hmmm: I never thought of you as the tattoo-getting type tbh Andai, that's not me taking the mick or thinking badly of you tho, but people change etc. My plan for 2016? Continue being fabulous.
  21. [media=twitter]680004382260379648[/media] trollololololol
  22. It is the sun afterall, probs not worth listening to at all though other places are covering it as being a done deal and that it's confirmed.....? Dunno
  23. "TOPGEAR IN TURMOIL" (Yes, because JC punching a member of the team doesn't count as enough turmoil, picking 2 huge names in the car world IS turmoil however). The Sun really is the lowest of the low when it comes to journalism, jesus christ. The two people in question are Chris Harris, who with over 100k twitter followers, is without a doubt, not an 'unknown', and Sabine Schmitz who has appeared on Topgear multiple times and has always been a popular fan-favourite. I thought Chris Evans came out saying they weren't going to be doing the traditional '3 presenter' format for the new Top Gear, but if these two 'unknowns' are the people they choose to do small segments etc or even if they are a full presenter person then I think it's a promising sign. With the start date for the new series being given as May 2016, they definitely need to get a move on with filming so I wouldn't be surprised if we get a confirmation of any other hosts very soon so they don't have to hide and can get on with the production side of things.
  24. Yup, this car needs revolution, note evolution. My neighbour has a brand new 65' TTS Roadster in that gorgeous Daytona Grey, and it makes that SLC43 look deformed.
