    I didn't like the Civic in this shape to begin with, a bit like how much I hate the look of the new Renault Clio.

    No problem for me :p A song from an album that I like to listen to in the Winter: "I hear your silent cry lost in the rainy night. No reason to live for, one reason to die for"

    I bought and donated some. Reminds me of SpinTires which I also like, hoping SpinTires comes to something as well.

    I do like the damage model. I scraped the side of my truck against a wall at speed, and instead of just smashing the whole car up and going over the top like usual, it just proceeded to pull back most of my front quarter panel so it was bent in the wrong direction and stopping my door from opening :p Anyone paid for the Alpha access yet?

    Even if the storyline is rubbish, I just can't wait to go off-roading in this game. Would also be fun if they brought towing back as well, a long train of tow trucks flying off the top of the mountain just like in San Andreas, if you could get to the top without them flying all over the place. Good times.

    I raise you my dashboard that points everywhere, including the floor: 306 HDI Dturbo by GTAMADDOG, on Flickr

    I almost posted some cross-genre Metal/Techno infusion, but I really like the sound of this at the moment

    Still trying to persuade my mum to get a MK7 GT TDI with 'Serron' alloy wheels in Pacific Blue or Tornado Red. She's still recovering from her operation though, so I won't push her.. too much :p

    Holiday form filled in, going to hand it in tomorrow. Bring on GTA week.
  10. GTAMADDOG
    Clear makes it look fresher in my opinion. Pretty sure some cars over here have smoked side-indicators (grey-ish) as standard, but I'd still go for clear. De-tango ftw.
  11. GTAMADDOG
    Haven't ordered it yet, but I'll probably order it for the PS3. Free multi-player and all that. Maybe I'll order it now. Think I'll book the week off work as well as it's the week after my birthday, so massive GTA session it is then :p Only a couple of months to go now.

    I think I might buy some CarPro TRIX Iron & Tar remover tomorrow. I was washing the car today and more and more tar spots seem to be popping up on the bottom half of the car which I find annoying because I'm weird and like to think I could eat food off the paintwork on my car. Not sure if I need another clay bar as well, so I may get one of those. I may get a subtle smelling air-freshener and some interior cleaning products if my steam cleaning plan doesn't work tomorrow. Luckily I've got everything else needed for making the car spotless again so there's not much money to be spent. Still tempted to get the car re-mapped, but with the odometer currently sat on 142,000 miles I don't know if that would be good for the clutch.

    Couldn't possibly rest my knee on the front wing, think of the possible scratches that could cause :p I'll have to get my tripod out and set up the camera on delay so I can show my best side. My engine bay on the other hand is just a load of plastic covers :p

    I acquired (for free, again) a new computer desk. It's a desk that was made from a personally selected desk-top and legs (from Ikea) rather than a mass-made unit. I have to downgrade in desk size a bit as my PC now has to go in my room and my current desk, as much as I like it, is too big for my room. As long as I can fit everything that's on my current desk on the new one, with space for the G25 when I want to use it, I'll be fine with it. I've acquired two good desks now without spending a penny, gotta love freebies. I'll post a picture of the new one when I've actually got it assembled which might be on Sunday.

    I've not really been on since the server crashed/got reset, plus my motivation was for the videos, but as I haven't been able to do any videos for a while I've not been on. Should get chance to do a few videos over the next couple of weeks so I might be online during that time. I tell a lie, I was on at the weekend trying to do a quick update video, but my mic was playing up at the time. Kind of ran out of ideas, completely.

    Sportrac 5s are now on the car, here's a photo of them before they went on the car as I didn't get a photo when I mentioned them before: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/IMG_0346_zps6d8022ed.jpg Meanwhile, the garage seems to be stockpiling wheels and tyres at an alarming rate.. http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/1_zps33d8b123.jpg Luckily four of those are the old wheels and tyres from my dads Scenic, so I'm not that bad, although two more of mine are out of shot :/

    Got the ditch-finder tyres off the wheels I wanted to put back on the car and put my new Vredestein Sportrac 5s on. Unfortunately it's hot outside and I have no garage space to be able to work in properly so I may have to hold off putting the wheels on the car for a while. Heat is a major cba-mood inducing problem with me :p

    Not so bad for me as it has been for my dad. He was driving the Megane Scenic home from work, got about half way home and he had to dip the clutch to navigate a junction. As soon as he pressed the clutch the engine started running on slightly (4000RPM), he let the clutch out to bring the revs back down and the car seemed to carry on running fine again, until he noticed he had no turbo and a nasty rattling noise was being emitted from the engine. Instead of parking up where he was he decided to see how far he could get with the engine shut off, he was at the top of a large hill which gradually goes down rather than one steep gradient. He somehow managed to do about three miles using the handbrake to slow him down as the brakes were inoperative. He decided to park the car up just up the road from a main road and it's still sat there now. Apparently no clouds of smoke and there's no oil splattered around the engine bay, but as it's more than likely turbo and engine failure after the rattling would suggest metal being ingested it's not been run since. Belongings collected this evening, and as my dad is fed up with the thing the scrap man is probably collecting it in the next day or so when it will meet thy maker.

    THE game of the year. They don't have to show anything else, my mind is made up.

    I've been buying some stuff for a change. Crap phone photographs, couldn't be bothered with the proper camera. Sachs Shock Absorbers and Springs for the front of the car: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/IMG_0345_zpscc880247.jpg http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/IMG_0344_zpsddf8c14e.jpg Suspension mounts: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/IMG_0342_zps3f5b8434.jpg Also bought new oil and filters ready for a service: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/IMG_0343_zps4194260a.jpg It's all OEM replacement parts, no lowering or anything. Yesterday I bought two Vredestein Sportrac 5s to go on the front so I can put the Hankooks on the back and no longer have to look at two ditch-finders on the rear. The drop links I bought earlier on in the year are still waiting to go on. Once all of that is sorted she should be handling like a good 'un.

    Still looking at E46s, but I've been looking for a year now and not found one that I've totally liked. With the E90 I'm not so bothered about interior/exterior colours, I'd only really want leather and possibly sat-nav as must haves. I'd still love blue with lemon leather though :p
  22. GTAMADDOG
    That doesn't help my current problem of looking at E90 325/330ds to buy. I will get a new(er) car one day :p
  23. GTAMADDOG
    Ahh, thanks very much. Just gotta work out why my block breakers don't want to break blocks now. They're set up exactly the same as before..
  24. GTAMADDOG
    Holy.. I got nuked bad in the reset. My red-matter had disappeared, my cobblestone generator has lost it's block-breakers and my diamond chest full of diamonds and other quite tasty stuff has gone as well. Strangely all of my buildings are intact though. Also lost the Klein Star that Ryzza gave me, but I've retained the Rending Gale which is odd.

    I'll try and visit the server at some point tomorrow, it's definitely been a couple of weeks since I was last on there. I've barely touched the PC the last couple of weeks. That's sort of to do with The Last of Us and mainly because I was pretty fed up.
