2005 Renault Modus 1.4
19,000 miles, with optional boot chute
Although the clutch is on the way out (shouldn't really be @ 19,000 miles, but maybe the previous owner was a clutch riding granny) :sadbanana

If you can't get any enjoyment from having a close, competitive race online against other people, then LFS is not the game for you 
Is that a while you wait on your driveway job or a take the wheels away to the workshop job?
If you want a higher quality finish I'd recommend the latter, but if you find a reputable company (i.e. not some bodger) they should still do a reasonably good job with the equipment in the back of their van.

Every league/event has to start somewhere. Just check out the 2008 Kyoto 250 replay for epic lolz. Even after about 2 or 3 total restarts there were still many accidents of truly epic proportions.
1) You have to guess the previous picture correctly before posting a picture
2) It is not hard to guess the car if the name of it is in the link :doh:

Probably helped that I used Photoshop this time as opposed to Paint.NET (the latter is rather lacking in functionality/features in some areas)
No, but this car is from the same era and would probably have been a competitor to the Opel Kapitan 
Due to my computer's position in the house in relation to the wireless access point, my connection speed is over three times slower
Gonna get some powerline adapters soon though
Yeah, as dynofiend says, that's just a limitation of how LFS applies textures to the car.
But when you're driving the car the driver mostly covers up that area, so you don't see it anyway unless you look at the model in the CMX Viewer.

Improved High Res LX Interior
Made a quick LX interior today, after deciding my previous MG one was a bit naff, and the default one didn't really cut it in terms of quality.
This interior gives you a new leather dashboard, side panels, centre console, seats and gear lever gator, new high resolution (and coloured) switches as well as new carpets.
Because of the LX Edition badges on the carpets and dashboard I have done right hand drive and left hand drive versions so the badges appear correctly (not flipped).
The following files are included
LX_Interior2.dds
LX_Seat.dds
gator.dds
Extract files and place in LFS/data/dds - back up your original files first!

It's not a Midget of any sort
It does look very similar to a C-Type, but it's a longer car and the back is more rounded.
I'm wondering if my picture doesn't give enough clues away to distinguish it from a C-Type :/
EDIT: Bigger clue attached

You're close but you'll need to be more specific than that
I'm not a fan of Daytona MK myself, and it can be pretty dodgy in the wet at times. I've been there about 7 times now and not once have I driven that track in the dry 
I'm doing DMAX at the moment, and whilst it's perhaps not the most perfect or best organised rental kart championship there is, it's been good fun. The guys running it are always polite and helpful, and the Daytona CEO, Jim Graham is always standing in the centre of the track coordinating proceedings and generally watching out for any bad behaviour on track. Last round was at Whilton Mill... realised that I was consistently faster round the track than the championship leader (who is generally pretty rapid), which was interesting.
You'll get faster with more time driving the karts. I found the first few times I ever did it I was concentrating more on improving my control of the kart rather than trying to race with anybody, so where I finished was essentially a lucky dip

At least if you fill up your taskbar you're not ruining a nice picture
But yes, I could probably get away with a few less shortcuts there
No icon shall dare to be positioned upon my desktop background
