Thanks for the hi res pic, I'm assuming these are all Premium cars..?

Premium MX5 NA? Yes please *hopes*

Had the fortune of spotting one of these on the M25 last week, it's not in production yet apparently and had VP11 written on the side... does anyone know about this car? Is this a prototype/test car? Or Jenson going for a Sunday drive?

Stiggie, pit a lap later than he tells you to as a temporary fix.

I think Crazy Taxi is one of the Dreamcast "ports" (I think they actually run in an emulator) they're bringing to PSN.

Good magazine, Issu.com is an atrocity though. For a site designed to display magazines, it fails really badly at it.

You just brightened up my day! Well done, good chap.

Cheers TehPaws, but it's not that one...

Sounds like the Paramore girl or something but she's busy making crappy rap music so I guess it's not her...

Bit of a random question here but I'm hoping someone will know!

I've been hearing a cover of Radiohead's "Creep" on the radio (Capital FM) recently with female vocals, quite a "rocky" cover... but I can't find out who it's by!

If anyone knows I'd be hugely grateful!

F1 2010.

, that's why they did the crappy F1 2009 game for the Wii and spent a big longer working on this one.

I thought F1 2009 was made by Sumo Digital?

As for the fake AI times thing, would it have been so hard to port the AI from GRID...?

Codies are going down in my estimations... First they ruin Flashpoint by adding silly time limits to every level so you couldn't approach things your own way, now this...

**** that, some chlamidya test people give out free cinema tickets! Wouldn't do it for anything less

Got my PS3 copy through today, it's a good game and looks less blingy than GRID/DIRT2. The physics seem to make sense and they're not over-dramatic like in GRID - that understeer on entry and oversteer on exit has gone.

The penalties are over sensitive but the quality of racing is up to Codies' usual standard and the Flashback is a lifesaver.

Didn't try with the DFGT because, well, it's a fun Codies game not a sim.

Haha, so that's why Bob was asking oval related questions the past few months!

A NASCAR game by Eutechnyx should be awesome. Although Supercar Challenge was disappointing...

All the Puma fans seem to love those propeller wheels... Never saw the appeal myself, always preferred the 9(?)-spoke ones mine had.

I did think about getting "Mazda" etc put there, but with something like that you may as well save your money and leave it... I think it has to be something "special" and worth the extra. Hence the Kanji stuff I chose... As long as it's not too expensive!

"Bitches an' Bling"

Driver headrest says "Bling", passenger says "Bitch"? Good idea... j/k

If you do the manufacturers logo or the car name though it it can't turn out too awful. A silhouette could be awsome (as far as embroidered headrests go).

I was thinking "Jinba Ittai" and my name in Kanji or something as it's an MX5... Acceptable (in the 80s)? At least then the new owner could say the Japanese text was of his name...

Now you mention it, a silhouette would be cool...

Thought I'd throw this one out to the LFS Forum!

I'm about to get an interior retrim for my car, and the trimmer offers a headrest embroidery service... Which I'm considering in a half serious way...

So just for a laugh, would you have this? And what would it say?

When you do find out what caused it, tell me so I can make sure the same thing doesn't happen to my '5!

Not enough power. Really think about this one.

It must be really different over here. I drive a 70bhp car at the moment and am still quicker than most traffic, as most other cars are just as slow and they don't drive theirs as hard!

Lack of rigidity and soft suspension on a class leading roadster? I'd hate to see what its competitors are like

Overall, would you consider it a good choice?

Do i smell a mid life crisis car in the works?

Mid life?? I hope to live past 42, thank you! And the girls love a hairdresser... right??

It would be a Mk3 MR2 I'm looking at, I can't seem to find out much about it apart from "it's good until it kills you". So still leaning towards the MX...

Was rather hoping for Tristan to jump in on this thread but I'll have to PM him I guess

Sooo, in the next couple of months I'm going to be looking for a RWD convertible...

My budget is upto £4k (depends how much I get for the Aygo), so my choices seem to be a Mk1/early Mk2 MX5 (has been my dream car for a while) or an MR2 and I can't really decide.

I hear the MX5 is more predictable and fun handling-wise but both are pretty much perfect in "normal" driving. Thing is if I did get an MX5 I'd probably want a Mk1 and finding a decent one with an airbag and leather seats isn't going to be easy...

Opinions please!

(PS: Leaning towards the MX5 as it seems more happy to go sideways without piling into a tree...)

Sooo.... any news on the UK collector's edition?

Damn you, I'm going to be up all night playing Mario All-Stars now...

Having said that, I'd happily move to Cardiff tomorrow...
