yeah its specific to currys, dixons and pc world :confused:

Hmm, as per above post, check out avforums, as i'm not sure if your insurance company will swap it for a any use vouher, i'm sure people on there have done it.

Otherwise LG 42LG6000 is very good, but its LCD, but it impressed me.

Your best bet is to go to store and have a look, and decide on what you like,
you dont have to by immediatley, so take time to view, from a distance that you would normally view from also.

well it was an anything happens insurance thing from currys themselves, paid £10 a month and even if you kicked it you could get a replacement, which was useful when i broke it 2 weeks after buying it :doh:
had it about 2 years now, bought it for about £1500 then but dont know what the market price is for it now its an LG 42PX5D

Think I'm going to go for the Panasonic TH42PZ80B 42" HD Ready 1080p :)

checked the voucher and it doesnt say anything about what tv i had before or whether i am limited to the same brand so hopefully should be ok, its an extra £100 but from what ive read should be better than the lg :)

opinions please :)
Been thinking about going bt for a while prob eliminator, but i want to make sure i've got the car at a safe enough level first handling wise, i think my 312mm brakes are good enough stopping power but i reckon ive got to get some arbs and engine mounts... anything else apart from diff i should think about? Would love a diff but its going to be too much on the budget at the moment, my sachs clutch is only 5k old but if it gives up the ghost with the extra torque i defo consider a diff.

arbs - fronts/back/both?
engine mounts - which ones

I've fitted the Blackforest ones, stage 1 on mine, theyre pretty harsh and iwouldnt reccomend them for a daily drive imo. I've fgot a rear ARB fitted like tom and thats made a massive difference. Front helps but i reckon the rear does the most.

Yeah the rear ARB does a great job.

As per Phil, neither of us have got to fit our front arb's yet, but the rear is great.

Matt has though, and Davidol got out of his car with a huge smile, and was well impressed with the difference the ARB's made, but then he went gay and bought a family wagon.

Alright mate, hows things? Nearly 2 years aint it, gotta be around there surely? Cars sound anyway, few little changes but aint changed much to be honest rolling on Keskin kt4s now though. Only Jus touched 53k so aint hardly done any millage either!!!

Dan were you in Halfords in Newport the other day?

If so it was me, in the blue ibiza, had to leave though, as i was on lunch.

Car looked lovely on those wheels mate.
