What do you drive?


Recommended Posts

It's alright Toastyone, it's a car people love to hate so I've grown accustom to it. It's devilish fast and the torque steer isn't that much of a problem, it's the wheelhop. That can be fixed with the some $60 aftermarket motor mounts.

I have it in storage right now(I'm deployed overseas) and I'm seriously thinking about trading it for a Nissan 350z when I return, just because I've wanted one since they came out.

I have a managing position in Philips, my wife works on her own (don't know the english word) so we can put 2 cars on her company and one is a company car from Philips. It's not that I put down the full amount for those cars myself, now that would be insane. ;)

Please do remember that I'm not 16, but way past the 30 line.

PS. All cars are driven with. I use the Range, my wife the A6 and my son the A3. It's not that they stand in the garage doing nothing.

nice, i'm from belgium too. compared to you we drive in ****.. :p

I still think each car has it's own values. I've seen your cars and I don't tend to call them ****. How old are you to be driving such a car? Everything is relative, I've worked very hard my entire life and it's starting to pay off. ;)

PS. I'm not from Belgium, I'm originally South-African. I just live and work here as SA doesn't support my graduation.

I don't drive one of them, they're my parents and sister's car, but since I have my theory license I'm looking for a E30 M3 myself, but I was only able to find 1 in belgium, wich was Red :pinch:

Theory license ... So do I have to conclude that you're 18~19? In that case, why would you get an M3? You hardly have any experience and you will, trust me, push that gas pedal to its limits. Ah well ...

Ps. How will you get an insurance for this? An M3 is a z-type car therefore you have to be 23+.

we own a big field behind our garden where I have driven all kinds of cars since my 13, so I don't need to learn how to drive actually, but to use the rules when driving. since an M3 is from about '89 It belongs to the 'oldtimer' category and insurance is piece of cake because I will only drive in the weekend and go to college during he week :cool:

It also has a private road(aprox. 1,5km) with tarmac leading to the field. :p

I think James R was refering to the whole having to pay attention to absolutely everything when you're on the road. On private land, you don't have to look out for much. On the roads, reading the traffic and pedestrians constantly does get quite knackering.

Anyhoo, I drive a 1.6 Ford Focus Ghia.

Why thank you, that's exactly what I mean.

my newer vehicle. although i've had it since late august, i just never got around to taking decent pictures of it are here.

My dad signed over his 1978 Honda Supersport. Its my dads prized posession bike and had it since before he knew my mother. My dad signed over this bike because my old motorcycle (a 1979 honda hawk 400cc Twin Carb). Its drivetrain droped on the yellowhead (a highway that goes through my city) in the month of july and i havn't been lucky finding a decent priced motorcycle that runs fine. and he wants a goldwing.

I am taking very good care of it. Its never been droped once, (although i have had one close call). and runs like a dream. If you notice the back seat is maroon, that is because the back seat is from a part bike sitting behind our garage, and we are repairing the original seat to original condition right now. It is a rare bike and I am very privileged to own this bike. Like i said, its my fathers baby, he even has the original bill of sale from 1979.

Here are 3 pictures of it, i feel these are my three best pictures that show off this bike.. I do have more though.

    • I think he means you haven't reviewed previous UFC games. Of course it doesn't matter... Every time you just report on something that involves the President even if just simply what happened you guys usually get accused of being anti-Trump. We live in fun times.
    • So how did you solve the problem? Disabling Secure Boot isn’t a solution.
    • Another devilish issue surrounding these certificates is what can happen with old, unsuspecting PCs that nevertheless have Secure Boot enabled. In my case, it was a Dell with a 3rd-gen Core chip (so about 13 years old). As of the last few weeks, it was suddenly BSOD'g within about 5 minutes of booting. Turns out it was because of MS's "Secure-Boot-Update" scheduled task, which is scheduled to run 5 minutes after login. It's explained in gory detail here (this is not my post, but it was where I found the answer), but the short version is that this legacy system would need fairly elaborate, manual certificate intervention since MS's automatic cert update method cannot work. How to do that is linked late in the thread. https://www.bleepingcomputer.c...od-caused-by-scheduled-task Secure Boot wasn't at all important for this particular PC, so I disabled it to be done with the problem.
    • Winhance 26.06.12 by Razvan Serea Winhance is an open-source Windows enhancement utility designed to help users debloat, optimize, and customize Windows 10 and 11. It provides a user-friendly interface for removing unwanted apps, legacy components, and optional features safely, giving you more control over your system. With Winhance, you can improve performance, reduce clutter, and enhance privacy without the need for a clean install. Beyond basic debloating, Winhance offers extensive optimization tools. Users can tweak power plans, adjust gaming and performance settings, control notifications, and manage Windows Update behavior. Privacy-focused settings allow you to limit telemetry and data collection, while system customization options let you personalize the taskbar, Start menu, Explorer, and Windows themes. Winhance also supports installing or removing software efficiently, including external apps via WinGet integration, streamlining both new setups and daily maintenance. New AI privacy groups have been added for Windows AI, Microsoft Edge AI, and Microsoft Office AI, giving users clearer control over AI-related telemetry and feature usage. In addition, new settings in Gaming & Performance introduce AI taskbar pin toggles, options to remove AI apps, and controls for AI services and scheduled tasks, allowing users to better manage how AI components run in the background and appear in the system. For advanced users and IT professionals, Winhance integrates WIMUtil, a tool for creating custom Windows installation ISOs with automated configuration. You can generate autounattend.xml files, inject drivers, and apply your chosen Winhance settings automatically during installation. Most changes are non-destructive and reversible, with clear explanations in the GUI. Whether you’re optimizing a single PC or managing multiple systems, Winhance delivers a faster, cleaner, and highly personalized Windows experience. The Winhance.Installer.exe includes both Installable and Portable versions during setup. Winhance supports both Windows 10 and Windows 11 64-bit versions. It's regularly updated to ensure compatibility with the latest Windows updates and features. Winhance key features: Debloat Windows – Safely remove unwanted apps, features, and legacy components.

Explorer Customization – Adjust file explorer appearance and functionality. Software Management – Install/remove Windows apps and optional features.

Winhance 26.06.12 changelog: Features Builder Mode — build a Winhance config file or autounattend.xml without changing anything on the PC you're sitting at. Flip the new mode switcher to Builder, set everything the way you want it, and save the result as a Winhance config or an autounattend file ready for deployment on other machines. Sponsors & Supporters page — the exit donation dialog is gone. In its place, an in-app page (heart icon or the More menu) recognizes the businesses and individual supporters who keep Winhance free. It works offline and is fully localized. Change History — Winhance now keeps a receipt of everything it does. ChangeHistory.txt records every setting change (before and after values) and every app install or removal, with clear headers for config imports and bulk actions. Open it from the More menu. Hebrew language support — Winhance is now available in 29 languages. New Explorer customizations: desktop icon visibility toggles, This PC folder visibility, an icon cache size setting, and automatic thumbnail cache cleanup. New "All apps view" setting for the redesigned Windows 11 Start menu, and the Windows 11 system tray icons setting is now a dropdown with more control. App-local UI zoom — press Ctrl +/-/0 or use Ctrl+MouseWheel to scale the whole app, just like a browser. New External Apps: EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, Rockstar Games Launcher, PowerShell, and Helium Browser. Bug Fixes Layouts no longer clip when the Windows text size slider is set above 100%. Accessibility: Narrator now announces setting names on toggles and dropdowns, previously unlabeled buttons are labeled, and progress updates are announced. Silent updates now respect your custom install location instead of reverting to the default. Cancel in Review Mode no longer clears your app selections. OneNote is now detected correctly for Win32 Click-to-Run installs. Clean Start Menu applies more reliably by also writing the group policy path. WinGet errors are no longer silent — error details now show in the terminal output. Fixed a startup crash on older Windows builds caused by a .NET runtime regression. Config import now converts power setting values correctly and no longer re-applies an already-active power plan. Improvements App icons load noticeably faster and cover almost everything now, including legacy capabilities and optional features — they come from a dedicated, checksum-validated icon repository and are fetched in parallel. Software & Apps polish: per-icon tooltips, extra table columns, an app sort dropdown, relocated search, and a cleaner compact view. A warning now appears when the Connected Devices Platform Service is set to Manual or Disabled, since some Windows features depend on it.
