What do you drive?


Recommended Posts

07 Hyundai Accent Hatch 5 Speed. 30 mpg city.

I don't have a picture of my actual car but here is the model. Also mine is white. :x All I added was a K&N air filter.

Future upgrades if I ever get some cash will be a single 10" sub from JL audio and a short shifter. Not looking to pour a insane amount of money into this little guy. Kinda pointless. If I did have the extra cash I would just upgrade to the Genesis.

Hyundai's quality is damn good.

The inside is plain and simple. I could care less for all the gadgets car's have now days.

Nice Camaro :D

oh, and the white volvo is also nice, I was looking for a 850R but it's so hard to find a well maintained one :(

Thank for you for your comment.

On a Volvo Forum there is some guys from Belgium who has just bought a used T5 pretty cheaply.

The "R" has more of a "special" thing going on but realistically its nothing more over a top spec T5 apart from the front valance, wheels and a 30-second overboost feature, slightly different seats etc...

Yeah the T5 is definitely the best engine for the Volvo estates out there.

Here's what I drive, shared. Not my picture :p

07 Reg (Early 2007)

Automatic (So easy to drive, I prefer Manuals though)

A while back when people were posting bike pictures I meant to post mine. I cleaned up a bit after an epic trip through Alberta/BC for a business meeting and snapped a few bug-free pictures.

Modifications include new pistons, rods, bigger-bore, valves/springs, port/polish/balance, ignition control unit, power commander, exhaust servo removal, quick shift kit, ohlins rear suspension, intake stacks/filters/etc, titanium exhaust from headers to tailpipe, full carbon fibre body/mirrors/fenders, magnesium rims, minor changes to gearing (3-5th are shorter than stock), -1/+1, -1/+2 and +2/-4 sprockets + chains (I'm running -1/+1 now), corsa 3s, and handful of things that don't actually make you go faster (lights, wind screen, etc). I also stripped a good 15-20kg of "useless" baggage that serves no purpose but to make you heaver. I make plenty of horse power but torque leaves a bit to be desired. On the street you can fake it by swapping sprockets and chain but on the highway/track I can tell it needs "a little something more".

I've got carbon fibre clutch/case cover and braided steal lines in the garage, I just haven't had the time or motivation to install them. I also need to remove the pillion pegs again: I had them on so my ex-girlfriend could ride on the back. I plan to toss on brembo rotors/master cylinders/callipers when this season's over and If I can find a good place to mount a bottle I might bolt nitrous on just to look cool in front of coffee shops. ;)

I can't justify the cost of a carbon fibre single-sided swing arm or the super sport front suspension right now.

Those are the only two changes I'd really like to make.

My commute to work is more-or-less a straight line. There's no really good left hand corners so I have a giant chicken stripe on the left side of my tire. I'm tempted to get down there with a wood-rasp so I don't look like a backward NASCAR refugee.

Edited by evn.
evn, are those rear foot rests stock or mods? Would love to know where you bought them.

Those are LighTech's World Super Bike rear sets. I ordered mine from another site (PM for details, I just don't want to spam) -- they were about $450 USD including next-day shipping. The rod that links clutch to the transmission is chrome so I just blacked it out with a couple coats of heat-proof paint.

Buy the fully adjustable ones: they're 10x more comfortable than the fixed ones that bikes come stock with.

    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
