Just realised this bag of crap counts
Needed a car for a few days to get around in whilst mine was away for some work. Now I have my car back I'm not sure what to do with the shed. Jacked it up over the weekend and the underside seems solid. Skirts are bonded on to the front and rear wings though.
I am looking at that p.o.s and thinking at the right money that could be good for autotesting.Needed a car for a few days to get around in whilst mine was away for some work.

Hints as to what it is might be nice https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1227115988/ne...
In the spirit of the thread I already have various universal remotes including a Sony Android tablet which I bought purely as it was supposed to make a good remote, it didn't
Which one would you think the best is?
$219 brain and remote
$319 brain and 2 remotes
$419 2 brains and 2 remotes
I can't work out what 2 brains does that 1 can't if with 1 you can do multiple rooms anyway?
(Other than having multiple properties and having one in each)

It's $219, which is approximately £150. A Logitech Harmony Ultimate is £160. The Neeo does way more than the Logitech, and it looks nicer too.
The reason it looks so B&O is that one of the founders worked at B&O.

Bit cheaper too.

I think you are over thinking things. I just bought the one that looked coolest. I can see that one brain will do multiple rooms for everything bar IR control which will require a brain per room.
This.You only need a second brain if you need IR in different rooms. The other protocols are RF so should work within a moderate range. You could use a single remote to control both brains, or get a second remote for the second room.
I've ordered the Black Cat edition.

Front bumper could be bonded onto original bumper too, can't see the rear.DO N0T try and remove them, as i'm sure you have realised it will be an absolute pig of a job. You will need new front and rear bumpers, and the side of the car will look like sh@t !!
I had what looks like the same bodykit on mine.

Quick heads up - Microsoft have discounted their HP Stream 7" Signature Edition tablet to £74.99 from £99.99. Just after Christmas, these were in the sale at £79.99 so this is a cracking buy: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msuk/en_GB/pdp...
I bought one in the after Christmas sale (for £74.99) and it is an amazing bit of kit for such a small price. Full windows 8.1 and you can load any windows compatible software on there...Does anyone have any recommendations on a suitable Bluetooth keyboard for it? Preferably one that incorporates a case and turns it into a mini laptop.

Has anyone seen any GOOD earphones (NOT headphones) in the Amazon sale?
I got some Amazon vouchers for Christmas and I need some earphones.
These are half price and have a ton of good reviews on Amazon, everyone ignored them on my Xmas Amazon wishlist so I can't offer any first hand experience I got some Amazon vouchers for Christmas and I need some earphones.

They really are excellent for £30

I use these now as they don't tangle and sound good.

ummm, I got some of those wooden in ear headphones from richersounds, but one of them stopped working so I got a refund. They were around £10. The problem with them is the cord, it's like string and constantly tangles.

And my new totally unneeded floor lamp in the background - I think it looks a bit like a death ray machine, so it gets extra nerd points
Oh I like that!Edit: I like the delivery options less though. £15 delivery and dispatched "within 4 - 5 weeks".

I remember you worrying about getting the GTI 180 whilst you still had the GTI on the nightshift thread bloody years ago. The fact that you now have 5 pugs is bloody brilliant.
Also love the look of those old 406 Coupes, still look lovely now.
My mum doesn't know about this one yet... I've had it since Thursday haha. Also love the look of those old 406 Coupes, still look lovely now.
I once had three silver mk2 Golf Gtis, one was the daily, one a track car, one a parts car. Two were parked up the road at my local pub (where my mum worked) but she only ever thought I had one car until two were on the drive at the same time
