He sounds like a robot, or like life itself is just ebbing away from him.
I got the same feeling everytime Michael Fish used to come on and read the weather forecast. By the time he'd finished I'd completely forgotten what he'd just said.

Even though I watch the odd one, I just don't get the fascination with him. As you say, he just doesn't sound engaging at all... and I hate the whole Berry/TRL/Motech scene thing that they all got going on. Most of it is content for contents sake (that's Youtube money for you) with very little... content.

When I went to order my G29, I was told I should check out his videos. I think my face must have given away that it was the wrong thing to say to me.

I mean, if you can sit through this kind of drivel - https://youtu.be/twWcZGW3lSU?t=388 (6m 28) - you are a better man than me.

    Nah, not the cost (but wouldn’t pay that even if I did like them) just don’t particularly like the look of them. I also can’t off the top of my head think of any ACS wheels I like.

    I’d have the ones on SARS car any day over the, but possibly in a different colour to suit my car better, the bronze goes really well with the red, not so sure about with the blue

      I will retract that statement then Dan as I do like your wheels, and have told you that in person :thumbsup:

        Yeah, they're type 8s. Originally they were diamond cut as shown in the pic on the Mrs' old Zed. I got em cheap because they were in need of a serious refurb, which I had done.

        The problem with any diamond cut alloys is once you've had them refurbished (as the process involves taking a layer off the top) they can go again unless you pay top dollar for the refurb. I kept them for my roadster when we sold that car and had them powder coated to what you saw last time we met. :thumbsup:
