Herself was looking at the diesel lately and I was well impressed with it, didn't feel small at all. I'd imagine the 1.4 in something that light would have decent poke.

Very much, lots of low down torque, felt very planted and comfortable at motorway speeds and responded well to being revved.

I stuck four new tyres on my other car earlier, I went for Potenzas and got them for 120 a corner fitted which wasn't bad. A polish buddy from another forum is downloading V10 maps for my RNS 510 too.

I was enjoying all that talk of war and death and of course someone has to come along and ruin it by talking about fooken tyres!! :mad:

I forgot to mention earlier that I was almost run over by a bus earlier, he decided as I was approaching his junction on the roundabout that it was perfectly fine for him to pull directly into my path

I had a lecture today and the whole lecture was about engines diesel cycle, Otto cycle(petrol) and of course the rotary engine. The lecture started talking about rx8s and all it was great

I know it was great went down hill about when we started looking at them as thermodynamic system and analysing there efficiency but I suppose what would you expect in an engineering thermodynamics modules :pac: ah no it was very interesting now. To See internal animations of the rotary engine in action was class. Pity more cars weren't fitted with them.

Ah thermodynamics

What hell awaits you you can't realise :pac:

Looking at anything from a thermodynamic view just takes the interesting stuff out of it.
Other than sterling engines though, they are cool little things
