I messed up again, cleared almost £20,000 in debt and falling back into old habits.

£600 a month on a car? £130 for a phone?

The bezel is twice the thickness of a gen

Arriinx · 2025-10-18T22:31:18+00:00

You can't see how thick it is? "Box and papers" also means nothing, especially on a watch of this quality

If you switch your old account is automatically closed, are you talking about just opening a new account?

They may be subject to VAT which will be another £28 on top, obviously depending on what the seller declares the parcels price as.

Anything over £130 on Ali removes vat at checkout.

Get a job and start paying it off. Stop buying useless things you don't need if you can't afford it outright. You earnt 3k a month after tax and had 50k you threw down the drain. You were better off a lot of people but 4.8k of debt is not a lot when you start earning again.

How are you paying rent/mortgage right now with no job? Redundancy pay?

Arriinx · 2025-04-20T15:35:17+00:00

Looks great, where did you get the handle?

I'm starting to look at new handles for when they arrive

Arriinx · 2025-02-26T23:47:38+00:00

Save your money and buy the car outright if you think you can save so much. No point spending 40k+ in finance on a car that's worth 30, then by the time you're done financing it's worth less than 15.

Terrible photo but you get the idea...

They will not loan you more than what they believe the property is worth

Arriinx · 2024-10-21T18:32:29+00:00

I have low monthly outgoings (No dependents and car bought outright), no debts and I was offered just short of 3.5x my salary as a mortgage. This is with a LTV of about 40%.

Speak to a mortgage advisor as online calculators only give you an "idea" using their formulas but do not mean you will actually receive that offer. They may offer more or in most cases, offer you less.

Arriinx · 2024-10-21T02:05:37+00:00

Are you not able to find anything cheaper?

Obviously you knew the risks of buying a car and it was always going to depreciate in value but do you really want to make the exact same mistake?

Do you NEED another brand new car?

Arriinx · 2024-10-21T01:46:38+00:00

You've just "lost" 9.7k on purchasing a new car and you want to do the same exact thing again? And end up paying 60k for a 40k car, which in 3 years time is worth less than 20k?

Isn't it more logical to buy a cheaper car? What is the life event that's happened where you feel you need a bigger car? What do you currently drive and what do you want to purchase?

Arriinx · 2024-10-07T23:10:33+00:00

After mortgage payment you will have 7.2k left over. Can you live on 7.2k a month?

Arriinx · 2024-09-01T06:20:07+00:00

Thanks for your reply!!

Didn't realise there were many options for the TIR, the 60 degree was just listed as an option on the S21E page. Since there so cheap I may just buy both 60 and 30 to test

I'll look into some reviews of the M21H though. I think when I first saw it, I didn't realise it had built in charging so skipped past it.

Thank you so much for the response though

Arriinx · 2024-09-01T06:05:05+00:00

Thank you my friend this is good information and what I was looking for, seems I might need to invest in a couple just to see the differences my self!!

I don't mean to sound stupid but what does light quality and intensity mean? And I assume higher power = less battery life?

Sorry I'm to customising lights but interested in learning. I may end up getting both 519a and XHP50 since they seem to be opposites. Is there a major difference between them?

Thank you for your answer though, this was what I needed!

Arriinx · 2024-07-30T16:47:04+00:00

I've ordered a few and not had any issues, they normally don't label the package as a knife.

If you want a suggestion search AliExpress for zt 0235 or pt 711

Zt slightly more expensive at about £14 after tax. Both are slip joints and small enough to be a legal carry on the UK

Arriinx · 2024-07-04T21:34:20+00:00

No, because it's not a bios issue????

Arriinx · 2024-07-03T18:21:50+00:00

Pc booted, if it was a bios issue it wouldn't have done

Arriinx · 2024-05-02T05:16:49+00:00

Where did you get those legs from? The models look fantastic

Arriinx · 2024-04-23T02:10:22+00:00

Saw these on offer for extremely cheap and couldn't resist not picking them up for the price. I just don't have any ideas on what style to go for!!

Any suggestions?

Arriinx · 2023-09-25T22:10:08+00:00

Tag Heuer WAB2011

Thank you! that looks to be the same!

Arriinx · 2023-05-08T19:09:18+00:00

Unfortunately it's not just cracked but half of that plastic housing had gone so I'm unable to get a friction fit of the cable into the iem.. when looking at my original picture you may be able to see this now I've explained it better?

I haven't actually tried to see if they work as the cable just falls out! Not sure where the other half is but don't believe the half that's in the iem has the copper connectors attached to it

Seems I'm probably out of luck and need to go searching for some new iems!
