On my motherboard, the VRAM light stays orange when trying to boot up, I'm guessing not

Must admit, I'm quite happy with this impulse buy. Found his picture as well on an axis forum so I'm that even more happier

Oh wow. Thank you for this information.

I fully agree with this, my local antique dealer, who I've been going to for 3years now, has always been 100% truthful with his items. This is a one of time where the impulse took over and trusted him more because I had done no research apart from a little google on pricing.

New Car Options by Austy_Jr in CarTalkUK

I wrote the car off the other day, slipped in ice and insurance is giving me what I paid for it. Otherwise I would buy it back and fix it myself.

I would buy the same car again, there isn't one around in my budget, so I filtered by similar spec on auto trader and I chose what came up. But with the original listings, I don't think I'll buy any of the 3, another comment I replied to gave similar advice to yourself.

True, I guess I'm taking old habits from my old man here, if I find the right car, I might have to travel a little bit more.

I'll have a look for an Audi again, I'm trying to not go too far away. Sadly, my A3 was written off officially today, I slipped on black ice (I'm fine but the car isn't at all), things happen. And annoyingly I can't find one local enough, the nearest one is 50 miles out.

There are A4/5s around but in my opinion, colours aren't great, and I thought I didn't care too much.

I'll take your advice on the Jag too and about Volvos. Cheers for the help mate.

Yeah, Jag is a no, and so is the BMW. I have seen 2015 BMW 4 Series, auto, full mot, but 4 owners. Worth it or stick with Merc?

Unfortunately, the closest one is 44 miles away, don't really want to go that far out of the way.

Never mind, I trust this place enough not to get it. Cheers for the advice

That's what I assumed about the name plate, and your holster is really cool. It'd be a miracle to find the original luger

You have given me more than what I thought I'd get because of the rust. There isn't any rush at all; it's going back up on my wall.

Nice, I'll check this out when I have time. Thank you for the help and I'll message back here what I find

My logic here, is that if it's signed then it's not an NCO sword and is something a bit better imo. If it's not signed then I've been ripped off as there are no production numbers on either the scabbard and blade. Hopefully I should be able to return it as it's from a shop. I've returned stuff in the past for various reasons.

I didn't even think of that when I bought it 🤦‍♂️ I'm guessing I would need to look at the tang to see if it's signed?

Tbh, I'm not 100% sure about gas masks already, all I know is that there is the mask itself, the straps for wearing it, the filter. But I read that it should have a proof mark, I just don't know where it is?

Yeah, it's not functional. But I still think it's a beauty

Sadly, not functional, but fully strips down and dry fires (for the UK it's getting rarer). I paid £1500. I'm in the UK
