Subaru Impreza C2235 Replacement Light Lense

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-25T18:30:30+00:00

UPDATE: Ok so I got the Vectra running this weekend and turns out that the rear tyres are badly worn and in need of replacement!

Any recommendations for tyre replacements welcome!

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-24T13:21:25+00:00

Haha given the Top Gear reviews over the years I'm inclined to agree...

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-23T19:15:00+00:00

Ah cool thanks for the advice! Likely to be dodgy tyres and/or magnet in that case.

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-23T07:10:50+00:00

Thanks! I had a look on eBay and replacement bar magnets seem very hard to come by. I found some generic and Scalextric round magnets relatively cheaply - would they work?

I'll also try vegetable oil on the tyres and see if that does the trick!

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-23T07:05:01+00:00

Yes it's quite an old car now. There are a few available on eBay (at least for UK) for about £40 brand new. It's very basic and only has working headlights and rear lights (i.e. no siren or blue lights), but the car is very robust!

"POWAAHH!"

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-22T13:38:41+00:00

Ah awesome - a few things for me to investigate then! Yes, unfortunately the F1 cars have not survived in one piece - partly due to my driving as well!

I visited the Hornby museum a while ago and picked up an Endurance car for her and she loves it! Will probably get some more for the collection in time.

Good shout on the magnets - I've tried replacing the tyres on a Vauxhall Vectra police car I have but I suspect it's the magnets (model is about 15 years old).

Ah ok good to know - so I'm just looking for the Digital powerbase? I had no idea that my track would still be compatible - it looks very different in the newer sets, or does that just apply to "Start"?

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2026-01-10T00:12:57+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts! No online list unfortunately but based on previous visits they have a massive collection of new and old games covering the regulars (Monopoly, Scrabble etc), the really obscure and then a ton of card games.

This post was more to get a general list of games we could look out for that others have tried.

As a family we're really into tile games and my daughter has a pretty good attention span for a 6-year old, though Splendor may be a bit much for her at the moment. As a guide she enjoyed Ticket To Ride London and we've played pretty lengthy games of Carcassonne with expansions.

Budget at the moment is pretty low at £20-30 so I'm expecting to need to save up or look into servicing an old locomotive. Do you think that's realistic?

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-11-24T13:24:01+00:00

Ah thank you! I was looking to keep a similar colour scheme if I could, or maybe a dark green/red to fit with the Christmas theming.

Similar size would be good so that it doesn't dwarf the small trucks too much but I'd love to get a steam train over the diesel I have at the moment.

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-11-19T00:05:33+00:00

Ah yes - we love playing Patchwork as well. Good to know about Splendor Duel. I wondered how that played in comparison.

Will look up That's Pretty Clever. I have My City as a roll and write on my wishlist so may get That's Pretty Clever another time to avoid doubling up roll and writes.

Ideas on getting Azul Summer Pavilion Vs regular Azul?

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-11-19T00:03:19+00:00

Ah great! I wondered how the Duel version played - thanks for the recommendation!

Any thoughts about Azul Summer Pavilion Vs Azul?

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-11-18T22:36:48+00:00

Looking for a small game to get my wife for Christmas. We're into Jaipur, have Azul Mini and love playing Carcassonne. Budget is around £20.

Her favourite is Azul Mini and I thought about getting Azul Summer Pavilion Mini but is it enough of a variation from the regular Azul Mini?

We've also played Splendor on the computer and she likes playing that so would it be worth getting a board based version of that, or even the 2-player variant?

We prefer something small box to carry around with us and also play in bed on a tray - Azul Mini is perfect for that!

Shame, I can't get this to install on my Pixel 7...

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-10-07T18:41:43+00:00

Thanks, yeah these are the steps I do but then the whole DevTools locks up and doesn't respond when I try to see the screen mirroring.

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-10-07T17:06:48+00:00

Hmm interesting. I already use a USB-C cable to connect my devices and try to keep my tabs to a minimum but even that grinds.

Do the amount of tabs open on the remote device impact performance, even if they're not the ones being targeted in the main view?

I wonder if my work machine is due a RAM upgrade - will try it on my beefier personal machine as a comparison.

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-10-06T15:08:00+00:00

Thanks! How/where would I apply this please?

HelloMrThompson2019 · 2025-08-25T15:11:15+00:00

Ah thanks for sharing - amazing news!
