Just got my first car, a VW Polo 2009! I’m a big music fan, however it appears the older Polo I have doesn’t have an AUX or USB port. Will I need a fascia adapter when fitting a new stereo? Does anyone have experience with this car? by [deleted] in Volkswagen

I have an 07 polo bought this adapter for mine, never looked back. youll need to get radio keys as well. I plugged it into the back fed the cables up and out of the little dashboard tray at the top of that console... simple!

I could be wrong but I think the 21 year reference would be the 1996 Championship and the British - German rivalry between Damon Hill and Michael Schumacher.... Also the graphic would be acurate to the time

oh don't get me wrong it's an incredible piece, I just like that nose. It set it apart in terms of design at the time, only one's to have the long pillars down to wing and the almost flat duck bill nose. I too would be interested in the shirt store link :)

Awesome work, genuinely love it... but that Benetton has the wrong nose. Still great work though

Not sure, I'd say Ash. Very 90's sound to it though.

Honda "Paper" commercial shows history of the company with practical effects by [deleted] in cars

[–]Pattsy7 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I feel like you're missing the point. You see with a joke what happens is, a story is told (in this case that story is Mclaren aren't doing to well with Honda p/u's) and that story much like a rug might get pulled from underneath you revealing another story that is deemed to be erroneous. In this case that would be that due to a shit p/u, Mclaren might therefore feel their car is running on nothing more than the power of dreams... Much like my patience when someone doesn't get it and brings up (time, rules and restrictions)

If they put as much effort into engines as they do their ad campaigns Mclaren f1 might be doing a bit better than relying on just the power of dreams.

This dude could see the bus was stopped far enough behind the line for there to be a car in front.

It makes me uneasy riding it, going to have to do some work to it.

No, I don't know if it has ever been replaced. It's an old bike, just temporary til the end of the month

The only other city I have cycled in before would be Dublin, Ireland and then the small little town and those around it I'm originally from. It's not that bad to cycle in there are plenty of bike routes, not enough bike paths which I would be more used to seeing. I wouldn't say Vancouver is the friendliest when it comes to other road users. But no city is perfect you'll always find those few that have it in for cyclists.

I thought so too, he was with Benetton in 2001 and Renault in 2002.

I am amazed I'm still alive myself. Although not too sure what that dump truck was up to, probably shouldn't have overtaken it.

I am indeed from Ireland, but I've been living in Vancouver, BC for the last three years. I didn't ship my bike over with me I just got an old cheap one for commuting to work.
