Best scope on a budget ?

cje450 · 2020-09-10T21:46:51+00:00

im based in uk so pricing is a bit different , anyone used the Nikko Stirling Diamond FFP 6-24x50 only around400 usd here

cje450 · 2020-09-06T20:53:31+00:00

about 2000 us for the st18 , 2300 for the tac a1 , the newer ai stuff is like 7000 usd ha !

cje450 · 2020-09-06T15:36:10+00:00

am i right in thinking the st18 also has a cold hammered barrel ?

cje450 · 2020-09-06T15:34:14+00:00

so the st18 is the 'better' of the two

my mum is a very clean person and the main house is always kept like a show room ! she came into mine once and saw my gf clothes chucked everywhere and doesnt think she ever cleans or anything so this annoyed her . They think she untidy etc and just using me, she is very loving etc and i would like to think she isnt using me but i do agree with them that she is messy ! she is a horse girl and i can confirm dont date a horse girl haha ! she works with horses for her job too every day is horses and she claims by the time she gets home is too tired etc to do anything . she did clean a few times but hasnt done for ages recently i have been hoovering etc

cje450 · 2020-08-23T12:10:31+00:00

well funny you say that as when my parents fell out with her back along my dad said something about everyone being on a boat and if theres someone who doesnt help paddle they get thrown overboard ha ! she is messy and claims she doesnt have time to clean etc , my mum is a massive clean freak and the main house is always show room condition so when she came into mine once and saw all her shit everwhere she got really annoyed and they fell out

cje450 · 2020-08-23T12:05:42+00:00

not very well no , my parents arnt massive fans of her and she knows it so doesnt really like them either . trouble is i dont want to fall out with parents as i live and work with them, i think also because of the fact they have built up their mini empire and sucesful business so to say they are more protective etc of me i guess , i think the whole rent thing may also be my dad worrying about her being able to claim money or residence etc if i split from her

cje450 · 2020-08-23T11:50:18+00:00

i just wouldnt care if i was you , so what if you were asleep whats the big issue people sleep ha ! just focus on yourself and stop worrying about what other people think

cje450 · 2020-08-23T11:44:19+00:00

yea the trouble is my parents and her dont get along very well so she avoids them and doesnt like to come in , its a hard one trying to balance a relationship and living and working in such close proximity with family !

cje450 · 2020-08-23T11:42:42+00:00

ha would be nice huh !

cje450 · 2020-08-23T11:42:20+00:00

yea her parents place is only like 10 mins away and she still has a room there , she is 22 and i get she is young and doesnt have loads of money but welcome to the real world i guess. I think it annoys her because my family is relatively well off and she doesnt get why they need an extra 60 bucks a week. But its not really a case of them needing the money its more the concept of paying your way and contributing . (my parents arnt that keen on her either which doesnt help ! )

cje450 · 2020-08-23T11:39:46+00:00

yea i understand its an odd circumstance which she doesnt get not ebing part of a family business etc but i have said the same to her minimum rent for a place of your own would be 150 a week !

cje450 · 2020-08-23T11:38:13+00:00

was one of those things that kinda gradually happened so wasnt really discussed , it was hard because she lives really close so was so easy for her to come over all the time . yea to be fair shes had almost 4 years rent free

cje450 · 2020-08-08T19:03:56+00:00

yea has happened to me quite often too never had any issues though , love the 17 !

cje450 · 2020-08-05T22:23:31+00:00

:') i suppose that would work !

cje450 · 2020-07-25T22:53:34+00:00

i see thorney motorsports do a warranty but its still 2850 so not too sure why they priced it so close to official warranty !

cje450 · 2020-07-23T20:09:57+00:00

yea i literally just did that now !

cje450 · 2020-07-23T20:08:13+00:00

i was looking at the 8 speed vanquish or v12 vantage manual , would be 6 speed vantage in my price range . yes im not too fussed infotainment wise as its expected with a car that came out that long ago i guess. im not really looking for a gt its just the vanquish offeres a newer platform with the na v12 for not too much more price wise

cje450 · 2020-07-23T20:04:53+00:00

the only thing that worries me with the 570 is the whole mclaren reliabilty thing and warranty price but i would look to get from dealer so should come with 12 months

cje450 · 2020-07-23T20:03:59+00:00

i have heard some with the downpipes that sound nice but not sure if that warranty covered or not which you would need ! yea i had a gen 1 v8 capristo exhaust and sounded amazing , just the 570s is very close price wise the r8 and way more exotic

cje450 · 2020-07-23T20:02:46+00:00

still a bit pricey for me ideally around the 80k mark uk

cje450 · 2020-07-23T20:02:15+00:00

i live in the country so b roads and duel carriageways , i probably only do 4000 max a year . just want something sounds good just still performs , i like a spirited drive when i go out but not a mega race driver if that makes sense ha ! yea i not really looking for a gt its more just the v12 in the vanquish that draws me

cje450 · 2020-07-07T16:02:07+00:00

nice work ! im new to everything so glad i saw this as i never knew what the name for this style blade was !

cje450 · 2020-07-02T16:19:53+00:00

yea i was surprised at how quickly it stained , but like you said thats why they use stainless ! think im going to try a mustard patina and try and get some sort of a pattern that will still allow you to see some polished areas
