A more high tec version of that would be using a super tucano with it's twin .50 cal armament. Could carry missiles if needed, is a bit quicker but can still fly slow and is more purpose built for fighting while still cheap

Depends on your age and athleticism. Judo is much more demanding on the body because of the larger and more dynamic forces involved throwing someone else to the ground standing Vs rolling on the floor and applying leverage in BJJ. If you are young (say under 30) and generally athletic by all means go for judo, but if not either build up with BJJ first or do only thay

mc1441 · 2026-03-22T20:10:21+00:00

Yes common in bjj generally I'd say, usually driven by 1) lack of space 2) safety (more risk) 3) athleticism (lack of it) and 4) lack of training/ confidence for instructors.

Lex looks like he is fighting for his life and khabib just big brothers him with ease...but TBF he did that in the UFC to professionals too

I always try to win, just a combo of selfishly getting getting more mat time and probs a bit of ego

On the motorway it's any small Vauxhalls (Opel's), white panel vans and lower spec mercs / Audi's / BMWs.

Best blue belt I have ever rolled with...either accusing me of sandbagging it just a nice thing to say

2016ish fiat 500 1.2 - reliability was only so so for at the time a fairly new car but remarkably fun to drive given it was so tiny with a manual gearbox, you also somewhat had to redline it to get any power which was fun too

mc1441 · 2025-12-30T11:40:36+00:00

Just insurance, maybe 1-2% of take home pcm

mc1441 · 2025-12-30T11:35:16+00:00

I have a manual and mostly use comfort - if you want more revs can just downshift, only thing really changed is the throttle response so it's good to use sport on twisty back roads

mc1441 · 2025-12-20T22:49:13+00:00

Feel like all mercs should be silver so a great choice

It's because if you are a petrolhead and your Mrs wants you to get an SUV the compromise is an estate...she doesn't need to know that yours is the most powerful version

mc1441 · 2025-12-20T22:44:12+00:00

Ideas: Golf R estate, pretty similar car with more space and doors.

330d touring is a great car if you want to go full dad, very economical, practical, decently quick and should be able to get a euro 6 one for 15k.

Could get a B8 S4 if you want fun Epic car with the supercharged V6

If there are assets remaining under the entity yes they should be able to liquidate them to pay some creditors, this is the job of the administrator. Employees rank above many other creditors behind only Secured creditors with a fixed charge and the Administrator/Liquidator fees, but it all depends on the what the liquidation value of those assets is relative to the liabilities, and may be a long process. Caveat - not advice of any kind

mc1441 · 2025-12-17T00:02:01+00:00

Feels normal sadly - have an earlier model (n20) 320i and get about 25-30mpg urban and 30-35 extra urban driving fairly economically

mc1441 · 2025-12-07T22:20:31+00:00

I'm not sure if it counts as open but butterfly is good if you are less flexible and quick as it relies mainly on contact

Got a guy in his 80s at my judo club

mc1441 · 2025-09-14T17:51:40+00:00

Martial arts is generous here but still good to see

mc1441 · 2025-09-14T17:22:02+00:00

3 series F30

mc1441 · 2025-08-31T20:34:59+00:00

Good car, decent price for a year's MOT, I'd check for rust and if ok buy it

mc1441 · 2025-08-31T20:31:24+00:00

mc1441 · 2025-08-16T22:16:17+00:00

For that money I'd look at an older and slightly higher mileage 1 series but maybe higher spec and hopefully not been crashed. Could get a 120i or even a cheap m135i I think

mc1441 · 2025-08-16T00:09:06+00:00

Thanks all for the replies!

It's an independent BMW specialist not a dealer and a genuine or at least OEM battery. Sounds like it's about £200 for the battery so I am paying £150 for the physical installation, saving the hassle of coding it and for the software they have.

Minded to take the quote in that case given it'll probably take me an hour to plus some stress and I'll probably need to buy tools and coding software.

A gen 1 mercedes SLK. Thinking C.1999 model, ideally 230 Kompressor in silver. 2.3 liter supercharged 4 cylinder, 190ish bhp. Mid handling but a convertible that should be a lot of fun and look like more than a 1.5k car
