Ive a 42" plasma in the bedroom - its great miles better then LCD IMO I have a 46" LCD downstairs - I think the plasma just gives off a better all round picture with zero judder

I must admit on the larger screens I do prefer the plasma as I think they give the better quality picture with no ghosting. She wont budge at the moment on a 42" as she says its too big for upstairs (currently got a 32" crt type that to be honest the picture quality is awesome, but the baby is getting that one!!)

Nothing wrong with the existing plasma, but I want one with more hdmi connections and 1080p and not 1080i like mine currently is. Must say though since I built my media centre the picture quality is a lot better than when it was fed via a sky box

Cheers Si, no whiplash, luckily it was relatively low speed, feel okay at present just a bit shaky.

Just sorted my bumper out so it doesnt foul my wheel. Hopefully they wont write it off

if it is then I will try to buy it back as the door can be popped back out, wing should only be a few quid, headlamp / bumper from a scrappy, probably have to get a bumper bar from a main stealer, shed load of paint from some motor factor, few hours in my garage and she will be looking like new
