LOL! Damn it. It works! OK. not Aqua Blue Pearl... that was just P-chop of a random picture I took at the London Volksfest of a C at the right kind of angle that wasn't red or white :) Pearl Green then? ;)

Been toying with the idea of buying a G60 :)

what this would look like in real life? :wink:

WTF is going on with those last two?

If you've got an MOT coming up, you'll need to get it sorted, as it's a failure item.

BaBs over on No-rice.com is Canadian. He does live in Newport, Gwent, so he's acquired a Goldie Lookin' Chain accent and a Vento :) Oh, and thank you so much for Celine Dion :x :-P

And here's another :D

I was going to say that you slow-synced the flash in the first picture, but didn't hold the camera steady (use a tripod next time you try that ;)) leading to a blurred image, but that second one's fine apart from the rather flat lighting with the flash unit mounted so close to the lens axis. :D

New safety regulations - so pedestrians bounce more easily :roll:

2nd concept car of the day to leave me stone cold, I'm afraid. :roll:

I experienced exactly this on Monday night when pulling out of a petrol station exit in Sutton. W**ker indicated right, sat to the right of me, then pulls out left across my path! :x In general, I'm continually gobsmacked by the lack of indication, particularly when overtaking on dual carriageways and motorways. Does nobody think it's ever necessary to indicate when pulling back into a lane after overtaking any more? I almost ran into a BMW (surprise!) a week or two ago who hadn't bothered indicating his change from the outside lane to the middle when I was indicating to overtake from the inside. Saw him in my mirrors in the outside lane and it was only my blind-spot check that saved me from pulling out right into the side of his car.

...but surely if you live on top of a large hill, then that's the easy bit taken care of in the morning. :) Your engine will hardly have time to begin to warm up before the journey's over. Seriously, bikes are the fastest mode of transport for journeys of less than one mile. How about an electric bicycle?

He was there, but I don't think I see his car in amongst those pics, unless I'm having brain failure.

Inspired by veeDuB_Rado, I thought I'd do a version of one of my favourite pics from e38 at a suitable size for use as a desktop image. The picture's been on my PowerBook for the last few days anyway. :) Hope nobody minds me nicking the masthead graphic from the Forum :oops:

Pfft!

my money would be on VZi being the biggest As a side-note, No-Rice.com just recruited its 1,000th member ;)

Sweet :)

I know the very car you want. Too bad it's in Malta :D

3 Series Beemers are now more common than Mondeos anyhow.

Pfft! Sell the C and buy an Allegro. See what he says then. :? I suppose you could just stick one of these on his windscreen :) http://www.bollox.net/images/215.jpg

Got my stitched panorama from the day together at last. Click the picture above for a 580 KB, 3177 x 700 pixel version :)

[:evil: devil's advocate] Counter argument is that since fuel duty is fixed per litre, as the price rises, the proportion of tax you pay actually falls, so the complaint that duty on petrol is at such a high level is diminshed :) [:evil: /devil's advocate]

Erk! Topically, I've got a nice, unchipped windscreen that I need fitted on my Scirocco. Any recommendations for good fitters in South London/Surrey?

Like of those questions I get constantly asked: How do I make my computer faster? My usual answer: learn to touch type :)

Ta very much. Just about one of my favourite pictures of this year is the rear end of a Ghia at Wheels Day in March http://www.cybertects.co.uk/picturepost ... _7193.html
