:hyper: that's right! i've just got in from work, I almost did a Jig today when I got off the Phone!! The best bit is, "Mr. Daniels, we have decided to pay for damages to your car, as our insurers believe this is a special and unusual car very well cared for by its owner, and also these are special circumstances." A girl working at the co.council told me (off the record) that the guy who went to assess the damage was knocked out by it and truly felt sorry for me and my poor zed! :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: If someone told me this was the reason I probably wouldn't believe it. I never met or spoke to the guy but …

Who's best! :D I am about to start doing my own little thing :eek: Fed up of work and basically not being able to settle after being made redundant earlier this year. Also peed off with crap wages (car off raod since being made redundant in march) I have bought a nice little tranny van which will pass its mot tomorrow but finding hard to insure with no no-claims bonus (all on zed) getting quotes for around 2.5K for a £600 tranny :confused: any advise lads? cheers

Anyone know anything about these cars, what they are like etc to drive..im currently half way between this and an FTO.... Would a GT4 2l turbo be horrendous on fuel? I like the toyota GT's with the pop up lights they in my opinion are the best models...

were can i get them from, i have seen 2 cars that have them but i carnt get hold of them, ones in germany and the other, sumwere in uk.

im feeling pretty "brassed off" already this week as my exhaust on my van has decided to fall to bits, and it would be the part with the "cat" on it! so this is obviously gunna cost me a bit. plus ive just spent £300 on it sorting out the brakes and dodgy gas (lpg). then some muppet has decided to drive down the side of my van leaving a very nice dent/scratch!! i know accidents do happen but at least have the decency to admit to it instead of driving off leaving me to sort/pay for the damage..........all this being money that could be well spent on the zed! :rant: :rant: :rant: ahh, the joys of motoring :D

Thinking of getting you something for Xmas that you will use for next year What colour do you want mate? :rofl:

These pictures were taken from Maho beach on the island of St.Maarten which is situated in the heart of the Dutch Caribbean. It would appear that one of the runways at the Princess Juliana International Airport is backed right on to Maho beach. As it is, the planes pass over the beach just before they touch down! How cool is that, i have to go there just witness this 1st hand! :D This is not a fake or photoshop as you can see be reading this Article on discussing measures to prevent 'Jetblast' injurys caused to people on Maho beach. Clicky for vid.

7 Days and 14 Hours....................... Untill................................ My MOT :eek: (NO not MINE, Elisas') And I don't even have a rear bumper attached at the moment! Items that she might fail on are........... Headlamp Aim. HID's fitted, without self leveling (technically it should, so I've been told, we'll see). Small size front number plate. Possible...... Rear tyres, although they are above the minimum wear mark, so they should be fine for now (new ones next year) RUST!!!!!!!!!! (not much, just a little on the inner sill to floor …

Looks like I am going to be Zedless for a while as my autobox has given up :cry: , I have seen a Mk3 Golf GTi for sale nearby that I am thinking of buying, taken it out for a spin and other than feeling like I was sitting in a shoebox on wheels it seems to go well with no faults, anyone here own one or know of any common faults I should check for?

Back in the house now after a wee busy day - the new black Z now feels more like my old grey Z. Swapped the leather interior into the new one Put a new steering wheel on the old one Got the dodgy speedo chip off the old one Removed the amp and wires from the old one Removed the cd changer from the old one Swapped the spots so I could keep me led side lights and 100 spots Put the spare, boot floor and jack kit back in the old one Swapped oil caps so I could keep me red one Took the Alpine head unit from grey one Had a look at the rear of the twin din stereo in the new one THAT's a job for another day Drank coffee Wiped brow Came home. …

Been trying to call fancy plates all morning, but just get an engaged tone. Anyone ever managed to speak to them? Anyway, I've sent them the following email...if anyone's in the know, maybe they could advise.

This is whats going on over the water in the States! thought you might like them :D

Those who know me chuckle under your breath ;) You know what i'm like! When there on the Z I'll post a pic hehe! harve

Hi guys and gals, I've just had some major PC problems, and the result is I've had to have a new hard drive but have managed to retain the old hard drive (with all the data) as a slave drive. I have been told I've got to reinstall all my software (a right PITA) but is there any way I can retrieve all my old, filed email messages? If so, where would I find them? I am using Outlook Express 6. Any help would be appreciated :D.

Did I imagine this or was a ship actually attacked off the coast of Somalia? Rocket propelled grenades and automatic guns! I think it's about time I organised armed protection for cruise liners, there has got to be an opening somewhere!
