I got a new set of wiper blades on my car on E Bay. I think they might be too big because they hang over the edges a little, but I don't care, they work great and I would have to say that they are the only blades I have ever had that I actually like to watch working. Call me crazy, but lately I have been driving around non-stop with them on. I've even been pulled over and the cop asked to go for a ride so he could watch them work. They were outrageously expensive (being French), but safety is my main concern and like I said, they work great. Let me know if you would like a pair for your car. Details below...... …

A car has skidded off the road in eastern Germany and landed on the roof of a church. Police said the vehicle was travelling at high speed when the collision happened in Limbach-Oberfrohna on Sunday. The 23-year-old driver missed a bend in the road and drove through a railing before careering up an embankment and flying 35 metres through the air. Emergency workers had to free the man who was taken to hospital for treatment. :eek::eek: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7851012.stm

My work closes this Thursday :( has been in receivership for the last year or so, no one wants to buy the place too expensive (soho) used to be the old Raymond revue bar a lot of history in the place. I heard the bad news about an hour ago. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO no more zed parts for a while now. may have to cancel my Zrun trip to Amsterdam:( Ah well wish me luck, been on the search for jobs luckily there are loads of chef jobs available.

As you know i've bought a 4x4 and it was imported from Japan late last year. There isn't a bit of rust on it which is great and i'd like to keep it that way. Do people generally put a coat of that tar stuff on them? Or is it a personal preference?? The car is made with zink coated steel so won't rust but not sure about the chassis.

Word to the wise, and please advise any other forums that you may be members of this: http://www.autoadvan.co.uk are a vehicle importer, importing vehicle from America and Japan. I recently browsed their website and found 2 BMW 850i's, from 1990. There are priced at 6 and 8K. I started making enquiries. Then by chance on http://www.tradecarview.com/used_car/japan_car/honda/all/?ps=25. I entered a search for a BMW 8 series from 1990, and low and behold, there were the same cars for 1.6K and 1.9K FOB. Even with taxes and shipping these cars come in at approx 2.5K and 3K respectively. Which is a 3.5 and 5K saving of the inflated prices on the Autoadvan site…

Never mind mate, there's still Wimbledon. :tongue:

just wondering if anyone here can help me out with a quick question? I'm currently looking at buying a ducati 748. but I've been given a very mixed response about them when asking ppl. can anyone here tell me what they are like?

I had a play around and cant seam to get rid of it.. It started to rain a bit so had to come in, no am i roght in thinking that there is some interferance coming from a power source or could it be the RCA cables grounding out on the body work.. Under the stereo or in the boot ( i have 1 wired in ready for the carputer but not connected to anything, it's just laying in the boot) Will go out tommorrow and have another play about but wnate…

Sky 1 - 1st Feb 09 - 10pm http://sky1.sky.com/show/ross-kemp-afghanistan Love the Guy or hate him, he is a top bloke for going back to highlight the dangerous, selfless and underpaid job our Armed Forces do out there. I watched the 1st series, and I was moved at how close he got with the men, and how it affected him, the soldiers and their families when men were Killed. You could argue the fact that he gets paid loads of money, and he's just doing it to make a name for himself etc, but he is in the thick of it with the soldiers, and could get Killed as easily as the next man, so maximum respect to him. :bow: I will be watching. :)

Any one who is breaking a mk1 Toyota MR2? The window control box on my bothers one has fooked up and he can't close the window, I would be most grateful if anyone could get one. Scotty

watched them both over the last few days, both fantastic films that before i watched them thought would be really boring. how wrong was i, slumdog is one of the best movies i have ever seen, and just watched seven pounds tonight, thinking again i would prob get bored and turn off, didnt happen at all, and even though you dont really know whats going off all the way through the film it still keeps you interested, if you get chance go and see them/download em, slumdog is the best though

Just wanted to say that I don't like the appearance of the skylines and cannot understand why people drool over them. Yes the handle well and yes they have excellent performance, but God I think they look ugly compared to the Zed. Am I alone paddling my own canoe on this one?
