A local 'ruins' - before and after
Thats pretty cool, bet that old ruin has some stories to tell. Real shame these places are left to rot away. It won't be long before the local councils will be demolishing places like this due to their dumbass health & safety policies. They're probably still sending council tax bills there anyway... :mellow:

killer Zs
If it hasn't rained for a while, the roads will be really greasy & slippy when it does, all the rubber on the tarmac from the dry weather causes it. Go steady! :innocent:

What is it with paypal????
Same here, not a metro though! Just sold a mountainbike, the guy paid by paypal last night, i transfered it across last night, will take 5 days or so. The guy has just been to pick it up. Maybe this 21 day thing is until you are a verified seller?

landlord problems.
Is the door locked or unlocked when he cant move the key? Locked.. fire escape hazard. Unlocked.. insurance will be invalid. Either way it's the landlords job to fix the lock, is there a letting agent involved?

180sx / 240z
From the front it looks almost believable, from the rest of the angles it looks awful and it's got those fugly rear lights too. The 240z looks beautiful.. no comparison.

No parks, dips, illumination of clock clusters or rear lights - which fuse?
Had similar problem with mine before, try the 'clear lense illumination' fuse. Also, try waggling the hazard switch about, sometimes it gets jammed and then affects the other lights.

Kittens
Used to have two cats, pure white brothers, had them from new. One lived to 11, the other to 13... great pets, very self sufficient. We got 2 house rabbits now, got them from a rescue centre, already had all the injections, neutered etc... £45 the pair... bargain!

Mitsubishi legnum- good daily
I looked into these a while ago, very complex car, have the active yaw control like the evo's. In fact they are almost the same as an evo underneath it all... awesome road holding. As said before... very thirsty, also when the autobox lets go it mega bucks! Reckon he'd be better off with a Subaru Legacy.

Used car rant
You'll meet a lot of people like that in the used car scene i'm afraid. Whats acceptable to him is obviously not acceptable to you, or many other 'punters'. He should've come clean about the scratches on the phone, maybe they'd have buffed out? What makes me laugh is the ads you see stating 'no timewasters', when in reality it's the people selling the car that are the timewasters. My Mrs has a v-reg Polo 1.4cl, only got 36k on the clock! It's absolutely mint condition (she aint sellin' it!), but it is awful to drive, like an old barge, wallows all over the road. Handles like a school bus. Good luck with your search, you'll find the right one eventually.
