smart phone advise????
I have an iphone & they just work so well! Am well impressed with it & internet access is great! Not sure about all networks but with O2 internet is free even when out & about and not through your router! :cool3: About the only other phone I would consider when it comes out soon is the Google Nexus One: http://www.google.com/phone Reports are good but not sure it would beat apple in the sheer ease of use!

LOL!! An investment?! Er, no - its "only" £5K cos its a piece of crap thats not worth any more. :blink: In fact as investments go I would rather invest £5k in beer, drink it all & p*ss it up the wall - far more satisfying than the thought of owning that monstrosity!! :yes:

If i.....
Good luck bud. Click here for the emissions criteria: http://www.motuk.co.uk/manual_730.htm Scroll down to the 4th section to see how the vehicle is tested for emmiting smoke
-
If i.....
Yes mate - am a tester :) TBH if the turbos are causing the smoking its probably because the oil is being forced past which will prob happen even if you do open the wastegates :( The oil will still be flowing the same.

If i.....
The MOT only tests for excessive smoke at idle & by blipping the throttle to 2500rpm & has to be dense blue or black smoke that would obscure other road users vision. The turbo's wont be boosting while stationary revving the engine so will make no difference. Disconnecting the wastegates will stop them from opening at all giving no regualtion to boost pressure! It would have to be quite bad to fail the MOT while stationary!

The Fast Show was one of the funniest comedy shows ever IMO! Early Harry Enfield was great too but his later stuff just got crap IMO! The Mary Whitehouse Experience was funny as you like too! - See that old shelfish stall with all of its food shriveled up at the end of a hot summers day, thats Brighton Seaworld that is!! :lol: (obviously funnier watching it than reading about it on a forum!)

What autobox fluid
We flush our boxes on Mercs this way as they suffer from the torque converter juddering due to contamination - this sorts them out & makes the box change so much smoother! Well worth it IMO :thumbup1:
