      I missed it...! How many cars went through the tyres at the chicane I wonder.

      None from what i could fathom and none ended up in the cornfield either. It was a honda 1-2 for the first two and plato won the third because he punted collard out of the way. Collard would have done the same thing though!

      Rob doesn't forget though, he'll shuve plato off when Plato needs the points most...! MG better watch their mirrors closely.

      Nikon are the Mercedes of camera manufacturers. There is just something so right about their product.

      I should also point out my first camera was a Canon T70, then EOS500, EOS300D EOS350D EOS1100D. Cant say i wasnt a Canon man. So far the the D3100 has performed well with the shots i took outside earlier on.

  6. Canon or Nikon SLR?

      PITA. I actually do a commute that doesn't trouble a DPF but am back to a petrol anyway.

      Id never have a merc (our fleet manager hates them with a passion, too expensive and unreliable with a poor diesel engine (we had some C classes a few years ago after having had mondeos for years, they werent highly regarded compared to the mondeos)). Id be better of using the wifes Focus RS. Done 23k and never put a foot wrong, shes also only on her second set of front rubbers. Can you tell im a blue oval man?

  8. Has just recieved my new fleet car. A Honda Civic 2.2DTEC. The designers of this vehicle and engine should have unspeekable things happen to him!

      in the week ive had it its been the local honda dealer every day with some fault. Also the rear wing halfway across the rear windscreen? Whats all that about? Im just pleased the fleet lease has taken mine as well as two others back (between three cars theyve logged 24 faults) and given me a Golf 2.0 Bluemotion SE :D

      Sorry to hear that - best hang on to my 5-yr old 1.8vtec one then...

      The guy who lives opposite us is a Honda Sales Manager and he said the new civic is brilliant when it works, trouble is most dont. He told me they went through 9 demonstrators before they got one that worked ok. And people tell me Hondas are reliable? Im normally a blue oval man but with their pricing going through the roof our fleet department is going german.

  9. Even though there is no snooker on live feed at the moment. I still have the theme tune playing away!

  10. I believe that even pigs and DC10s can fly!

  11. Census form done. Website worked fine. Amazing!

  13. Do i go N or OO. It really is the $64Bn question?

    1. F1p

      F1p

      N - models are much better and you can pack in so much more in a good sized space.

    2. G-DIMB

      its a good point. Trouble is i have 10 thumbs.

      If you have $64bn I would go for the WCML in 5" gauge live steam in a bespoke aircraft hanger...
