  1. Yes. Next question please...... The phone gubbins are in the headunit.
  2. And about 1000 non activated members were wiped out when we moved to here from the old site too!
  3. I'm pretty sure that marriages have been broken up by the practical jokes offshore. I mean it's one thing tie wrapping ALL someones belongings to the roof an hour before their chopper arrives or filling their boots with dye so their feet go green for a month or signing up their email address to every porn site you can find and quite another doing something that involves wives / girlfriends. And yes I might have done the first three before..... and more.

    No 350Z for me

    Fear enough you are entitled to your opinion but could you expand a bit on what you mean by the typical people that drive one? the general image that the 80's yuppy era attached to the Porsche, that its almost a badge of having success in life. This is Porsche's biggest problem. They still can't shake this stereotype of stock brokers with big quiffs driving 911's, even 25 years on. For some reason people stick all their negative opinions of Porsche solely on the Boxster, which is weird in my opinon as the boxster is surely a sign that Porsche are trying NOT to be elitist and opening up their brand to more and more of us, and not just the w_nkers in braces from the big smoke. They all drive Hyundai i10s now though seeing as they lost all their (and our) money.
  5. I wouldn't see myself out of work just to avoid a little confrontation with the management. When I found out we were being downsized (I knew who'd be going straight off however) I had my CV updated and an appointment with a recruitment agency booked within the hour. I told my boss that too. Being nice doesn't pay the mortgage. There is no harm looking for something else, you don't have to use it as a threat. If you enquire and find their is plenty work out there then maybe you'll relax. If there isn't then maybe you need to put out a few feelers.
  6. Is it a keyfob with a battery? I have had an issue in the past with my landie immobiliser not switching off. I took the dash to bits and cleaned up the connectors etc on the receiver side. Works ok now.
  7. I'm pretty sure it'll be bcause Ross uses a shared computer offshore. Believe me, the last thing you want is to hav auto log in on ANYTHING! I have heard (and seen) some horrific jokes played as someone has left email addresses in view or a computer logged in to some account or another.

    If it's a hassle already then it's no more hassle if it's lower......
  9. One thing we've all discovered here is that it's very much location, location, location. If you live in the ghetto you pay muchos bucks for insurance. If you live in pleasantville it's pretty cheap!
  10. You can see mine too...... It's not the first thing that grabs your attention though.
  11. Nowhere that I'm aware of. Leeds is closest. Sometimes you have to travel though - unfortunately for us that are North of the Border!
  12. Here's a link to the latest competition. No entry requirements, just reply to the thread! viewtopic.php?f=16&t=33724

    No 350Z for me

    I looked at a boxster S too. I still like them but couldn't justify the extra insurance etc at the time. I don't regret buying the 350Z one bit though!

  15. What size of 888s are you running?
  16. If they are anything like me at 10 they will be complete petrol heads!
  17. Thanks for supporting the forum everyone. 5000 maybe doesn't seem a huge amount but when you consider the number of Zeds on the road it is really impressive! Keep an eye out for the competition coming VERY soon - it's a cracker!
  18. Could easy meet you John. Probably leave about 10 but I'll confirm it with you tomorrow. I'm guessing it starts at 12...
  19. There are a number of owners running these here! Got good reports from this side of the channel too.
  20. Mmmmm kranzle! I have pressure washer envy now!
  21. Hell no! Well unless you used 20 - 30mm spacers. They aren't good offsets and I doubt they'd clear the brakes - although I'm not sure about that.
  22. My team was cut last year. The 4 of us were put on the chopping block. I do a job that 4 people in the world do.... I work for a large multi national and our competitors are about 5 years behind us in my particular line of work - in fact we're so far they haven't even created the job role yet! Nobody is indispensable. Oh, and if the company think you are indispensable then you'll never get promotion either! Everything happens for a reason, if you stay - good on you. If you don't then it's just one of these things..... I'd keep an eye out for available posts just in case.
  23. It was designed on one of our members cars! There is a thread about it. I haven't heard it or seen it in the flesh on a 370 yet though.
  24. I could probably take a look for you. I'm not an expert though.
  25. Great deal if the camera is over £8k!
