  1. In preparation for a Scottish jaunt I would appreciate thoughts on two way radios so we can communicate between six cars

     

    Looking at value for money guide price £30 ish per unit, may be flexible but use this.

    Concerned about range given the terrain

     

    As an example the Motorola T60 @ £60 a pair with 8km range would seem better value than the retevis h777 @ £28 a pair with 2.5km range.

    Also need to consider in car charger v's base charge overnight

    True hands free for any solo drivers

     

    Thanks

     

  2. If in doubt always blame a defenseless inanimate object that cannot even stand up for itself. Hope the wall is okay !

     

    Regards the Scotland trip, I must look out your email and part with some money (not that I have much of that at the moment - never a good idea to buy my son a mini, me a 370Z and buy a flat all at the same time !)

  3. GB logo and a border always look good, personally prefer perspex (easier to keep clean) GB means if you ever drive in Europe you don't have to put the horrible sticker on.

     

    PS Surely you should be focusing on the Z ready for Scotland !

  4. If you like what they have at a price you are happy to pay Go in with your eyes open, pay what you would be prepared to pay privately, don't expect anything other than what you see in front of you and don't expect them to do anything you ask, then you won't go far wrong.

     

    They are a dealer with a bad rep on here for not doing the little extra bits, but that doesn't mean the cars are bad, also remember, you have more rights when you buy from a dealer

  5. I remember on of my family members saying they saw a jag XF police car, not sure if its an active patrol car or again a publicity car.

     

    Quite often see jag XF's both marked and unmarked on M40/42

     

    Also a rather tatty Octavia VRS in black, Leicester area.

     

    Way back I remember seeing Sierra Cosworth's in the North East, The boys in blue will use a variety of unmarked cars so you don't see them coming cos otherwise what's the point.

  6. I had two small glasses of Merlot with a meal in a restaurant over 3 hours yesterday, used one of the disposable testers which showed up clear, They can't be trusted and are not to be relied upon. (My wife was driving, we just did the test because I had a few testers in the car)

     

    I do have sympathy for o.p. friend but everyone knows the law, if you choose to take the risk you have to be prepared for the consequences, it's not just your own life/job at risk and i'm not sure I would want to risk my future on 1 hour for every unit theory !!
