  1. The name Custer springs to mind so I am saying nothing to upset the locals.
  2. Must have your own mini climate in Surrey, its tish in Essex. Then again its still above water
  3. Could have bought the whole of Tor ry for that then. and the 19th hole. Stick to the Thames now, a lot more temperate ( usually!).
  4. Been there seen it done it puked on the t shirt mate. Three years on anchor handlers in the 80s. Now in them days the waves were really big.... Many happy night in Torrymelinos!!! All the best mate
  5. I got the same problem here although a little closer to shore I suspect. GPRS link too so probably better without piccies, would take all day. Which field you at?
  6. Makes good sense, I have lived in many countries and have always HAD to conform to their rules. Bit too late over here I fear.
  7. Tell me about it, getting my black roadster detailed today/tomorrow then have 320 mile drive home. Think I will just photo it and put it back in the box for next year. Glad I bought a roadster
  8. Nice one Mark, think we may need club fleeces if this weather continues. Are you up in Bowness on weekend of 14th. I am hoping to get down to Cheshire on the Sat lunchtime.
  9. Sounds like the B car to me, also get the impression that this is the one you want. Its been pretty lightly driven and has what you want. At this sort of price a grand here or there isny a lot so go for B
  10. I would like to think that they have better things to do with their time such as catching villains with altered plates. I would like to think this but am not convinced.
  11. About as defo as one can be. Subject to normal disasters.
  12. Ive done 60 to 0 in 1 second a couple of times and that hurts
  13. Big difference is price of parts should you need them. Bit like cars, up front price aint everything.
  14. I wanted to borrow on my property over here to finance a project abroad but couldnt find a lender that would do it. I used a mortgage advisor who sorted me out very quickly. I got the right product at the right price. He even cut his fee because I knew exactly what I wanted so his job was easier. Just to balance the discussion a little. Know what you want and what you dont.
  15. I have bought and sold many times in the UK as well as abroad. The one thing that reains constant is that as the client, you want it done yesterday. I have also conveyanced one house myself. As with buying cars or anything the best recommendation is from other customers. At least in this country there are strict codes so at least you are covered in case of major mistakes. Try buying in Spain, thats real fun. Longest sale I had was 6 months but that mainly due to the buyers lender running around with the goalposts as he was self employed. The one that really amuses me is asking for the balance due to the seller on the key day, apparently solicitors are too busy to sign cheques quickly. Best of luck and I am sure some more qualified comments will follow
  16. Do you think its time to change the styling so it looks nw. I am not a big fan so dont look too closely so unless the performance is lots better I wouldnt give either a second glance.
  17. Need more info mate, you been using my keyboard??? What do you need to polish?
  18. Dont worry, it gets easier as you get older, I frequently have attractive young girls in the roadster nowadays, problem is they are either my sons friends or my mates daughters cadging lifts, I have sat nav so I can remember where I live
  19. Nixy, Pleeaasseee remember when handling them, they are MIRRORS, dont break them, you dont need it after recent events!
  20. Public hangings are a bit dodgy though with kilts!!!
  21. Steve is going to have a go at it iver the next few days as he has had a cancellation. Wll drop you a pm before I go to collect it.
  22. Had a similar experience in Scotland recently and would have been in real trouble with the sherrif but one of his assistants put in a good word. I was really angry in fact. I shot the sheriff but I didnt shoot his deputy.
