I might get banned for suggesting this one, since he's an "ex" member: Calibrax's old 620Ti Always had a soft spot for it. Shame he had to go and rear-end someone in it. Fairly sure he is still a member on here :) His Ti was savage. Yep, still a member! don't tend to post much nowadays, b...

I have an Advent 4213 (Intel Atom 1.6, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD), and it's great. I'm running Windows XP on it and I've had no trouble playing back DivX movies with it on my 37" LCD TV. It comes with WiFi, Bluetooth, a webcam, SD card reader, 3 USB ports, etc etc and it even has a sim card slot for m...

Read about 20 lines before I had to give up due to the txt speech and lack of anything remotely amusing... sorry, I just don't get it. Maybe I'm getting old! lol

Ironically, if they'd just left it alone and then quietly requested Google to remove the images, then nobody would have known or cared about their "affluent" village. As it is, they've been in every newspaper and on every news programme, and on thousands of sites, not just Google maps. So ...

I think Streetview is fabulous. Unfortunately the country is full of Luddites who just can't deal with the advancement of technology. The media certainly doesn't help. For example, the internet gets a lot of stick for being "evil" and "full of paedophiles and child pornography".....

While I was at university I got a christmas job at a local shop. I'd had my left ear pierced (two gold studs) and was told that to work there, they would have to be removed. So each morning I'd take them out, go to work, then put them back in after work. Soon got to the point that I just stopped wea...

Oh this is cool - the 75 and ZT owners club has it's meet the next day at RAF Cosford, so I can combine the two events

I agree that Brawn look good so far. Red Bull should do well also, that's an Adrian Newey design. McLaren don't look to hot at the moment, but they will turn it around. It could benefit Hamilton's reputation - until now he's had one of the best cars, if he can win with a dog of a McLaren (much like ...

I play guitar - self taught, I can play most chords and some basic blues solo stuff, but I'm certainly no Mark Knopfler or Eric Clapton...

I've come to realise that performance evaluations are arbitrary and a complete waste of time. I agree totally, desperate load of muck altogether, demotivates the companies workforce too, the mood in a place after they are rolled out is quite negative usually.

Company I work for makes us take the cheapest possible flights, but they do provide good accommodation, usually a hotel like the Hilton or Meridian (£100 per night plus). Car hire is covered. Expenses are supposed to be up to £35 per day for subsistence, but in most places you can eat VERY well on h...

The biggest ARSE is that any stock we have bought recently we would have paid 17.5% VAT for. I presume this will be taken into account when we sell it at 15% VAT? For stock it should be, yes. VAT should be paid by the end user, retailers should not pay any VAT on stock after input tax and output ta...

Here's the relevant bits from the official document... temporarily reducing the Value Added Tax (VAT) rate to 15 per cent with effect from 1 December 2008 to 31 December 2009; to offset the effects of the temporary reduction in VAT, increasing alcohol and tobacco duties, maintaining these increases ...

Great cars. Id love one, my old man has got an X plate 156 and even thats a great car, they just suffer niggley problems and people slate them for it. :) Hmmmm rings a bell, I seem to recall another manufacturer suffered from exactly the same problem, and then Longbridge was shut down... :roll: I s...

I can recall playing Quake II online on my 56k modem, my ping was always around 150-200ms on Freeserve, as the best servers were in the US - there were always a few people on cable connections over there who had pings of less than 10ms, which made them formidable opponents, especially with the railg...

You're kidding! It's great! I'm 73% through it now. The only slightly annoying thing is the amount of driving you have to do between missions, but the story, graphics and gameplay is fabulous.

Due to buying an MG ZT CDTi, the time has come to sell my 1997 P reg Rover 420SLDi. It's the saloon version in Anthracite (dark grey). Cat C registered due to someone scraping down the driver's and rear door, but the damage is just cosmetic, will need a vic check though (formality, about £35 I think...

Thanks for the nice comments guys :) Reef... happy to help convert your missus! Should make life easier at your next MGR purchase! Must admit, I think the ZT looks very different from the 75, and it does look particularly good in black... I dunno how I'm gonna survive the next few days just waiting ...

Today I bought a MG ZT CDTi+.... absolutely pristine condition, 70k miles, FSH etc. Pick her up next week. Can't wait! :mrgreen: http://www.calibrax.myby.co.uk/mgzt01.jpg http://www.calibrax.myby.co.uk/mgzt02.jpg http://www.calibrax.myby.co.uk/mgzt03.jpg http://www.calibrax.myby.co.uk/mgzt04.jpg
