I wouldn't assume it's too good to be true....an utter no mark from our company got a job on 10k a month and he was just a monkey like me

Yes mate - little sticker dooferaters are the best bet. Hellfrauds sometimes do 3 for 2 on driving abroad equipment

This is what happens after said balls are lopped off

try a search - loads of threads with good info.

Belated buuuuurfday!

don't know its sold now so can be closed. It doesn't even mention one off in the ad

Sorry mate....bloody iPad. I mean often they won't but always worth an argument!

Often but buggers wont pay unless the shaft collapses or affects how the car runs......an annoying click doesn't always cut it.

What's one off about it?

I had a dross budget and ended up bagging a minter.. Early JDM with less than 30k.. No body damage just a few bits... In the end of the day an early jdm is about your money.. Infact Ive changed my mind dont bother looking... Its gonna be a total drain on your cash and never get chanve to enjoy such a great but expensive as it is to run motor.. Eh? You had a 7k budget and as of yesterday you hadn't bought anything......or am I missing something?

Best bet is prob to look for one with a metal case. I've had a little peek round but there's not much doing. Makita (the toolmaker) so a pretty heavy duty portable radio but it only mentios iPod dock not IPhone

If the wing is repairable then around 150, wheel 150, tyre 100, 30 smart repair to remove dent on the door. Then about another 500 when you realise that you bent the suspension to smithereens in about 2 months time. Just get a claim in mate.......especially as the vw will undoubtedly end up with some sort of 'injury'. Just find out how bad is actually affect your premium.....might not be too bad.

15 min drive away.....worth a peek if your looking at the utter dross end of the market IMHO. Expect problems though

Shazzam it you whopper!

I like it.....it's different

That's because it was probably a northern version ChrisI who programmed the wrong link into the page!

have a good one mate

Not the new gtr is it?

Hope my comment didn't come across as a bit 'off' - wasn't calling you a compo **** so no worries I'm loving the email exchange and think it's an inspiration to us all! Anyhoo, I've been given the nickname 'the rottie' for growling loudly at the complaints department. And I'm pretty proud of the fact that I haggle at M&S Haha of course not.....but it's worth making clear that my fight is against the incompetent world not the chinks in the systems armour. Haggling in m&s is pretty impressive!

I thought that was a really good compromise actually and fair play .....they could have insisted on cancellation so good on them (although it still took some pushing from the initial response) Squee I never push for more than I feel is reasonable (refund if fees are unacceptable etc) but its the incompetence of the world at large I object too. For example I'd never fall down a hole like a clumsy ***** or spill a cup of scolding hot coffee on myself and think anything other than 'you complete and utter clumsy *****......pick yourself up and RUN before someone sees you'.

Bit more boring than my usual fayre but I'm in work.......its 28 degrees in the office and I'm bored.

As you may know me and Carla went to Majorca last week - this was booked a few weeks prior via http://www.onthebeach.com. Basically the way their site works is you click on a hotel to view it and on the pop up they have loads of information and links to Tripadvisor for independant reviews. So imagine my delight when I found a 4 star spa hotel rated 3rd best of 30 in Sa Coma for a measly £350 for both of us!!!! The Blau Mediteraneo Hotel! However after visiting the Blau website cheer myself up one morning it became clear that I had made a grievous error..... Blau Mediteraneo Hotel - 4 star........3rd best in resort Blau Mediteraneo Club - 3 star verminous grim gulag...........17th best in resort. Couldn't work out how I'd made the mistake but it became clear that they had linked the Hotels Tripadvisor page to the Clubs booking page. The following is the email exchange Dear Mr Rice, Thank you for contacting us. I have looked into your booking and can confirm that you are booked into the Blau Mediterraneo Club as per the hotel selected on our website. I have also checked our website and can confirm it stated that you were booking the Blau Mediterraneo Club apartments. The description and photographs shown are also for the apartments. I can see that the trip advisor link does say hotel and I have advised our IT department to update this. I apologise if you were unaware you were booking the apartments, however this is the hotel that was indicated. I have checked the Blau Mediterraneo Hotel and they do not have any self catering facilities. As they are a hotel they only supply bed and breakfast, half board etc. Unfortunately we do not have availability for the dates you require. Best Regards, Howard. Hi Howard, Many thanks for taking the time to look into this although I feel you may have missed the crux of my complaint (for clarity please acknowledge that this is now a complaint). I have no dispute that the hotel I purchased is the hotel showing in my booking confirmation. My dispute is that my purchase was based on the independent reviews that you had linked to your website (provision of independent comparable information) which suggested that this hotel was of a very high standard and independently was ranked by my travelling peers as the 4th best hotel in the resort of Sa Coma (i.e a different hotel). As it turns out following a chance encounter with the Blau website some days after booking it became apparent that there are 2 Blau complexes in Sa Coma and I was in fact (after further research) booked into the Club which has many negative reviews, is an inferior hotel and is ranked a lowly 17th of 30 hotels in Sa Coma. The hotel you had linked to the Blau Mediteranio Club was the Blau Mediteranio Hotel – I firmly believe it is unreasonable to expect me to question the integrity of your websites data based on this discrepancy (only difference being ‘Hotel’ and ‘Club). One would not assume that they were 2 different places. I’ll give you an example of what you have done to me and see what you think Howard – I’m going to sell you a car - here’s the car I’m selling to you for £15,000 (click this *can't put hyperlink on forum but it linked to this *can't put hyperlink on forum but it linked to this[/b]

Does it have to be in the UK? what about driving to Hockenhiem or Nurburg for 3/4 days in the Zed? This time of year it will be a beautiful drive.........swing back through Baden Baden and the Black Forest. Or if your not fussed on the Motorsport idea then go do Brugges - nicest place I think I've ever been to and only an hour or 2 off the ferry.
