  1. Great job., need to do mine as well and its also black always looks good when properly cleaned. Just an observation...it would look better with a "stubby"
  2. He wasn't on a test..he was a qualified Captain who was converting to 777 and had to have so many hours as a trainee. There was a qualified 777 Captain teaching him, but they got it wrong..
  3. Not the suspension then. WD40 all moving parts of the boot, hinges locks etc..
  4. Might be the suspension and not the boot..
  5. Welcome to the Forum. . I had a VR6 loved the wail of the exhaust.
  6. Skyline, a trainee 777 pilot was flying at the time and he came in to low, and ripped the tail section off by landing short of the runway :scare:
  7. And welcome to the Forum, glad it worked.
  8. There is a small button on the side that you press in and slide the unit open. It extends and then fit the Bluetooth unit into the cradle. I have an instruction book which I can email to you.if you still have a problem.

  10. Media playback is unsupported on your device Police from eastern Europe are helping British police tackle crime Eastern European police help tackle crime in Britain 17 July 2013 Last updated at 10:04 BST Police officers from Poland, Romania and Lithuania are out on patrol in the UK to help clamp down on criminal gangs from eastern Europe. They have been working alongside British police forces, checking cars and their drivers to see if they are wanted for offences in their home countries. So far they have made over 50 arrests. Jo Black reports.
  11. Nicking cars has gone hi-tech. Last week an Essex villain was busted in London for stealing more than 150 cars worth nearly £4million. It was the biggest car theft ring the Met’s stolen car squad had ever seen. But Mr Essex isn’t the only crim at it. If your car has an electronic key or keyless entry system, you’re at risk. Eastern European gangs are targeting virtually every BMW, particularly 320 and 330 M Sport models, keyless Fiestas, Audi Q7s, Range Rovers, even Mercedes Sprinter and Transit vans. The scam is simple. Crims buy car-key programming devices (the internet is full of them) and pick their victim. As the innocent motorist tries to lock the car, the signal is blocked by an RF jammer. The punter walks away, unknowingly leaving the car open, the crim then plugs an information reader into the onboard diagnostic socket and reprograms a blank key and drives it away. Most vans end up in Poland and Lithuania. Cars are broken into parts and shipped round the world, while high-end stuff goes to Russia. The only defence is a steering column lock, like Krooklok or Autolok. A visible anti-theft lock will make any blagger think again. The problem centres around easily-bought key programmers. Key data is available because EU law says manufacturers have to share technical info with independent garages ...and reprogramming blank keys is easy. Some insurance companies aren’t paying out because a key has been used and claim it’s the owner’s fault. Another scam is if you see a note under the wiper of your posh wheels from a motorist who’s dinged your car, don’t accept his offer of a dent bloke to sort it out. He’ll come, fix the scratch and slip in a key reader. A month later your pride and joy’s gone. Park near CCTV, or where there are plenty of people, and double-check your car has locked itself. And remember, if you’re leaving it somewhere vulnerable, put on a steering wheel lock. I REST MY CASE EKONA. THE ABOVE IS FROM MY LOCAL PAPER.
  12. Just an update for the skeptical among us, today the Insurance Accessor confirmed that 85% of BMW,s stolen in the UK are to order by Eastern European gangs. Also their latest is target is "white vans" and as many motorcycles as they can get in one before it goes into the container...!!!! :scare:
