Hi Spaceman- LOL, great cars, I really enjoy looking at cars and discussing their merits....so after careful consideration the only thing which I can say about them truthfully is 'Great colours'.
Good morning Fundamentalist, coffee and bacon sarnie on it's way.

Spacie... all too new for me I'm afraid, apart from the Porsche, although I do prefer the early 911 air cooled turbos. Don't own anything post 1986 (with one exception) although I do have the misfortune to drive more modern vehicles if I'm not very careful! Regarding multiple vehicles per person - my point exactly, you can only ever drive one vehicle at a time and in my case I rarely manage to have them all running at any one point, so I need spare vehicles for when the others need some TLC.
Bluey, me kind and polite? You've got to be kidding ;-)

JS, in fact 2 of mine are not running at the moment (944s and A6) but they only have minor issues that I will sort out this week. What cars do you have ?
The pictures above are not my actual cars although the 944s is exactly the same as mine, my A6 is a 1.8T base model with different wheels but it is green and my R32 is silver. The R32 has DSG and is a fantastic car to drive.

Sorry nothing fancy, in process of trying to find a 1978 pontic transam and a 60's Mustang Fastback, but both have to be manual's

JS, That sounds like a fun stable.
Is the 85 V8 an original build or a conversion of some sort? (army)

Hi Spaceman, How do you do the photos? It seemed so easy using the top far right button except it comes up as blank when previewed and when posted. Is the ability to download photo images only allowed for those posters with more than two cars?
Or an upgrade in MAM services?

Spacie, the V8 started out as a basic 2.3 straight 4. I bought it when I was 15 and have been 'improving' her continuously. The 3.5 V8 went in a couple of years back, and then last year I did some large modifications to the whole vehicle to improve power and economy. So she's definitely a hybrid with more extras planned as time allows!
Bunny, yeah I know it's sad, but believe me, they can't talk back and they're always ready to play. I only have to go and turn the key in the V8 and it puts a huge smile on my face or alternatively get the GT held in a nice drift (obviously not on public roads) to make me feel alive. Believe me, when asked which was more important, her or the cars, it took a lot of effort to say the right thing!
Mug of tea anyone?

Well I can understand that JS - I remember having the same problem myself except the 'other party' wasn't cars in my case but my moggies ;>)

Now I know why Uma is still with spacenick - I used to have a 944 - penis red with gold wheels - very tasteful - and perfect for the trade I used to be in. Unfortunately, tried to add a Ford Fiesta to the front, but it didn't fit, so it is available for spares if you're interested superspacestud. I'll accept swaps - especially if Uma is available.
Haven't had a reply from the MoneyAM management, MP or that bloke who writes about stuff in the Sunday Mail.
Will write another email to the Prime Minister, President of the USA and Director General of the UN if I don't hear back in the next 30 minutes.

Bunny, you see it all makes sense somehow!!! Although what doesn't make sense is how a family of rabbits can live with cats, unless you've got a Peter Rabbit type understanding going on?!

You lot spend far too much time in the coffee house, get a job.
Then you can get paid and use your company computer to spend time in the coffee house

BlueLady posting pics is available to all, it is the right hand button but the picture must be hosted somewhere with public access, so it cant be on your PC for example.
JS, does it twist a bit with all that power.
mgbgt, that fiesta graft sounds familiar, I hit a rust bucket in my 944 when the rust bucket stopped suddenly and I didnt, the 944S (note the S!) was not harmed much but the rust bucket fell apart and was written off by his insurance company. He then tried to get me to buy him a new car, he didnt get far with that though!
By the way the colour of your car isnt familiar 'penis red with gold wheels' was it a special pimps edition? I hope it had dark tints as well.
I suggest that you address your complaint to someone with a bit of influence like Rupert Murdock, writing to washed up has-beens like the PM or the President of the US is just a waste of time.
Is my grammar OK? of is that the subject of another thread? I dont want the grammar police in the cafe, we already have enough trouble with the health and safety people and the VAT man.

Hi Spaceman,
All the help threads I saw was in the upgraded MAM. The image I am posting is in the public domain. I click on the top far right link and then do what it tells me ie insert script prompt and enter URL of image but still comes up with a blank!!!
Please do a step by step of the process when you find time, thanking you in advance kind sir.

Ah both moggies and bunnies live in harmony here after all the former knows who feeds them and that helps ;>)
Yes I thought the colour of mg's car sounded a bit odd - I thought a description like that meant an imminent trip to the quack! ;>)

Bluelady, you need the full URL including the name of the picture file, the link you posted only has the site URL.
It should be something like:
http://www.bonthronebikes.co.uk/picture.jpg
Your one is just:
http://www.bonthronebikes.co.uk/
does that help?
