Its one of the most expensive places to go, its the playground for the rich and famous so nothing is cheap out there. My cousin works out there selling VAG cars and they go for a high premium.

Each dealer makes profit from different things, VW have a huge mark up on cars but Seat dealers dont, they make money on the back end. If they sell 200 cars every 3 months they get a big bonus from Seat. So there cars are all sold at rock bottom prices to make up the numbers, they make next to...

That was just an example of how many jobs are at stake, Saab and Vauxhall are in a lot of trouble because GM see them as a burden.

Its all smoke and mirrors, cars are always stacked up on old air fields, they are only there a few days till they are picked up. The government want us to go out buying cars so they take less of a blow bailing them out. Useless sales staff is nothing new, ive got friends queuing up to spend...

Crossroads was one of my all time top tunes till blazin squad butchered it :lol::lol: Gotta say though, seeing this for what it is and without rose tinted glasses ;) it shows they really do have a talent and its well thrown together, I like it, I wouldnt buy it though as its not my cup of...

Hopefully Brawn can hold off the competition but id imagine Ferrari will have new diffusers in the oven as I type this and will do a 1-2 at the weekend.

A bit of drain pipe - I think we have a winner :thumbs::thumbs:

Its longer than the car and the car cant have a roof rack as its a convertable. I was thinking of covering it in cardboard but im screwed if it rains and cant stand it if i do that.

My dad left an 18 foot spear at my grans and its my job to shift it, I was going to tape up the end and walk home with it but the local plod say this would be illegal, normally I would just go ahead and do it but my gran wont let me (im 27 grrrr!!). It wont fit in the car nor the van I have...
