Well the Germans know a thing or two about making .. Good cars (If you forget about the GM Opel sh*te)

I started doing it when shooting. From a prone position, holding a rifle, you can't see the dial face with it the "proper" way round. Wearing it this way means that you can see the time easily without having to put the rifle down. It's just been normal for me since.

Have a read of the environmental impact of making the Prius and the "Dust to Dust" cost. Also have a read about the "real world" performance compared to Toyota's claims. A prius is x4.5 more damaging that a Jeep Grand Cherokee .. A small VAG diesel will give better ecconomy. Have a quick scan of this thread : http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=635376 There are some good cheap(ish) cars being discussed there ..

Ewww ...

From another forum : E55 AMG mercs under

Could do what they did for the latter "fast and furious" films. Take photos of good engines, print them and then put the pics behind the grills etc of std cars.

I've been looking at all the wrist shots and I've been wondering, Am I the only one who wears my watch on the inside of my wrist? A pic of my cheap Storm daily beater.

Much like the 3000GT / GTO .. loads of tech, great cars, but the market has fallen out of the sportscar market. There really hasn't been much to replace all these cars. The 200sx (s15) is JDM only .. erm .. Toyota killed the Supra, GT4, MR2 and brought in the Aygo? Ohhh-kaaay ..

What is this RWG1/2 thing? I've done a quick search and found nothing. (Sorry for the noob question )

The cheaper NSXs are the 3.0 and auto (and usually in Red). Performance isn't the best (7+ secs 0-60), but they still do look the part. No rust issues either. The R32 GTR would be nice, expensive to maintain, but you do get the performance bonus. But as you say, getting long in the tooth. Non GTR versions are comon as hell, and typically thrashed. Classic sports cars like the 911 are not that bad, the air cooled ones are fairly reliable. Have a look a the clasifieds on PistonHeads.com (Just don't mention yuo like Replica watches, they'll tear you apart). They are a lot better than the classic Italian (Alfa, Ferrari, Fiat) equiv. It's easy to suggest stuff when it's not my money Of the moderns, the latest Mondeo got rave reviews (I'm personally not a Ford person). And the New Jag XJ (I think) is also nice. The bad BMW rep seems to be rubbing off onto Audi and Merc now. Merc had build issues about 5 years ago .. quality dropped. The Vaux Omega (now Signum?) was big and option packed, big depreciation though. The older deisel lumps were BWM sourced I believe.

Usually kids in their mums 1 litre saxos and corsas turn up, put the self serve trays under the rear wheels, pop the handbrake on, and wizz about the carpark like a bad replica of "Tokyo Drift". You can see the flashing lights, smoke and hear the thump of 15" subwoofers from miles away. Spectators are usually fat, clad in tracksuits, baseball caps, have bad tattoos, and have whispy facial hair .. and that's just the girls.

I'd avoid the Evo/Impreza group to be honest. Bad image unless you like McDonalds carparks at midnight. 300zx's are old now, and are expensive to work on (as you'll know). And then they are noting *that* special. If you are thinking old Japanese : early NSX, R32 GTR, Mk4 Supra? In the current climate I'd be looking for something more classic. 1970's 911? (befor the red braces got in there). What can I say though, I've a modded S2000 and a Hilux Surf .. A mate picked up a fully loaded RR Vogue with 4.4 V8 for

Well I've been looking on the net for a Breitling (or 4) for a while, trying to find a non-scamming dealer. I'd seen a loads of fake forums and review sites and was losing my hope of finding anywhere that was viable. I signed up here and had a read about (and the great reviews of dealers and the watches). I then saw an EU member selling a watch I was after cheap. I've paypaled the money, and the watch was posted to the UK today. Fingers crossed.

Good to see some names being mentioned for us UK noobs. Just trying to track down what I want now.

Maybe that's what they WANT you to think!

Thanks peeps. I've been having a look about, and I think I'll e breaking my cherry with a Breitling. Always been a fan. Looking at the Chrono Avenger at the moment. I've always wanted a Breitling Emergency, but the few reps I've seen are all Orange/Yellow faced and I'm not a fan.

Hey guys .. Just registered to get an idea about a few companies I'm looking at getting a watch from. Best to double check them before losing my money to some random. Ben.
