Nice and easy run today guys. Thanks again Ken.

Side note, was just told this by my friend.

"Highway patrol officers have used unmarked police cars for years.

But the latest scheme sees a range of high performance sports vehicles including Ford Falcon Typhoons and Suburu Impreza WRXs patrolling the streets.

The vehicles are fitted with the latest accessories and are in a range of colours - some even sporting "P" plates - to fit in with vehicles commonly associated with car hoons."

They are going to some pretty good lengths to get people these days.

They are indeed, I see them almost everyday on my trek down the coast and back. Sorry I didn't make it guys, really wanted to come but was feeling a touch under the weather following what turned out to be a pretty big nite on Saturday.

I really think it is wrong. It really is fraud. If we did that we could be up for charges etc.

sorry guys am a newbie here so no return of the old and bold here but am definately getting into the mini scene. I am from the north side of brissy and only got my first mini (although have been wanting one since they came out in 2001) in june this year.

I am absolutely loving "parky" and cannot drive her enough. Just had a batch if decals sent over from the uk, from minipirate and am chuffed with how it turned out. Pics in my gallery.

Anyhoo you will find me loitering around here quite a bit from now

All my tuning stuff will turn up tomorrow!!!! Thank god. Took it out for a spin today and all is running OK. I also dropped a set of HID's in it today and what a difference that makes. So easy to install as well. From pulling it out of the box to turning them on took me about 30mins!!!
