Our "new" system at work is cr@p. It's about 6-8 years out of date.

It's not even Windows based.

But we've been taken over by a different group and they are insisting we use their system despite ours being better in every single aspect.

The money I used to buy it was supposed to be a deposit on a house. I thought we weren't going to move for a while but we're getting crippled on the insurance etc and the car is attracting some dubious characters to the area so I want to move to a nicer place. I can afford to run it but I don't see the point in paying through the nose for insurance for the sake of a postcode.

Also, the profit we could make on our current house could maybe enable something like an RS4 to be sitting on the drive in a couple of years.

Hmmm. Dai had no interest in it for ages. I didn't have a single call about the Classic - not even a canvasser FFS.

Nobody is buying!

Have you tried ebay and put a reserve on it for what you will take? at least you can get an idea of interest

dont know if your trying to impress me but it dont work, its only money and thats not everything, life is the most important thing and the way you live it, and at the end of the day your projected earnings may be 42k but you drive a calibra
