I can recommend a few people in Tauranga, but I'll get back to you next week once I'm back at work about some people to contact in Auckland! Good luck!

Spent Christmas with some friends down in Galatea claybird shooting, hunting, fishing and driving the backroads. New Years in Tauranga was fairly average, drank a LOT of Jagermeister (2 bottles + most of a bottle of sambuca) at a friends party before we all got a taxi to the mount, got in a couple of fights because my best friend was on ecstacy hasselling a bunch of skinheads, almost got arrested after beating the crap out of aforementioned skinhead. Broke my hand jumping someones back fence, Missus was in tears because she thought I'd been killed for some reason. Got back home at 5:30am where a bunch of us continued to drink until mid afternoon on new years day... spent the next 2 days recovering. All in all it was a fairly fun holiday... back to work on monday =[

Those are some pretty gangster tail lights. Going the massive chromes, ground scraping, sideways white cap wearing route?

If you've got good general accounting knowledge then pretty much any accounting package is easy to pick up, I've worked largely with J.D Edwards systems (p.o.s) as an entire customised package in a job with a lot of inventory work. For someone with no accounting knowledge that only wants to do the very minimal of accountancy jobs (e.g, a mechanic or plumber who works by himself from home) then I think MYOB would be ideal. However, for someone with some accounting knowledge that wants to be able to make financial reports, manage payroll, due date and unpaid bills, completely electronic invoicing and purchasing and still have plenty more options when it comes to adapting the software to their business.. all in an easy to use software package.. then Quickbooks wins hands down. It's about as close as you can get to a custom designed program without going into 5 figures. The higher levels of Quickbooks especially. I've got an un-opened un-used copy of the previous version of Quickbooks that you may be able to have for cheap. Edit: Quickbooks Premier 06' ... as listed here: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000B8NFHQ/ Never got around to updating from the earlier Quickbooks.. but I've just ordered the 07' copy.

Quickbooks is the best small business accounting program I've used. I found MYOB to be less flexible and adaptable.

It's even easier to change the numbers on an electronic counter than an analog one =] Having driven my mum's E46 320 sedan, I wouldn't go for anything smaller than a 325.

For that money.. how much cooler would a twin turbo V12 E30 be

Worlds fastest mandarin..

5k? Female past times such as an M50B25?

Yes it's true, Either make boxes to fit them in, or spacers so that they fit on the parcel tray without cutting the metal. (raises the mounting surface of the speaker an inch or so above the parcel tray surface)

If you've already got the metal sunroof.. would it be easier to get a piece of glass cut and drilled for the fittings to replace it?

Bonnet FTW.

Your parents are aware of everything? You've talked it through with them? Shown them the forums?

Those BBS's would look kickass on Hybrids Turbo M325i

I didn't think you liked American V8's =]

Nicest M3 I've ever seen. Tasty tasty brakes and wheels.

Yeh I just found one that looks like a light keying down almost the entire drivers side of my car. It's only just light enough to mark the paint.

Cool! Sorta made me think that a convertible 2 door E39 M5 would look pretty awesome.

Yeh, the dirty great front mount isn't a give away at all! Wheels look awesome man, car is a beast!

Coombes Dealer or Mike Dean Automotive coz He's 5 minutes down the road from Me. Cheers, give me a wave next time!

Three Friday nights ago =] last speedbump before Grace Ave on Marine Parade. Red Toyota Hilux.

Sure would. Might be loan time next year I think. New Years Resolution: stop the 318iS being smoked by FXGT's and 1500 V-Tec's.

Yeh, gotta do something about the big gap behind the bumper too. Mesh.. Or a frontmount attached to a GT2830.

Yeh, I don't know whether they'd attach to the factory bumper though.. A tasteful lip coupled with dropping the front an inch or so would do wonders to relieve the 4wd stance it's flaunting in the 4th photo down.
