      While waiting is painful and sometimes difficult, purchase in haste and repent at leisure.

      wise words sir, potentially disastrous, but better to regret what one has done...

      Regret doing something; don't regret not doing something. ?

  9. Ate grass yesterday, twisting my ankle, falling face first onto my lawn. lucky it was dry so the lawn was not so damp, but then again, slipped only because of the shrunken lawn vs the path. 

  10. Being denied an inheritance sucks. especially when it involves a BMW. :sigh:

      Q7s haven't appealed to me, but I know people who have been very happy with them.

  16. First word Problems, but the bosses are hogging the Veuve Clicquot... 

  17. Flipping Cars, Like Flipping houses ,Should have a capital gains tax on it. 

  18. Got head hunted this morning. Salary is 10% less than my current but has a car included on top (worth 17k) and commissions. wonder if i could just get that 17k in cash... as i have a nice car. :lol:  all in all it is probably not worth it, as the current place is quite cruisy.

      Bear i mind that this is the opening offer.
      You can say "I'm interested, but..."

  19. HAH! Co-worker is planning to resign this week. Probably resents me for my long holiday

  20. Happy New Year all! may the new year be filled with the good oil and easy maintenance. 

  21. Happy New Year Folks!

      Take solace in that you are not alone...

  23. I have until the first week of December to find a car.... too much time and the lust isn't abated, will i be on the edge for the next 5 months?

      BozzaFC

      What sort of car are you after?

    2. lord_jagganath

      lord_jagganath

      that's the best part, i don't know. ideally diesel, would be a clean F11 or a E70 X5, or any E or ML, but would be reluctant to go over 20k. i suppose i could turn the thumbscrews down on dealers in November/December when they are under pressure to sell. 

  24. I keep missing the forest for the trees. sometimes luck is about taking chances.
