agreed realplayer is pretty good and converts the files to mp3/mp4s pretty quick

that solves the problem if he was going to scrap it or not...apparently he wasn't

i thought they had landed on the roof..turns out the camera had just broken out of place lol still didn't look like a major crash though

im free (with many thanks to youtube aha)

i gave up im using a walkthrough >.<

im confused haha got 2 batteries, a key and the test tube lol

no idea but thought it could be useful as i know some of you use some of the 'other' types of number plates think of it as an early warning for those if you do ever get caught with them

ok just read this on the mini forum so though might be of use on here if it isn't already known Ok, apologies if this has been posted already, these rules aren't new, but they way there are now being enforced is. "As from 9 June 2009 DVLA have implemented a new system for reporting Illegally displayed VRNS (vehicle registration numbers). Prior to that the Cop who pulled you over had a number of methods of disposal, ranging from doing nothing, through to Fixed Penalties and Defect Rectification Notices. There was also a very long and complicated system where if the cop took a picture of the VRN then posted it with a long form to the DVLA they would perhaps if the wind was blowing the right way on a wet Tuesday maybe write to the keeper and tell them off. NO LONGER The DVLA have realised that most ops Traffic included won’t issue fixed penalties or spend hours filling in forms and have brought in the following system. On receipt of a now A4 size form and a copy of the photograph of the offending VRN the DVLA will now write to the registered keeper and give them 28 days to correct the defect AND then provide them (DVLA) photographic evidence of this. On the 29th day they will automatically DEREGISTER your vehicle, if you do provide such proof you will get a letter back saying thank you if it happens again we will deregister the vehicle without warning. Now having your vehicle deregistered is a real pain it means a day off to the local DVLA office to re register it, getting your tax, mot and insurance changed to your new allocated number because you won’t get your old one back (remember you don’t own your plate, just the rights to display it legally) if it cost thousands it’s a ###### they will just auction it off again. You can’t drive the car in this time mind you. Now the bit which will make it a success for them is the vehicle does not have to be stopped for this photo to be taken it can be a CCTV or ANPR camera still image. Attached is the link to the DVLA regulations for VRNs http://www.dvla.gov.uk/media/pdf/leaflets/v796.pdf Be aware in this legislation if the owner is claiming an exemption i.e. pre 01092001 the onus is on the keeper to prove that the plate was manufactured before that not the other way round, this is because plates are considered consumable items and likely to frequent change."

who knows, either way it got to 5800..which for a 20p deemed to be worth around 50quid, is pretty ridiculous

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=180370987091 (sorry the link thing wasnt working properly so just copy and paste) this is the 5grander one lol

yeh one went on ebya for around 5800 it was. saw the link for it. around 75 bidders on it

won't beat the original transformers but for what it is it is pretty good..yet to see the second one though. First one was better than I had expected though

try some needle nose pliers to get the wire through, then use some bigger pliers to pull at the wire? that might work

i have more photos of other cars than my own can't have too many photos

lol wouldn't go as far as heartbreaking lol. must say for a 1.4 at 19 with 1/2 years no claims 500 quid insurance is pretty damn low specially on fully comp
