    Send us some pics James! Tons of my friends had beetles. My best friend is up in Brisbane with a '73 (?) Kombi pop-top with a surfboard strapped on top, a mountain bike on the back, and all his worldly posessions (including a Mac G4) inside. He's my role model for the perfect life. cheers, Chris Maunder (CodeProject)

Kombi (South African word that!) parked behind and a good braai (sorry, barbey) on the beach. Hey, reminds me of a couple of beach bumbs that hang around our beaches... hehe regards, Paul Watson Cape Town, South Africa e: paulmwatson@email.com w: vergen.org

      The bus is for the short trips, I take the train for longer journeys even though with the current state of the rail network sometimes the train companies have to provide a bus :-) Michael :-)

          mas·och·ism (ms-kzm) n.

          • The deriving of sexual gratification, or the tendency to derive sexual gratification, from being physically or emotionally abused.
          • The deriving of pleasure, or the tendency to derive pleasure, from being humiliated or mistreated, either by another or by oneself.
          • A willingness or tendency to subject oneself to unpleasant or trying experiences.

          So I take it number three is your posion? Unless of course your the "I ride the bus, in my trench coat, just a trench coat, I love the feel of vinyl on my bare as..." type... :eek: Actually if I lived in London I would take the tube or bus myself. Pretty pointless trying to go to work in a car there. I would however miss the freedom of being able to A: drive on the road or B: run down helpless pedestrians in side walk cafes. ;P regards, Paul Watson Cape Town, South Africa e: paulmwatson@email.com w: vergen.org

                        Currently driving with a Opel Astra Break 17DTI. Bought it last year and I'm very happy with it. Our second car is a Opel Kadett 1.6 Diesel with almost 300.000km on it.

                          Company car Audi A3 1.9 TDI. Runs just fine, except for the "concrete suspension". :suss: The car (not me) retires in december, after which I hope to buy an "overclocked" Alfa R 155 2.0 Bi-Turbo with over 250 HP. 0-100 Km/h in under 5 seconds. :rolleyes: -------------------------------------------------- If my messages appear curt, I apologize.

                            No gun, just the rack. Sometimes I put my son's bb gun up there just for affect. When I'm feeling really froggy I put my Confederate battle flag plate on my front bumper. Just doing my part to reduce the life expectancy of liberals by keeping their blodd pressure high ;)

                                          Just sold my '97 BMW M3 because of costs and bought a wonderful '99 MG-F 1.8 Roadster. Not quite the power of the M3 but affordable :)
