You already know I have no blu ray player, so I don't care about that.

Golden Discs aren't a patch on HMV, but at least the one out by me is decent enough that even YOU could pick films you're happy with there.

Hmmm just home looking from looking at a car, im so torn I still like my own car Honda's are fualtless but I want more power. Im just afraid of going from ultra reliable Honda to BMW.

The car I looked is amazing the humm of the engine is sexual and the power is addictive but there only offering me 4250 for my own was hoping for more and engine fault light came on 5 minutes into the test drive now they said that would be fixed but does make me hesitant. I'm so torn.

Hmmmm, I don't know. Personally I'd walk away. I was looking at a 04 BMW 3 series before I got the Primera. It was tidy an' all, but just something about it. Different lights being on that shouldn't be etc. So I didn't bother. You don't want to be stuck with someone else's problems mate.

Yeh I think I will as I know on them it can mean a few things one being wastegate failure and becuase there twin turbo that means a 2 grand fix. Plus the garage gave the whole speel "jasus really never seen that before and sure was only driving it a few hours ago" "well fix it before we sell it of coarse" my hole if it is one the more serious issues they will just clear it off and hope it doesn't show up again until it's sold.

Just a bit gutted been searching for months for one of them for the right price back to the waiting game now I guess.

Ah, I know it's heart-wrenching, but isn't it better to lose out on a car than have a 2 grand bill?? I know of lads going round with laptops to clear engine management lights off cars just before they're sold, and that's just the tip of the iceberg!

Very true indeed be worse if the light had shown up after I bought it just driving out the garage. Ah yeh never ever trust a garage I know that much.

It also didn't help my fears of going from a Jap car to German in terms of reliability seeing that today.

I don't like her, I love her. And I suppose since I like you, but love her, I'll have to rescind my offer. You can use my gran's dog, she didn't like you when you met her, so she'll probably run fast, hoping to get you off of her. That should get you to your destination fast enough.

That's a decent price for the engine size and mileage.

Looks like some of the HMV stores are to re-open!! thank God for this!! since it closed in Limerick there is literally no where with a good selection of music and dvds!!

http://www.joe.ie/news/current-affairs/hmv-stores-to-re-open-with-e4-million-investment-and-100-jobs-created/

No mention of Galway. There is literally no where to buy DVDs anymore except OMG (the place that took over Zhivago) and they just sell pound shop standard crap.

I hate waking up from a nap and thinking it's morning.

Personally my advice ( from my years of being a mechanic) I'd avoid bmws
Yes they look the part and have all the gits and gadgets but they're not worth the hassle
Think bout it
An 04 BMW is cheap enough that most can afford and especially younger lads seem to all have newish cars. A young lad in a BMW or any car has drove the ****e out of and could easily be passing on a serious problem your way and you've no comeback after you sign that line that its yours
Stick to jap models
Can't beat them. Maybe not all flash looking as German cars but they run better and are cheaper to look after.

Ah I know all about German makes and reliability issues my mate who is a mechanic came to look at it with me. If I could find a clean one I'd go for it. Generally I would feel more assured but very few Jap cars can offer what the BMW I looked at today offered.

The one I was looking at was an 06 335i so no fear of a younglad having owned it before and srewing it. I do like them Skylines though the 350GT ones if I could find a nice clean well looked after one of them I'd take it there very rare though over here. Did consider a Impreza STi at one stage but I kind of like my cars understated and thats one thing the Impreza ain't. Legacy new enough none screwed with the 3.0 litre engine are hard to come by aswell.

Happys days get recruiting so ha. Yeh was wondering that myself since be pretty sure for years he only trained for quick bursts it be some change in thinking.

Ah even I remember watching Jonah Lomu not only was he quick but he was built like a tank, really was unbelievable his highlight reels on youtube are amazing.
