    I would be pretty happy with €1050 fully comp. I was paying twice that 3rd party F&T on a 323 10 years back @ 26.

    You're a fecking accountant and you don't know whether you're due a refund and how much???? I used to do the same with y expenses - enforced savings. When I eft they owed me £18k. If I'd had it, it wouldn't have been so special!

    My sister trained with one of the big4 gnomey companies after she got a B Comm, she left shortly after she completed her final exams or whatever. She still works as an accountant but not in the auditing line.

    So many keen and enthusiastic folk mad to get into that line and most of them hate it so shortly afterwards from what I've seen.

    that's pretty much it. Most people hated it but did it anyway.

    I really can't stand doing something I hate regardless of whether I'm good at it or not. I just found it soul destroying. My leaving Coincided with my old mans passing and I realised it just wasn't worth it if I really didn't want to do it.

    Never looked back despite being asked to go back

    I was reading online tonight at some performance figures and I came across this site. It's nothing fantastic but may be of use to someone who wishes to compare the performance of two vehicles. It comes under the dual section. It doesn't have every car listed but has some popular models.
