I think I'm qualifying for an anorak as this is getting really interesting.

Chap was asking what the 'M' in MV6 stands for....

I read the initial question. :P I was just pointing out that the M might not actually stand for anything as the other terms mean opps all too!  :P  :P

It's unlikely to be owt specific, as the MV6 in Continental Europe is the same spec as our Elite.



Very valid point, originally GT meant Gran Tourisme (or some such franglais) and was only applied to large touring cars which were a bit sporty like Bentley Continentals or DB2s, modern equivalent would be something like the big Volvos or the Chrysler/SAAB thingy...these days it gets used as sporty (in their dreams) and can even be seen on 'super-minis'. What they used to mean and what they are used for seem to have lost any link.


Cobblers ::) GT means, Cortina, Hunter, Mini with suped up bits and Rally heritage, nothing as flash as you suggest ::)
I agree that nowadays means little.............. :y


Youngsters today....no respect for ther elders mumble mumble.....
definition of a Grand Touring car was [ch8220]a road going lightweight semi-luxurious coupe built on a high performance chassis.[ch8221]

I had it so easy, passed the single part test on a 550 with a sidecar attached - even argued with the examiner about proper use of brakes on a corner - and then a week later had removed the sidecar and was blasting around solo...

My brother has a rather nice self contained unit which stores to an SD card. Can get over an hour in low res and he has it mounted on the handlebars of his Gold Wing

You can get them (and more comprehensive kits) from   http://www.dogcamsport.co.uk/index.html

Confession time, I actually use the iTunes software but only because I don't have an iPod/iPhone...if you can keep it isolated it isn't too bad and will behave itself plus it does keep the files well organised. All my music is on a USB drive which I only connect if I want to listen keeping it on a really short leash.
Difficulty is finding a good option, used to used Musimatch Jukebox but then they were bought out by Yahoo and didn't so much go downhill as off the cliff.
