Why not consider one of these?

My advice would be to take a motorbike - brilliant roads around there

I'd rather have one of these... my boss at work has one, makes me very envious every time I hear it start up

The house I own at the moment was owned by a very old lady who I think must have been taken advantage of by charities - every single day there is post for her from one charity or another, I saved it all for a month recently (to post it all back) and it was over a carrier bag worth full... some of them even send money asking for you to send it back plus more, not to mention pens/other cheap crap items.
I am all up for donating to charity - but it's sad to see that a vast sum of money is just wasted

You would be a lot better off with an MX-5 imo... There's a reason they're so cheap

I've got a Sony STR-DB798 AMP with some Wharfedale 9.6's bi-wired into it, just some small speakers for the back although I mostly prefer to listen to it in stereo just with the 9.6's
No need for a Sub with them I've found.
I run everything through a media PC so it's just connected up with an optical cable.

Had the policeman not stood out in the road like that the first biker could have pulled over more - however the bike behind could have come off the brakes and gone past (although looks like he just panicked)
In the eye's of the law probable the second biker at fault - but you could argue it forever

I looked at a few of them before I bought my first MV6 - decided on the Omega though as it made a touch more power, drove better, and was more economical (just)
Interior trim doesn't wear very well from the one's I've seen - other than that service history is very important.

Wouldn't it be best to stream it to a stereo?
I use one of these to play music from my phone/laptop to my amp & sound system.

Seems an odd reason to be selling reading his description considering the amount of other car spares (and another car) he's also selling...

I've used it a few times - it's quite clever in that it creates the connection by using Bluetooth but then automatically creates an ad-hoc wifi connection so it's very fast

I've gone from iPhone 4 - then over to an android phone - then to an iPhone 5 - I don't see why anyone would want an android handset, the apps and functionality on the iPhone are just better imo.
Not to mention the quality of the handset compared to anything else - a year later and it still works perfectly and still fast, everything backs up via iCloud seamlessly. It works perfectly for my work email and calendar etc.

The i3 is electric but has a small petrol engine that 'maintains' the battery level so in theory you can drive it all day long with that engine running keeping the batteries for extending the range etc.
Seems like a step in the right direction - but seeing as it's made using some pretty expensive materials it wont be cheap!
