Some one is bidding on my IS on ebay but they have no feedback and Only joined in March 2009... Do you think its a serious bidder or can i cancel the bid some how?

I definately think they are worth the money, we need something slightly bigger than the IS so thought the GS would be good for us... I was with my mum when she tried the adaptive crusie control in her car... i was very impressed, although im not sure if i could stop my foot from pressing the break!! Must deffinately take some getting used to!

Hiya, My other half has finally persuaded me to sell the IS300, my baby! And get a new shape GS430 so if any of you are selling or know of any good deals at the mo would appreciate you pointing me in the direction! Ideally would like a black one :) Thanks in advance Nat.

He was only 50, so sad! Im going to a funeral tomoro to burie a 26 year old lad, you really should live every day like its your last. LOVE all his songs he done. Very sad :(

Sat outside on my decking enjoying the beautiful weather and in the field next door there is a Mini Car show.... They are doing my head in now! Music booming, who has made the best cake, who is participating in the treasure hunt!! SHUT UP!! haha I wouldnt mind if it was cars i like but im not interested in Minis. I'm not that grumpy really but thank God its only once a year!! I dont think i could take any more. :)

I was 20 in March, had my IS 300 since i was 18 and i love it. My other half is desperately trying to persuade me round to a GS430 but I love my IS too much i think. He might be in for a bit of a wait!!

Its always worth taking out argos's extra warranty cover on things, its not that expensive and in my experience if you have ANY problems at all the take it back for refund/exchange no trouble at all, and you get the price you paid for it even if its been reduced since you bought it. Not sure if you can get them in argos but i have a henry hoover and i think they are good, or dyson balls are very good, the brush bar pulls the carpet back up lovely and fluffy :) think that may be a women thing though!!

I heard aswel that the Governement get 15% VAT on any new car sold any way so i bet they want every one to buy new cars, they arent really loosing out because the £2000 cost is shared between the car dealer and the government.

I very stupidly had one on the inside of my wrist when i was 15 :iraqi-info-minister: and now i have to spend 5 times as much if not more to get rid of it!!! I dont like it but it doesnt majorly bother me because i can just wear bracelets to cover it but my boyfriend James hates it! :yack: I dont have any problems with tatoos, each to their own!! but i was young and stupid and regret mine. Dont want to hi jack the thread but has any one tried any tattoo removals i.e. Laser or Eraze? any recomendations? :)

Bought my IS300 with Aeropack and 18" wheels sat nav etc exactly one year ago yesterday for £8500 (part exd a 55 plate bubble Nissan micra against it)... It sickens me to see how much they are worth now.... 2nd hand cars do seem to be going up more now though because no one is buying new cars so 2nd hand ones are selling better. Who knows how much it will fetch by the time i want to get rid of it! :(

Hiya, Welcome to the LOC! Got the best colour there! im jelous

got 1 and 3 right, got number 2 wrong oops!

well everyone has their own opinion... when you have been in the same situation come back to me.

so your REAL problem is that you have to go to court again to give evidence. Clearly you wanted the instant hit of the police turning up and resolving the situation when it happened but you really cant be arsed to see the case the case through...to the bitter end... Perhaps there wouldnt be so many people being attacked, mugged or stabbed by chavs as you put it, if people like you had the resolve to persist with the court process. Actually i had no problem going to court the first time round, i understood that by giving my statement thats what i would have to do..... The thing that F****D me off was going to court for 4 days, standing on a stand for hours being called a liar and thick and then they got F**K all for it any way and now we have to go and do it all again,,,, and for what????? LETS HOPE YOU NEVER HAVE TO DO IT BECAUSE SOME ONE YOU LOVE HAS BEEN ASSAULTED, IF YOU ARE EVER PUT IN THAT SITUATION I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOU THINK THEN!!!! MY REAL PROBLEM IS PEOPLE WITH NO RESPECT FOR ANYONE OR ANYTHING!!!!!

please tell me where the police are at fault here?..they found the offenders took them to court and got them convicted..its the judge/magistrates who decides the sentence not the police. Reading this its clear the police did a brilliant job...every car in weston turned up, dogs and a helicopter and you still say they are a waste of time...what more did you want.. Yes to be fair it is the Magistrates/Judge that decides and i think the whole court system is a load of S :tsktsk: T The only reason all the police and helicopter was there was beacuse so many people had phoned the police and they were saying it was a riot with hammers and baseball bats which is aload of crap. There was only the 3 youths and 3 of us there, all the other people were passers by and customers that were stood doing nothing. BUT the police are just as bad because we seen the lad that got away in the village a few days later and when we contacted the police so they could come and arrest him and they said they had already made AN APPOINTMENT to go and see him! what a joke, he had commited assault surely he shud of been arrested as soon as they knew of his where abouts but i suppose that would of inconvienienced the police! We have to go through it again when it goes to crown court because other wise they can put a summons on us and have us arrested then giving us a criminal record, but after that... never again as i now know how crap the court system is. It just worrys me that we have to bring up our kids in this society, give it some time (not much) and you will not be able to walk out your door without being attacked, mugged or stabbed by some gang of chavs... and its the police, courts and parents fault that it has ended up this way... Im sorry if i have offended any one but this society is turning into a complete JOKE and it makes my blood boil.

you have only got to look at sites like bebo to see what they are like, i cant believe that bebo alow such disgusting things to be written on there. im sure they all believe that they are gangsters!! pathetic!

ive seen the lad a few times walking around that assaulted James, and i think i should just pull over and smack him one but then i realize i would be putting my car in a bad situation, so thats not such a good idea lol But do you know, (police man told me this) That if you feel you are being threatened and you think your life is on danger you are well within your rights to smack some one and run!! so whos to say he didnt threaten you so you smacked him and ran! Im sorry but u wont get any where with police and courts they are crap!!! you are better off to just go to him and say he better pay up or else, and as for his parents, if they are anything like what the parents were like at the court, they will probably assault you them selves and then pat the kid on the back for commiting an offence! GRRRR!!!!!! Why is it im only 20 and yet i wouldnt dream of dis respecting people like kids do now, it makes me sick. 'Ladies_Love_Lex' i only said batter him because your other half works in A fish shop lol OH!!! i was obviously a bit slow there!

Sorry to hear about that, it must be so fustrating! How old is the boy?? Police are a waste of time! I wouldnt call them now unless my life depended on it! My partner owns a fish and chip shop and back in July 2008, 3 youths came in, they was putting the tomato sauces off the counter in their pocket so he asked if they were going to pay for them, then they started to get abusive so he asked them to leave, one stood outside and put his foot in the automatic doors to stop them closing, still shouting abuse, so James (my partner) walked around the counter up to him and told him to go, i was stood next to him aswell, the boy carried on with the abuse etc, calling me a slag and every thing, not that we had ever seen them before!! So any ways, the other 2 boys come out of the shop and stood next to their friend who was still blocking the door, he then punches James 3 or 4 times (knowing they are underage James just keeps walking towards them) another one of the friends join in and start bouncing around like Mike Tyson! and joins in, by this point James brother in law has seen what was happening, runs down from upstairs with some wood and chases one of them away from James, James pushes the other one on the floor, kicks him a few time Although i think he has kept his cool pretty well by this point! the 3 lads run off down the road, theres a bit more of a scuffle down in a nearby road... by this point loads of people had stopped and the police had been called by more than 30 people! Every police car in weston was there, and the police heli copter looking for them, one was found hiding in the chemist bin by a police dog, the other one was under a car and the other one got away to his nearby flat... Cut a really long story short it all went to court in December 2008, We had CCTV of everything that had happend, the boy that started it was 16, the other one was 16 and the other one was 18. In court we had to stand up on a stand infront of the skanky chavy lads with their skanky mothers and give evidence of what had happend. well i would never ever do it again. they twisted every word i said, their solicitors (because there was 3, one each) all would call you a liar, say it was James fault that it happend, they were just local lads that came to buy some chips and they were assaulted by James. THEY TWIST EVERYTHING!!!! its sickening. I was on the stand being questioned for 3 hours and james was up there for about 6 hours. They tried to make out that butter wouldnt melt in their mouths and even said that we should be the ones in the dock for attacking these innocent youths :o :tsktsk: :megaangry: , After a 4 day trial, one lad got found NOT GUILTY and his skanky mother had cheak to stand up and claim costs of £10 a day lunch money although mc donalds was further to walk than their house!!!!!!!!! :tsktsk: , The other one (18 year old) Got found not guilty of assault and guilty of a public order offence and got a ridiculous fine! And the ONE who originally started it got found GUILTY of public order offence and of assault AND got a stupid thing of about a week on TAG Well I had a phone 3 days ago, the lad who got found guilty of assault is apealing it and now we have to go to crown court and give all our evidence again infront of a judge in stead of magistrates..... WHAT A :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: JOKE!!! Sorry about the long post it just makes my blood boil thinking about youths today!!! So..... if he is under 18 (or over!!) he would go to court, you would get treated like the you were the one that had commited a crime and he will walk away smiling because u cant proove it was him! So its up to you, either deal with him your self, or record him doing it on camera and hope for the best.... BUT my opinion is the police and court systems are a waste of time!!!!! The police officer working our case even told us that the prisons are full so unless its a really serious offence they will get a smack on the wrist and told not to do it again!!!!! Bearing this in mind, one of the lads that got found not guilty of assault on James, 2 weeks previous to everything happening, he put a 6 inch knife to James' Niece's throat (she had CCTV evidence and the police found the knife) and he went to court and got put on TAG for 3 months. SO HOW seriuos has the offence got to be before something is actually done about it???... No wonder society is the way it is now!

CHECK OUT THIS LINK, tweak your job title to beat insurers. (takes a while search!) http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance...picker/#sectors FOUND THIS ON WWW.UK.REUTERS.COM. LONDON (Reuters) - Footballers have long been known for scoring own goals in the car insurance market, but comedians, fortune-tellers and bin men have now joined the list of people with the highest premiums, a survey shows. An analysis of quotes from 13 insurance providers for 365 different professions found a difference of up to 850 pounds a year between those jobs that command the highest car insurance costs and the lowest. Price comparison service Confused.com used the template of a 32-year-old man driving a Ford Mondeo LX and living in London postcode area NW1, with a maximum no-claims bonus. Its research found that footballers took the biggest kicking, being forced to fork out 1,348 pounds per year for fully comprehensive insurance. Premiums for comedians were also no laughing matter. They ranked second highest at 1,227 pounds, followed by stuntmen, fortune-tellers, circus employees, minicab drivers, national press journalists and builders. Firewood merchants and cleaners rounded up the top 10, while bee-keepers, mechanics, driving instructors, bin men and telephone salesmen made up the 15 most expensive occupations. At the other end of the scale, secretaries were found to enjoy the cheapest premiums, at just 501 pounds per year. Police officers -- commonly upheld as among the safest drivers -- came second in the cheap premium league, with average car insurance costs of 574 pounds. Others in the top 15 included computer consultants, paramedics, bank managers, doctors, lawyers, teachers and firemen. Naturalists, chauffeurs and underwriters were also low-risk. Debra Williams, managing director of Confused.com, said: "Insurers assess risk in many different ways -- one of which is profession." However, she said insurers based their quotes on their own claims experience, making it important that drivers searched the entire market when looking for the best deal.

who are you insured with though?

ive got an IS300 and been insured with Tesco since i was 19, it was £1200 this year and my renewal is £980 although is cheaper for girls... I think Admiral is more young "male" friendly. Just a case of doing loads of quotes i think. Its only £600 for me to insure an RX 400h, i dont know where they get their prices from!

Banks are robbing :tsktsk: My partner banks with "the one with horse" and they are ridiculous. their bank charges are a joke and they are completely un reasonable!! I hate them!!!!!

I love my Wii fit!! great fun, funny to watch people on it too. My Wii fit age is 30 and im 20 :o so i should probably work on that, The kids are on it all the time so i dont get chance to go on it! And they are much better than me!
