Another vote for the Iphone. For a phone its a very good image. And always in my pocket. Sizing is good, and easy to upload to a computer. For autotrader, Ebay etc the quality is more than enough, and good for attaching to emails too

Barn finds tended to have a great story attached to them An Aston Martin DB5 found in a run down barn is a remote part of France, untouched for years A rare pre war Bentley in an overgrown spinny in a farmers field These are proper "barn finds" Now it seems everybody is classing any old tatt as a barn find and trying to ask a fortune for it. Your nans XR2 thats been parked under a tree for 12 months is not a barn find, niether is that MK3 Golf taken off the road to be repaired, messed up, realised it wasn't an easy fix and left in the garage for 2 years.. again isn't a barn find.

Ouch!

When you go to the IMI's Professional Register (we promote businesses with ATA accredited staff) there is an option for Used Car and New Car Sales Specialists but rarely anyone listed. Clearly I can understand why there'd be plenty of service & repair/mechanically-oriented professionals but as cars need to be sold professionally too, I'd have hoped for more staff following this route. I presume this traces back to car manufacturers thinking their training schemes are good enough? Or used car dealers not seeing a commercial reason to jump through training hoops?

LOL. (I'm led to believe this is an appropriate use for this acronym) I was gonna say 'unbelievable' but it really isn't. Was it in an envelope like Jim got recently too? Hey James! Reckon yer man from the DVLA could marketing-speak his way out of this one? No, me neither. This, Umesh, is a window to the near future for all of us... and the view is not pretty,

When some Russian tycoon has desires for an Austin Montego 1.6 HL then I'm quids in!
