Hey let's not slag me off too much.I've owned a number of Triumph Vitesse's ( Mk1 and Mk 2 ) even had a Spitfire Mk 4 which I threw a 2.0ltr straight six from a Vitesse into ( had to buy a Le Mans hood for that ). I've had Vincent Hurricane. Any number of Mk1 Escorts, the finest being my Mexico and one cobbled together from lots of things based around a boxer engine which was made for stage 3 rallying. I've had a couple of Old Rovers, I had a Daimler Sovereign ( 1975 V12 ) and a V12 Jag XJS ( but they have more moving parts than a million clocks )
I also had a Laverda Jota.
I'm not always about the modern tech you know?

haha, no worries.I am a gadget freak. I buy gadgets that barely ever leave the box. I have so much useless stuff it's crazy. Plus I can never throw anything away. Sitting here in my office I can see 6 video cards, 4 DVD players, a box full of processors and 3 motherboards without turning around. I replace the guts of my PCs at the rate of at least one new part a month and probably recycle my main one every 4-6 months. They keep bringing out new things and I get to thinking it looks better on paper so off I go to ebuyer.
I am about to change my phone from the trusty old HTC Universal which has served me well and that's going to be a momentous decision. It will not be an I phone of any description. I still am perplexed at the popularity of a phone that does some of the things that my phone was doing 3-4 years ago and then still falls short of many of my phones functions.
Don't worry. There are certain people on here that have dispensation and will never appear in my 'bad books'. You are one ;)
