Text speak is against forum rules,and one admin in particular gets more than a little upset when people keep using it. ;)

At least your doing it the right way round...so many people join the forum after buying one and asking...then realise they might have bought a lemon...although to be fair they are good solid cars and the usual things are generally easy to fix :y
