RED FERRARI
I just thought red and white cars look SO gorgous together darling.
Stephen Hall immortalises 3 GT3’s and a Gallardo in some fabulous photography.
Stephen is a remarkably talented photographer and is also someone I’ve worked with before so there was no real dilemma when looking for somebody to take some photos of our new cars. All four of us, Glenn, Pete, Moz and myself had just taken delivery of our cars and as newly weds, photographs are a [...]
North Circular – in high resolution.
I take a reality check as I find it hard distinguishing pixels from real life.

New cars. New sites.
Aha, our good friends in the electronic retail sector, Comet submitted by Simon Moxon
An entertaining trip to Comet to return my friend John’s faulty Xbox:
John: “Hi, I bought this XBOX last week, and as soon as I plugged it in it came up with a message on the screen saying it’s [...]
Smart car dealership, London
An ill furnished warehouse in the region of Abbey Road London is masquerading as a purveyor and importer of fine automobiles. Upon hearing of a Porsche 996 GT2 in their showroom, [...]
Dixons group stores, London
You know, the group that houses the infamous high street retailers such as Dixons, Currys, PC World and Link. Everytime I go in there I always vow never to return, but [...]

London BMW dealers
Hexagon and Millcars, to name a couple. Unfortunately, we know they don’t have to kiss ass to get anywhere. Business comes to them in these areas. North London is known for [...]
I HATE TEMPO
The most dire establishment I have ever had the misfortune in dealing with. From the prepubescent managers to the emotionless, heartless, ‘reading-from-a-page-attatched-to-my-monitor’ customer support. I have [...]
Sennheiser (nominated by Blow Dog)
A welcome return after such an absence, what better way to start than by awarding a straight 10/10 to Sennheiser, manufacturers of fine headphones and recording equipment. After owning a set of EH2200’s for a number of years, I was so impressed with the unit that I bought another one for my home. As luck [...]
Creative Labs Support Centre (nominated by Caterboy)
I would like to commend the above for excellent customer service. I recentley contacted both parties with regards to a faulty volume/Fader control on my DT2500 speakers. I had purchased the speakers with a PC package through Mesh plc. Mesh’s customer service is a lot to be desired so I went straight to Cambridge Soundworks [...]
First Direct Bank (nominated by Simon Pricket )
Always friendly, always get to speak to a real person. They’re open 24 hours, and have done silly things for me like arranged car loans at 3am while I lived in [...]
Scotthall BMW – Eastleigh, Hants (nominated by Gary Winstanley)
Most pleasurable car buying experience I have ever had. Superb facilities & friendly staff – and a reception that is actually staffed with live humans who greet you at the door [...]

Amazing service, totally friendly, even got a bunch of flowers for the missus and a toy car for the newborn sprog (he was 2 weeks old at the time). This is [...]
Murketts BMW of Huntingdon
Ever heard of the dealer principle inviting you in to his house for coffee? Nope, nor had I until I spoke to these guys. They really are the most accomodating guys I have ever dealt with, not only giving me the car for 2 nights, but also bringing it to me halfway, and that was [...]

Old fashion store that revels on old fashioned customer service. Latest equipment, superb service but not only that, they will price match anything you buy from them for up to a [...]
Why the 997 GT3 is the best car I’ve ever owned.
That’s right folks, I’m being entirely radical by claiming ownership of the king of the ring. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you my case and all I ask is a fair and just hearing. My lord.
GT3 at the London Eye
I pick the car up from the dealer and drive all day – it’s not until nightfall i realise I’ve taken no pictures. Where can I find lots of light…?
