It very much depends upon the type of leasehold that we're talking about here. Most flats for instance, are leasehold, whereby you pay a service charge for the up keep (supposedly) of the communal areas. You, in essence, own the part of the building (the flat) for the duration on the lease - which can either a) expire or b) be extended by you. Extending a lease is normally quite expensive depending up whereabouts you are. But for a standard 99 year lease extension, there are normally deals to be done with the freeholders. Owning a leasehold property, with a decent length lease on it, makes little or no difference to your ownership rights and potential resale (although a leasehold house is a tad peculiar - unsual). I'm more than willing to write you out my advice, but I'd need some more details off you. Cheers, Josh

Little confused - the US size that you've given doesn't match the UK conversion. US 8 is 5.5 here? But you've said you think they are a UK 6.5? I ask simply because I will have these if they are the right size....

Very enjoyable to watch it come down to the wire like that and then see him pull those amazing four reds out of nowhere. Murphy was consistent, but consistently average - which would have made the final very boring against Higgins who's a bit of a steady Eddie in my view. Yeah, I've been suprised it hasn't really been mentioned throughout the whole thing.

I'm looking for something similar to you actually, with a tiny bit of a bigger budget. My requirements are a bit more particular, as in, I WON'T have an auto and I want either a white one or silver one. I don't want any form of bodykit whatsoever. There are plenty out there, they come up on a weekly basis - just be patient, keep scouring this website and pistonheads. I've seen a few good ones on AutoTrader, but mostly have ambiguous ads. When are you looking to get one by?

The final between Mark Willaims and John Higgins is currently being played. Anyone else watching? What are your thoughts so far? Bit scrappy for me at the moment, both are quite unsettled but my money currently resting on the Welshman.

looks better than half the shitty attempts to fit a spoiler you see on Autotrader...

Welcome, I joined here too a few months ago to learn some bits and pieces about the Supra for when I buy one soon Just have a read around to learn about the basics of the car, and as already mentioned - there are a couple of ongoing projects that might be right up your alley. Josh

Hilarious I now know what I want for xmas...

I'd be up for that, keep me posted. What format do you guys play?

That Silver M reg in the picture is for sale on PistonHeads, no? Is there something wrong with it, I was quite interested?

Happened to me a couple of times this week. Just shot a load of WD40/De-icer into the key hole - ten minutes later all is fine!

My company website is hosted with Servage.net. They're pretty good, you get stacks of features, loads of space, unlimited email accounts, SQL databases etc.

If you stretch your budget to the max, you'd be able to get a facelift model which, I think, are a lot more reliable. To be honest, when I drove one, the fuel economy wasn't AS BAD as I was expecting for a big SUV. I was playing along the lines of 'towering above other motorists'

+1 on the Cherokee idea.

You seen the spoiler?

A friend of mine had a Ford Ranger a while back (I *think* it was an 03 plate) - and it really was awful. I seem to remember him driving courtesy cars more often than his Ranger. They really aren't the most reliable things around from what I've heard. He now has an L200 Warrior, however, and it's been a vast improvement and not many reliability issues. I think Mitsi is quite synonymous with high servicing costs, but failing being able to afford a Hilux, it's my choice.

Your registration is almost identical to the one on my MR2! I had to do a huge double take there. Good luck with the sale!

The onus certainly is on the landlord to fix this. Kindly point out that he is in breach of his contract and keep on the phone to the letting agent. If it's a professional agent, it shouldn't take them long to get someone out as they have contacts for everything.

Even in the aptly named "off topic" seciton? Toyota Coventry said they could order one if for £11.14 + VAT. Not as bad as I was expecting

I think they are actually. Thanks very much for the offer, you have PM.

I've actually just gone and done this. Better than no cap at all, I suppose. I'll have to phone Toyota tomorrow and see how much they're going to charge me for an OEM one! Bets on how much?

- I think the engine tray is the only option I haven't explored, just didn't fancy doing it tonight in the pitch black. But having gone to Halfords, a local parts store and a toyota garage - I'm still without one. Any suggestions what to do in the mean time to protect it?

I was topping up the oil in the MR2 earlier, when I stupidly knocked the oil filler cap down into the engine bay. I saw it bouce around, so figured it wouldn't be too difficult to reach down and get it... ...three deep cuts to the arm later, two hours in the freezing cold, jacking the car up, shining lights everywhere down there and I still can't find the f***ing thing Anyone else ever had this happen? On a side note, if anyone else has a spare oil filler cap that they can send my way, please let me know.. Josh

I was hoping to see something far more risque too. There was nothing in there anyone couldn't have speculated - a royal is a bit pompous, the US and South Korea discussing the eventualities if (or when) the North collapses or the mob-style rule of Russia. It has been funny watching Clinton try to brand WikiLeaks a 'terrorist' organisation now, calling this disclosure an "attack on the global community"

Still waiting to hear back from Coyote - thanks for letting me know though. @edge I use an iPhone but I can't stand using it for nav - looking down, having to fiddle when it locks itself etc - not good!
