Whoa! The Pound Sterling is in da toilet as well...People, you'll have to join the Euro gang over there...

Actually, it's not much for a beemer, but probably the car is like 20 y/o...

A DVLA log book is the owners document for a UK motor vehicle.
It is a cars registration and identification and is a legal requirement for buying,selling or scrapping a car

The 'logbook' is now a single sheet of paper called a V5.

It is still known as a 'logbook', because many years ago it was literally a small book, which kept a log of all the vehicle's previous owners.

Wow. The man really does like green.

Thanks for the link, smax. That's pretty funny.

Here, let me try something.

Stewart, that your car? It is green...

I bet you could get a good sound out of that !!!

...be a bitch lugging around on stage though.

Stewart sure has some strange instruments.

Reasons not to purchase this car:

1. Sunroof needs fixing (people, this is england, not the Gobi Desert. 'Needs fixing' in UK second hand car parlance means 'leaks'.)

2. It's a gas guzzler (by european standards) - not 'the new hybrid' ;-)

3. It's a beemer. Spare parts? £££££

4. Smax - where in hell are you going to park the monster? And you know you'll just end up spending every weekend polishing the damn thing.

5. Seller has no previous sales on ebay.

(Shit. I've started to sound like my dad)

6. Lastly, and most significantly, have none of you people noticed that it is the entirely the wrong shade of green?

BongoBoy might be onto something though. Buy it and turn it into custom green percussion smax :-)
