Dr Dave - I would just like to thank you for being so extremely helpful - and interested in other people (and their cars) Its really appreciated.

In a world where most people just look out for themselves its really refreshing to come across somebody who will help people that he's probably never met, and is unlikely to meet.
Thanks again Dave (and Steve) for a great site - which has about doubled my phone bill!

i can only agree with james.brown! :D

The thing we can make out of your replies to our (somethimes stupid) questions is that you are getting loads of satisfaction of helping people, and thats appriciated by all of us (not guys?)!!!

1 more thing on your (mayor) 2-do list, put a foto of yourselve on the forum, so we can finally see who we're talking to! :) :) :)

Once again, THANKS !!

Kevin.

Speaking personally, I like helping people and at the heart of it, Dave's the same. We're both enthuiasts, in Dave's case its refreshing to see someone who works at a dealership who is enthuiastic about the brand. I know a few other dealers like that, but sadly it seems to be the minority. The thing with Richardsons (where Dave works) is that a lot of the staff there are enthuaists.

As for the photo, I've got a perfect one in mind, sorry Dave, its got to be done!! :D

I can only echo what has been said before. I am just about to go and pick up my ZR which has new wheels thanks to dave. The help I have recieved from this site has been considerable during a period which was very distessing (stolen wheels) All I can say is a big thanks to everyone who gave me some advice and especially Dave who actually got the wheels for me. My only hope is that one day MGR thke a leaf out of the book. Cheers guys:D :D :D

It is nice to have people that you Dr Dave and all the others on this site it like a home from home.
As for the buget always bad news for us, they try getting motoist off the roads to use public transport that doesnt work with taxes. If the public transport worked their would be less traffic, making more room for us enthusates (need to get a dictionary i think):)

LOL! ;) - Its now unstuck.

as for the stateboard, I seem to remember it was Mark's idea of an 'Extreme sports' image. As for your eyes being shut, just bad timing on the photo. I did look at the other one I had but it was blurred :(

Dave isn't scary in real life, he's actually a damn nice bloke. :)
