Yep Mannheim and pickles, Mannheim usually get out fleet stuff..

There is one G55 in belmore lol goes up on Tuesday! Should be on the pickles site now

I've seen that one actually- but it has very high kms from memory.

Back to MB (and sorry to be annoying)- how does it work? I've seen some cars go dirt cheap, others for good money. Do they set a reserve based on what is owing? How do they decide what they are chasing for repo vehicle?

Boss car although the new GL AMG is way hotter I rkn the G is a bit strange on our roads and resale would be disaster since nobody has em I rkn

Thanks for the input mate. :). I do think it will be hard to sell down the track.

Personally not a fan of any of the GLs or MLs or even the boxy G series really lol, but it is a present that my brother and I are getting for my Dad, as he loves the G series.

Congrats dude...when you off Ps?

That the one Titan found for you?

Cheers man. Lol soon enough! But that doesn't actually matter, it's clearly just a CE lancer with a body kit. Fake it until you make it ;).

Different one actually.

Oooooh sheeeet

Congrats bro, you are now my newest enemy

Aww shiieett is what I'm still saying to myself lols. HAHA cheers... come back to the light side bro.

I see what you did thar.. !

Outside the bakery never seen so many people interested / staring at my bike for up to 5 mins each.. dafaq? Guess it's quite a bit different than your everyday standard jap sport bike.. Waiting for my carbon bits and bling!

No worries!

The third party auctioneer does a valuation on it. Based on that we compare it to red book and glasses guide, and set a reserve on it. Try and get the best price we can so the debtor pays less on the shortfall.

If it doesn't meet our reserve its usually dissapproved for sale, but if its been up a few times with minimal bites, we may drop the reserve, or negotiate with the highest bidder..

Too many things come into it though, like the type of auction (luxury or prestige or general etc) then market flooding.. So say a fleet goes under and 10 of the same car have to go up for sale in the same auction, then they will obviously sell for less..

okay SAU IT help me out;

I have 1x samsung smart tv & 1 dumb tv

I want to be able to watch downloaded content

I want to be able to download torrents/files remotely & store them on a server

Im guessing I need a DLNA network attached storage (NAS) & a wdlive for my dumb tv.

Can someone recommend me a good NAS + media player (wdlive?)

Should I use the samsung smarthub to browse files; or buy two media player thingos? (wdlive)

Thank you ^^,

Make sure you get a NAS with a good operating system on it, one that runs a torrent client so you can just download directly to it.

As for the media players not too sure what the samsung smarthub looks like or is to use, maybe try it out if its annoying buy a media player for it, other option is one of these things:

And if it were me I'd probably buy one of these to control it (~$45):

how custom or do you want a bought one?

custom

HP NL54 + 4 hdd's + freenas installed on a usb stick

QNAP TS-420 + 4 drives

Yeh no worries, logitech one works as well with the samsungs we use em at work, same shiz though. Makes it far easier to navigate.

Those little things 'barebones' are basically small PCs yes.

What sold me were the tv remote buttons on the keyboard.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
