CB radios: was About time too! by
Austin Shackles
On or around 24 Jan 2007 09:58:37 GMT, Will Cove
enlightened us thusly:
Er, AFAICT it does. The law bans both mobile phones and communication
devices that operate exclusively on one or more of the forbidden bands.
yeah, but if the Tetra device *doesn't* operate on a prohibited (i.e. mobile
phone) frequency, then it's exempt.

Hi All
Have an old shogun 2.5TDI at the moment
Looking at above models (around T reg 2.7TDI) as possible replacement will I

lerkio
Gas-guzzling sports cars, 4x4s and people carriers could be priced off the
road within five years after a crackdown on carbon emissions to be announced

European Environment Commissioner. The rule change could add...

People with sports utility vehicles (SUVs) - dubbed the "Chelsea
tractors" - are more likely to drive with only one hand on the top half
of the steering wheel than drivers of regular cars, the study found.
It was conducted to...

4x4s aren't cool any more by
Marvin
Apparently sales of 4x4 have started to decrease for the first time in
quite a few years, it is suspected they are just not seen as cool cars
anymore. Of coarse, to many people they never were, but that's another
story.

even learnign a little off road riding.
I'm considering a Ssangyong/Daewoo Korando.

It will be an unfair tax on those who live apart from families and
poorer people who will not be able to afford the high monthly costs.
Please Mr Blair - forget about road pricing and concentrate on
improving our...
