Perhaps this is why I did not buy it in the end...<br /><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/50361.aspxSun, 30 Sep 2007 06:05:06 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:50361BeoMagic0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/50361.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=50361<p>Nice car. nice plate.
