Had my only Mazda ( a Mazda 6) for almost 70k (bought second hand) and the only things it's had done to it are stuff that you expect to wear out like tyres, brakes, battery, filters, etc. Unbelievable machine.


Mazda have a very good build quality compared to other cars in the price bracket, always have. Their interior doesn't feel as cheap as some of their competitors products and they're excellent for road noise.

It is funny that people in our age bracket will remember the "jap crap" mentality of years ago when Australian cars were highly rated as opposed to plastic rubbish from Japan. How things have changed.

I’ve had Fords and Holden’s over the years, but my current vehicle a Honda seriously shits all over them.

Grab the multi meter from in the factory, 0V. Grab the booster pack and jump start it figuring I'll stop along the way home and get one, took the booster pack with me. Didn't think about it as I had no tools to do the swap over where ever I stopped so I went home.

Get up this morning, click. Nicks, nada, nil. Booster pack, fire it up, head to Sprint to buy a new one and think for a moment, I got the extended 5 year manufacturers warranty when I purchased the car 2 years ago.

Ring Skoda service at Jarvis they say to call road side assist who come out, new battery fitted under warranty and I didn't pay a cent.

Cheers, Skoda.


I was chatting to the RAA bloke when he was bailing me out of the missus cluster**** a week or so ago and mentioned my sister owns a Skoda. He said "I'll be seeing her soon then."

Watch him just pop it back in!!! :lol:


http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/gol ... ae4bbc7f4e

SOME bizarre scenes came out of Thursday’s Masters action.

America’s Tony Finau, the world No. 34, hit a spectacular hole-in-one at the seventh whole, and the reaction from both the crowd and golfer was as expected.

The Augusta spectators went wild, while Finau turned on the jets and sprinted toward the hole. However, in the midst of the celebration, Finau seemingly dislocated his ankle, dropping to the green in pain.

In an odd circumstance, the American popped his ankle back into place before limping toward the crowd.

Was pretty happy with this deal:

Hi Col, this is Debbie from the Advertiser, we spoke on the phone earlier in regards to some special offers available to our Super Coach players and you asked me to send the offer via email.

So the offer is Sat and Sun printed copy delivered on the weekend with Digital access 24/7 to all our news corp papers with 4 devices connected to the online service at the same time. You also get an upgrade to Super Coach Stats which gives you more information on players ie. break even score, stats on players, projection and extra trades.
This offer is half price for the next 3 months at only $3.50 per week, now there are no Contract or Cancellation fees involved with this offer so you can stop at any time. The normal price for this offer is $7.00 per week and if you take the price of the Sat and Sun paper of that price you are really only paying $1.00 per week for Digital access 24/7 and an upgrade to Super Coach Stats.

If you are interested in this offer please send me an email back with a day and time that suits you and I will give you a call back.

I'm just happy that I don't have to scroll through my phone anymore when I'm taking my Sunday morning dump! Right in time for all the ammo results etc. No one will see me until I hear that breakfast is ready.

You'll need your speakers on.

If you work in an office with people predominantly over 35 gather them around your computer for 2:50 and enjoy.

Brilliant.

I'll watch it later, but I assume there's references to avocado and lattes.

I work in an office with the next youngest person being 48, the next one in his 50's, the next three (all women) in their late 60's and the owner in his 80's.

I should have taken part in the childcare workers strikes, because I'm running a f**kin daycare here.
