    Mad Australian Police fined me for driving on right hand lane of freeway

    rodimus: I think you are absolutely right, you should challenge the fine and take it all the way to court. You'll have to do all in your time and money to ensure you fight this to the very end and prove to that police office that you are right!

    Has anyone been using Toyo Teo plus

    Had these before and would never touch them with a barge pole.. Could be the particular model I had (the model escapes me) but down right dangerous in the wet.

    Has anyone been using Toyo Teo plus

    Just had a set of 215 55 17s put on.. will let you know when I throw on more kilometers... My last set of tyres were the stock standard yoko geolanders which lasted me 57000kms. Hoping to get more kms out of these toyos. So far a much improved tyre noise reduction and possibly grips too. :)

    Windows media player

    Interesting, indeed asking someone to show you how to do it visually is actually easier. Wind7 is slightly different to XP, once you get the hang of it its a **** :)
