@ Jojo,
I certainly will be taking pics of the Kwak in action in the near future. 
By the way, that N90 (in the non-  pic thread) also takes some really decent pics, mate. 
@ama - I'll certainly will WAIT for that mate . . . Big Bikes has BEEN my passion in life (although NOT owning one at present  ), comes only after - SEX  . . .
About that - N90 . . . I am really disappointed with the camera on it (so goes with the N70-had it for just 2 weeks last 3/2006, then sold it after seeing the images coming OUT from it's - cam  ) . . . still has the BEST cams I guess (not to mention the 3 MPs with that of Nokia + the Nokia N95) . . . for the 2 MP, it will still be the K750-imho. The only thing that I liked with the N90 is it's size (manly one . . . ) plus it's rotating cam and video (looks like a video-cam . . .) When I took those images in a country-club, I made notice that I can ONLY get decent images when I am taking shots UNDER the SUN (shining at it's PEAK) . . . but when I'm indoors, or even still OUT but under a roof, poor-quality images comes out
Have a nice - Monday ahead . . .
Btw, do you also own a car? Or just those

@ Jojo,
Up until recently, we had a Toyota Previa 2.4 GL as well. (pic taken with the old Nokia 3230 when we first got the car.)
I sold that and bought us a newer and far more economical-to-run Vauxhall (Opel) Astra 2 weeks ago.

@ama - OK, that Toyota Previa WAS a big HIT in the 90's if I remember (at my end) . . . the 2006 model Previa is NICE-looking too . . . thanks !

@ Jojo,
There's still plenty of them around here, particularly in the east end of London where I work.
As regards the 2006 Previa, yeah I agree, it definitely does look good. I quite like the Lexus RX300 too.

@ama - Yup, look-alike of the Lexus . . . when I FIRST saw that Toyota Previa (at my end ) in the early 90's . . . I was a BIT (no offense meant to you dude) . . . 'cause the car that I saw travelling in the highway was in WHITE color . . . the moment I saw it, I thought I saw a running GIANT - 'egg'  because it was OBLONG-shaped . . . and you don't know where is the rear and front of it

@ Jojo,
, no offence taken pal, I can just about imagine people checking out the 'big white egg on 4 wheels' driving by when it was first launched.
I have to admit though that it was such an EGGsellent car  , by far the most reliable car I have owned to date. We toured all over England, Wales and Scotland with it, used it to move a lot of our personal effects when we bought our house and commuted daily with the thing over the past few years, and it never missed a beat.

@ama - I like the EGGSELLENT term that you used there mate . . . why NOT buy pick-up next time so you can put your BIKE at the back  Say, like a Ford F150 or a Toyota Tacoma

@ Jojo,
I might just do that, but pick-ups are quite scarce around here. (Mainly Mitsubishi and Nissan, although there are the usual others in even smaller numbers..)
People in the UK use vans like the Ford Transit, Renault Trafic, Mercedes Sprinter and Vito, VW Transporter etc instead for such tasks and duties. (Probably not helped by the dodgy UK weather!) Pick-ups are quite popular in SA though. They are called 'bakkies' in South Africa. (pronounced 'buckies'.)
Anyway, it's nearly 2am now and I'd better get to bed. Mrs A's even fallen asleep on the couch in the lounge while watching NCIS and CSI.
Good night, and have a good week, ya'll.

@ama - Yeah . . . if rare, I guess the spare parts are rare too, which is a MUST-first when looking for a car . . . right
Carry Ms. Ama from the couch and bring her to your comfy BED in the Master's Bedroom dude . . . just pretend it's like your FIRST day of honeymoon after your wedding day
G' night dude !
Have a nice Monday in the office . . .

Maybe strap on some additional equipment too? 
Tokoloshe is in Germany on biz, and mentioned that he'd taken his Megane diesel rentacar out onto the autobahn yesterday. Had it cranked up to 210km/h when a BMW 120d came sailing past him, as if he was looking for parking, lol

@ Kryptik,
LMAO! Now why didn't I think of that...mind you, if I was to dress like that before going at high speed, methinks I'd actually need a bit more than just a handy tractor tube...
Not much chance of excessive high speed with that 'ysterperd' in the pic though...
@ KBR,
Dang, I presume they had a dice from the lights before you even had a chance to get the cellphone's camera going...
Both beautiful cars...I really dig the Lambo though. That Ferrari is stunning too, but to me the 599 GTB looks almost too 'Japanese coupe' compared to most other distinctive Ferrari's.

LOL, Vodafone UK has just dropped the price of the Motorola KRZR K1 on PAYG again...it certainly hasn't enjoyed the success of the RAZR. It's now retailing for £79.95 (approx R1120).

Virgin UK has also cut the price of the very bling LG Shine by yet another £20 (approx R280) within 1 week. It now retails at £119.95 (approx R1680).
