  1. Although I have had no problems with the upgrade I would like to point out that to "just get an up-to-date browser installed and solve your problem" is almost impossible on dial up with an older system. Many here don't have the luxury of a new computer and top of the line software. Mine is 8 years old but I have kept up with updates via DSL.

  4. Thanks guys for the help. Next question, is there a kit of it or something I can alter to look like it in any scale ? PS, 1930 Bentley Speed Six The first owner of this car was Bentley Chairman Woolf Barnato, and it is one of the most famous and unique vintage Bentleys in the world. For many years it was though to be the Blue Train Bentley that was used in a race between Barnato and the French train that ran between Cannes and London, but it is now accepted that another Barnato-owned Speed Six beat the train. The evocative design of this car is believed to have been sketched out by Barnato himself on the back of a napkin, and it was built by the Gurney Nutting Company. With its fastback, racy lines it really is the grandfather of the modern day GT. I found this info here ... http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z9510/B...-Speed-Six.aspx
