I may have to upgrade once I've paid off my car loan in $5999.27 time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope my new Silhouette XR6T comes as the BF in Nov 05. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also with the comments about the BF taking the BA resale right down I think is a little off the mark. it will certainly take the resale down but nothing more than the mark II did to the mark I. I think that they will need to make a huge change (like change of shape) to really effect the resale of the BA...Just my uneducated 2c... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
