Yes and they shared parts during races.

Both those belong to Mahinda. He owns the Kelaniya sale and Yunikon

Anyone know who runs this blog?

I believe somewhere in the range of 4-5 mil. Are we talking about Dinesh's old one or Mahinda's one?

I'de hold back on the celebrations till we see an actual price drop!

Bumpers off! Gives a mean look!

Probably it's doing about 30mph....

Miniace in a Civic? OMG! That's hard to picture...

Ela Kiri!

Shows how jobless he is!

I don't think Andrew will be interested in a friend's ex... LOL

Once you go beyond about 5 Megapixels it doesn't matter unless you're going to make hoarding size prints. 40D definitely has better image quality than the 450D and as reviewed by dpreview.com even better that its own successor 50D! The 2 megapixel bump in the 50D has introduced more digital noise.

Even less. Got it for $48. Blame the Sri Lankan Tax!

Got myself this, hope it doesn't disappoint... http://www.meguiarsdirect.com/detail/MEG+COMPLETE

GTAM, where is the location? I see a lot of Micro vehicles around?

Happy Birthday yo!

Biggest piece of junk from the junkyards of Detroit!

The one I had plus the GX- one just carries AC Schnitzer badges and some cosmetic mods that were fitted later. But the E46 compact (orange- red) came from the UK including AC Schnitzer wheels, suspension, exhaust and full bodykit

Nikon vs Canon is similar to the Evo vs Scooby debate! It's very hard to say one is better over the other and lot of the time it just narrows down to personal taste. Nikon's of the D40 generation are known to produce softer images as opposed to Canons. But the Nikons are very user friendly offering dedicated buttons for a lot of functions whereas in the entry level Canons you have to navigate to the menu to access those functions.

2003, Manual had about 40k on the clock. Got 5.3 for it after a hectic time in July 2007.

Need to replace the front bonnet, grill and front fenders. Apart that the rear quarter panels and trunk lid are different too. But I don't think anybody goes to the length to replace those. I believe the mileage is genuine. Because I know a lot cars that are very rarely run.

Most facelift cars were H number plates and after, so this sounds a little strange. Also the face lift cars came with the common rail engine. People say all sorts of things about the diesel pump. But this 45k story applies to pre-facelift cars without the common rail engine. Then there's the belief that the common rail engine is good for only 100K miles! Check the engine to see if it's common rail or not. The pre-face lift came with original 15" wheels and the face lift came with 16" due to larger front brake disks. Considering the number plate is old I don't think even 5.5 is worth offering. Sri lankan market is such that, people will devalue this car due to the old plate and you will have a tough time selling it one day.

If you're upgrading from a basic DSLR then I would advice on the 40D and probably pick up some goodies for the rest of the cash. But if this is your first DSLR then 450D is a good camera. Build quality wise the 450D is very toyish compared to the 40D but also keep in mind that gives the 40d some added weight too.

Oh is that the question I missed? Yeah Auto trannys were a bit rare I'm guessing around 4 mil....
