This is the 3rd time i've seen a post like that on here.
Still I signed it anyway even if it is all pie in the sky.

Yeah I signed it, but I reckon its crap...damn scary thought though.Hedgehog you still want to swap wheels??? I'm still trying to get hold of the local refurber, just need to know whether to bother to sort it out now or later if you get me?

I signed it in a flash 2 days ago. it stood at 199 000 petitions. now its at 293,200 in just 2 days. its by far the most popular petition. Good luck everyone. Best not take this lying down like the public normally do.
