regular V8 not being sold anymore, it's weird that the Carbon Fibre model was sold on eBay at all. V10 replaced V8 and they took it off the...

You can most definitely buy a new battery, and it's pretty easy to replace, so no need to fork out 1k on the latest thing. If you want, you...

I agree, this is almost the least OzBargainy post I've ever seen. A Qi charger for $50? Holy crap. Also, your website has one for $104.95...

It's not quite like that though. I think a car is a better analogy. Your car can go 200 km/h, but petrol runs out real fast. (it's also...
