Win a BBS Service Reset Tool.
Ok guys & gals, as you all know i like a bit of fun and following on from another related post here on the board I have an idea i hope you will like.
I know a lot of you have service reset reminders you can't easily reset without something like our Can Mate SRT (Service Reset Tool)
http://www.blackbox-solutions.com/downloads/videos/SRT.html
Of course many simply do not worry about it, but i wonder just what the most overdue reminder is out there.
In order to help us all find out and have a bit of communal fun into the bargain, i have therefore decided to put three of our service reset tools up as prizes.
The winner (with the most overdue reminder) will get one free of charge, the other 2 runners up will be picked at random from all other entries and will be offered the chance to buy the SRT at 50% off RRP, Thats just 25 GBP. we will pay the postage. However that 50% is to be paid not to us at BBS, but to Martin as donations to the board. If they decline, it will be offered to another participant chosen at random, So i truly hope you will all join in and post what your overdue reminder is.
Sadly because our Faultmate equipment can be used to enter any values, i have to exclude it's owners
Also to stop any cheating i will require all winners to post up / send me pictures of their overdue reminder warning values. No photo shopping allowed, trust me i can tell
The contest will end on midnight Dec 15th to give us enough time to send the prizes out for Christmas.
So please feel free to post up just what your overdue reminder is at, after all what have you got to loose.
A warmest regards to all members and hopefully a happier christmas than usual to the winners.

If only i'd known about this in January I would have told the dealer to not bother resetting it
But you ignored my PM enquiry I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Ha! No one will spot that, it's a forgery of pure genius! Dr. Ian Malcolm:

Transgenic tomato anyone?

If thats days, your last service was due in 1987 I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.
