George, forgive me but if you bought at 5 and sold at 9 what are you disappointed with, if you think the company would be worth more in the future you would not have sold. I am a little confused with your post but happy to give you the benefit of the doubt... There are many conflicting opinions on any board, some have their own agenda, identity those posters that you feel give a balanced approach. Tap on someone�s name to see previous posts. You can do worse than listen to Lewbo18, Seeing2020 and sandykneesurfer to give you the start I think you may find useful. Then again what do I know!!! Numpty

On Thursday we were kings of all we surveyed, today the sentiment is dire, for goodness sake... Building a world class empire does not come without glitches and progress will never be a straight line upwards. Speaking personally, I have been more focused on the lack of updates for the chip, 85% in early March and then silence is potentially more of an issue than today�s somewhat predictable rns. We have a big railway contract announcement, an unknown second airline involvement, oem contract updates, and Euro ncap 4&5star requirements to look forward to, among countless others...so consider what has already been achieved and how we felt on Thursday. I have just topped up. This is too good an opportunity not to Numpty

Ouch, some of the comments are totally over the top this morning! Take a moment to put this in context. Obviously it’s disappointing but not unexpected to anyone surely. This is a short term delay that unfortunately coincides with year end figures.

I would love to be a fly on the wall in Wolfsburg today, I�m sure the discussion would be interesting to say the least. Numpty

I suspect that we are all a little disappointed with guardian 2 being slow out of the blocks, but once it�s away there will be no stopping it. For one thing we have a large and growing number of confirmed orders to fulfill. Today the list grew a little longer. As for the chip, it was 85% completed in early March... again once, in delivery the whole situation will take on a very different appearance. Success breeds success, and see has it on many fronts, happy to hold. Numpty

Once again very well put, well done sandy Any newbies wanting a balanced view of this company just click on sandykneesurfer and have a read at the previous pieces.

The whole point of the announcement on Wednesday is to improve the long term safety of European roads. It would be self defeating to insist on something that is either not achievable or achievable only if rushed out by cutting corners. I cannot believe anything will be mandated without firstly having in-depth discussions with everybody involved with implementation. Perhaps these discussions were part of the huge advances that ken alluded to that have never been reported. I firmly believe that we are going to enjoy our week, and enjoy it a lot, but not naive enough to expect that it will all go our way. 7.38 has always been my initial goal, it is tantalisingly close and would make a perfect birthday present for me on Monday,Then we will be away... Numpty

On March 15 we were told that the chip was 85% completed, but I cannot recall that a timeframe was given for completion, anyone care to guesstimate

Great video of mikes last meeting, but thought both Sophie and ken looked like they needed a holiday...I understand Wolfsburg in Germany is very pleasant at this time of year, perhaps they should go... Numpty

Wondergoals, did you mean big Jamie... Numpty

There have been various posts that have recently been trying to explain our situation. I am just guessing as well... Kk has lost the input of his ceo, so has two jobs currently. There is a monumental amount of progress in More directions than we can keep up with without a chart. Kk has alluded to massive progress that we do not know about. Ncap has ramped up timescales. Could we simply be witnessing a chairman firefighting problems and pushing shareholder relations down his list of priorities. Just a thought... Numpty

I believe a sense of perspective is required, none of us can be surprised at the civil unrest, it happens everywhere occasionally. In Central America it just happens a little more, but that is where the gold is. It is a bit early to be giving up and running for the hills. There is a very reasonable chance that in a week or two this will seem like old news and we can once more get back to whinging about permits.

Kk understandably would not be drawn on oem 3 being BMW, but made a point of mentioning the article. He wanted to clarify that the article valuation was obtained by multiplying an amount by the total number of vehicles made and that this is incorrect. Updates are usually incorporated when a model is refreshed or obviously when a new model is released. My assumption was simply that if our tech is within a new instrument cluster it�s likely to be rolled out to all, over an assumed timescale. Numpty

Unfortunately the safestocks article has been questioned. we do not know which models we will get or when those models will be revamped...yet. So although it is obviously good news, we cannot simply multiply our cut by the number of vehicles made by bmw in order to get an accurate valuation. If a ball park guess-timate is wanted then perhaps assuming a new instrument cluster means we get all models but perhaps on a rolling 1 -2 models per year basis over 6 years may be more accurate, but what do I know...

IMHO politics was always going to top the list of risks with this project. Am I worried, well it is not great news... or is it?protesting over inaction over fires in Indio Maiz biological reserve morphed into protest over pension concerns which then escalated and morphed into an anti police protest. Short term there is bound to be uncertainty, but let�s not get this blown out of proportion. TheNicaraguan government has a golden goose (called condor) the golden eggs will hatch, but not before permits are granted. Those golden eggs will bring much needed revenue to government in need of revenue. Bezzell posted a very sensible and believable piece, which among other things suggested that mr Ortega needs only to give our permits his blessing and that is us out of the starting blocks. This might just be the final push that we need. So to answer my opening question, no I am not worried but will be watching, and half expecting an expedited decision to be taken. But then again what do I know, dyor. Numpty

It has taken a while but my previous top up at 60p does not seem quite such a disastrous move, (just really really poor) it did nothing to help the average...hey ho we all make them occasionally but the game is not over yet. Numpty

Teletrac navman has been on lewbos chart for some time as a possible. Numpty

This morning I was feeling fully justified in my frustration at this sp. lots of others clearly feel the same despondency. I did intend to leave it until the 28th before whinging on, since I am a Pom and that�s the fourth anniversary of me joining this merry team. Perhaps now is better time. Yes there is a seller p###ing on our fire, and yes the sp is gradually slipping a tad, but look at The bigger picture, look what�s been achieved in that time, consider how a perfect storm of insurance discount (potential), ncap, ntsb, public perceptions, multiple oem wins etc is all coming together, It all appears to converge on 2020. Perhaps it is time for sandykneesurfer to repost reasons to be cheerful 1-4, time for us to take another look at the Lewbo18 chart and perhaps join seb in a cold one or two. I was wrong to feel despondent this morning as there is so much to look forward to and I am still comfortable in continuing to hold. However, Should the seller naff off I will enjoy a cold one even more. Numpty

I Was under the impression that guardian was already tested and being manufactured, shipped and fitted in growing numbers to fill the large and growing order book. It would be great to hear confirmation of numbers. It would also be great to hear whether the details of insurance costs have been concluded. They ( Zurich?) were talking about a potential 20 % reduction for trucks with driver Monitoring. That would really drive sales forward as another factor in the perfect storm that see is becoming. Numpty

The 41,167 shares listed as sell are in fact a buy, the 208,958 shares yet unreported are also a buy. The system is rubbish and needs changing.
