The best website is of little use if its down for hours on end, and plagued with server side problems. This is why we choose VERIO™ the worlds leading web hosting company, with offices in London SW6, a new Data Centre in Docklands London E1, and European Headquarters in Amsterdam.

Our connectivity to the internet is a massive 135Mb/s into 3 separate T3 backbones, servers are Silicon Graphics Origin 200s with Cisco 7505 series routers and switches, using the BGP4 protocol to route traffic down the fastest route. Each server is loaded with 256 - 512 Mb of Ram, fast Cheetah hard drives, and networked together with Networks Gigabit Ethernet switches, with all server data backed up daily to a Storage Tek 40 Terabyte robotic archival storage system.

We have available at any time a minimum of 100Gb/s of server disk space - which gives us more capacity than many multinational companies. Our virus protection is the same as that used by the biggest Internet service providers, and our systems are all firewall protected. We scan all email (to protect you as much as ourselves) and perform system/data backups onto our own remote drives, every 24hrs, or as best practice dictates.

The ourcar site is optimised for viewing with Microsoft Internet Explorer - the most popular browser program utilised by almost all systems. For security reasons you should ensure you have the latest version of Internet Explorer. You can download it free by going to www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.htm
