RobinJI Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 And you keep taking the bate. Just shut up already, all it takes is for one of you to stop responding, it'd be over, and we'd all like both of you more than if you continue this pointless crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadManMike Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 This thread is usually interesting, but at the moment it's annoying. Take your pointless row to PM's or just STFU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 This argument sucks. I've got a deadline coming up, so went and played in the mud instead of working. I love this car, even if it did decide that a mile into my drive friday that electrically operated wipers are gay and deserve no place in it, no matter how much the rain pours. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete.M Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hey Robin, I was just thinking about that place. What are the laws on sliding about on that beach? And wouldn't it be terrible for your car? In other news; picking up an old Volvo tomorrow. Already got a manual boost controller for it, hoping to get about 190bhp for pennies.

RobinJI Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Yay, now I'm going to sift through my facebook for any photos I've taken in the last year or so, to try and add some interest to the thread again... Lotus Esprit + Air-ride = huge win! Early RX-7's make me feel all warm inside: Still struggling with an irrational want for one of these: Napier W12 aero engined Bugatti, drool: I want one: That was in this, ex works SD1: Some fun being had at Castle Combe: Awesome Imp super-saloon (well it's a singer chamois, but close enough): My old colleges race car holding it's own against bigger engined stuff: My friend Alan's Jowett Long 7 Saloon, 1934 if I remember right, and won this years 'Classic car of the year': That'll do for now I think.

RobinJI Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Pete, sliding around there's pretty frowned upon, it's far from accepted as being ok. It's technically a public car-park, so the same rules as any other apply really. If it's quiet then a bit of fun's generally let slip, but go there just to slide around and make lots of noise and a panda car will usually turn up before too long. You'd get away with a fair bit if you go in the middle of the day on a school day though, as long as you're being sensible and not nearly running over dog walkers/children. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pashley26 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Today Phil and I fitted a meth kit, chopped an inch out of my exhaust and fitted a dogbone mount to his A3. I wired in the Road Angel that Pierre gave me, Oh, and the other day somebody crashed into my car outside my house hence the PMT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pashley26 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Scuffed bumper, scuffed and dented wing, smashed mirror. snapped inner wheel arch and a scuff on the wheel. Not a clue how it happened, parked up at about half 5 after work and it was perfect. Went to the cinema with a friend and came back at 1, went out to it in the morning and went to drive it forward to my gate so I could wash it and the inner wheel arch pulled out and scuffed where it was all bent in. That was the first I knew. Didn't really take any pictures of it, because I needed to get to the scrappy by 12 to fix it. I used an arch roller to pull it back straight, there's a crease on the back of the wing still but this is the basics after straightening it out - The outer lip was bent in, so using a scaffolding pole as a pikey arch roller I pulled it straight. And the wheel, but a fairly poop picture - Edited January 13, 2013 by Pashley26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Is that a Honda? Its MPG and reliability are better than my choice, but the Stingray beats all cars purely in f**k you value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yerp Civic. For your listening pleasure and what got me hooked on civics: Ah im just not so keen on american muscle. All that big engine, but such little power.

MadManMike Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Stingray is a bizarre choice. I understand Mustangs, but the Stingray is just... hmm.... I don't know. Not my bag.

Revolver Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Troy, yeah, that's one of the sad things about it but the size of the engine just makes it sound so good. People are on about bass in music, the stingray has some serious bass for an engine sound. And it looks killer.

Skoze Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 What's wrong with the 300+ horsepower you get from most big V8s?! If the cars they went in weren't so f**king barge-inspired they'd be a lot quicker... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
