I thought Budgie was the Nano specialist, not Ray

I've just got off the phone from Budgie and he hasn't got a Nano, but he could do me a numbers matching Hemi Road Runner, that no one seemed to have spotted in his latest bunch of pix!

Sod it. You only live once, I'm gonna buy a Bentley Continental before I'm too old to enjoy it!

As Dave says, the successor to the NSX.

Not sure about better handling, but certainly a lot more grunt.

Sorry to Hijack , but when i was at the Preston Cruse Sandy two months ago,as i was about to go home a Silver NSX drove into the Carpark just like Lindas,i though it was you and Linda! turned out it was someone else

Back to the SLR.

none of it matters, all cars are crap, whether they are french, german, italian, english, american, japanese, korean, russian, they are either too expensive, unreliable, uneconomical, parts arnt easily available or resonably priced or a combination of all of them still got to have one thou

simon you really dont know how many cars i have had matey, IT WILL BE MORE THAN YOU HAVE EVER DRIVEN WORK CARS OR NOT, and i can,t help but suspect that you are winding me up about not liking proper cars making a statement that you enjoyed a mondeo or a vectra, over a bm or a merc etc is sheer lunacy and you need commiting,

and what has on ramps apart got to do with anything ???? my old boss used to have a blower bentley, so what thats not me,
and if you could afford one i think you may have dipped in to your stash for something a little bit better than you have, like BLONDIE SANG, DREAMING IS FREE

so what is it am i not aloud to have an opinion because im young because this aint the first time this sort of "heated discussion" has happend

all i wanted to do was tell people i saw a mclaren and then i dont think they are that confortable [not the mclaren just mercs i have driven] but if this is what is going to happen every time i type something then i wont bother from now on#

Simon,i don't like Mercs (cant afford one anyway) but the ones i have been in are Comfy and Do not give you a bad back! it must be to do with climbing in and out of the cars that gave you a Bad back not the car itself.
Crazy

now pick up the toys and put them back in your pram

crikey Si, presuming you had weekends off and a few holidays that’s about 25 cars a day

a mate of Brad’s came down to the Nags in an SLR a couple of years ago, very nice piece of kit
