There were some chav wagons, one silver C reg one caught my attention.... :roll:

In fairness though there were also a lot of very stunning cars there too.

Guys just ask yourself where we would all be without these pillocks!

Halfords would go tits-up if it wasn't for these morons spewing counless thousands of pounds of their dole money through their tills :)

Where would you go on a Sunday morning for your spark plugs if that happened ehhh?

Lay off these muppets before its too late :P

Rob, The chav is a cool car in it's own way. If we all had tech2 kits and BBS wheels it would be a bloody boring place.

I hate my car because it's just "meh", It's neither shit nor something people stop to look at. A reaction is better than nothing.

Well I like it but I know some people get upset by the fibregash bits. I'm not really arsed though as I agree with your other comments Dave! It would be boring if we all had tech 2 kits etc.

No not at all Mick, Been feeling like that about my car for a hell of a long time tbh. A few nice trinkets does not make it into a nice car sadly.

No, No and no.

S50: I'm not putting 7k+ into this car. Simply not worth it.

Alpinas: Nope, I went with RD stuff as I wanted something different. I nearly went for Hartges last year but the had a sudden surge of common-ness

Interior: I have a very tidy black leather interior so why would I do that?

Remember in Independence Day when Will Smith & Jeff Goldblum fly the alien ship up to the mother ship ? I swear the Alien ship had controls just like that steering wheel :mad:

No. My money would be on the MR2 turbo, not many standard ones left either. Savage traction, no weight, easy 300hp, it may not last as long as an M3 but i bet its quicker, even after 60.

a mk1 mr2 is about that weight but not turbod, a mk2 mr2 turbo is about the 1250kg mark. turbos will be jap imports as we never got the turbo version.

Hahaha they were my exact thoughts after posting that!! Maybe in the targa version you could get a bit of action once you remove the roof panels...i know you can in a 300zx :D :D

Half the weight of a e46 m3 as I remember it not an e30. Anyway who gives a sh1t. The point was that they were quick that's it. Also they are not a nice car to drive or look at. It isn't that I like them it was just a through away comment. Jap crap. This thead is funny though. 10 pages of randomness. :cool:

I think the most homosexual car that a man could drive would have to be an MR2.... Even my nan would agree with that..... winkeye

many years back I was holding on round a wet sliproad in my 1.3 golf, having all the fun in the world as I noticed a guy with his mr2 balanced on a grass hump just shy of a big ditch.

He obviously didn't make said slip road so I hooted as I went past

the mk1 does look gay but its an exellent car beleive it or not and plenty faster than the normal mk2's! i paid £400 for my old one years ago, it was rusty but had 1 owner and full toyota history, made a tidy profit on it aswell...but thats history i wouldnt buy another unless i realy had no choice as they are a bit :pff:

I like some jap cars but i have a hatred for imprezas and civics. My old twin turbo 300zx was an absolute monster and also strangly sexy in dayglow yellow 8)
