Thanks, it's starting to grow on me
Nice, my mechanic has already said he'll fit a fast jap engine in for me but i've declined for now as it's supposed to be sensible daily drive for now
Going to strip it and track it once the cabby's done

Wanted another E30 (chromie) really but couldn't find a good one within budget. Got fed up so bought this as I needed a car
Sold the MR2 a couple of months back for a tidy profit

LOL, fair play to cheap run around though
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

All in good faith mate, I know what context it was written it
Takes a lot more than that to get to me
Keep hearing that, not until the cabby's done, that's first priority

My youngest bro is whizzing round not too far from you in one of those too, Imy. It rocks. Cheap and cheerful, you don't need to worry about it, and if something goes wrong, which it never does, it costs about 12p to fix. Couldn't beat it with a big stick!!
