Try asking them if they are original. I used to speak to my car, it talked back a few times aswell.

This only happened when I left Ants house after smoking what I thought were roll ups! :cool:

The centre caps have defo been in a refurb shop as they have swril marks under the paint so any markings have now been rubbed away, so in other words they are plain on both sides :(
