Yes apparently this is straightforward. The lack of torque is already irritating compared to even the Yaris engine

In my current position I'm inclined to agree Rich, though No 27 doesn't:

Last weekends want

Anyone who saw my previous post and thought 'bollocks, I bet you're not just saving'.... Congratulations on your foresight. I bought a Mk3 MR2 last weekend.

It was only £2.8k and given I've only run diesels for the last three years, something had to give. It's may not be a ...

I've heard good things about Chennai, but it's more local to Dan so he'll know more. I've eaten at Spice Fusion and it's on a par with Vhujon

Yes parking by the medical centre is best in Bewdley.

This is quite self serving as it's my fave restaurant in the area, but is Bewdley any good for people?

Just watched this. Glorious stuff.

This is the video from the guy who went undercover:

Throttlehouse nailing Clarkson's 'you're not a real enthusiast until you've owned an Alfa' line, the night before Grand Tour goes to air.

Quite a nice noise

Rumours in The Sun that it's being rebooted with Jimmy Carr. Missed a trick by not making a series called 'Jimmy Carr's Cars' if they do that.

I found an interview where he says his cars are an investment; no sign of him being a real car person. Also he'll be utterly wrong doing TG; he's either ...

This one's just been listed, seems a good price. It's leggy, but condition is everything blah blah

Answers on a postcard as to why Pizza Hut owned it :)

I struggled to fit in YK's at Bedford when he ...

I've watched many cars end up on their roof through that section over the years

I posted a video on this thread then thought better of it and deleted it. Guy turned his Westfield over at Crossing at Shelsley a couple of months ago. Badly injured his arms, wasn't wearing arm restraints apparently.

PS. according to the on board data I did 0 - 60 in 3.7 seconds off the line, its fucking steep so i'm now intrigued to know what it'd do on the flat.

That was the first time i've ever launched the car, i've been too scared to break something before now so i've never tried.


None too shabby ...

Good work mate, I've only ran there the one day too and my fastest time was 33.43 in the SLR... with no passenger. Of course, the tyre technology was inferior then though

I would of course quite like to get on a plane and do the 5hr 5000rpm motorway cruise of correctness again in a 7, especially if I get a decent dinner before attempting such a drive :mrgreen: 👌

Modded MX5s makes a tonne of sense as a jack of all trades. If I remember rightly though, John of this ...

I have seen that one of course, but discounted it cos I think it'll be too expensive on the day! Fun facts, Steve Coogan's just bought one and Andy Wilman wants one. And my mate Ben is spamming me telling me I'm a fool for not buying one while they're cheap.

My name is Chris and I have a problem. Quite a fun one, but it's getting a bit obsessive. Are we all like this, still, despite getting a bit older?

I am officially 'just saving' for a second car. But this has increased my searching the classifieds to a crazy extent. Still no idea what it is I ...

Enjoyed this, distillery tours clearly the best way to take in Scotland
