Just wondered if anyone had as an amazing car or bike like me:

Model: Peugeot 206
Engine: 1.1
0-60: Yes it does it
0-100: Downhill with the wind behind.

Point of interest... I also call her Leah

My Current ride is a 1973 Chevorlet Nova 2 dr hatch back. 350 cid ( 5.7 liter) V8 with a four speed automatic transmission and air ride suspension. It's in dire need of paint and interior work but it runs decent enough.

That's the best. Doesn't go 100 though. Doesn't go 60 either. Maybe 30 if I try hard:

I don't own a car - but I am a serial car-hirer. I live 5 minutes from Manchester on the train, and since that's the only place I regularly go, it's fine. When I do need a car, I hire one, so do it about 40-50 days a year. That costs about £1000 per year. If it's business related it's tax-deductible (unlike ownership). Road tax, insurance, repairs and MOT are included in the price, and I suffer no depreciation in price. I don't know why everyone doesn't do it.

Last week I booked a group B car (Corsa etc.) and the renter had none in, so I got a free upgrade to a 1.8 Renault Megane convertible. That was cool. Cool

Pepper daydreaming again? i had a 97 coupe, bit of a hairdresser's car but zippy and sleek with the bodykit Smile


That's a dream car, but really the car i've got for the moment Wink
I also had the 97 coupe (grey) and before that, i had (well... my parents actually lol) a red one from 86, but berline like... dont know if you see what i mean.

I love Honda Razz

Well, since you asked...



Early 2000s ex-F1 V10 tweaked by HKS, approx. 900 bhp. 4WD system, Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, Rays Engineering purpose-designed wheels, TEIN rose-jointed suspension system, Pirelli high-grip tyres, nitrous oxide system and dixie horn.

I don't actually get allowed out on the roads until May next year. Sad

Yeah got a mountain bike, but since i gained 5 stone I haven't ridden it. Come to think of it, thats prob why I've gained 5 stone. The rusty old thing would probably give me hepititis B anyway. (Spell check on Hepititis)

Ok Steve, this is getting really weird. Same subjects at college, birthdays in same month, and I like Suzuki Swifts too. Not that I'll be getting one as a first car. In fact, with the possibility of my going to Uni, I probably won't be getting my own car for a few years.
