Cheer up pod,

Look at it in the longer term, all the money you are saving...you know ....fuel/tyres/oil by running such an ultra reliable machine you could get another chim in a few months especially as the market value is still "downward"!

[Bomber Denton]

Is that a 'private hire car'?

Maybe you should have bought a v40 T4 after all!

[Parrot of Doom]

I think I'll stick some speakers underneath it and link a soundfile of the V8 to the accelerator pedal.....

[Red V8]

Might make it sound better, but it will still look the same

Hi Parrot,yep it will run 4 ever,but if your boredom threshold is as low as mine,you could always chuck in a 55 AMG lump..

LOL, while your at it you could bolt on all the other crap from halfords.

[Balmoral Green]

About half an hour ago I popped down to the local McDonalds, there was a lad in a Saxo with his front w*nker lights on, blue neon washer jets and loads of red neons along the sills and just to finish it all off, impressively naff, some sort of neon ring around the tailpipe which illuminated with his brake lights.

All it needed was a fairy on top, still, it is Christmas

[Dinod]

Tinted windows, Chrome spinners, twin exhausts, bling old style merc badge and grille, fake limo ariel (that boomerang shape one) in chrome with flashing lights, and an all time Merc classic-chrome fender trims.

This should get you some looks.....

[Parrot of Doom]
