So it appears there are a fair few new cars being bought or considered at the moment. I thought it may be a good idea to have a thread for everyone to post pictures of their new P&J, all in one place. With the meet season only just round the corner it may be a good place to post links to cars your considering as well to get some extra opinions.

I'm unfortunately not lucky enough myself to be looking for a new car at the mo with lots of changes at work, new house blah blah blah, however I do feel like I need a toy and this is very tempting as a way to keep me amused!

My current ride is a traditional sports bike but my back not being what it used to be I keep getting tempted to change it, but enjoy it's looks and ride too much.

Eddie,

love the new car. Bet it pulls well with the D5!!

The chap that bought my car has a lovely Atom 300 for sale. I did mention you.... by the way, my (old) Z4M is off to Hayward Scott soon to have a new exhaust fitted! Nice! He brought his M3 down with the H&S exhaust on. Sounds incredible!

I bet it did, they do seem to produce good results for the money. Is it the PHN guy who has the A300?

Here is my new little car, the 605 should be going off to its new home tomorrow but here is the replacement.

A 206 GTi 180, its standard but with the Peugeot SP pack fitted. Its a lot of fun to drive and still pretty economical on a run. Here's a couple of pics.

Cheers Dave. Funny how your plans can change in a week. One minute i'm telling wifey that I am going to click 'buy it now' on a KTM supermoto on eBay, then she says "I dont want you getting a new bike, why dont you get a new car", Mondeo goes on PH next day, 5 days later it is sold and I looking for a replacement. Good week!!

Afternoon all!

Well as some of you know my time with both of my Citroen DS3 Racings was not a happy time as they both failed with the same engine issues. I've been told today that Citroen are re-imbursing me my money as it was of course rejected under the good old Sale Of Goods Act.

Now, one of the reasons I sold my SRT8 was to try and do the economic thing but that squarely bit me in the arse, so, as from tomorrow evening my new economy motoring will be in this....................







It has however been previously converted to LPG, so somewhat eco handy for my daily commute up and down the M3, but of course full on juice for those days of play.

Those large rear exhausts are there for a reason, 'tis a little loud, I'm also lead to believe from one of its previous PH owners that is has been tuned somewhat and I've seen a dyno print out for 488BHP........................

Will get my PH Smiley on the back as soon as our glorious masters get them in the shop.

Here's to some happy motoring again!

Thats more like it Stef!! I went with Jamie to see that car a few weeks back and the condition is fantastic. I think he would have bought it if it was in his budget! I look forwards to hearing it soon.
