Chunj - Is this your Ignis?

[Chunkymonkey71]

Saw one today with smoked lights and half of Ripspeeds catalogue stuck to it.

It saddened me greatly.

Like pinstriping on a McLaren...

Chunks, how's the noble beast doing?

[pad58]

I heard it was being prepped for an outing, just rumours you understand.
Can't wait.

I believe it was having an engine out detail the last I heard.

Apparently so. Although a lot of talk on the ignis forums about the benefits of detailing an engine. Apparently it will never look like new again some say.

Fruit and nut actually I'm told... Only the finest considered for this vehicle....

[Chunkymonkey71]

It's true.

I removed a nut and a bolt from my part worn Wanli tyre...

[RobinBanks]

Wanli are known for their excellence on the Ignis.

Chunj - did you not consider choosing any other Chinese part worns? If not, why?

[MidnightXR6]

Cant beat a Jinyu tyre on the Ignis.

What are your thoughts on this offering Chunj?

[vrsmxtb]

I've heard that the torque developed is so great that Wanli's are required, as any other rubber is so soft that the tread is reduced to below the legal limit within one 0-60 blast.

On top of that, there are also rumours you need around 249 driving hours behind the wheel before attempting said manouvre.

Truth or lies C?

Mr C to you.

Absolutely true.

In the event of nuclear apocalypse, all that will remain will be cockroaches and wanli tyres.

Jinyus are more for track use. They are quite hardcore. (I.e. Their core is hard).

Will you be returning the car to the Suzuki factory for this engine job?

Surely they are the only ones on the planet capable of handling such a delicate procedure?

I fell out with them when they refused to pinstripe my brake lines.

Instead, I've commissioned the work to a very focused specialist.

Big bobs budget tyres and exhausts.

He is a big name in (cut and shut) private Motorsport.

I present myself for hara kiri. Deepest of apologies for my clumsy, over familiar disrespect.

Dear Lord C of hunj, can I beg for a moment of your precious time to answer a question, please?

I can't imagine you want to rack up too many miles in the beautiful Ignis, so what is your daily driver?

I will suck you off if you answer as my life is utterly meaningless. Thank you.

Ignore this, it's his chat up line. He uses it on everybody!

[Chunkymonkey71]

When I'm not driving the stey SAAB that I bought on ebay when I was scooped (ps- anyone want a SAAB 9/3?)

I mostly drive my workie van- Citroen Berlingo.

I'm going to Poland soon to buy a Fiat 126 and drive it back though. True story. Seen one I like and am making the phonecall later today to hopefully seal the deal.

Not to question either your superlative automotive knowledge or your impeccable taste, but I must remind you that a Yugo Zastava is 0.8s faster around the ring (I am of course referring to the Milton Keynes Ring, not that overrated German one).
