Hello Chunj. Apologies as a newcomer here, I haven't had the chance to read all 9 pages but I wonder if you could confirm how your name is pronounced? Is it Chunj to rhyme with gunge or Chunj to rhyme with tune?
Thanking you in advance for taking the time to respond to little old me.

If I may make so bold as to speak for His Chunjness, Chunj does indeed rhyme with gunge and, by so doing, raises gunge itself to an exulted status.

Sleep on, Sir Chunge, allow me to deal with these trifles.

Moving through the traffic like silk through your fingers, an Ignis slid into the overtaking lane in front of me. I was in awe. Could it be the fantastically rare Six Cat Paw Stickers Up The Rear Windshield model? It was!!! I could hardly believe it. As the suckers on its after sales sunshades held fast and protected the identities of the pilot and his VIPs so, like a ballet dancer on her points, the Ignis, tippy toe on its elegant slender tyres, powered away from me into the distance and was gone from my life forever. It was there, then it was gone.

What a moment! A moment I shall always treasure.

Tell us, Chunj.

Was it you?
Can I touch you? So privileged.

I think we have all experienced something like this in our time, it's certainly one to tell the grandchildren in years to come of the day we saw an ignite in the wild.

Chunj. It may have been asked already...

A man who pilots a carriage of such calibre...

What timepiece do you keep?

Chunj,

I believe there are plans afoot to make a Fast And Furious pie or die edition, to be shot in Glasgow. Are you planning to take part in it? If so, do you have any preference as to what shade of blue to paint the MightyI.

As far as I'm aware, he prefers to be known as "Chunj, a bit like clunge"

An exceptional choice.

My grandfather had one. A man of impeccable taste who chose such road weapons as a Morris Marina, Austin Maestro, Daewoo Espero and Vauxhall Corsa.



He was also a bit racist, like all the best people of his generation

That's a very reasonable and logical attitude regarding watches wink

Reason? Logic?

Who are you and what have you done with Robin Banks?

Chunky! I've done it! One off the bucket list, ambition achieved, dream fulfilled and gold top on my cereal.

AT LAST I HAVE DRIVEN THE MIGHTY IGNIS!



Tell me, if you will, did yours have this performance enhancement?



The reason I ask is because I had her up to almost 40 on the long straight past The Swan when I heard what I first thought was a wheel bearing on the way out but was in fact the Police Helicopter in 'Hat Passoott.' Don't worry, I shook them off by turning into the Labyrinth Industrial Estate.

Your thoughts and guidance please.

That's number 56. It used to be lime green and has recently been back to Suzuki for an oil change and a new set of rear mats.

No. 56 was also optioned with the rare "Torpedo" launcher, the tubes can be seen located on the front bumper.
I believe only 10 of the vehicles were spec'd with this option due to it's cost.

It also has the door reflectors. These can be retrofitted by returning the car to the factory (Halfords will attempt the job too)

It's a shame not more are so specified but it serves to make this one very special. I get the impression the driver of this particular car was very special.
