Girls car?? I thought the Cougar was the mans version of the puma, which was a girlied up fiesta, unless it was the puma racing which was then manly again but not as manly as the V6 Cougar that was manly unless you only went for the 2.0litre version which made it girly?

Hey Scott, we were trying to protest the lack of absense to the Cinema for both you and Mr Timberlake. So we were going to try and get you in in the Skoda supercar... Ive got some Smart Roadster badges you can stick on it? They may let you in then? If not then hows about you and him getting together as a camera car?

As soon as my girlfriend bought one, it just looked wrong to see men trying to look manly in one...

They are nice cars, but the ST24/200 is the mans model for me smile

Ah good choice...

E30 325i with the BBS alloys. I used to want one but since about 2001 their prices seem to have gone up as time has gone by. I worked with a fellow in Carlisle back then who had a lovely silver one with M bits on, 125,000 miles and it ran perfectly... lovely cars.

There is a place over in Sherburn that does up E30 M3's for racing and the like, have a unit on the industrial estate, went over there a few years back and was just oogling lovely E30 related fast bits for a few hours biggrin


Really are spot on cars, punch well above their spec sheet suggests too, they just feel to carry so much speed in bends with so much control and so smoothly, they almost feel slow smile
