To the british chaps that were in the red VXR8 trough Belgium today (Antwerp on their way to Germany, perhaps the 'ring?), I was the one driving besides you in the black 159 giving you the thumbs up.

The driver looked disturbed for some reason, don't know why.

Anyway, nice car, nice sound. Hope you give it some on the 'ring!

That's funny, when I tell people "I drive a 159" they know what it is.
When I told them "I saw a VXR8" nobody had a clue biggrin

Ah well, that's because they are really HSV Clubsport R8's.

But I know what you mean. When I tell them "mine's a Maloo" they say, what's that, and I tell them: "Its a milk float"!

Hey mate, only pulling your leg. You are a petrolhead and very welcome on here. beer

No need to appologize, it's not a bad thing if no-one knows your car. A lot of people i go out with don't know what a Caterham is biggrin.

Actually I have driven one, and the Top Gear review was brilliant. Just doesn't have enough cylinders for me!

Ok, great!

Yes, that ring road is a pain in the ass, but the only way to get trough Belgium no mather where you want to go (Brussels, Holland, Germany, you name it) biggrin
