What about using some precision instruments Struan?

Not an option sadly morgs, besides I'm known for my 'delicate touch' old boy, got a reputation to maintain and all that

Hoping this person is not a PH'er......

Travelling back from collecting the M3 in Wales, around Avonmouth (Southbound M5), I experienced a black 997 turbo being driven by an idiot with a point to prove (sat on my bumper for about half a mile when I had nowhere to go, then....)

When there is a ton of traffic, weaving in and out of lanes at X speed just so you can get 4 cars ahead is not the best approach.

I enjoy driving my car hard as much as the next PH'er, but carry on like that and you're going to end up dead (no doubt taking some poor unfortunate sod with you).

Just about to get a picture before I saw the driver sitting in it

Sorry, but you're having a couple of these:



I just imagined a scenario going up to the window like a dribbling freak saying "hur hur, smiley hur!"

Old school mini on the A303 near podimoore. Was a stripped out caged with plastic windows, couldnt hear the engine over the diffs on it!! Sounded like a proper weapon! Had a little blat with it, not a match for my straight line grunt but without a doubt a very quick car! Looked cool on the road too, think it was mainly white with blue decals etc

[LordGrover]

Did it have straight cut gearbox? Screams like a banshee!

[mboon]

O yes, it was screeming like a good'un. It sounded like a dumper behind with the amount of whine coming from the diffs etc. Sounded lovely! Looked the bit as well, had enough poke to make it a weapon. I bet not much would stick with it down some lanes

Saw that 612 again tonight, fair shout for using it as a daily hack about!

R1? But it says GSX-R on the side

Sounds a total hoot and would love to see it!
