Steve 75, you'd do better at the insults if you didn't have that ugly piece of sh1t on your profile! It's an eyesore.

Off! That's a classic piece of Italian Graph/Wedge-line avant garde, bold and striking.

And I'm a fellow MR2 owner.

Boring alert! Overrated matey. Just look at it, it's nothing special at all.

The Alfa worship on this site is tedious.

Oh dear.

No, I like it, sorry. Compared to its nemesis, the BMW E30 3-series, it grabs your attention.

You're not one of these people who thinks the Alfa Romeo 156 is 'ugly' because the numberplate isn't in the middle are you? Or who thinks the MR2 is 'ugly' because it has a vent on one side but not the other? These things are officious little details, look at the overall whole!

And how can anything with RWD and that V6 be a 'piece of shit'?

What's the matter?

I just farted and a pea rolled out.

Oh please. You like it and I don't and prefer the E30 M3. What's the problem?

I've said nothing about the 156. It's nice but the 159 is better - a stunner. As for the numberplate *issue*, I wouldn't be so petty.

I own a rather splendid Mk2 MR2T and I think they're great little cars, as is the Mk1. The bang for buck ratio for both cars is high.

Why is it that, in general, people who own chavved Jap cars also tend to have IQs lower than my shoe size?

There are some exceptions, obviously, but I'm going for the sweeping generalisation here.

Is that UK, US or European size?

And does a stainless steel exhaust constitute 'chavved up'?

Top marks for using the word 'chav' in conjunction with the word 'Jap'. What an original mind you have there Steve.

Almost as pithy as this Clarkson cliche found on your homepage:

'You're not a real petrolhead unless you've owned an Alfa Romeo'

Dullard.

I haven't read most of the thread (it seems to have descended into a fight anyway),but in reply to the original post...

Testarossa - ugly dinosaur? Be quiet. It's 80's tastic, I'd love one.

It's alright, you slip in under the exceptions rule, 'cos you appear to have a proper MR2 - the one that was essentially a modern X1/9 copy - not the hairdresser MkII.....

Hairdresser... haven't heard that one before! X1/9 copy...

Have you got anymore cutting remarks from the archives?

[tomTVR]

All 3 of those Jap cars look old.

Any suggestions for cars more than 10 years old that still look fresh today?

That looks about as 'fresh' as the last Lib Dem leader (in fact, isn't he driving it??) and look what they did to him.....

The problem is Steve you always wade in with criticism every time a Japanese car appears in a thread. I can only assume you are trolling, hoping for a little attention.

i like both supra and rx7 when standard, but not to keen on either of those...that said the supra is adamn sight more restrained than some of its ilk you see running around...just think white wheels on that mazda on a balck car are wrong all the way from the basement to teh top floor..ie..on SO many levels..

Sort of like yellow wheels on a red car you mean?

though arguably this in purple with pink wheels would still look fabulous.
