Pictured here with Neil Crowden , Group Sales Director at Lexus Wirral, handing me the keys to my new lexus.......(I don't think so Michael....this is the only available LFA available in the UK and Lexus have just rejected a bid of 450k on it and its 2 years old !......anyway it's not the right colour)

I love the idea and the technology on these but hate the looks
Did you know the chief designer died in one after a crash near the Nurburgring

Michael...you are looking more like Timmy Mallett in every picture

That is probably the sort of car he would drive too

It's strange how you build up a mental picture of the people that post on a forum.

Yes - I was sat opposite you on Saturday night at the Korean Restaurant.

I found you to be a very transparent person

My non appearance was due to a certain person not phoning me back as promised to tell me where you were going to eat .
When that certain person did sober up enough to ring back it was to bloomin' late.

My bad. I had constructed an accurate and very well worded text. However the send icon eluded me. I only sent it through about an hour late! Once again apologies for that.
So the motto is. I can organise a piss up in a brewery. However the restaurant after is a challenge.
Only by practice will I ever succeed

No apology necessary,we all make mistakes when playing with our icon.

Yes the guy with me in the picture told me the history of the car......As a dealership they managed to buy one which promptly got shipped to Taiwan, they were unable to get an insurance quote under 10k so never put it on the road......I have to say the car looks stunning in the metal and sounds amazing ........and as for looking like Timmy Mallet, have you ever had a look at yourself in a mirror Jockman

anyway…….I was having a bad hair day

Actually he was Hiromu Naruse and he was the chief test driver.

This car is a fantastic piece of engineering with an unbeatable exaust sound

That may be so .....but you also have a good sense of humour.
That makes up for a lot of your deficiencies ,except for the smell of urine.
That is just disgusting.
Wash yourself ,man.

With the exception of some shoe shops, mirrors tend to be mounted a bit high for Wee Jockman
