I was passing the Rock and Roll emporium that is Northampton's "The Roadmender" yesterday, when I over heard one teenager say to another in the queue.

"Woah man, now that is one SICK car"


Is that good ? !!

Only "sick mother of a car" is better AFAIK.

possibly "one (sic)" car, but then probably not as it wouldn't apply

"Sick" is very old surfing-speak. "Man, when I got on that wave it was all squirly, but I rode it till went sweet. Sick, man. Yeah, sick."


Right LA, so they were respecting the marque then!

When I first got the 911 I stopped to fill up, and a group of kids ran up and told me it was fat. Now I don't have the most athletic build known to man, so I assumed they were insulting me, upon further thought, it turns out they meant the car was 'phat'......it means very good apparently?

Here's an idea...

Noble should take a couple of M12's to a primary school and ask the kids what they think - the results would be very amusing as, after all, this audience will be potential owners of the M600, M900 and the fabulous M1000 model line-ups!!! LOL

Whoa! Those cars are as sick as sick can be. Stand well back, dude, and feel the vibrations. Sweet pads, or what? Awesome. Cool sight, cool sight. Yeah, man. Those cars are soooo tight. I'm hanging in there till I gets me one. Sure am. I'll start low end without sinking then work my way up. Sweet? Super sweet! A slice of freakin' heaven. Yeah. See ya, man. Later, dude.



Yep, you're definately in LA man and up kinda late, eh?!

No- but I often get asked if they are to change gear (despite the whopping great big gear knob in the middle!)

The NOs thing is because Lee apparently has the same taste in steering wheels as the car designer from 'The Fast & The Furious'. The buttons are NOs on the film car. If thats not reason enough to change it I don't know what is!

I had this in Halfords car park. As I was walking up to the car there were two young lads looking in and one said "F*** me, it's got Nos too...look at the buttons on the wheel!". After a polite "Scuze me, mate" I was asked if it had Nos and, I couldn't help myself, I said "Yeah, there's 4 bottles in the boot...but I only use it when I want to go over 200 mph". I then drove it like an old woman out of the car park trying not to laugh!
