After seeing madbadgers sparkling clean tamora here www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=239401&f=13&h=0&p=2
i find myself drooling and wanting to trade up from my chimp, i just love black when it looks that good.
After getting my car just as i want it, its been polish to death, im looking to pastures new, summers on the way let the search begin, well maybe ??????

Nah, you don't want one really.

They have got a fat arse and the speed 6 will just break. And they sound rubbish.










Well, have to keep the exclusivity up somehow.

I too hate my car, the roof on mine can be 'collapsed' exposing me to the sun, resulting in a 'sun tan' after only a few hours of driving on summer afternoons.

This was a particular problem whilst driving in the alps last summer. I even had to wear special 'sun-glasses' to protect my eyes.

How I envy those with a Coupe.

.. and the noise!

Hilarious thread!




I'd just like to add that, I can certainly remember not enjoying the one I had at all, on countless occasions. It wierdly looked a lot worse in real life to the photos and wasn't very fast at all. Neither was it much fun with the roof not remotely neatly stowed away in it's boot during the winter of 2004, or at night. I avoided all tunnels wherever possible and I never drove round and round big roundabouts aimlessly either.

Well - you know when you want to be facing the other way, and you drive round the block.

That's your turning circle, that is.

Not only do they let the sun and rain in, and have a turning circle the size of the Oval, but they have a ground clearance of 2mm! Another real problem I found was the whole speed and acceleration thing. What's wrong with a Clio diesel?

Ive heard the turning circle is quite good, Come on guys you need to perfect a different technique.
Whilst holding the wheel at full lock, raise the revs to 6k and dump the clutch.

You should find that she,ll now turn on her nose

Ways and means
