Now my Griff isn't the loudest but......
.....Sitting at Billericay Station (engine running) tonight for about 3 mins waiting for the misses to arrive and a old guy (a little older than Victor Mel) sitting behind me starts to leave, pulls along side me with his equally elderly wife in the car and thanked me for the exhaust fumes and that my engine was for wan#ers! eek
1st time I've had a comment like that! My chin nearly hit the steering wheel, I was so stunned. He drove off before I could return a comment.

What's the world coming to when you can't enjoy these machines without some moaning old git disapproving!

Quite right too Griff owners cars that are too loud deserve comments like that and Asbos also yes

And i hope you are going to the Growl so you can find out what a loud Griff sounds like hehe

I'm a wan#er; indeed, I'm a very happy and contented wan#er. You're probably very happy and contented at being a wan#er too!
