Please don't try to race a 5 litre TVR, you'll just end up making yourself look silly hehe

Yes, I know BMW's are good, I've got one too but please don't hog the overtaking lane or I'll just have to blast by your nearside like I did this morning.

330d's, know your place wink

He wasn't trying to race you, he was probably simply following and at the same time trying to pick up the bits of your TVR that were falling off hehewink

Oh he was definitely trying his hardest... I don't think he realised quite how quick a Griff is driving

Ok Ok, you can put your feathered male bird away now........And move over, there is a proper kit car waiting to get past.
Maybe you should have a re match when you both have 180,000 miles on the clock wink

rofl Purlease, you're all making the whole BMW stereotype too easy... The right hand lane isn't the BMW lane, if I'm in mine I'll always pull over if there's something quicker behind me, this cock wasn't going to...

Some people just need teaching a lesson and this muppet was one of them.

Fair enough, what really does grind my gears is a faster car behind me dying to get past, then when I pull into lane 2 will go 1mph faster than me with me approaching a car in my lane thus meaning I have to brake :/

Wouldn't a chipped 330d have the edge at higher speeds - reckon a 335d definitely would.

+1 A mate of mine had a 450 Chimera (which I utterly loved btw) and it was surprising how little ground it was able to make on my old Impreza turbo. A 335d would be a pretty stiff challenge for the TVR methinks !

Possibly and very probably, and I could give an educated (simulated) guess if I knew the power/revs and torque revs of such vehicles. nerd

Owning a chipped 535D, I'd love to have a go with him as whilst I'm sure he'd have the edge he'd be bloody surprised how quick a diesel can be biggrin

Well a Veyron would certainly be quicker, but this wasn't a Veyron, it was a 330D wink As for an M5, it's currently on a shortlist of one to replace the 528I when I retire her... Trouble is she is too bloody good at what she does too. She's just not that quick biggrin
