Hello,
Don't know what the format is for introductions, but let me be general.
I own a 99' Oldsmobile Aurora, with a v8 4.0L Northstar engine.

I have been a fan of Top Gear... Haven't been overly interested with Fifth Gear, although just take it as a personal preferance and not a general opinion. I just find it more enjoyable overall. I have all the newer seasons of top gear since 2002, and of course these are all legally obtained images/smilies/mrgreen.gif .

Supercars are supposed to run over Arthur Scargill and then run over him again for good measure.

Sweet, an Aurora. One of the coolest GM sedans ever (especially the 1st-gen; even though you have a 2nd gen, I'll let that slide images/smilies/biggrin.gif).

Hi everybody,
How to present myself ? I love cars since I'm 7 or less, and since 2-3 years I like to take pics of them ... it's quite simple, I live in Nice which is at 20min from Monaco images/smilies/thumbsup.gif
I also like & watch TG and 5th gear, and I'm also really images/smilies/cry.gif about what happens to Richard !
Last thing, I'm French ... and not English, so if I'm doing "language mistacks", please forget them images/smilies/rolleyes.gif
Here is also my cars/pics site : http://trasosworld.free.fr ... it has been creat since less than 3 weeks, but there's also some pics !
Bye & see you on the forum 8)

I think your our second Indian member. The first one actually lives in Germany though.

Do you own a car there in India. I hear driving there is pretty insane images/smilies/lol.gif

images/smilies/welcome.gif Sweet, a bike. Makes more sense considering the chaos of driving there (just like in China, where I'm from).

Default Another Newbie!

Hi,
I have finally joined this great websites forums. My REAL name is Declan & I live in Dublin, Ireland. Fortunately I can watch Top Gear as I have BBC2 but can't watch Fifth Gear as I don't have Channel 5. This site is my ONLY source for these episodes & I thank you all for that.

I work in the IT business & like cars & bikes among other things. I'm a biker & also a C&G fully qualified motorcycle mechanic. I work in IT because I couldn't get a job here doing what I love...motorbikes. Go figure....??

I'm no stranger to controversy & have been 'given out to' by Mods on other sites before for my views on certain subjects & my justification for them. However cars aren't controversial are they? images/smilies/mrgreen.gif . I'll let you guys & gals be the judge of that.

Anyway I'm here now.

Thank you very much images/smilies/smile.gif
