I have to confess now I know how much obsession to detail has gone into this car I can't wait to see the Top Gear film where Harris gives one a spanking round a circuit.

Is this a deleted scene from Terminator 2? The bit where Robert Patrick morphs into an SUV and tries to scare John Connor to death on the school run?

Does all this mean that this steaming pile of rusty BL poo is finally going to be turned into something approaching a safe, reliable and not rusty classic? Albeit one in one of my least favourite colours that was a shonky effort even when it left the factory?

Who are you calling a window licker? :mad:

:wall:

I must admit that having watched the videos in full I am a little more intrigued. I think I'd need to play with a configurator to find the right colour.

There is no doubt that it will be utterly brilliant, but its looks don't give me the fizz.

Maintenance helps. Plus pointing the front wheels in the correct direction, towards the kerb when pointing downhill, away from the kerb for uphill, should be standard practice for any half decent driver. Or if you have a second car that only sees occasional use, as with the MX5 which saw...

So jealous. I've never driven a classis Mini although it's on my bucket list. You may be getting a message from me once I know what dates in September I will be visiting Mum. ;)

I know you tend not to look at what's on the mantlepiece when stoking the fire so that's probably a good thing. If I had to drop the coin on what this thing will cost I'd never look over my shoulder while unlocking my front door. Minger? No. Marriage material? Maybe a One Night Stand but she'd...

Congratulations. You've passed the next stage or your man training - using a jetwash to write a curse word in the grime on your path. You would have got extra bonus points if you'd written "Fuck Da Po-Po!" in letters big enough to be seen from your local police chopper and then called 911 to...

That's less General Lee and more Private Parts.

I very rarely use the handbrake unless I'm parked on a slope. When I park I leave the car in the next gear I am likely to use to get it out of the space. Living so close to the coast here everything is pretty flat, and if I park on a slope I make sure the wheels are pointing such that the car...

The 747 has a hump on its back, even non plane buffs know what those are.

While Matt2000 was here over the weekend we indulged HWF3.0 by watching one of her favourite movies from her teenage years, namely The Lost Boys. And boy do I wish I hadn't. I'm all for a cheesy 80s movie but this one was so bad I'd rather watch Howard the Duck on a 24 hour loop.
