  1. Was this the pop that your talking about? "I rented a yellow convertible in Vegas last month. It wasnt the 5.0 and i've got to say it was quite dull to drive, sadly. The Mustang has been at the top of my list since forever, but i was a little disappointed with this. On a positive note, the infotainment was great, as well as the OBC. My favourite touch was the mustang logo projected onto the floor when you unlock it. I still need to drive the V8 before i can give a propper verdict, but they Jury's out for now" Maybe the jury shouldn't have pre-deliberated before the verdict I thought that was quite positive, I would be disappointed in a V6 (?) auto (?) droptop Mustang rental as well You've been carrying that for a while buddy chill 'dude'
  2. Glad it makes sense to you I'll try and find the same stuff to smoke I'm relaxed 'dude' , Netflix and chillin'
  3. So, £38k, and you've got a whole £2k left for the running costs? Now if a R35 was £2k and you had £38k for running costs your post might make sense. But, oh fk it, your twisting my melons with all your gobbledygook. Why not try drinking instead? Enjoy your 'big V6',
  4. I know some counselling agencies that may help the OP. The last two examples confirms what we've all been thinking, quite mad!
  5. I've seen you cutting about Motherwell, drooling at the site of my Mustang Seriously though, can you explain your thread? It's completely baffling!?! Are you after a second hand car for £40k? I'll sell you my Mazda 3 SportNav 2.2D with twin turbo (it really is TT, check it on Mazda's site), for a bargain £39,990
  6. I think you're hallucinating, stay away from the medicine cabinet
  7. Fantastic opening scene Obviously Ford had a bit of sponsorship in there
  8. Both my 370's went through my ownership with synchro on, why wouldn't you And, as ^^ he says, with an aftermarket exhaust, very cool
  9. Given the two poor examples you've provided , and as an owner of a Mustang, I'm in the interested camp as well, but I'll bow to your superior knowledge on Mustangs
  10. Well documented, Mk1 Nismo is a totally different drive from the GT (I've had both). There are those who thought that it wasn't the fire breathing monster it should've been, however, it's a complete departure from the GT set up. Couple of nice touches, internal and, being biased, externally the best looking 370 Zed thus far. The drive is different due to the combination of the map and the suspension, wider wheelbase, stiffer suspension, different braces, look underneath a Nismo and it becomes apparent. There are those that will say that for a few hundred Quid, you could modify a stock GT to drive as well, they really are kidding themselves, trust me, I tried it with my GT. Throttle response is noticeably better. Whether it's worth £5k more? Well, it'll not depreciate as much, it'll stick out from the crowd, it'll be newer (may have factory warranty, 2012 won't). Pick the right colour and, well, it might make your mind up.
  11. Never noticed that, is it recent, pretty sure it wasn't the case a few months ago , their price is now £27 a corner dearer, I'll reassess come the new year. But £108 saving is not to be sniffed at. To the OP, no idea sorry, The Ekona will no doubt sort you out there
  12. I was referring to the days of Advocaat and O'Neill when the old firm gave some big teams a scare in the champions league I was referring to recent times not the good old days that I didn't witness I'm not grey like you remember I might be grey, but that is backed up with grey matter, not like you remember WTF did Advocaat or O'Neil win in Europe? Not even a semi final amongst them, or quarter final, O'Neil got a MBE/OBE for winning @uck all Show me the evidence of their success in Europe in 'recent' times
  13. My point was that, all things equal, Scotland had much more success in Europe, than back when, or even now we have a glut of substandard players. Dennis Law, went to Torino in the sixties! So Real, weren't the only ones 'importing' superstars, for £200 a week
  14. Celtic won the European cup with 11 players who were all born and bred in a 20 mile radius of Parkhead, Rangers won the old Cup Winners cup with 11 Scottish players on the field, Aberdeen won the same competition with 11 Scottish players, Dundee Utd got to the final of the old UEAFA cup with one Fin and 10 Scots. There is no way that Scottish teams in Europe were better with foreign players, sorry mate, being old has its advantages
  15. In-depth BBC establishment, elitist thingy
  16. Happened way before that, the teachers strikes of the late '70s early '80s and the refusal of them to run school football in the evenings and at weekends (unpaid mind), saw a sharp decline in youngsters playing the sport. Don't get me started about the PlayStation generation:lol: You are partly right about the mercenary effect, it's happening in England now, global brand though, the premiership, Scottish football will never be that!
  17. The players you mention came from a very different economic and social era, it was the pit or success at football. This was a time when there was ZERO investment in sport, far less football, so investment is not the cause. These players were from a generation that, if you got a Mitre size 5 for Crimbo, you were everyone's best mate , we would kick that ball about until it disintegrated, then it was back to playing football with a worn out tennis ball and everyone was out in the street playing football, not on social media or playstations, the days when a Wimpey was an exotic, expensive take away
  18. Yeah the GM thing is a put down really. The dumbing down through popular media is happening. On the fence (I'm not known to be ), not much has been done really in 20 years, the last 5-8 years virtually nothing. Control of illegal immigrants is important, so is the control of refugees, close to their homelands, so that by the end of any conflict, it's easier to return. The fact remains, the new president is a risk to all we know, misogynistic, racist, sexual criminality, bigoted, religiously intolerant but the most dangerous thing is his inexperience. If I put anyone like that in front of you, for you to decide to vote for them, you wouldn't, that's because you're not dimwitted and believe improbable claims re immigrants, muslims or Mexicans. The world will be more interesting now, that's for sure. I'm a firm believer in dismantling the privileged political elite, same as big Don, but I don't think I'm dimwitted enough to believe that there's anyone remotely able to do this, far less a privileged racist egomaniac.
  19. Costco is another place for good deals, Asda though, take a bit of beating unless you have a contact in the trade. Chap at work's brother can get me MPSS in the sizes I want for £5 a corner cheaper, that's inclusive of fitting and balancing though, which the Asda price wasn't.
  20. Got some new take offs myself coming over, getting a few things in over the winter for a further round of mods. The GT 350 throttle body and Lund tune are appearing to work well and are giving good gains, up to 500 HP for not a lot of cash layout.
  21. Car modding, a supreme form of contraception, I laughed at this post
  22. There's 651 miles of FENCE along the US/Mexico border measuring over 2000 miles. Legitimate, travelling Muslims are not illegal immigrants, If the electorate believed that these stated goals were going to happen, and voted accordingly, they are dimwitted. Oh I forgot to mention, he also promised to stop importing anything from China and open up all the derelict steel mills, depending on which state he was in (drunk by the sound of it ), dimwitted is probably a compliment if they believed that as well. Years and years of eating GM foods and being belt fed reality shows, dumbs down any electorate, it's been happening here for a few years (minus the GM I suppose), get the people interested in cake baking competitions or Z listers dancing the tango and they won't give a toss what the politicians are getting up to. My opinion, which happens to be right
  23. Hmm, not sure with the stripes under the wing, has he got plans to change that? There's some great CF parts out there, mostly guaranteed to fit straight away, but they're expensive.
