  1. If it wasnt so tragic it would be hilarious in fairness.........you pulled up in a black cab and twatted a cyclist into your own parked car, she calls you a typical man, says her life is falling apart. You couldn't write it Obviously I feel your pain but it has otherwise made me chuckle on a miserable day. I can just imagine the resigned look of utter 'why me' on your face as she flew through the air!
  2. He's only had the car for a short time, we have no idea of the cars history. Just as good as buying from someone from off the forum. But rules is rules............and he complies with them. Besides which it 'looks' well looked after and is a pretty reasonable price. When you think of some of the shite you see on autotrader and fleabay its hardly poses a massive risk. I'll always hark back to the cautionary tale of 'Cal' who bought his zed of 'Dene8'...........Dene had about a billion posts.........Zed had about a gnats ejaculate worth of oil..........engine had about a 12 mile shelf life. Forum does not automatically = bullet proof.

    Fuel caps

    about as appealing as big foots dick
  4. Why don't you just buy cheap stock and mod yourself?
  5. Bit too specific really mate - chances of a car coming up in that exact spec with that exact mods is nigh on zero. As for the money - its that specific it'd just be a finger in the air. I was talking turkey before as well - autotrader would think it had 313 BHP on that import........which makes the 'assumption' that the seller figures it will now have 330 with just an intake even more likely.
  6. The year will be determined by autotrader because its an import - it'll be a 2003 imported in 2009. I don't think it looks too bad - BHP is dreaming and the price is about a grand or 2 thick but I don't reckon thats a bad car considering the mods and a new clutch in the mix. So, yes, it turns out that it was imported in 2009. The guy has read the mileage off his dash so it has done a lot less than the 77k he stated as it was converted to mph on import. As for the power, he has no evidence of the power but reckons it's between 315 and 330 as it's quicker off the mark than a friend's car, but the only mod is an induction kit and what sounds like a D1 throttle controller. The thing is, it's not clear why it would be the 300bhp engine in the first place so the power sounds a complete work of fiction (the woman that sold it to him told him it was 330bhp). And, finally on price, just a couple of hundred reduction, so not really playing ball. Ill tell you exactly why. Because autotrader thinks its a 2009car which would have a 300 bhp engine which means whatever mongtard sold it to him did the exact same thing and said 'well its 300 stock and the induction kit box says that it adds 15-30 bhp ergo I now have a 330 bhp car' Sadly reality said 'you have a 276 with a flat spot in the acceleration due to heat soak'!!!
  7. Good finish........be interested to see how it wears over time.
  8. Yep, I was thinking it was something to do with Ian being from up north (well, comparatively) rather than an exhaust note. Up North!!!!!!!!!! Give ovver he's from Middle (Earth) England. Not proper iron born like us true Northerners ;-) Hot Fuzz was also set in the South West you plank!
  9. Yaaaaaaarp isn't that what the big dullard bloke who plays Sandor Clegane in the Game of Thrones says in Hot Fuzz?!?!
  10. 19 bought my first 'proper' sports car - V6 Cougar.......felt like the dogs dangling wanger. 5 days later while creeping carefully out of the girlfriends drive I heard it bottom out on the little kerb that ran at the front of the house. Thought it'd be best to keep going as I was passed the point of no return.......realised it was actually scraping against her bothers car that was parked parallel to the house. Quarter panel trashed :-(
  11. The year will be determined by autotrader because its an import - it'll be a 2003 imported in 2009. I don't think it looks too bad - BHP is dreaming and the price is about a grand or 2 thick but I don't reckon thats a bad car considering the mods and a new clutch in the mix.
  12. For clarification 4 seats or 5 (as you weren't offered the option of 5). If its really 4 that narrows it considerably
  13. Christ help a man if he gets a woody for himself because his car attracts a girl over.
  14. Bit like an RX8 ........too much like hardwork for my personal liking
  15. Faceplant holds not clues......perhaps it is just a stock up on soapy stuff.
  16. ^ This stinks of an inadvertant attention seeking thread for a new motor monsiour Sandwich! ;-)
  17. Definitely illegal to pay a large debt with small denominations. There was that boolsheet viral about someone paying apple with a billion squid worth of quarters or some such crap...........load of tosh.
  18. Depends how much you paid for it. If its shed money and dollar in your arse pocket then people can go blow themselves. If not ...........then errrrm..........well I'm sure it's mother loved its looks.
  19. That milage is bugger all really. Nice motor
