Cyder Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I was driving through a village recently and two young boys shouted 'awesome car' at me. Also me in the grey 'zed and my mate in his ginger zed stopped at McDonald's drive through one in front of the other. Two girls walked past and said to each other 'how weird, two cars the same but different colours'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peteyb Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 My mr2 was a stop gap, firstly to see if i could live with rear wheel drive on a daily basis, 140bhp with no traction control, and under a ton is fun it has to be said, mid engines are very forgiving tho, never spun out so learnt alot from that, and secondly to practice modifying, learning to fit bodykits, fibreglassing, filling, spraying, wrapping, always planned on getting the zed, but wanted something cheap to play with, ended up with a stunning little head turner of a car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Had an old American guy say "nice Ferrari" when I was outside polishing my red VX220 once Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 mid engines are very forgiving tho Erm... It's the second least forgiving layout! Great cars though, mine's a hoot to drive but then it does have a smidge more power and a bit less weight than a stock one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never understood that, my mate had a woman in a 2015 bentley gt white staring at him in his e92 satin black M3, that was basis for a long discussion at how people are never satisfied lol, tbh most of those people are either fans of the car or know that its got a different style from those other jap cars. had a few looks on the way back from Essex, had a few girls waving, and some people staring as in what are you doing down here lol or that exhaust is loud isnt it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ukeraa Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Worker at McDonald's drive thru asked me to rev it, then asked if it had a turbo, then told me he got 120 out of a Clio... When I got to the next window to collect my foot the lads there were like "Rev it again!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
