Fuck all to do with AD, in fact i seem to remember munky going off his tits at the stickers that were dotted about the place

What shindig?

Coming from Autolusso, i can believe it

There's a bumper attached to all those cracks on the front!

There are stickers?

If my Gtv wasn't overdue a belt change i would make an effort but i don't fancy being stranded dahn sarf with a bust V6

Fuel rails may be pressurised too. Be prepared for a gob full of go juice

Bedford is an awesome track mate, go there. Silverstone will be mega expensive, mainly because its Silverstone

Cool vid I actually want one now

I seem to be the only person that likes them

No i know that. I failed to mention the 3 track days i did

I got through pads in 9k, discs in 16k and tyres in 4k one year As for overusing the brakes where a gearbox will do, new brakes are cheaper than a new gearbox

Its as square on the inside as it is on the outside, and the 'wood' on the dash is very garish

850R? I'd have one of those too, if they weren't so damn hideous inside

And my Gtv has the Cup kit but it's not a Cup I won't have a bad word said about Volvo, they are cracking cars. I miss driving them. The C30 is a favourite of mine and the new S/V60 is sublime to drive and oddly, for a Volvo, is a very good looking car! I once had to pick up a 2005 S60R, not knowing an awful lot about the car. I set off back to the dealership, sunk into the super comfy seats, headed off to the motorway, familiarised myself with the drive. All is going well, it's a lovely car to drive. Head on to the motorway, put my foot down in 3rd and within 3 seconds i was way over the limit. My god those things can shift! It's a pity they are so expensive to maintain

The top one (i'm not very up on my BMW E numbers) is a handsome thing. If i had the need for a big saloon, an older 740i/750i would be pretty high on my list. As would the previous generation S class and, bizarrely, the Volvo S60R

I think, i could be wrong, although it is unlikely, that the W12 Phaeton could 'only' manage 186mph as although it has the same engine as the 200mph Bentley Continental GT, it made do without any turbos. A fine beast, there is a hint of needing to be a monumental car bore to know what it is though. The casual, untrained eye will just think it is a Passat and will therefore hate you, and think you are a ####

Nonsense lad, get the V10 TDi!

Moggy, whilst watching an episode of 5th Gear the other night, you popped into my head. The subject being second hand bargains, one of which i think you may or may not be interested in, taking into account your recent purchase. It would have been two but you have previous with the 7 series. How would a VW Phaeton appeal to you? Almost £50k worth of 3.0 V6 TDi super saloon for just under £4k. I know it's not the grand you originally planned but you know, work a bit harder and all that Joking aside, even i'd be tempted by that sort of VFM

Nice colour. Get rid of the ginger lenses. Nothing compared to the red M5 i was tempted by though

A Punto TA? Somebody actually bought one?

It almost seems a shame to fit that manifold! Good work, i'll read through more thoroughly later on as i'm after fitting the 20vt into my 145. Will see if i can pick up any hints/tips from here

What's interesting about it exactly? Welcome, Matt I'm interested to read your progress on the 147, might be after some guidance as i'm doing the same conversion on my 145. Eventually

Didnt say i wanted them doing first! Fucking pipe down mouth

Yep, do it cheap and decent enough and i'll send mine over
