Thought it was quite clever and you might not have seen it!

Alfa Romeo 159

I know Irfan - the fact the numberplate couldn't be put on centrally rules this car out automatically.

Ok, try again

I just looked at your past topics to get up to speed. Total nightmare mate. Guess there is nothing to say that hasn't been said. I know you'll be gutted about the skyline but as you said at least nobody was hurt. Are you driving the Lexus just now?

I'll keep looking for you - are you bothered about travelling to buy the car or would you rather keep it in central Scotland?

I got a reminder card through a while back so have booked in to see you Thursday too.

...and what about mercs?

Haha - you need to get you some Noseybook, I mean Facebook mate.

I still lurk the forum frequently, you know me though. I'm quiet.

What's up with your current daily?

Cheers Octet - I'll hold off on this one.

Have to say - loving the 6 though. Glad i didn't get the plus after hearing the bending rumours circulating this morning. :-o

For something that is a bit of an all rounder, I would go for a telecaster. Played a modern player and a mexican telecaster recently and I would go for the mexican all day long - pick a nice on up for half the budget you have going - really go and try one!

Does it need to be electric. What about a nice taylor semi acoustic?

I thought I would still with Tokyo since the challenge was set. Took me all of 30 secs - you just need to think outside the box.

Very nice - like it a lot!

What odds did you get on that?

Well I have Suarez to score first and Uruguay to win 2-1, half way there.

Good shout! lol

I was down to compete in today's Jim Clark Reivers Rally so obviously on a personal level pretty gutted after investing lots of time, effort and money into preparing for this and it being cancelled. I was spectating on the Saturday since the car had to be down for scrutineering.

I appreciate that there has been some very sad news for friends and family of the victims and my heart goes out to them for their pain but I hope no blame is apportioned to the drivers or the organisers. I certainly hope they do not restrict or ban the event as it is the best UK tarmac and only closed road rally. At the end of the day spectators should know that it is a dangerous sport to watch and that if they choose to they should be very careful about where they choose to spectate from.

This spelling and grammar on this thread is killing me inside a little.

Cookie clicker thanks to Husky

Awww dude - did you even wash that before claying lol

I had this on my facebook earlier in the week. Pretty mental driving from both the porsche and the R1. It`s pitched as "from the 90`s" but the R1 is the same one as I have (1999) and the Porsches number plate is W777MJT so must be at least 2000. Wonder if the police can do them now after all this time?

The plates are still registered to the porsche so i guess it shouldn't be that hard to track down the original owner (unless it was stolen). I think if the offence is over something like six years they can't prosecute though (I might of made that up).

Just came across this video on Facebook - absolutely mental! I'll let you comment as appropriate.....and hopefully it's not a repost.

Some people worry to much about trying to attract compliments or admiration. Don't get me wrong, it's nice if it comes your way but don't let attention whoring detract from the intrinsic pleasure you should be getting from a car like the zed.

It's about the car rather than badge for me. If I ever get round to buying my next 'weekend' car, I'll keep an open mind to all badge variants (except the French). lol

o2 sensor?

This would be a good in car gadget if actually works!

Surely this can't be (a) for real ( drivable if it is.

I tip my hat to you good sir - this is how shedding should be done!

I hang my head in shame!

Like this - hope it stays that way for you mate!
