  1. Yeah but we all know its still there ๐Ÿ˜‚
  2. I read it was a three wheeled Morgan not a kit car ๐Ÿคท
  3. GLWTS ๐Ÿ˜Ž My favourite colour combo with that Blue and the frost leather and on those wheels it looks the business!
  4. https://www.carscoops.com/2023/09/2024-nissan-z-nismo-cant-match-toyota-supra-in-epa-consumption-figures/ That's just as bad as my V8 ๐Ÿ˜‚ The specs say mine is 18mpg combined, but I am averaging 19.5 ... although I don't drive it likeI stole it everywhere, I don't hang about ๐Ÿ˜‚
  5. Christmas is coming, maybe you can be his secret Santa ...... ๐Ÿ˜‚
  6. So then given the choice in that same price bracket what would you have? the Bimmer would tempting, but I love my V8 so I would choose the Dark Horse
  7. $80K for the Nismo in Canada, that's going to put it firmly in Mustang Dark Horse territory that comes with more HP and a Manual option. https://www.carscoops.com/2023/09/2024-nissan-z-nismo-prices-leaked-starts-at-65k-in-the-us-ca79k-in-canada/
  8. Thatโ€™s in Alberta which is the next province over โ€ฆ we do t have states here โ€ฆlol Yes you can go from Ontario all the way across, hope you have deep pockets, itโ€™s not cheap, but itโ€™s supposed to be one of the greatest train journeys in the world.
  9. yep thatโ€™s a thing, itโ€™s called the Rocky Mountaineer. You can go all the way across Canada, it actually goes through the town I live in. Itโ€™s got fancy glass roofed carriages so you can see the viewโ€ฆ.. although prob not much to see in the middle of Canada as itโ€™s so flat. My folks went from Calgary to Vancouver on it.
  10. my other fun population fact is the state of California has a population (2023) of just over 39 million people (documented people that is), thatโ€™s nearly 1.2 million more that the entirety of Canada. California will fit 2.3 times in the province of BC and 25 times in to the whole of Canada if you dont like people donโ€™t move to California ๐Ÿ˜ญ I never really thought about how big Canada is until I moved here and I looked to see how long it will take to drive from the bottom to the top of BC. Itโ€™s nearly 24 hours which makes lands end to John o groats seem like a quick trip to the shops ๐Ÿ˜‚
  11. Nope, nothing, nadda. You should see some of the pieces of crap on the roads. however if it looks really bad you might get pulled for it. I would estimate that 50% of the vehicles on the road have huge cracks in the windscreen (including our truck) and no one bats an eyelid. 38 Million in Canada .... 67 Million in the UK, Canada is 41 times bigger than the UK ๐Ÿ˜‚
  12. Yes Vancouver area. Fun fact .... just BC is nearly 4x the size of the UK but only has 5 million people.Most of Canada's population live on the East coast. Taxes generally around 40% which I think is more than the UK. but you will find that the wages are higher than the UK for the same job. cost of living is prob a bit more also. for example a mobile phone will cost about $60+ a month. My mustang is $1900 to insure for the year, but there is no tax/MOT.
  13. We have Zero regrets about moving here, the family have thrived in the last 10 years. would 100% recommend!. .... as for the weather that depends where you go, east coast is cold and wet, the middle is freezing in the winter, the west coast is sunny and warm in the summer and not too cold in the winter. and by not too cold I mean we don't get -40C like some areas do. a few days at -10C/-15C but generally its fine. on the plus side you come over here and you can get yourself a new Z .... even a new Nismo Z ๐Ÿ˜‚
  14. that's a lot of money for a Mustang ....... and they say it will do a sub 7min Ring lap ......
  15. $300+ USD is a bit rich for me ๐Ÿ˜‚ looks and sounds good though ๐Ÿ˜Ž https://www.carscoops.com/2023/08/2025-ford-mustang-gtd-is-a-300000-supercar-with-800-hp-and-chasing-a-sub-7-minute-ring-time/
  16. I would love a set on my mustang, but no 19x11 and the offsets are all wrong โ˜น๏ธ
  17. Interesting video ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. Hello and welcome from Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ eh!
  19. You are partially correct..... I have seen 5 on the road now, 3 had 'N' badges (New driver) but its not fanboys, its fangirls since all were driven by females ๐Ÿ˜‚
  20. Nismo looks goodโ€ฆ. Still not trading the stang for one ๐Ÿ˜‚ https://www.carscoops.com/2023/07/2024-nissan-z-nismo-lands-with-420-hp-better-aero-and-stiffened-chassis/
  21. Good wood is a great show, although last time I went was in 2002. Funny storyโ€ฆ.. my sisters partner at the time was an MP in Chichester, they provide the personal security for the drivers, so my sister and I got access all areas. He was providing security for Murray Walker and his buddy Jenson Button so I got to meet them both. Murray was fantastic really nice man ๐Ÿ˜Ž. When all the drivers went for lunch we met in the drivers tent, I literally walked in to Barry Sheene by accident and spilt his pint โ€ฆ. He was very nice about it ๐Ÿ˜†. We all decided to go for a walk about while the drivers were troughing so my sister and I walked out the drivers tent in front of all the crowds flanked by security โ€ฆโ€ฆ you could hear people going โ€œwhoโ€™s that?โ€ One little kid ran up and asked for my autographโ€ฆ.. did not want to disappoint so scribbled something illegible ๐Ÿ˜‚ fond memories of that day, we had such a laugh!
  22. Step away from that Burger folks..... pick up a carrot and save the planet! https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-66238584
