Maybe its just you they object to Nikos

I have posted links to here for stuff "over there" and not had them deleted

I assume that this is only in England - why would the rest of us (scots, welsh, irish) want it as a public holiday?

Northern ireland - yes and yes

Rep of Ireland - no and no

HELL of a lot more punch on the 350Z mate

New Impreza has lost some of the charm IMHO - it just seemed nasty to me!

Z looks schweet compared to anything alse for the money - 911's attract less attention here than the 350Z and they are more common too

(new carrera costs about €140000 here, 350Z costs about €55000 )

Not in the slightest mate - I bought one because I thought they were the best of gear - no cheap induction kits for MY baby

What about english jokes?

A englishman, irishman and scotsman were all in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled crate of booze. All of a sudden the Saudi police rushed in and arrested them. The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offence in Saudi Arabia, so for the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze, they were sentenced to death!

However, after many months and with the help of very good lawyers, they were able to successfully appeal their sentence down to life imprisonment. By a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi national holiday the day their trial finished, and the extremely benevolent Sheikh decided they could be released after receiving just 20 lashes each of the whip. As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh suddenly said: "It's my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping."

The scotsman was first in line (he had drunk the least), so he thought about this for a while and then said: "Please tie a pillow to my back." This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. ......had to be carried away bleeding and crying with pain when the punishment was done. The englishman was next up and after watching the scene, said:" Please fix two pillows on my back, " But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again.

The irishman was the last one up (he had finished off the crate), but before he could say anything, the Sheikh turned to him and said: "You are from a most beautiful part of the world, your country has some of the best bars and scenery in Europe, your humour is known throughout the world. For this, you may have two wishes!"

"Cheers mate, your Most Royal and Merciful Highness", The irishman replies. "In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes."

"Not only are you an honourable, handsome and powerful man, you are also very brave." The Sheik says with an admiring look on his face. "If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish? What is it to be?" the Sheikh asks.

"Please tie that english b****** to my back."

All the money on the Z has gone on drivetrain and chassis - interior is very plasticky and cheap - especially compared to the TT, but the Z is a real drivers car, whereas the TT is for hairdressers - sorry, but drive them back to back and you'll see what i mean.

Impreza is even worse on the inside and its a bit chavtastic - IMHO it doesnt fit in your short list of cars.

Z4 - you'll get an even more painful backside at the dealers with that

That leaves the S2000 - great drivers car, but can be very tiresome on longer journeys and is starting to look very dated, inside and out.

Zed will beat them all for performance, depending on what model of Impreza you are going for.

Buy an import, fit a twin turbo and have 911 humbling performance for about £27k

This is all only my opinion btw.

you want the nismo mate - best of gear:)

And from Cork

Definately looks like a nice job too

Hardly in the same league - J-lo doesnt really have a big ass - but that frump that you posted certainly does

big al 757,

 

tanks are a big target if you had a real conventional war. everyone is trying to get us from anti tank infantry to helis to other tanks and jets.

 

the reason is we are a very big, very angry target and the amount of damage caused in a few minutes, (like i did in Iraq the 1st time around - hee hee) can be devastating.

 

eddmac, i have to look at photos like that for work to practice recognising them so i'll leave the names of thos for others to figure out. needless to say the 2nd one is quite familiar.

- I'm glad you know that one - could be a quite awkward moment if you didnt

You got the third one then? I'm impressed

it's the ASS

yep, thats overweight too

Tanks for the memories

Small tank quiz - what are these?

Hint: - They are all current Main Battle Tanks

Can't see what the fuss is all about - she's definately no looker and is a bit overweight - not too much mind - but if shes supposed to be a model you would expect more

Hi nibby newbie

Very nice Val - get more piccies up

They just don't make them like that anymore

The buttons on the right hand side of the pod just affect the background lighting - they don't affect any of the individual warning type lights ( ie full beam, ESP off, etc )

 

Gus

v-nice

You can still have fast cars though! (as long as they have 4 seats )

Buttons on right hand side of Dash pod + brightens lights - dims them
