  1. Talking about wanting to stand out from the crowd! God its very.. GREEN! All you need is some of those Kawasaki leathers to wear inside! Hee hee
  2. I cant beleive it! I have the cheapest here!!! 35 y/o No claims / convictions or anything else iffy.. £255 with esure, thats fully comp too. (You have to put up with an Indian call centre, but I can live with that!)
  3. Theres a white roadster on the Autotrader site at the moment.. I think it looks great! its jsut a shame they are all imports! Its all down to taste I know, but now the cops dont use white cars (or hardly ever) they are really unusual to see on the roads, its another way to stand just that bit more out from the crowd!
  4. Carefull....... Your all feeding my car buying habbit!! I really should stop now! I know my last two Alfa broke down every two minutes, but they are such good looking things! No No No, it ok I can handle it!!
  5. Ive read that as well.. But all the national car mags have only had the little engined one.. Will be interestiing to see what they say about the 3.2 with the 4 wheel drive, i should think it sounds as good as the 350 if not very different! I dont dare ask for a test drive just yet! (Mind you I already have the brochre!)
  6. Well... Im already getting tempted at a 3.2 Alfa Romeo Spider... Its sooo pretty!!! (ok enough of that)
  7. I couldnt possibly encourage it.. But take your front number plate off and its a £30- fine IF you are unlucky enough to ever see a real police officer (who might have some discression) OR £60 and 3 points (or worse) if you get speeding! Speeding isnt dangerous! Its only inappropriate speed that is! Something v different!
  8. Blimey.. I got eleven right!! Lots of head scratching involved though!!
  9. I have to agree, having the roadster is a bit of a personal taste thing... Having said that, I have had the roof down on mine almost every day for the past too weeks now! The wind noise and buffetting inside is quite a bit less than the Boxster I had before. Looks smashing with the roof down too, Im not sure the hood is quite as good materials as some competiters, and I have personally had a couple of probs with the electric opperation.. Having said that, its still a good looking beast. Oh, helps hear that engine note all that much more too! If you already have an erring to a ragtop, you will love it! Beware though, it does attract huge attention, especially if its a bright colour!
  10. Good camera too! I still plug away with an old F1... Not managed to drag myself into the digital age yet!
  11. Your a fair whiz with a camera, some really nice lighting and framing of some of those.. Was it all luck or a bit of skill then?
  12. well.. If its me.. Its normally cos the other car has whizzed past before Ive clicked, I end up waving at thin air!
  13. How many miles is everyone getting from a full tank then? I'm getting round about 380 on a good week.
  14. Blimey, what wash stuff do you use to make it all so foamy?? Not sure Ive seen a car as frothy as that!!
  15. To be honest, I think red on a sports car looks smashing.. its a very forgiving colour to keen clean and look after as well.. But, what everyone else says is right, if your going to keep it a few years go for what you like!,.. After a few years a different colour wont make any huge difference in value on a part exchange!
  16. Think they are a smashing idea.. If nothing else, it stops all the car age snobbery that people have.. My private plate doesnt actually mean anything to me, but it does keep everyone who knows me guessing to what it stands for!
  17. I agree with this.. They must have seen your car was well looked after, and on top of this you passed the attitude test.. I guess this is why its better to have people in police cars rather than bloody cameras and those donuts in the camera vans!!!!
  18. Ok.. I know I can think of better........ BUT the Nissan brand!!!! Its a great car spoilt by that!
  19. I hate to say it.. BUT the road pricing plan would be a fairer system, if only they would scrap all other motoring taxes! Ouch i can feel people slapping me as i say it!

    aerial

    Not sure why they couldnt put the aeriel into the windscreen?? That would be better still!
  21. The whole speeding legislation is a joke! Lets face it, there are plenty of times when it is more than safe to drive in excess of 100MPH on an open piece of motorway in good conditions.. BUT if your doing 40MPH past a school at 9am monday morning, you really should have your legs chopped off! I strugge when I see all the camera vans on major routes, why cant we just police bad drivers! Too tricky? Or perhaps you might have to employ more people do deal with it! Anyway, if speeding on its own was dangerous, the police wouldnt be able to speed at all. I think its fair to say that they are trained to break teh speed limits, so it cant be all that bad!! The whole issue of speeding makes my bloody boil! Im going to stop typing before i bubble over!!!
  22. Theres some part timers on here!!! Way too many hours here!!! Still sleeeep is over rated!
  23. Jizer?? Never heard of it? Can you get it from Halfords then?
  24. Oh to get a digital camera working! Tried cleaning under the bonnet today... Anyone know any good de greasers? Its not terrible under there, just a few spots I would like to get shiney!
