Styling exercise, nothing more. And a poor one at that, those quad tips are pure chav.

I'll be driving my cars as normal. They've all got roofs, heaters, and weren't made in the 1930s, so I think I'll survive.

One of the better drivers I've ever been out in a car with, that's for sure. Your level of car control and feel is especially impressive.

This is very true!

That, I will never get. I can understand buying the uglier car because it drives better, but the uglier car that drives worse because it's rare? Nope, don't get it.

Best thing to do with locking wheel nuts is throw them in the bin.

Agreed. As much as I enjoyed tracking the 911, I'd have had much more fun in my MX5 by a country mile. 100% slower, 100% more engaging.

Tbh, it looks like they're chasing people who want to be different for the sake of being different, because you'd have to be crazy to want one of those over the German equivalent.

Erm, how? The Golf R has 9bhp less but 12ft/lb more torque than the 350, weighs at least 100kg less, has 4WD and a DSG 'box. It's limited to 155mph so I've no doubt will do that in stock form, so on no planet with even a vaguely competent driver should the 350 see which way the Golf R went in a straight line. Hell, I'd thoroughly expect the Golf to p*ss all over the 350 round the corners too. I'd still rather own the 350 as I'd find it more fun, but I really struggle to believe that the 350 was quicker than the R

You don't have to prove your innocence, they have to prove your guilt. Seriously, don't worry about it. Get some regular cheapy plates from Demon Plates or Fancy Plates online, and fit those. Save yourself the money, it's so unlikely anything will ever come of this that I wouldn't worry about it. Go and put a bright sticker in the front and rear screens, that way if you do get pinged you can easily show it wasn't you.

Like living in Brixton and calling your cat in at night, when it's name is Blackie. Whilst we didn't live in Brixton, my Mum's dog when I was growing up was genuinely called Blackie, soppy old Lab cross. I did used to get some odd looks when calling her to come back on the lead when I was younger, although I didn't realise why until later in life...

Nah, I wouldn't. No need unless you want to claim, which would be pointless unless you have a £0 excess.

Here's mine, in case you're worried: R20 DNM RJ02 GNY EF63 GVY

Probably sat on a sheddy 3-series ready for a job tonight now. Also, you need to let us have the whole plate, nothing bad will come of posting it on here, promise.

Not with that front. Hideous. And not for that money, no way.

HR is worth every penny as a premium.

If they did a good job on your Volks, I'm sure they'll be fine on the Rotas. Cheers bud, I'll give them a shout

You can insure a car regardless of owner and by as many people on as many policies as possible. You can only claim on one policy though, and some insurers get a bit funny insuring you on cars you don't own. Many are absolutely fine with it though.

So massive thanks to Tarmac, new wheel arrived yesterday as promised and was fitted today along with the new tyres, she's back to being immaculate again! And if anyone knows a good wheel refurb place in Halstead, I'm all ears... Car is also booked in Friday for the roof wrap and to get the AC regassed, as it apparently is as dead as a dead thing right now.

Always a way round it. Either he insures himself on a separate policy, or he takes a policy out with the co-op (who I'm guessing you're with?). That said, why can't you just put him on your policy as a named driver?

Bumper enhancements

Personally, I wouldn't. You don't have anything else orange on the rear, so it'd look a bit odd. Red would work due to the rear lights, but again I probably wouldn't do that either.

I actually loved the old Ultrac Sessanta, but sadly you can't get them any more.

Match the fronts, or change them all to MPSS.

Mine was better
