Any car nuts out there?
#1
We all appreciate a good bike, but how many of us are into cars?
I was stuck in my local car dealership today wasting time whilst they frigged me around. Whilst in there, to fill in the time I read the latest "Wheels Magazine" The November issue is great! 50 sexiest cars of all time, plus other 'special' articles, heaps on muscle cars of the past. and a great Charger on he cover. Think the mag must have been a special issue, as had heaps inside. If you get the chance, and you're into cars, have a read. - I'm off to get my own, as it's a great reference read.

"Jaguar - for people who want young women they don't know to give them hand jobs" Lol2Lol2 - (can't remeber the movie title - Cuckue's nest type)

They reckon the only happy Jag owner is the one that owns two. . . so they've got something to drive whilst the other is being fixed Lol3

. . . I should know, I've owned two Pi_freak

Had a beautiful Series 1 - loved it 4.2 twin SU's - handled like ti twas on rails. (often just stopped for no reason at all??) - was too young to inexperienced to work it all out.

Later bought a Series 2 Daimler double 6 - white with full fibreglass body kit, powered by a chev 400. - absolute "Piece of shit" - was reliable, but the chev motor completely stuffed up the balance and handling of the car. - sold it very diss-illusioned.

Should has persistered with the series 1.

I drive an "indestructable toyota" now - all be it a TRD.

One day I will own a red '66 (ish) mustang

You sold an XY GS?? Damn, what an awesome car, shame to part company with it.

I've been into cars as long as bikes (been around them all my life actually) but have been without a project for a few years now, had to sell the last one because of the ball & chain, which now that I have found the bolt-cutters awhile ago (glad she doesn't get on here or that comment would get me into trouble) I am about to start a new project, something completely off the grid.
Won't give too much away but 1200kgs, 330hp with a 5 speed, OOHHH YEAH!!! Yes

Had an XA Fairmont with everything bar A/C and powersteering. Watching my babe (5'2" and light as) trying to do a reverse park in Bunda street forced me to sell it. Loved that car - 4-8 mpg made her a thirsty wench though.
Good weather, good woman, good road, good bike, good-bye!!

Suzuki Liana???? I'm pretty sure the topic of this thread is "any car nuts out there" not "what car would you be nuts to own" Lol2Coolsmiley (I can't talk....we have a bog-standard Subaru Liberty 2.5 - wouldn't pull skin off a rice-pudding)
