  1. Can't see it coming to the UK ... especially if the GM / Chrysler merger goes ahead and then they'll kill the car anyway because of the Camaro ! Also have you seen the quality of the interior of American cars !
  2. I don't know the 'yoof' of today ! Can't be a bad life being LH tho
  3. Nige ... you need to save some pennies ... I had a brief look at a MiTo this morning while the garage was once again looking at my Spider ... UK dealers now have left hookers in the showrooms to tempt buyers ahead of january ... the essex dealer has a black one that has red flecks in the paint ... very cool ... and the car looks a lot better in the flesh

    1. Yeah Nige will be in his element ! Challenger, Cadillac CTS thingy (or whatever it is) and a Vette
    2. I think Hamster was trying to out do James' do Yeah what sort of person would have a personallised plate on their car <waits for some people from the forum to own up to it as I know who you are>
    3. OK so you have a piccie of a crash test dummy and you're profile says "part time NCAP dummy" ... so if you don't mind me asking what do you do as a job?

      1. Baldy - Don't become a 'puffy' jacket wearing oik who drives a Scooby ... stick to your 4 rings. As to me ... well the Celica went back in June this year and I now have the car in my sig ... Alfa Romeo Spider Limited Edition
      2. Wow what a race ... I haven't been drawn in so much in quite a few years. What an end to the race, I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat ... and then when the finish happened I did actually shed a little tear ?!?!? (of joy, for Lewis winning the championship) Firstly congrats to Massa on such a clean and perfect race, he couldn't have done any more, also he's come on leaps and bounds this season and I for one am surprised that he's ouut performed Kimi time and again. I think Ferrari lost him the championship though through reliability and a few pit-stop cock-ups. But well done Lewis and McLaren ... Lewis was damn lucky that Glock had no traction in those last few bends ... but then Toyota should have pitted him for new tyres so he wouldn't have been there in the first place anyway. As to the celebrations I thought it was great that a 'superstar' like Nicole was bundling through the crowd just like anyone to see Lewis ... I think he might have got some last night ... well unless he had too much champagne ... then again McLaren may still be drinking champagne while I am writing this! But it would have been nice if the crowd didn't Boo Lewis as much ... OK it was Massa's home GP and Massa was up for the title, but the crowds reaction made the Alonso fans at the Spanish GP look small time. But perhaps that's the latin spirit for you ... I just don't remember it in Senna's day. And finally ... well almost ... Goodbye DC ... a true gentleman, joker and sportsman who'll be missed ... although I think he might be back at RB or STR as an advisor. So ... Roll on next season with COMPLETELY new cars ... a whole new ball game !
      3. Great Episode ... TG back on it's usual form The Trucks were great ... Oh the building they had to do the powerslides in front of is where they filmed the last series of Fifth Gear, it's the main function suite area of Millbrook ... and the Alpine course is great fun ... trust me ! Thought they were nuts though driving through a reinforced brick wall!
      4. Well not too sure where to post this but here will do ... Got back from a mates house last night and turned on the 360 for a quick stint and for some spurious reason I noticed my gamerscore ... I never really pay much attention to it ... So on All Hallows Weekend my gamerscores is ... Spooky ?
      5. I wondered what that was that you'd been playing recently ... so it looks like modern day Van Helsing with a character name stolen from Blade Runner ! Looks good but not my cup of tes
      6. found my passwords ... so here's my starting Scirocco and my Camaro with it's blower, side exhausts and tubbed out rear ... infront of Diablos' favourite shop (which is just around the corner from the starting garage!)
      7. I thought they fixed that bug ... doesn't happen to me anymore ... I thought it was to do with the Hardcore mode DLC ... but then Hardcore mode only occassionally appears on my startup screen now!
      8. OK I'll have a play tonight when I get home while the oven is cooking some food see if I can remember my R club and messenger passwords ! As to the cars ... well I quite like the SS ... but I do want a Firebird ... and it'll have a real obvious plate on it !
      9. OK silly question but how do you take in-game pics and upload them? I haven't play MC:LA much as I've been enjoying Fable 2 too much and at first I hated the handling and camera on MC:LA ... then found a camera setting I could work with So far I've only got 2 cars ... my starting Scirocco and the Camaro SS you can win ... I've modded the look of the Camaro quite a bit so she looks like a real beast now so I'll take some pics and post if someone can point me in the right direction.
      10. I got an E74 last night when I switched it on ... turned it off ... unplugged all the cables ... plugged them back in solidly ... turned back on and no problems
      11. OK ... my thoughts is it would be terrible as it would just make it like Formula Ford or something like that !!!!! Why limit the technology? But ... IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ! They can't afford to lose Ferrari ... some people think I hate Ferrari ... I don't ... I love Ferraris (road and F1) ... I just hated some German bloke (he got away with too much) and currently I support some hot-headed young kid from England But if you took Ferrari out of F1 it would kill the sport ... so it ain't gonna 'appen
      12. yeah when they're personal tractor units (or truck cabs depending upon how you want to call them) they do sometimes get covered in lights in the UK as to the trailer ... looks like it could be Millbrook proving ground where they have the trucks ... but then could also be MIRA or perhaps even some MOD place roll on Sunday night
      13. Accoring to my TVDrive its Parky in the resonably priced car and they have to buy second hand Trucks ! ... I presume the UK meaning of trucks rather than the American one.
      14. OK ... Liked the video ... OK the flames looked cool but what a waste of fuel ! Flames on over-run ... Sub Zero Flames all the time ... Seriously Un-Cool And why do people have to modify Ferraris ... what's wrong with them as Enzo/Luca intended? OK Ferrari styling isn't great these days, it went downhill after the Daytona ... and yes I would still like a 328 or an F40 but they're not beautiful Ferraris ... and a Ferrari V8 is one of the best engine sounds ... well apart from a Ferrari V12, Shelby 427 Cobra V8 and a Lambo V10 or V12 ... the Lambo V12 being the best engine EVER invented ... Period
      15. Yeah I was expecting someone to comment on the rubbish looking wheels ... LOL ! It's pretty obvious from the shots that it's a test mule especially running on those wheels (they're for data collection, they'll contain accelerometers to they can then use computer simulation for designing the suspension and body attachment points) But also I've already heard a few rumours about this vehicle :-) I don't think they'll do a RWD only vehicle though ... VAG said long ago that Lambos will be AWD
      16. I had some wierd graphically glitch like that a while back ... turned out my AV cable had worked loose ... turned the machine off ... let it cool down ... dusted everywhere ... plugged cable back in solidly and no problems since
      17. Firstly No I don't mean the Computer game ... hold on is **** still a banned word on this forum? ... well we'll soon find out when I post this well here's a link to it http://www.nextautos.com/spy-shot-lamborghini%E2%80%99s-enzo-rival-ultra-car-spotted Ahh yeap you can't say H A L O
      18. Happy Birthday Diablo ... enjoy a wee dram or two !
