  1. I knew somone would point out the Diablo GTR...and i think it's a premium as well! (the Diablo GTR in GT3 & 5 was white). Good to see it's more like what 4 was in some respects! :D
  2. Hello & welcome :D Your in good company here as were all fans of both cars & driving games! And good to have another Impreza fan. :D
  3. Can't get a landy, so made the next best thing, in traditional Landy colours as well :nods:
  4. Multiplayer Truck game? Mercy saints alive it looks like we got us a convoy! :D Surely i was't the only one to think that? :lol:
  5. I've seen that very Merc transporter(The classice with the SLR on the back), it's actually a ground up replica that was so good that Merc got involved in making in the end! Funny you post the Actros though, my works just gotten another fleet of them(36 no less), the BIG ones this time...the Merc badge on the grill's the same height as my head! These ones join the batch of full sized Actros 3's they got last year and fleet of 'small' New Actros's they got at the same time! Then theres all the DAF CF's they got last year as well!(In case you havent guessed...theres Hundreds of trucks in the fleet :lol: ) Anyway enough gabbering, heres a picture of the MG3 :D
  6. That pug 306 looks in great nick for a X-reg!
  7. I do that all the time with Bini. As I said, I'm just not a fan of Tesla, end of. :nods: Anyway, end of that matter, as in the end each to there own. :) - Heres the 3rd gen DAF CF, more I see pictures of the new DAF range the more i like it....still to see one on the road though! *though i'd spam with non car-but-auto-related stuff for a while...just to add a change.
  8. For us who don't live in North America, it's huge!
  9. They just look fantastic when you see them for real! One of, if not the best looking cars out there at the moment! And it's a hellofa car in every way! :D - Past two nights (mornings? whats 3:30am classed as for you?) I've came across a R33 Skyline GTR driving slowly. Really odd as most of the time you see a Skyline in the UK it's always being driven hard by someone who very likely to think it's the best car ever.
  10. True with that! That said if it was't for Alucard there would be no Hellsing! Also he has all the kick ass powers and stuff! But also like Seras more myself(depleated uranium shells anyone? :lol: ). With the blue-ray issue, it should't be a problem as PS3's are region free :D ...I imported a copy of Initial D Extreme Stage(PS3 game, only sold in Japan & Asia) and works fine. (other than 905 of stuff being in Japanese...but a racing games a racing game :lol: )
  11. From what my friends have told me with the Hellsing Anime is it's more based on Seras than anyone else, and how she deals with becoming a vampire, wheres the manga/film are(also the Anime doesn't follow the manga in alot of parts I'm told). Also the manga is more dank & gritty than the Anime. The action does improve(I only saw the first 7 episodes) though. :)
  12. If you liked Lucky Star you'll love Azumanga & Nichijou. :nods: As I said though with them, not actually seen a full episode of them...just plenty of snipit's off youtube. So random it's great! :D
  13. Manga allowed as well? ;) I've seen clips from alot, read alot and such from the list below. Initial D - Both Anime & manag. I'm sure it needs no introduction around here. In short, japanese touge racing and EUROBEAT(in the animes), quite real in most respects. I got a small number of the Manga's, as well as seen Seasons 1 - 4 & half of the 5th season for Initial D. It's got all the fancy in-depth talk of cars as well as driving techniques. Azumanga Daioh - Again, Anime & Manga. Really random one in a good way, Japanese school girls in the same way as Lucky Star...but really random! Only got the 3rd manga(only made 4 if i remember correctly), and not seen the anime fully...it's done as a sort of shot clips if that makes sense! Can see one sketch then the bit after wont be related sort of thing! Yotsuba - Manga only (no Anime), same writer as Azumanga. It's About life from an 8 year old girls point of view, very light hearted, cheery and innocent. Wagan midnight -Only seen the Anime. Much like Initial D, but set on the Wagan!(think of the highway). Over Rev - Manga only. Kinda like Initial D but much more light hearted, also the main person is a girl who has an AW11 MR2. Hellsing - Seen half of the Anime, and is diffrent from the movie & manag. I liked it, much different to the other stuff I've talked about. About vampires and such but I really liked it! Current avatar is from that. Thats the one's I've seen lots of. Seen clips fromNichijou(seems alot like lucky star & Azumanga) and seems random as hell! Love it for that. Also Lucky Star I've seen bits of. Seen more but don't know the names of them, my other friends are bigger into Anime than me so we'll often watch something and i wont know what it is. :lol:
  14. Was at a local car meet, so a ton of things.... And I never brought my camera. Normal stuff you expect, Imprezas, Evo's, Focus RS/ST's, bunch of Japanese stuff(Civics, S2000, 180SX, Slieghys, LS300, Skylines, Etc), a ton of proper off-roaders...Even a TVR Sagaris, Ferrari 458 Spyder, R8 V10 Spyder, Nissan GTR. Too many to list :lol: Oh...pick of the show was a Black Honda Civic Aerodeck and a blue Peugeot 306 Estate. No reasons why. ;)
  15. honestly, Tesla just seem to shout "look at us were doing soothing" and happen to get the limelight when others are doing the same thing but better...I mean the Tesla was just an Elise with a battery, Dodge beat them to it by shoving a battery in an Europa S! Also because drink heres a Ford CLT 9000.
  16. Theres something about Tesla I just don't like. :lol: There's plenty more from Blown Turbos ;)
  17. Someone was at mimms were they? ;) I'm going to the last big meet of the year up where I am...just a general meet though. First big one i'll have taken the 'Deck to since getting lowered and all that! :D Me & the Blown Turbos team will be at it.
  18. Will need to play with you guys again soon! :D Anyway...to boost my stats online I decided to take a bike ride, I acquired a bike from some friendly guy online(by acquired, I mean rammed him off it in return for shooting the AE86!), and started my trip around the San Andreas state! At the side of I1, heading south to LS... And in the outskirts of LS... Annnnd then it turns out that jump was't as easy as it looked... After that i seen about getting a new car :) I'm sure most of you know my questionable like in cars, so here's the newest audition to the Cal's Garage... What? Never said it'd be good now did I :cheeky: And some random shots I took: T34 Tank... Hover mode enabled? Police chopper finding my friend online...they did, and delt with his spree of robbing shops. And this, found in my garage!
  19. I've found an electric car I'd actually own...
  20. American Truck Simulator? I do like the sound of that! :D Will be a replacement of 18 WoS:ALH. Seeing the pictures it's got Peterbilt licensed so far, hope to see others in(Kenworth I'm guessing are in, as Peterbilt & Kenworth are both owned by PACCAR, who also own DAF). Also hope it's not just the modern ones, the Peterbilt 389 and such need to be in(as still made, and the classic design!). Guessing the trucks from ETS2 would easily enough be converted for ATS, so thats a number of extra trucks in the mix.
  21. Yes & No, if that makes sense. ;) Just watch this space and you'll see what happens.
  22. Nothing much.... Being in car journalism has it's up moments. ;)
  23. I saw & sat inside a 2012 LR Descovery yesterday....White, yellow & blue on the sides, Blue light on roof and in the grill and said Police on it. By sat in it, it was the back of it while my car was parked in front of it, and the lights were on on the police car while at the side of the road.
  24. For the past Week i've been passing a Morgan 2+. Always parked outside the sort of house you'd picture a Moggy next to. Ah well I'll be able to top your all peoples finds next month, going to be seeing something VERY special. ;)
  25. I know Camel answered for his, but for the record the Chinese owned longbridge made TF's were from 2007 - 2012(MG/R made ones ended in 2005/6)...but production was a start stop effort and build quality is anything from great to dire. :lol: - What your saying about the TF sum's in most of what I found when driving the MGF, cracker of a car, a dap of oppo was order of the day if you wanted. The cockpit of the F was a case of "what Rover did this part come off of",the heater controls, as well as other parts fit in my Honda because of that!) but worked well. For what is really a Rover Metro facing the wrong way...there a good un! For the new badge, going for the correct period MG/R one, or thinking of one from chinese owned TF's?? Kinda makes me I held out and got a F/TF, but I'll have space at the house soon enough for one. I don't get it? ;)
