  1. Motors TV* often show the Aussie V8 Superstars, often for several hours! :D *Dunno what channel it is, but can be found on Freeview. And they show everthing from V8 Superstars & GT3 all the way down to the 'MG Club UK ZR championship'.
  2. I've a whole host of playlist's I use for driving, a drive down the duel carriageways or a nice relaxed jaunt in the country side....and not forgetting for a touge-inspired blast in the mountains. (In that case, it's all Eurobeat from Initial-D...) Picking 13 is hard, but i've narrowed it down to great ones that it in any mood of driving, and it's in no order really... 1) 2) 3) (Extended edition if possible) 4) (Most known from NFS:MW 2012) 5) - 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) (Cover of the song made for the TV show 'Archer') 11) 12) 13) Enjoy. :)
  3. @Myk & Bentley's Ultra-Barge. I applaud this, it is king of the barges. Ultra long wheel base (U-LWB?) Your move Roll's Royce, I know they say length is't everything, but in this game it is. :lol:
  4. Sadly Mazda have said a few time's they feel the MX5 is perfect as it and don't feel the need to do any more. (The guys at BBR wont mind though!) Thankfully though the partnership Fiat/Mazda have is't like the Toyota/Subaru one...so Fiat can go crazy if they want. :lol: Word is that a 'Biposto' edition may be on the cards...andif the 595 Bipsosto is anything to go by it'll be crazy. (And a price to match) More info on the Abarth Spider over at Auto Express.
  5. [headline]Forza Motorsport 6: Porsche Pack[/headline] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mE6ynmEnLFg As we all knew it was coming, here's the video. Includes 20 classic and modern porkers of race & road varieties as well as a new track. Added with that is new leagues and championships. I would include a list of whats in, but can't find a full list online. Out now. :) Read more on this...

  6. Dat Abarth Sypder, and great to see they are doing a WRC spec one as was rumored! Never know, 4 years time & trade in time for the 595 may have a weird outcome. :lol: - Lamborghini Huracan Gordini Spec anyone? [ATTACH]25270[/ATTACH] Sorry, it's the Avio.
  7. The big one for alot of people is the 911R, with all the rumors the past few years of a more back to basics 911 coming back. It'll no doubt be epic, it'll be fun and hopefully will be able to spec it to look like a base model (i'll have mine in guards red please, with more normal looking alloys if possible) but I can see that it'll be in the same vain as the Cayman GT4, a limited production run with a big price tag as special 911's command. (here's hoping I'm wrong) Still, hopefully be able to use it in Forza or see one at a local meet! :)
  8. I like it...then I got to the rear 3/4 view and it just't doesn't do it for me there. Shame.
  9. Personally the best looking car McLaren offer in my opinion, The rear end really suit's the design in my eyes! - Sad news for the ultra rich...The Roll's Royce Phantom ends production this year! But don't worry, an all new one will be back for 2018. Sadly no word on what engine/engines(?) will be on offer. [ATTACH]25168[/ATTACH] A run out of 100 run out models, split 50/50 between the Coupe & Drophead are due because they WONT be replaced sadly, my guess is the Wraith & Dawn have taken there place's. Shame, as the Phantom Coupe/Drophead just have an aura of epicness because of there size if you ask me. The run out model's will be called the 'Zenith' and feature things such as "Laser-etched armrests", bespoke dials, a new Spirit of Ecstasy figure and a "money can't buy" memento of the purchase. So i'm guessing it'll be more than just a signed plaque and book... More information here. I'd best get my order in, otherwise I may have to settle with a S-class Pullman or something until 2018... :rolleyes:
  10. As you guys know, I'm not the worlds biggest fan of Ze German cars. But as you know Im a big fan of my barges, so I had a bit of a play around... Audi S8 Plus... [ATTACH]25122[/ATTACH] Moonlight blue with Black/Black interior(Optional 'Perforated Natural leather' seats selected) with 'Audi exclusive inlays', so that's wooden trim. Optional dynamic pack for the 190Mhp top speed was a must. as well, and the Sunroof/Solar panel was ticked to boot. Added the Ski/Luggage box and roof rails as well as 'Audi Wireless internet Access' for the EU. Loving the OTR price of: £112,869.000 As all too tempting to make it Java Green but would have killed the idea of a nice, under the radar 2 tonn luxo barge feel. :lol: Now to BMW and the M760Li... Sadly, the M760Li is't out yet, or showing on BMW UK, so the 'lesser' 750I M Sport will do. So it's in Singapore Grey with the optional 20" alloys (£1,100), with the Mocha Exclusive Nappa leather and Light Poplar wood interior trim. (£80 extra) Admittedly that's all I had for this as BMW's configuration page is rubbish compared to Audi's. OTR price of £81,150.00 And keeping the sporty luxo-barge theme going, Mercedes only had 1 option to pick... The S65 AMG... [ATTACH]25121[/ATTACH] In Ruby Black metalic and sporting the 20" multi-spoke AMG alloys, black/black interior with walnut trim. Individual rear seats being the only other optional extra, as near enough everything is included as standard! An eye watering price of £183,880.00 I'll stick to my 2000 LS400 that cost me £1,500 now I think of it... :lol:
  11. Small update... JDM Sized front plate & bonnet Scorpion to the Abarth: [ATTACH]25119[/ATTACH] And Lexy's storage... [ATTACH]25120[/ATTACH]
  12. Sorry I was't there guys, been jumping about the place the past 3 days and forgot I had the car in for a clean today at 3:30PM...
  13. I've had a few people ask whats happening to the LexBus. Don't worry, I'm keeping her and she will be used when needed. She'll be under the care of Top...Men....
  14. :lol: She does know I have the car though.
  15. 1 More bridge shot just for you Diablo... [ATTACH]25043[/ATTACH]
  16. Actually the first person to make a hairdresser joke. (I can book you on this tueday? :lol: ) All but 1 person has been surprised by this and even then he was surprised that i actually got one! (He's known for years i like the car). And you ask for more Photo's... [ATTACH]25035[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]25036[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]25037[/ATTACH] Me™ took these last night while I took it for a spin of the city. That involved getting airborne at one point. :lol: Honestly Can't get enough of it, just so fun to drive and feels' so 'chuckable' and it's a nippy thing! Can't wait for the weather to get better and have a blast up Cairngorm way and such on the back roads! Have a few things on order so hoping to have them fitted by next weekend. :)
  17. Damm, the race was at 3pm(GMT) this week!? Though it was going to be 5 from now on. Whoever took my space at back of the grid, don't get comfortable there as I'll be back to reclaim it next week! :cheeky: Oh well, guess i'll go back to hooning the Abarth again. :lol:
  18. So "Something new" actually has 2 meanings this time... [ATTACH]25026[/ATTACH] It's a new car to me & it's an actual new car. Bet you wernt expecting that. :nuts: So, she's an Abarth 595, the 'basic' Abarth with 140hp and has the optional 17" wheels. Managed to get a fantastic deal on finance thanks to it being a pre-reg car and also ex-demo car, so had 350 miles on the clock. On a 4 year deal so expect to see alot on her over that time. Thoughts so far? The hanging is perfect and the engine is punchy, with the size being perfect for zipping about the place in the same style as the Cappo. The sound is fantastic both inside & out, honestly would't think it's the factory exhaust or it's a 1.4! Downside? The ride is very harsh, would be fine if it was't for the state of the UK's roads. Can't wait for it to be fully run in and taker her for a good run! :D
  19. The same game i've been playing near enough all the time since it came out...Fallout 4. :lol: With a wee dabble with Forza 6 online with some of your guys. And maybe some Age of Empires 2....followed by Fallout 4.
  20. Kept it quite to all but 1 of my friends, with near enough all of them surprised as well. :D Looking forward to 4 good years with her!
  21. Fun is a understatement, handling is spot on and the engine is punchy when needed. :) The ride is firm, and between that the the seating position makes long duel-carriage way trip's a tad annoying but no worse than the Cappuccino was. Also I'm a bit used to the Lexus for it. Drove 55 miles or so on the duel carriageway then turned off to take some back roads the rest of the way where it really shines. Haven't even used the 'sport button' yet. Had to get the car in Dundee as it's the closest Abarth dealer to me, ex-demo car with the optional 17" wheels so got it stupidly cheap on finance. For that reason, not planning on doing much if anything to her. Got a sticker planned but that's it. All the tinkering will be left for the Lexus.
  22. 2 and a half months into 2016 and already got a new car... [ATTACH]25024[/ATTACH]
  23. Is it me or are a few of us all getting cars in the past month or so? First Mr.Lol, me and yourself! So who's next? :lol: - Nice one Tim, feeling the difference the first time you drive with new suspension is fantastic! Remember when I got the Coilovers on the Civic. :)
  24. I haven't seen a Tigra of any gen in years! Forgotten that Mk2 was a convertible, always though they looked nice! :)
  25. By the end of this week, I'll have 4 cars in my ownership... You guys have been warned. Be surprised, scared, amazed or disgusted when the time comes. :smig:
