  1. Though I'd start the season's thread since nobody else has. :) So, with the first round over with, whats everybody thoughts?
  2. For the record, how busy is busy? Like a few cars in a in a housing estate or we talking parked up in a city street? As I've a few for the former but none for the latter.
  3. New T-Shirt. :) Also got car parts, nothing fancy just brake pads for the Civic & Clio as well as basic service stuff for the Civic. (filters, plugs, etc)
  4. Now that, I like! :D
  5. Chinas an odd one, as theres a ton of home grown manufactures who make there own cars based on there own designs, otheres make old cars and otheres make a re-hash of stuff. (Useing chassis & engines from british cars made in the 80's but with the body made to mimic an Audi A6 for example, which is an actual car) Also if foreign makers want to sell cars in large amounts, They have to team up with a local manufacture...so alot of Audis, Mercs, BMW's, Hondas, etc are actually made locally in China for the China market! But enough of global manufacturing & industrial & how China is beating us at it all. :lol: As i said in the original post: From old, interesting cars at the local scrappy. Buildings in ruin or old wrecks. :D
  6. This arrived for me today... [ATTACH]20065[/ATTACH] "Death Tune" gear knob by ZillaLife. Because why not. Excuse the epic quality photo, my phones epic for that sort of thing...
  7. That RX7 was about a year ago...it's now very likely to be part of a Chinese made car now or a can of beans. :( Often find a few classic,retro & odd things in the scrap yards around where I live. Today I saw the Maestro which I got pictures of, as well as a AW11 MR2(in another yard) and a old Jaguar XJ. With a ton of other cars. I dunno what it is, but I like to wounder round the yards, it's interesting and at the same time usefull! But Personally want to do a bit of urban exploring soon...but nowhere near me for that really. :lol:
  8. :bump: Epic bump/Duble post combo. Anyway when hunting for parts for the Clio & Civic I came across this... A Austin/Rover Maestro with the grill from the MG. Was a Perkings diesel engined one as well. And some engine porn of it... Other guy in the pictures is another forum user from here. :lol:
  9. Missed out Knockhill & Rockingham. :confused: Two important British ones that host BTCC & British GT, With knockhill also having the British Super bikes & the rally cross championship. ;)
  10. Jap cars = American cars = European cars, all cool in there own ways. There just rubbish when compared to the Rover 75, that's all. ;)
  11. Thanks for the info! :D I'm not too bothered about the quality and such too much as personally I don't want to spend mega bucks on a model, as long as it looks nice and not too rough around the edges.

  12. 100 Euros? Could you have looked in a local scrap yard? I got a Left side lamp for the same style A3 for £15 last summer for my brothers old A3 that way.(Should still be in the shed actually)
  13. Least it's just cosmetic damage, and should be fairly cheap to fix/replace parts. Still never good hitting something and not good for the ego... :ill:
  14. Lad's, your acting as if you've never seen a picture of a nice girl before. :lol: Anyway, heres an old one from the BTCC at knockhill last year, finally got this from my mate after many many months...
  15. I know them feels. Added points for it having the Motocompo bike packed in the boot as well!
  16. @Milli: How is Rio? Always though about going there as have memory's of it on Driver 2, as well as it looking like a nice place to just kick back & relax in the sun! Wait, someone from the modding section has found the rest of the forum? :cheeky:
  17. That reminds me of a signature somebody here used to have years ago... "The bigger your post count the bigger your..." :lol: I think it was here anyway...
  18. I just felt like posting somthing. ;)
  19. [ATTACH]20041[/ATTACH] ;)
  20. Actually had one years ago, originally my brothers. Straps broke off somtime early 2000's and still have the time-peace somwhere in the house, last time I seen it it was still working. ;) Wanted to get a watch and remembered how well it served me, and surprised to see they still made it! Huge choice of colours, including gold & silver metal, but they don't seem to fit it like the black. Also Could't find anywhere selling the Thomas the Tank engine watch that i had when I was 5. :lol:
  21. I'll have to wait until I get more plutonium before I can fire the DeLorean up and go back. ;) It does the job and I love the basic Retro look, not bad for £7 new.
  22. Got these over the past week & a bit... Casio F-91W, 3DS & Pokemon Y.
  23. It's not as bad as you think! Insurance is't too bad for them and the 1.4 petrols have some poke to them. Mates one made it up to 150k miles before the head gasket packed in as well! Not bad for a £700 car. ;)
  24. I've a thing for knowing all sorts of cars. ;) Would love a City Turbo myself, complete with the Honda Motocompo bike that came with it! :D But your right, most modern cars lack the flair and fun of older stuff...here's hoping the new Twingo will be a hoot though!
  25. That Venturi Robik posted! :D Oh well, been a while since I posted something here... :D
