    Basically a FF2000 spec engine & box ,135 bhp,Hewland 4 speed,no slipper,but being a racing car,not modified road car,they hang in there on the bends.Top speed is not great,about 120 going into paddock,dab of brake,then flat in top.Copse,at Silverstone is flat,& Thruxton is awesome.

    I'm closer! :)

    Dont know how you could choose a G spyder over a 6.0 unless your talking practicalities or reliablility!

    Get this, why are Diablos and Murcielagos called roadsters and G's spyders?

    Is it cos the G has nothing behind the headrest whereas the Murcie and Diablo have just a part of the roof missing?

    Had some titties on it etc but i had to cut them out. This is an old pic of my clio dimma when i turned it into a trackcar after aqauplaning on the M6. Only difference to now is it has a side exit and blows big flames. Getting it restored now as it was my first car so keeping it in the collection.

    Why not, if you earn enough and the return on the vehicle isnt that great then do so. Its a great feeling to know you've kept your first car. I wrote mine off after 8 years so the value greatly diminished so it wasnt worth selling.

    60yrs + sounds about right!

    A bit late to join the discussion on supermarket car parking, but I want to suggest a reason why M & B spaces are usually close to the entrance. I imagine that this is to minimize the risk of accidents to small children, especially when their parents are returning to the car laden with bags or with a heavy trolley.

    Children have a habit of suddenly darting away. Drivers cruising the supermarket car park have a habit of scanning the area for available places. Two sets of people not paying as much attention as they might, were they on the highway.
