There is no version of the Polo in Canada either,
but we can have a bigger Dodge every year.



yeah hammer, and do you notice how big the toyota trucks are getting? i almost got hit by a tundra v8 or something, i actually thought it was a dodge 1500 at first. it was huge.


The waxworks were an immensely eloquent dissertation on the wonderful ordinariness of mankind.

for a second there, kfs, i thought i was looking at the 'Guiness Book of Records' largest garage door.

Transmarine? Capri? Now we're talking. It's my girlfriend's favourite car, ever. There was one in mint condition sold recently for £10,000.

I was thinking about this car as I was scrolling down the page. I think it's this one, there's two round here, a green and a lilac one. I've been vaguely obsessing over them.

I'm sure it's this one, Simone?

Either way. Want one.

Idiot.



I think I know the one you mean. I have seen quite a few here too, but they are not originals as I had hoped. They are brand new copies.

Car update... Drove to work for first time in it, was heading back from lunch up a bit of a hill, quite fast, and bang, a load of water poured into the driver's side?!?!!! Not very happy. It's quite a deep puddle, took ages to get out and it's still very damp. :(

No water had built up in the engine and it got into the car as something was blocked that should have let it drain out underneath... A trip back to the garage methinks!

My dad is an excellent mechanic, but he's based in Oldham so probably no use to you.

Someone in town took a Niva and lifted it enough
that it was as tall as it was long...very strange.

Are Renault Meganes circa 1999 shit?
Am i better off going for an Almera from the same year? (the megane has 90,000 miles, the almera has 130,000, and cost a bit more. Both are in good nick)
