Now, to you and me, the idea of spending $20,000 turning a Daihatsu Charade into something that looks like an inside-out chocolate orange might seem lightly absurd, but there are people out there – a surprising number of them in fact – who consider this the height of cool.
Generally I avoid these people with the same vigour I apply to dodging rugby league fans and evolution-deniers who think that dinosaur bones are actually from dragons.
Once a month or so, though, I like to do something unutterably stupid, just to keep life interesting. This month it was agreeing to help FHM judge a car-pimping contest at the Blacktown Drive-in, as part of a promotion for the DVD launch of the film sequel with the laziest name in history – Fast and Furious.
Now, I should have known that fans of this kind of film would be colourful, or indeed lit from beneath by blue halogen.
And I should have known that I would struggle to judge a contest in which I effectively thought all the cars were equally shit.
Yet somehow I was still taken aback by the things people had done to perfectly good, innocent motor vehicles, none more so than the Daihatsu which, somehow, managed to finish second.
Its owner was, at best, 13 years old and the fact that he’d managed to somehow summon $20K while still struggling to grow facial hair was a deep mystery, but not quite as deep as what made him think his car needed six TV screens.
Sure, the ones in the back of the front seat head rests were mildly absurd, because no one old enough to watch television could actually fit in the back seats of his Direhatsu, but they were as nothing compared to the idiocy of the screens fitted on the armrests of both the driver’s and passenger’s door.
Apparently, in this boy’s genetically weirdsome world, elbows have eyes, and they like to watch movies while cruising.
The boot, such as it was in the first place, had been replaced by a single speaker, allegedly loud enough to not only frighten horses but knock them stone dead. I say allegedly because when he attempted to turn it on the other judge and I grabbed him by the hair on his skinny chin-chin and dissuaded him keenly.
Once he’d finished turning the Charade’s insides into that scene at the end of the confusing third Matrix movie or, for our older readers, a replica of the inside of Houston’s Mission Control, he had turned his attention to the vexed issues of light and colour.
Installing downlights in the roof bright enough to give Whoopi Goldberg a tan was his first inspired move, followed by covering everything in the kind of orange colour that fake tan could create after 10,000 applications, at once.
Finishing every shiny surface in metallic purple was his coup de crass.
And that was just one of the entrants. I can’t talk about the rest because my stomach starts to churn again, but suffice it to say that if you didn’t have an exhaust big enough to smuggle basketballs in, you would have turned tail and driven home in disgrace.
My question to you, because I truly can’t answer it myself, is why? Why do people do this to their cars? Please, explain.
Its just the evolution of our young drivers – i mean most young blokes do something to there ride to make it there own!!
times change – and so does the size of there wallets it seems-art,expression,the search for cool!!
Or just sheer desperation to be american!
When I was a kid, all I wanted to do was drop a V8 into my Torana. I didn’t even want to put a spoiler or flares on it because it wasn’t an original SLR man! It’s just not right.
who ta hell wrote this blog,earthy you promised you would stop this essay crap.
how did you get a job at top gear?
It’s so good to have fans.
Why did you pick a throw away car to hot up it will just make you look like a try hard you should have gone with somthing that had more potential?
I tune my car because it makes the every day thing more exciting and when you don’t have a girlfriend kinda need to spend your money on somthing you like. I just wanted to make my car more fun to drive only i am tuneing the engine thats it. When i am done i will have taken my N/A Lancer 2.0L from 115hp to if i’m lucky 150hp so far it’s up to 126hp and 182nm that was from 115hp and 170nm i just need 2 more mods and i’m done i’ve done the exhust fully custom the cold air kit collects cool air from the ground and it’s been retuned on the dyno it’s on the RPW website if you want to see i intent to do the throttle body next then if i can get the money for it the camshaft but that’s about it then it’s all save for a house.
i hope that helps.

Stephen Corby, you didn’t write this or surely you’d have put your name to it?!
When I was young, we modified cars in such a way that they’d go faster, or handle better. Extractor exhaust systems replaced the cheap and dodgy cast-iron factory jobs. Hoons these days add (hugely) oversized chrome tips to their exhaust pipes.
Standard wheels were replaced for wider ones for extra meat on the road.
Nowadays, hoons pay thousands of dollars for 22 inch, 24 inch rims and so on, with very expensive rubber that’s far more likely to puncture or break the bead than standard wheels.
We’d replace the standard carburettor with multiple carby’s, eg. my Datsun 1600 had twin-su’s added with a free-flowing manifold. My Nissan 260Z had a Holley 350 on it, and my Mini Cooper ‘S’ had a hole chopped into the firewall, and a Weber 40DCOE carby instead of the original twin SU’s.
Cars these days get enormous, and usually unattractive lumps of plastic added to their outsides in a usually failed attempt to make one’s car look fully sick. In my day, we’d replace steel front guards and bonnets with fibreglass look-alike panels to lose weight. Cops couldn’t tell the difference but the car went faster.
We even got into such topics as the merits of losing sprung weight versus unsprung weight. Porting heads for better flow. Adding a lumpy cam and/or re-curving the distributor to change the timing.
People who modify cars these days only seem to care about visual changes, paint jobs, impractical rims and plastic body kits, chrome exhaust tips, and ridiculously loud stereos.
There is nought attention to making the car faster or handle better. It’s 100% for wank value.
Oh, and why do car modifiers these days always pick something pathetic as the base to the project? Like a Hyundai Excel, or a Daihatsu Charade?
It’s always something totally gay like that.
I once saw a ‘fully sick’ car that had been wanked on to the nines. You know, multi-colour paint, 100 kilos of add-on body kit, huge chrome exhaust tip, chrome rims. Pulled up to him, wound down the window and said,
“Hey buddy, is that (long pause) a Hyundai?”.
Then we just drove off laughing. So funny, you had to be there.
i agree little bit’s thats why i said i’m only tuneing the engine don’t want mags or body kit’s it would look gay for one the amount of hyandai’s i have seen with body kits but no engine work. why make a car look a little more better if it goes like a slug the work i’m doing to my car would be similar to what you would have done to your dato expet you have to spend money because it is a computers now and far to complicated.
Ill come clean, I dont mind modified cars to SOME extent. Getting an R33 GT-R and tuning the engine, sticking 19’s on (20 max, anything above is just wanky), adding a wing and kit, and modifying the suspension a bit, change the paint to a reasonable colour and add a graphic or too, and Im right with that. Having 6 screens in a dihatsu is not right! Thats wanky. Who in teir right mind does that. In the pic at the top I see a taxi orange Jimny on 22’s (very wanky), and what appears to be a purple lancer (acceptable). Im not sure what the interiors look like, but judging by the outside, we have a savagedly polished turd in the jimny, and an alright lancer.
Some people do what others wont because they have nothing better to do and it gives the rest of the world something to talk about.
Every modified car, be it a Porsche or a Charade has been modified for different reasons. It doesnt matter why or how these cars are modified because theyre not my cars and if it makes the owner happy and fulfilled with what theyve done to their cars whats the difference to everyone else.
There are questions that have no answers because there are to many possible answers that could be applied and this is one of those questions. Eg.QUESTION: Why do some people crunch the toilet paper whilst others fold it?
ANSWER: Who gives a shit.
corby ,i thought you hired earthy as your private secretary to write the blogs now,hope to see a story on the repco rally this weekend???
or the cars at least.
I lowered my recumbent bicycle so far it can travel under carpet.
so what caused the global warming on mercury,i bet it was farting cattle and cars.
What ever happened to lowering, whacking on a set of chrome mags & a decent V8?
I think what they do to cars now is called progress. Just like the cars themselves have progressed from good to crap over the last 30 years, so has car modification. Added to that that the younger generation have about as much taste as they have respect & it’s no wonder that they are doing up Charades & rubbish.
I’m all for a ripper stereo but even that has limits. Thare’s no need for five hundred speakers that will kill me if I turn it up too loud. So long as it’s loud enough for the old lady in the car next to you to give you a dirty look it’s good enough.
I got passed yesterday by a Suzuki Vitara that had been done by one of these younger idiots. It had a lift kit under it that would put any serious off roader to shame & the tyres were that big that they nearly stuck out the front & rear of the vehicle. It’s that high that it practically had to stop to get around a corner & not fall over. I actually had to look at it twice to work out what the hell kind of car it even was. This thing made that Sierra at the top of page look standard. All I could think when I saw it was “WHY?”
GOM,sounds like it was one of those extreme rock hopper mods,its popular in the US,they climb over rocks, logs etc.or a mud bog racer.
Nothing to do with me, this post was all Corby!
But I have to disagree with Mr Corby, modified transport has always been a creative outlet for young blokes. William Lyons, Colin Chapman etc etc etc all got started by modifying very boring old cars. And I bet their middle aged parents thought them hideous too.
Now my 1984 Alfa GTV runs a twin spark 2.0 with programmable ignition, is stripped bare for lightness and scares the bejeezus people older than me. I’m sure they disapprove.
It’s recycled, fast and fun and didn’t cost me my wages for the next 5 years so it makes me happy. So surely, if putrid purple insides and TV’s in the armrests make the little boy happy then whats the harm?
I think tuning a car and modifying it are two different things – improving vs stuffing up entirely.
This was funny:
“I lowered my recumbent bicycle so far it can travel under carpet.”
And this GOM bloke needs to explain himself:
I think what they do to cars now is called progress. Just like the cars themselves have progressed from good to crap over the last 30 years,
I don’t mind some of things the doof doof crowd do to their cars. In fact Earthy may be right in that it is becoming quite a popular outlet for the kiddies to unleash their artistic side.
I guess though as a father of 4 (meaning I’m always poor) I do look at cosmetic mods as being a bit of a waste of money. Having said that my opinion is a little jaded by the fact I drive an early 80’s Datsun 720 Dual Cab with half a million kms on it. To try and get that looking as fully sick as possible would be……. expensive to say the least (it’s not called Battletruck for nothing). So instead I tossed the L20 and replaced it with a Nissan CA20 and 5 speed out of a 1988 Pintara, and replaced most of the suspension components.
Ok so it didn’t cost me $20,000 to modify, the vibration from the stereo doesn’t cause birds to fall from the sky, and the wheels don’t go around and around when I’m parked. But it does have a lot more power than it had before, fuel consumption has decreased, it’s a bloody joy to start on a cold morning, but the most important thing…….. I only ever get pulled over by the police for RBT.
I’m not saying I’m against the kiddies pimping their rides. It’s more jealousy. Getting a bit sick of these pimpmobiles running Microtech computers…….. and the owners have no idea what it does, or how it works…… but it looks fully sick.
Long Live Battletruck.
Call me dinosaur Corby but I believe in plugs & points with a carby on top. I can fix most things on the side of the road & don’t have to have a computer plugged into it to do a tune up! I have very little faith in things that run on heaps of electronics. I’m all for improving brakes, suspension, chasis & body design, safety features etc, but transmission & engine running off computers is just garbage designed to break.
Face it, cars used to be built to last. Now they are designed to break down every so often so you have to go buy parts which means $ in manufacturers pockets. Then you have to pay them more to fit said parts if it has anything to do with engine management etc.
Virtually the only thing that could go wrong with the electrics on a HQ, was a blown fuse, or an easy to find short & it was simple enough to learn how to fix them that most people could do minor repairs on the side of the road.
Now when you take it to get repairs done it will probably come back worse than it went in the 1st place.
I do agree with you that there is a big difference in improving a car & destroying them with heaps of useless crap.
Why not make your ride ‘fully sick’, having a TV in your armrest and a massive stereo might be a complete waste of time and money, but no more so than having a thumping great V8 under the hood. You’re not likely to use either in anger. It’s more about macho posturing than anything else. Spending $20 000.00 on some plastic for your hyundai might be a momnumental waste of money, but no more so than spending the cash on performance mods?
i think old cars sux,the f,,,,, rust,nobody could find the misfire in my 202,,nobody could align the gearbox in my fiat 850 sports,and ,rust,rust and more rust.i put 3 recon engines in to L200 4×4 ute,and it still used 3litres of oil every 100 km,not to mention the rust.no more rust or blue smoke thanks.
Old cars don’t suck Spandau, but thankfully I can weld and build a decent engine. Without being able to do this I wouldn’t bother. Anyway, if you ride a bike or get the train you’re saved from all of this surely?
Spandau – If you were having rust problems then you should have fixed them properly to start with. Then you should have maintained the body work properly. If you don’t, then of course it will rust. That’s entirely owner laziness.
Your engine problems sound like you simply don’t/didn’t know what being reconditioned properly is & you got ripped off or you did the work you didn’t know what you were doing.
As for your Fiat transmission, IT’S A FIAT!! What do you expect?
Spandau
ALL 202s have a miss – standard issue from holden!
as for the l200 the fact that its going at all is great.same goes for the fiat
(fix it again tony)
Mr Rusty is from the old days when cars were made of real metal!
Earthy – so you can build a decent engine! is that a solar engine or a steam engine – or 2 rats on a treadmill??
As for people who hate old cars think about this good cars had to come from somewere you don’t just come up with a good desgin and idea i learned to drive in a run down XW Falcon and i loved driving that car it wasn’t fast but even with destroyed apustary it was sure comftable and it had 3 on the tree so you could have a extra person in the front it was good for our family because there was six of us also it had done over half a million km’s without a engine rebuild.
As for 202’s well i knew a tafe leturer who said they had built a sprint car pumping over 700hp that use to wip the V8’s it just boils down to how much money you want to spend although instead of pimping a car to go fast probly cheaper and smarter to buy a already turbo fast car like a silvia or older wrx.
Yeah I’ve got a couple of Kelpies mounted on a treadmill on the roof of my Alfa. Sorry did I twin spark or twin Bark???
maybe i should have said anything before around early70s and after early 90s is good stuff ,but anything from the 80s is absolute crap,disposable cars with about3 year lifespan with inbuilt body time bomb and piston rings made out of balsa wood,but when unleaded fuel came they had to build better engines.
Trouble with Italian cars from before 1970 is that the Italians where getting their steel from the USSR
Re: TV screens in armrests…
If you have seen “Fast and Furious” then you would understand why it is better to watch some movies with your elbows, rather than with your eyes.
I agree with you completely Steve. When you see someone who has been given mum’s Excel and lower them on their guts, install a big stereo, a stupidly fat exhaust and some bling lights to the cost of around $15K, you just start to think, why the hell didn’t they trade that heap of junk in on a decent car, like a 5 year old Passat, Lancer or XR6, depending on their taste. Better car, more reliable, more powerful, more options, that will last you longer, and most importantly? People won’t think that you’re an absolute burk.
Pimping as it’s now known is about expressing yourself and being and individual in your peer group. We used to call it customising, remember?
The whole idea of the example Corby has given is to be over the top and absolutely useless to drive while highlighting the contrast between the basis and the end result, which I have been assured proves something.
Sort of makes the efforts in my young days pale. The go then was to buy a car cheap enough to leave the money for the cut and polish, chrome rims, 2″ lowering blocks, bright orange track rods and most important of all, the Lukey muffler. It wouldn’t go any better but you were one of the boys and anyway it only had to cruise the main street in second gear all Saturday night. Then as you saved up you customised it with lights, badges and decals etc. Not quite the same is it?
As for keeping old bangers going, yes a lot of fun and not too hard on the wealth but not a good idea if you live in a no public transport zone, as I do,and so rely on a car for livelihood, as I do, and can not afford a play car.
hi everyone.i personally have never liked little cars hotted up.i don’t really like body kits on any type of car.a nice decent colour,standard tyres and grouse rims can turn heads.the motor is another completely different thing.if in the right hands.and i agree with G.O.M.’s post 22.have a 95 holden acclaim everything is stock,the motor that is being put
in it is from a v6 VT commodore.the only other
thing that’s being added is a set of good mags.
anyone who pimp’s their ride,is just asking for attention the wrong kind from police.
There cars are a bit like thier room at home – all the toys are there to play with and they can play loud “doof doof” music anytime! without mum going off!!!
But really-i have seen a few jaw droppers at shows over the years,not so much tv,s and lights but things like gull wing doors on a soarer or a 350z with a 3in roof chop!!.
Yeah but your talking about cool mods Black Dog. I like the sound of the gull wing doors on the soarer. I have seen a 350z with a 2inch chop job. Was painted a dark pearl purple with heaps of chrome. Looked spectacular.
Those cars out of Fast & Furious movies are just electronics stores on wheels. (except for some of the cool american muscle cars they use).
Holden chick34 – The Torrie was a small car. I know you love those almost as much as I do. I think old small cars are cool to do up but anything after 1980 isn’t worth the plastic it was built with & is totally unsuitable to do up. Do up for racing & the newer stuff comes into it’s own. WRX, Lancer etc.
Saw a Mazda 808 once that had been lowered, chopped & had a supercharger poking out of the bonnet. I doubt it was legal but it looked cool. Bet it was scary scary to drive though.
yeah G.O.M. i love all the classic holden’s and
have seen so many old classics done up and they
look hot and sound sweet.the one’s i dont like
are what you talked about.electronic’s dont impress me,neither do the charades done up or the gammin nissan’s with all the graphic’s.yeah i saw same mazda it was in street machine it did look cool a shame it wasn’t legal.if i was given a project to do up an old car it would have to be 1964 EH premier,painted candy apple
red,nice set of hot mags,and i’d drop a V6 ecotech motor in her,sports exuast fitted and away we go.
EH. Classic, beautiful car. I’m working on an LH hatch at the moment. Been working on rebuilding it for about 4yrs now. Spent about $12g on it so far & I still have to pay for my the 308 I’m having built for it. That’s another $7g. It’s getting 2pack midnight blue in the spray shop at the moment.
When I finish it (eventually), I will give you a link to photobucket so you can check it out. Going to put a full rebuild album up when I get all the pics taken & sorted.
i always wanted to hot rod a 1949’s ford coupe thats my favrite carit’s too bad car companys don’t build people old car body shapes for just that reason.
1940’s sorry typing error.
speedo ,google up chervolet sr.
sorry thats,chervolet SSR.
that sounds sweet G.O.M.look forward to seeing
photo’s.and speed demon you can get 1940’s hot rod body from usa.someone in australia can get them in.google hotrod imports.my hubby had 64 EH
premier and he did a beautiful job.that was when he was 16 and he’s nearly 40 now.custom hot
rods speed demon i think it is matey.hope to have EH for next year to start project.an EH PREMIER with a v6 ecotech dropped in will show the excels,charades how it’s done.
holdendrip,how come hubby takes his and your cars to autoelectricitions when he is one him self?are you two special needs?
That’s an easy one Tango. When you do something all day, the last thing you want to do is that thing on your time off. If you can afford, why not get someone else to do it?
I’m a qualified mechanic as well as a brake & suspension tech but I rarely do my own work anymore. I can afford to pay someone else so I have more time to do what I like. I only do the jobs that I won’t trust to my mechanic. Which isn’t much seeing as my mechanic is the bloke I did my apprenticeship with.
yes G.O.M. exactly!that’s what my hubby has said too.but in the last 8mths he’s got the shits with the other guy for not doing his job properly,so he does all our work too now.takes cars to his merchanic mate if it’s really needed.he’s putting in a v6 motor from a vt commodore into our new baby 95 acclaim sedan.can’t wait to see this one on the road.
and spandex printed out a copy of the mazda museum for the roadpacer.uncle tells me mazda usa done a deal with holden here in oz.same as toyota n holden few years back.
corby, you brass bowl,why is it i never get my posts printed in the mag,even earthy gets his in,you cant deny my posts are far more inteligent then these dip sticks ,including you,do i not ass lick enough for you?was it when i said i would start reading wheels mag?.
yes, guess so GOM ,ever seen the plumbing at a plumbers house!!!!!yes holdendrip,i think GM would sell its mother for a buck.but i love the chevy ssr ute.did you know the french had a ute 30 years before us.
and is it also like a dentist going to another dentist to get his fillings GOM ???????????
Spandau, take your medication, or at least let go of the exclamation and question mark buttons every once in a while.
Had a good laugh over the special needs question, though…
yes spandex i do know that about the french.yeah thought the special needs question was funny too annmarie,considering its as old as spandex!ha ha
Have a bad day did we Spandex Ballet?
Maybe Corby doesn’t put you in because your always insulting people you bloody great turkey. I don’t think claiming your posts are more intelligent than Corby’s are exactly going to make him warm up to you either.
I think the only special needs person around here is you matey. Do you hear the little voices in your head?
Poor Spandex isn’t getting the recognition he thinks he deserves. Ohhh, poor little pookie, do you need your bot-bot?
Go put your tutu on & get into that Spandex Ballet action if you want to make a spectacle of yourself.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ?????
Flamin’ annoying isn’t it?
Especially when someone keeps putting up multiple posts when they could have said it all in one.
I bet that you hate I’ve done it just to annoy you.
Get the message yet?
can just see it now spandex in a tutu gracfully
dancing around the loungeroom floor to spandau
ballet’s ‘i know this much is true’ then breaking into disco moves to ‘gold’.i’d pay to see that.
hey speed demon did you find a site for custom hot rods?
corby have a question for you.what would be your dream machine if you were to build a car?
what would it be?what would it look like?and what mods would you make to the motor?
G.O.M.you have a good sense humour.i couldnt stop laughing with your post 55.
MUAHAHAHAHAH MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,,,,,,yo u ding bats MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA…………!!!!!! !!
hi annie.
WOW!! Top come back there, ballerina.
Careful now, G.O.M., you’re starting to make me wonder if you and Spandau aren’t actually the same person…
Hi Spandau, sorry if that last one offended you.
Same to you, G.O.M.
And if I didn’t know that Little Bits can actually spell and write complete sentences, I’d say both of you are him.
annie,are you saying we were sperm bank babys???
Yeah annemarie, me and my multiple personalities write nearly the whole blog. Except for your comment of course. Like I’d have the time.
No. It’s true. It’s all just a mind game to make you paranoid.
Not that easy to offend me Annemarie.
gold spandex just gold.thanks for the complement
by the way.how can they all be the same person when they all live in different states?
complement??????????????? ???????????
yer you know post 59?ding bat! how’s the tutu and the dancing?so is your ballarina costume pink or purple?
well holdendrip,top is pink,bottom back has got some brown gt stripes,front bottom has got those yellow shell oil signs.and guys, if you go right back to the tata nano blog,you will see what my name means.
Read me again, Lil’ Bits. Although one wonders whether someone has three times the amount of time if they’re three personalities.
Nah, not wondering at all. Just trying hard to avoid doing something useful, like making a deadline that’s grinning just around the corner, where the chasm starts.
annie,,,deadline?????your not corby or are you?????????????
spandex ballarina boy i always knew you were a cross dresser!ha ha.hmmm shell oil signs at front bottom of tutu,geez matey how many do you need to cover that? oh i get it to cover the thick socks you shoved in there!and if you can’t handle someone having a dig at ya there’s
something wrong.
About time you started getting as much as you give tango.
At least you can have fun with it to & so long as nothing is taken personally. We have seen things go down that path before.
yes GOM,you have agree at times the posts turn in to tearoom conversations,but you an kc did add a bit of colour,and crossdressing is part of motor racing,DEALWITHIT…..!!!!! !
oh behave spandex.you tutu wearing ballarina boy?yer and where is kc now?huh huh he chickened
out cause he didnt know what he got himself into.
Spandy – Kc crossed a line. My family. Besides, I’m not in the business of letting some twit 19yrs old tell me the facts of life & how to drive. Notice his point of him having a clean licence to, he can’t have had his licence for more than 2yrs! Shows just how stupid the little Csucker is.
I wasn’t having a go at you either, I was actually complimenting you on the fact that you can take it as good fun!!
So get over it you bloody great girls blouse.
yes all in good humour and fun.
well, i was just having a tug.
Don’t worry about me. I’m having a sense of humour failure today.
now you put your foot in it spandex!’you were just having a tug’were you meant to say having a
dig?G.O.M.don’t worry we all have those days.at least your man enough to admit that mate.not many men can do that.
I thought I would leave the tugging comment alone. It’s just too easy.
Some tugger in a 4 ton truck ran a red light & t-boned me in the drivers side yesterday. He wasn’t late on the amber either. The light my way had been green for ages & yes it was still green when I went through the intersection. Yes I’m fine. (I know you all worry about me so much!) Can’t say the same for my car!
Just another example of self important people that think the roads were built just for them.
oh yea holdendrip,thats what i meant,how embarasing,im not sure if i can blog anymore now after that,if you dont hear from me anymore bye bye everyone,especially you annemarie,youv been a good friend.
Quick, get the champagne. Oh, sorry Spandex. I’m saving that for when Earth Tosser finally leaves us alone.
Don’t leave us alone here, Span-dear, your contributions have been invaluable, if only for the development of my English skills.
G.O.M., sorry about your car. Hope you hadn’t wasted millions on modifying it!
what you got nailed by a 4 ton truck,cheezes,that sounds like little bits,small world gom,was it a removalist full of blow up dolls.last post bye all.
ok annie ill stay,but you understand my embarresment dont you,gee annie i hope your not learning spelling skills from me.
but then i remember when little bit got his underpants and panadols nicked when he was in his back yard,so i dont feel so bad now.
Hhahaha I read both wheels and top gear mags actulay you should do a blog on that article about those losers on that fiat saving fuel thing i don’t care if my blogs never get put in the mag makes no difrence to me a i bow to know one or lick any ones boot i could never respect myself for that let alone hope for respect from others don’t feel to bad spandau maybe were to controversial i like that better then being a sheeple
“gee annie i hope your not learning spelling skills from me.”
Erm, no, I’m not. And that’s putting it mildly.
Glad you’re staying nonetheless! Am looking forward to being in a Eurovision audience with you some time. You’re not accidently coming to Norway in May, are you?
Was just a stock VN. Have replaced it with another VN. Christ knows why I hate ECU controlled cars but I guess you buy what you can afford. The real car is safe at the spray painters.
Glad your staying Spandex. Who else could I stir up quite like you.
I can’t stir up Annemarie, she’s always nice to me.
Like the attitude Speed. To be honest I don’t even buy the mag so I don’t give a stuff if I’ve been in it or not.

Chick34, seeing as you’re asking, I think you’re an idiot bogun. And I’m surprised you’re clearly drinking mid-afternoon, although it is a Friday so I suppose thats ok.
